3D Modelling Software SOLIDWORKS

As a product design student, it is important to be able to create 3D models to visualize the desired design. This exercise did a great job introducing me into the 3D shaping and rendering world. It tought me how to practice building real life objects and stack them together into one whole model. Following up

I used the software Solidwokrs Visualize (CAD) to render the entire file as well as fitting it into various background to adjust lighting and persepcitves.

We are expected to create a better future, so why not act?

The motivation for this project was based off the term resilience and how to spread awareness towards a more critical thinking as well as popular topics like climate change, air pollution, pandemics, and etc.

The assignment was to create a full brand out of scratch including designing the shirt, sourcing fabric, developing shirt patterns and sewing it all together. Our design is available on etsy and on our website veerkraxt.

We are Veerkraxt, a shirt brand from Austria.

Why are we Veerkraxt?

Because we stand for strength and resilience. Veerkraxt means resilience in Dutch and we need resilience to stand up to climate change, pandemics, etc. We must fight together and spread this message. That’s why we make t-shirts that we sew, print and design from materials discarded by commercial industries. This means that we meet all the requirements for a resilient shirt, as our process steps are totally transparent, so Veerkraxt in its own way - and should remind everyone that taking the first step into a more resilient world is not that difficult.
