About Me Hello, my name is Cheuk Lui. I’m a 2nd-year industrial design student at San Jose State University. Born and raised in Hong Kong and moved to the United State in 2010. Since I was little, I always have a huge interest in new technology and cars. I found out about industrial design in 10th grade of high-school and fell in love with the major.

My idea of becoming an industrial designer is to design products that push innovation with minimalistic design aesthetics while giving users great secure and convenient experiences as well as improving their daily lives.

OXO Lantern A Night light that gives you a sense of safety and protection.

OXO Lantern Solving The Night Light is for people who often work and stay up at night. The light gives comfort while walking at night without distraction to others.

Why night light is important?

Many people prefer working at night, and it could be difficult for a person to walk in the house without lights on. Our phone would be charging and not available as a flashlight.

Concern For People With Nocturia Nocturia is a disorder and a condition where a person wakes up during the night because of the need to urinate. For people who have Nocturia, their state of mind would be semi-unconscious and dangerous to walk in the house.

Understanding Brand OXO philosophy is to make everyday chores simple. They design all their product with people in mind and design there tools with a universal balance ergonomics ideas with modern aesthetics.

Exploration Sketches I started the sketches with interesting shapes and the OXO ergonomic features in mind. The design starting to become smaller and slimmer as I go through mockups and sketches.

Refinement Sketches

Concave or Convex The Final design came down to concave and convex. The concave design was chosen because of the curvature of humans hands is more concave.

Final Development The Final Shape is tested to be universally fitted. The shape is concaved to fit the hand comfortably.

Stainless Steel dial

Stainless Steel Charging Dock

Features OXO Lantern The OXO Lantern does not have any button. Just pick up and use.

Double layered design to reduce blindness

Brightness Adjustable Dial

Magnetic Charging Station

Night Light Process / Scenario The Night light is built in SolidWorks. Body is print from the Resin Printer, and rest of the parts are printed with PLA 3D printer.

The shape and form are very minimalistic by following the universal philosophy behind the OXO brand. All mock-ups are tested with users to make sure it is not too big nor too small.

To make a balance of ergonomics and design. The top radius is higher than the bottom, the decision is to make sure semiunconscious users less grip strength while holding the light.

The OXO Lantern is a night light with convenience in mind, just pick up and use to give unconscious users an easier experience.

Bike A Race bike design from the ground up in SolidWorks.

SRT Bike

I started off designing the bike from other race cars, and it narrows down to the final design today. The side curve design combines with a muscular fork, inspired from the front end of the Viper.

The Bike is painted with Viper red and gunmetal gray color as an accent. SRT and Dodge logo also apply to the Bike, to represent the GTS-R race car.

(The Bike was built in SolidWorks)

This Bike aggressive main curve gives a forward performance feeling and complements the Viper long hood American supercar aesthetic.

Mouse Redesign A Mouse for gamers and professional alike.

Redesign Inspiration / Sketch My goal is to create a mouse that combines professional and gamers alike. By designing a mouse that blends in the public environment but gives gamers a mouse that satisfies their own gaming device at home.

I started sketching generic looking mouses and lead to interesting ones. While I was closely inspecting the interior of the Mercedes I realize that the use of highquality materials and customization really Compliment the car. I started sketching with the materials used in mind and apply to the final design.

Redesign The Comfort Stealth The Final design of this mouse consists of aluminum, leather, and gunmetal. I created a perfect mouse that satisfies gamers and professional alike. The seamless ambient light gives the overall design a luxurious look. The mouse is also titled at 30 degrees to give the hand a comfortable palm and claw grip.

Smooth Side-to-Side Scrolling

Nappa leather

Subtle RGB Customization

The Comfort Stealth Process The modeling process was very difficult, the mouse itself is detail sculpted that has to be carefully sand off without ruining the overall design.

After testing through mock-ups. The final model was hand sculpted following the final render. It was primed and painted with mouse parts combine together.

Every aspect of The Comfort Stealth design meets users demands for comfort. Whether you use a claw or palm grip, the shape provides lasting comfort for long and intense working or gaming sessions.

Rectilinear Concept Create a form with 3 blocks that convey positive and negative space with dominant and sub-dominant subordinate.

Rectilinear Concept The final Rectilinear has a very dominant side, with a directional look.

The Rectilinear initially had a concept from modern buildings and muscular vehicles. The Rectilinear Gives a floating feel to the overall shapes inspired by today modern buildings. The Rectilinear also has a directional feel from a vehicle.

The Rectilinear had a floating design that represents the idea of the modern buildings design.

The Rectilinear project is my first project at SJSU ID program. It might not be the best project I’ve done but it was the start of something I wanted to do.

Curvilinear Concept Create a three-dimensional form with 2 cuts, that convey flow emotion.

Curvilinear Concept This curvilinear was hugely inspired by the a famous race track and the blade runner police spinner.

The Curvilinear started with ideas of sports cars and race tracks and narrowed down to the Spinner and Circuit de Monaco.

The curvilinear shows my huge interests with blade runner and motorsport. The design had a side view of a police spinner. The top has the outline of my favorite Circuit.

The Curvilinear concept overall gave a flowing look yet complicated aesthetic.

Speedform Concept A Form To Represent Speed!

Speedform Sketches This Speedform project taught me draft angles and the emotion of speed. After the sketches, we need to make a mold for the final.

The Concept was started inspired by an eagle, then I get inspired by Japanese speed trains from a podcast about Japanese speed train design. I combined the two ideas together through sketches.

The overall shape is referenced from Japanese Speed Trains and an eagle in the front.

Egg Drop Project Build a egg protector with limited resources.

Egg Drop Development Egg Drop team project gave us very limited resources to create a product that protects an egg from multi-story high.

(Teammate: John Pham / Sabrina Shell)

This Project uses Adobe Illustrator then uses a laser cutter to assemble the final product.

The Egg Drop passed all the test from 1 - 5 stories high.

Ergonomic Project Redesign sports equipment that helps improve safety or enhances users experiences.

Exercise Bands Inspiration / Sketch I focused on the resistance bands, because of its lack of safety and innovation in the market. As well as the large option of bands you could buy.

Post Senator of Nevada Harry Reid had a long lawsuit with Hygienic corp for losing an eye while using their exercise band

I focused the sketches on the structure and handles, that would improve the user’s experiences, confidences, and safety.

$20 dollar latex band from Amazon. com is weak, unsafe, and create a lack of confident to the users.

Prototype 1 Testing The Prototype uses elastic, nylon, swivel hooks, and 3D printed handles to assemble the prototype 1. In the process, I learned much material and are stretchable fabrics like spandex/polyesters mix.

The final band structure consists of an elastic band wrapped around a latex band to create a durable and safe structure. While building the first prototype, I had a lot of sewing issue because of my lack of knowledge on the sewing machine. The result made the band does not stretch as much I wanted to be.

The testing result gave good constructive feedback and have noted to improve on the final prototype.

The Heads is to prove the damage pressure applying to the head is more spread out with the same force of impact than the initial product.

Original product

Prototype 1

Exercise Bands Process / Scenario The exercise band is made of an elastic band, with metal clips, and printed handles

The modeling process was interesting, and first time using a sewing machine was fun and enjoyable. I would definitely experiment with the different sewing patterns in the future.

The second prototype fixes all problems that the first prototype have. The testing process was improved and gave people a very confident users experiences

This is a safest all in one resistance band that lower accidental users damage. The switchable handles improve the band affordability and improve users experiences.

Thanks for reading.
