I want to present you my project and vision of a hand tool - Round trowel
This tool intrigued me with its boringness, oddly enough. I analyzed the shape and ergonomics of other trowels and they lacked aesthetics.
It is this tool that gives us new ideas and the shape of the trowel. And you will not see such a form again.
This project is educational in my college of design in Ivanovo.
The very beginning of the project began with sketches, the search for ideas, new forms and just the same analysis.
To begin with, I took the engineering form and it was already very modern and aesthetic (to be honest, I would like to stop already at the first lits of sketches)
After that, I started already trying to find a new form
In the end, I turned to the shape of the wasp. It most suited just the handle in terms of aesthetics and ergonomics. And the search went on
And in the end, from an ordinary trowel, I came to a round one, so the handle and penel became harmonious.
At the beginning there was an idea to change the panels from square to round, but in the end I abandoned this idea.
Next was the process of working in blender 3d.
And in the end we got such a render.
It should be noted that the trowel is made of plastic with the introduction of a rubber surface.
After the already finished model and sketches, I created a layout of the trowel. It was made partially of plastic (namely, a plate), everything else was made of foam covered with plaster
In some parts the layout was unfinished
After searching and working on the layout, I began to develop graphic design. To begin with, I decided to show the working process of the trowel, how to take it, where it is used, etc.
And the last stage is the complete design from projections to drawings and other data
Hand tool
