Project Overview

The essence of this work is to demonstrate my user-experience approach to designing an office console. It was motivated by an inspiration to create a retro-modern design engineer's office environment.

The design features a modern office desk with an extension of an adjustable drawing board. All desks in the console system are designed to be self-adjusting based on the user's height to maintain optimal ergonomics.

Design Features

Height-adjustable work surfaces for ergonomic comfort
Integrated adjustable drawing board for design work
Modern aesthetic with clean lines and functional layout
Thoughtful cable management solutions
Modular components for flexible configurations

Design Process

Research & Concept Development

Initial research focused on ergonomic standards for office furniture and the specific needs of design engineers. I studied anthropometric data to ensure the console would accommodate a wide range of users.

Sketching & Ideation

Multiple concepts were sketched exploring different configurations of the workspace. The goal was to balance functionality with aesthetic appeal while maintaining a clean, professional look.

3D Modeling & Refinement

Using SolidWorks, I created detailed 3D models of the console system. This phase included refining the mechanisms for height adjustment and testing the range of motion for the drawing board.
