For Bathers and Blooms, an emerging fashion brand based in Toronto, I designed a functional hardware piece that serves as an iconic element for their bathing suits. This metal piece not only holds the bathing suit together but also adds a distinctive touch to the overall design.
What did I do
-
2D Sketches, began by creating 2D sketches based on the client's initial idea, laying the foundation for the design.
-
3D Low-Poly Previews, iterated through four different versions, incorporating client feedback to refine the design.
-
3D High-Poly Detailed Previews, with materials to help visualize the final product accurately.
-
Sizing for Fabrication, given the hardware's role in clothing, it was crucial to meet specific size requirements. Detailed sizing was provided to ensure precise fabrication.
​
-
Augmented Reality Previews, exported the 3D object with true-to-life scale and converted it into USDZ and GLB files. This allowed the client to interact with and visualize the product on web and mobile platforms in augmented reality (AR).​
