Industrial Design

A showcase of some product design I have been involved in, don't hesitate to contact me at: ricardo@student.usyd.edu.au

1- Tetramóvil for TetraPak, México:
"Interactive Museum Inside a School Bus" (1996-97)

The design brief was to place 14 multimedia kiosks inside a bus so that children could hope on and learn about their environment while they play. We reinterpreted the problem and set to design a unique experience that the children would never forget and thus the learning process would have long term results. Using Tectan, a recycled material made by TetraPak, we devised an interactive environment. Design and production supervision by Fernando Prieto and Ricardo Sosa. Some excerpts follow, including logo, final bus, 3D computer renders, scale models, and the final kiosk:
