Winter.05 Metaphoric product line: Folding knife

Objective was to design a new line of visually distinctive handheld tools in teams of 4 people. The visual language were to be inspired and driven by organic semantics. A catatlogue-style brochure was also made to compliment the product line. ?My group chose to design camping/survival gear. In this line of products, I chose to redesign a common folding knife with formal detailing and colous that compliment the other products. The logo was also designed to represent the product line.
Since shop access was limited, automotive clay was used to further explore in 3D.
