As working from home has increased since the COVID-19 lockdowns, there is a genuine need for furniture that is office/work friendly and can be multi-purpose in a home. My major design project will address this issue as I will develop a piece of furniture that will convert from a modern coffee table into a work-from-home desk with an attachable side cabinet. I will also integrate and incorporate a range of modern technology in my design to ease working from home. The interior of the cabinet will also be customisable to a person's liking.

The purpose of my dollhouse design is to help meet the needs of children with ASD, and incorporate that into one space that encourages mental and tactile stimulation and growth. The goal is to make this a product that helps a child learn, grow, and emotionally regulate. I plan to meet these needs by building a dollhouse that encourages an ergonomic relationship. My product consists of various rooms filled with items that the children can engage with. Underneath, there will be a considerable amount of space for the storage of all smaller items, this makes transportation and tidiness much easier.

Young children nowadays are slowly losing their fine motor skills and sensory awareness due to technology, but the Fix & Feel Puzzle board is here to fix that. The Fix & Feel Puzzle Board is an interactive and educational toy designed for children aged 2-6 to develop fine motor skills, sensory awareness, and problem-solving abilities. It features textured puzzle pieces, magnetic connections for a satisfying snap, and vibration feedback when pieces are correctly placed. The board is the perfect tool for parents seeking an educational yet entertaining toy for their kids.

In rugby, injuries are common and have the potential to impact all parts of a player's body. Protection is not holistic to the body, and its support ends on the field. To combat this, I am aiming to protect additional areas such as the neck and Chest with enhanced comfort and protection, whilst also minimising impact to the player's ability to play. However, I aim to enhance protection and understanding off the field, too. By adding sensors to my design, players can understand the parts of their body that are taking excessive impact before they get injured or worse.

I am working on a innovative solution to a daily struggle—finding a place to charge devices while enjoying outdoor spaces. As a student, I often want to study in parks/outdoors, but the lack of charging options keeps me stuck indoors. My idea is a cost-effective, solar-powered bench attachment that brings sustainable charging to public seating. However, I need help figuring out how to efficiently connect solar panels to a battery and then to charging outputs. How can I ensure optimal energy storage and seamless power delivery? Any insights on wiring, energy conversion, or component selection would be greatly appreciated!

A collection of adaptive clothing for children with disabilities or temporary impairments, designed to foster independence. Inspired by my struggle getting dressed when I injured my ACL. This struggle meant a lot of independence was stripped away, independence is essential for children to develop and mature. Using magnets, children are empowered to become self-sufficient when changing, boosting confidence and fostering a sense of inclusion. It supports their development by combining functionality with innovation to enhance their quality of life. The purpose is to create a practical and empowering solution that strengthens independence and emotional growth for children facing physical challenges.
