Friend challenged me to enter into a weekly design drawing challenge but I think I’m late! Oldie but goodie anyhow. 🌌

Tomorrow’s my industrial design thesis final! It’s been a long journey and I can’t wait to share all the awesome details later this week! In the meantime here’s a look at the back of my mixed reality glasses for space missions. 🌔🌎

While I’ve had to toss many concepts in completing my thesis (more coming soon!), they were learning experiences I won’t soon forget. Here’s one that you won’t see as part of my final but looks cool nonetheless.

Love how much sugar-maple maintains a high resolution finish during fabrication. Many people thought it was 3D printed!🌔🎸 #moonguitar #lunar #moonsurface #industrialdesign #photooftheday #vsco #postthepeople #pursuitofportraits #designinspo #designporn #designlovers #designblog #prettythings #designyourmind #fineart #designinspiration #designbyme #industrialdesignstudent #designing #designed #designideas #guitar #guitarporn #customguitar #customguitars #industrialdesigner #cca @nasajohnson @nasagoddard @nasa @cacollegeofarts @danielarsham #designbyme #designinspiration #designing #designed #photodaily #customguitars #designinspo #customguitar #fineart #guitarporn #designideas #industrialdesignstudent #customguitars #designporn #designyourmind #prettythings #photooftheday #industrialdesign #moonguitar #guitar #vsco #designblog #productdesign #industrialdesigner #productdesigner #designlovers

Had to take a breather from this project but I finally took some photos!
All done but I feel like I could make a few more. Any takers? 🌔🎸
