Design RealizationoDeveloping a design

o The research and materials collected as well as your drawings should directly influence your piece.

o Not all materials or info that you have collected or produced will be relevant for the project or design.

o Draw the object repeatedly, changing slightly each time to adapt the form.

o Adapt design to different forms: bracelet, earrings, rings..

Once you have decided how the object will look, you need to consider its construction.
