Designing bespoke interiors for all sorts of projects.Based on drawings from architects and interior designers, I would develop them further with the client. A lot of ideation was required to manufacture and make things work while keeping the original vision.All of this is hand in hand with 3D modelling, architectural and technical drawings.After approval, I would prepare drawings for production and manage the production closely with wood and metal factories, as well as external suppliers.I also did some on-site measurements as well as manage small projects.

Designing thoughtful furniture.Working at a furniture design studio with a small team, we would receive briefs from potential clients and create ideas and sketches , that would make the basis for the CAD modelling of our furniture concepts. After that, we rendered and presented a handful of possible designs for the brands to decide if they would like to pursue.Once the client had chosen which ones would fit their market, we would then move along with technical details.

The work I've done for Martifer was in the wind turbine industry, specifically the tower itself (metallic structure). The client did the engineering work and sent it over to production - my job consisted of evaluating the client's BOM + technical drawings + engineering specs, while modelling (Solidworks) the tower with all its components (platforms, ladder,lift,etc.) and preparing it for production. Anything that seemed off in the clients specs was reported to them and changes were suggested. After that, I would take my BOM from the CAD and prepare lists with all the components needed by supplier, for the purchasing team. I would often help my colleagues with technical drawings as well.
