My design Career


I wanted to become a designer because I have always had an interest in the design field.  In high school I did textiles for my hsc because design and technology wasn’t offered at my high school. Textiles taught me design elements and principles that every designer for anything should know. Having to do a design subject and learning things such as the design process I realized how much I wanted to be a designer for my future career. 

With my sister having already studied fashion design I didn’t want to go down the same path. So I did research on what other design careers that were offered. I finally came across industrial design and realized it was a perfect fit due to it incorporating almost everything and anything you could design.  The more i learn from this course the more I grow to really enjoy and love industrial design.

 Initially I started of at UWS penrith studying design and technology which was a 3 year course. Due to my successful first semester I decided to give unsw a chance and see if I could make it into a well-known and established uni.  I wanted to go to unsw because I think the learning opportunities would be greater and I also think that I would be exposed to a better learning environment here as well. With also the influence of my friend whose cousin studied industrial design at unsw and said it was a very good course  I believed unsw would push me forward and help me into my future of design.

 I hope that this course would lead me into design field and let me design products for major companies. I would love to design furniture and pieces of art that can be used or just looks amazing in a home. I would also love to work overseas looking at the cultural influences of design and possibly learn more about design. I also hope that I will be successful in design and with not only just designing products I could possibly enter textiles and look at many different areas of design.
