About me
Graduating Final Year BA (Hons) Furniture & Product Design student from Nottingham Trent University, United Kingdom. Ngee Ann Polytechnic (Singapore) Diploma in Product Design & Innovation alumni. I am a firm believer of the phrase ‘less is more’, and that is often translated through my designs in a variety of ways. Every designer has their own preferred design medium or tools in order to explain and get their ideas across to others quickly. Mine happens to be model-making and CAD. I am adept at multiple CAD/graphic programs and also an eager learner of new programs that would be beneficial for ideation, visualisation or presentation purposes. Throughout my years of study in NTU, I have conducted research and written several reports on sustainability topics including green/ethical consumerism in my second year and a 7000 word dissertation titled 'Evaluating The Effectiveness of Design for Longevity, Emotional Durability and Behavioural Steering In The Fashion & Apparel Industry' in final year. When I am not designing or making products, I can be found doing some toy photography outdoors. Contact - Email: joyyapdesign@gmail.com Twitter: @joyyapdesign Instagram: @joyyapdesign
