Creative Cleaning




3 initial design concepts for the Creative Cleaning project:

- re-designed sink and drainage space
- drying rack making use of window sill and overhead space/ self-hanging system
- washing gloves with attached scourer pads

Hollow - Model-making







After the initial blue foam model was made, and that I was pleased with the form (other than the dimensions of the actual model needed working out, the blue foam model was pretty much how I imagined it to be in my mind) I went on to start my real model with a block of jelutong. The square top and rotated bottom were drawn on and I began hacking away in the workshop. I figured coping saw and chisel was the way to go, since the form I wanted is quite irregular I didn't want to risk it on the bandsaw. I must admit - it was extremely tedious slowly sawing away little by little. I was quite pleased that it was done within 3-4 hours though!
