Gokul VenkateshI keep dreaming of a different world where everything is done in a different design and a unique style. After a lot of zealous and keen exploration I could rediscover my self as an Industrial Designer. I identify myself as a BULTURE (a flying bull), superior in design and wild in thought. Design is all about what I have dreamt of. My interest lies in interactive and innovative products and vehicles. “GREEN DESIGN” is where my focus lies for further ex--ploration and progress
Innovate in your thought and replicate your thought...it’s Design.

THESIS PROJECT(On Going)
During the initial phases ofPlanning, system study and user centric analysis, I laid more emphasis on capturing the user adoptability to the existing workspace and the way an user interacts with it.
This was done through capaturing real life scenarios in form of videosand photographs,questionaires, interviews,focus group discussions.
Bench marking, trend forecasting and ergonomicstudy was also done duringthese phases.
A good exploraton duringthese phases laid strongdatabase for further phasesof my project.

INDUSTRIAL DESIGNERWith the inputs from the initial phases, I am going through concept development phase and with one more semester’s time being left in my project, I will be going through Detail Design, Validation and prototype phases.
The sketches in this pages showcase a glimpse of few rough exterior concepts done during basic exterior iterations exercise which was done as a warmup exercisebefore proceeding to the interior space conceptualization.
The Interior workspace with which I will be comingup will be a milestone for contemporary workspaces and will beexclusive for Indian user.

FORM EXPLORATION
FORM EXERCISE is a thought provoker which needs a lot of understandingof the context to give life to a new form. I have taken the characters of thechess - their expression and their movement to bring in forms accordingly.
FORM EXERCISEExpression to form
This is the work done in Expression exercise which is a part of form exercises. In this the expression related to different chess coins is dipicted and transformed into a visual form.
I have used the combination of wood and aluminium wire to Visually show the expression related to each chess coin. In the image - from left to right - Pawn, Knight, King, Queen, Rook and Bishop.
