Déjà vu
éjà vu started in a long journey of testing and concept work.The final product is a voyage starting with one product and finish-ing with something completely different. There are many reasons for this concept refinement, target audience and personal taste...

Déjà vuOnce the main concept was chosen, I looked at nature ways of growing trees and different types of plants for inspi-ration.
Concept Development

Déjà vuCompetitor analysis The ideas started as a stool, making a stool different and unique.
RMIT INDUSTRIAL DESIGN | DESIGN ELECTIVE|CYBERCRAFT|S3284578|SOFIA QUINTANILLA|2012
Déjà vuThese were my core aims at the beginning at of the design process; even tho the concept changed I wanted to stick to the same core aims throughout the project.
Unique Innovative Affordable

Déjà vu
The audience targeted would be people that like a twist in furniture, that are open for new and unique ideas. As well as those who have a special interest in modern manufacturing processes.

Déjà vuTree table development
At this point I changed from making a Stool to a table, Being the reason that a table is much more likely to sell alone and people tend to appreciate the design more than a stool. It’s also more of a centre piece making it more special. “ “

Déjà vuTree table development
These were my initial illustrator tree de-signs, with these I wanted to test a rough idea of how the table would look.
I wanted to use birds on the birds to make the tree table look more realistic.
There are two types I wanted to test, the 2 part slot and the 6 part slot.

Déjà vuTree table developmentLife experiences/tables turning
At this point of my design process, the design lacked my personal touch. It would just be another table out there. After speaking to other designers I worked out to include my life experiences into the piece. After living in CentralAmerica for over 10 years I didn’t find it difficult to relate to my child-hood memories, all the good times and bad times. At this point my design project turned over and I looked at it from a different perspective. I started sketching all my memories out to come up with the final design.

I started looking a tree forms and how I could add some of those forms to my design.

The bottom branches and the other branches are too thin and very likely to snap due to not having any sup-port.

FINAL TABLE DESIGN
I like all the ideas and memories I had, so I decided to add little pieces of my stories onto the table, small details that would make people remember their own stories lived in nature. Adding many con-cepts to create on design.

- 6mm Etching-6mm Acrylic cut- Polished
Acrylic is a beautiful material however the type of acrylic I wanted was an electric fluro acrylic.The main idea was to etch on the top of the acrylic giving it that glowing effect were ever it etched, and cut the a perfectly round circle to have the beautiful glowing edge. The acrylic I purchased was extremely hard to get, due to it being very rare for manufactures to have; since it’s not use very often it’s considered an exclusive acrylic.

Déjà vuMaking Processes
The reason why I choose laser cutting as the technology I wanted you use, was because the options are limit less. There is so much you can do, and it’s also a new technology that some people have never heard of, making it interesting for them to know and a great tool for you to use.

My first laser cut model didn’t come out like I expected it, when I tried to slot it through it wouldn’t fit, due to it being too tight. So I had to change the dimensions to make it wide enough for it to fit, also taking in mind the primer and the spray being applied.
