Golf Ball Stencil Product Design Unit Overview
Design Brief
The school's students regularly compete with other schools in golf. A parent has donated $500 to buy personalised golf flags, bag tags, and team logo golf balls. The coach has asked if the Design Communication 2 class could design a logo for the team and create a stencil of the team mascots for marking the golf balls. Similar to this idea: http://www.customgolftags.com/
Problem
So what does the class need to Design and Produce for IASAS Golf?
- Product to hold golf ball as stencil is applied,
- Simplified Logo for each team
Research
Research existing golf ball stencils…see how other people make them. The Design Brief has 1 example, try to find more.
How will you apply a logo to a curved surface without ‘warping it’?
Design
Based on your research and the skills that you learned last semester, hand sketch 3 different ideas for:
- Product to hold golf ball as stencil is applied,
- Simplified Logo for each team
Develop
Choose an idea and create a 3D model of it using CAD software.
Make
Print your developed designs and Test. Repeat Develop and Make stages until satisfied with the results
Test & Evaluate
Reflect on the design and make process for this project – what can you learn from the experience and use to improve for next time.
