E Ink, an e-Paper Display Company.
Prism Product
[E Ink technology is found in the Amazon Kindle]
Worked on a range of strategic design projects centered on E Ink’s Prism reflective, color-changing, architectural materials. By developing a clear understanding of stakeholders, brands, trends, and market dynamics, I contributed to the effort to create elegant, tangible product experience solutions while also incorporating customer feedback. I built models and exhibits that were shown at various trade shows over the course of my time there. Contributions detailed below.
coral tapestries
skyline flower: neocon 2018
Designed and manufactured flowers using Prism, acrylic, a metal flower. Depending on the animation, these could be used as aesthetic clocks.
Cooler/light state
cooler/dark state
Created long wrapping prototype using Prism with an overlay to show condensation in the light state.
This project required color matching iteration using large sized plotters.
magnetic writeable prototype
18”x24” magnetic writeable demo used for customer presentations.
In addition to the Prism work, contributed to tablet program. Designed and constructed custom frame and backing to house the electronics and a button to switch the ink.
workspace + project ideation
magnetic writeable stylus
Developed a stylus for use with magnetic writeable ink. Featuring two writing styles, the stylus can either provide a thinner legible line, or a thick line for shading.
