Shower unit Project

The project that gave me insomnia! Honestly I was up day and night trying to get this project done to a good standard. I wanted this project to be my best yet, and by doing so worked my bloody arse off!

The brief was to restyle a existing shower unit which was already on the market and manufactured by Triton. The shower unit would use its original internal components but with a restyled fascia. The unit had to be marketed under a well renowned hair and beauty brand, in this case it was Vidal Sassoon. The company had identified an opening for an extension to their existing hair care product range and wish to develop a domestic electric shower unit. Vidal Sassoon represented top of the range salon quality hair products with a wealth of experience in the industry which matched no other, it was this I wanted to capture in my design.

Its the best feeling when you finish a project that you have put so much effort into you really feel like you have accomplished something at the end.  This project was so much better than the last one, in which I had to design a Mousetrap. My heart just was not in Mousetrap project, I cant really say why, but I suppose as a designer sometimes you do not have the choice and the luck to always get great briefs in industry. The image above shows my final concept which I rendered on Solidworks, a 3D modeling program.
