My name is Alexander Whiting, currently studying a master’s degree in Product Design at Sheffield Hallam University; I have been studying design since an early age. Design is my life and always has been. Whilst at university I have learnt many skills model making, sketch work, testing, CAD, presenting and how to execute my final concepts.
I have always been interested in all disciplines of design, and implementing these areas into my design work. I have been able to put these skills into practice with two live clients, which are Ideal Standard (Bathroom suppliers) and WorldsApart (Toy and furniture design). I was shortlisted to present my work to both companies. WorldsApart who gave me the award of best toy design and offered me a 8 week placement within their 3D development team. This gave me an insight of how the children's toy industry worked and understanding all areas of the team from marketing to R and D. You will find this work in my portfolio.
Photography, Art and Theatre are also passions of mine and has given me different skills which are-
Photography: Seeing creativity through enviroments, finding that special something in my surroundings.
Art: An expression through different artistic media, and trying something new.
Theatre: Giving me the confidence to present and talk to people about potential issues that could be changed by design.
Design lets me express all these factors and more, making my life as a designer very enjoyable.
I hope you enjoy looking through my portfolio of work. If you are interested and would like to contact me, click on the contact me link and my details will appear. My CV is also available on request.
Thank you and enjoy.
