I am a student at CCS (College for Creative studies) majoring in Industrial Design. I enjoy every step of the creative process, from brainstorming ideas to presenting the final product. I like to learn new tools and optimize my process and techniques as much as possible. In my free time I like to draw, design characters, and writing stories.

I took my pen and paper sketches and inked them in a program called Clip Studio Paint. It includes ideas for the walkway itself, some features like lighting and materials, and designs for a battery housing to store electricity generated during the day.
The first thing that is produced when I work on a project are sketches. These help me get what is in my mind onto paper and start to narrow down what I would like the final design to look like.
For my ideations on this project I decided to try using a new tool. Viscom AI is a generative AI tool that can help with refinement and editing. In this case, I fed it my sketches to see what it would render from them. I found this useful because even though they are by no mean perfect renders, they do help me think more outside the box and get inspired. The image included is the workspace I created within Viscom to test rendering my sketches.
