Jazmine Lawrence

Hi there, I'm Jazmine :) I'm an energetic and fun aspiring industrial designer. I enjoy creating products and artwork that feature vibrant colours and free-flowing shapes. My goal as an industrial designer is to make the world a more enjoyable place for everyone. I believe that people want a little something different and fun, so I want to help bring that fun, electric, energetic energy to them through my designs.

The Four Essential Pillars for Design Excellence

The four essential pillars encompass human-centric design approach and the understanding of full-bodied, three dimensional physical interaction of user, product and environment. The projects generate innovative solutions using research-driven, evidence-based designs which focus on the user experience.
