2018 Winner
“Deflextion was designed to push the boundaries of how to make a solid object appear as if it is bending or curving in an unnatural way. I cannot wait to see my project come to life at the exhibition. I hope my piece helps to expose me to the design world and captures the eyes of other industrial design professionals.”
