A description of your project. What will it do?

The monitor stand is exactly what it is, it’s meant to raise your monitor up to eye level to prevent slouching. It will be better for individuals with bad backs or neck pain.

What will it look like?

I imagine this to be made from a wood/cork board for appearance and easy assembly. The length would be 15 inches long with a depth of 8 inches and a height of 5 inches.

Who is the target audience for your project?

The audience will be individuals who have a second monitor who works from home or in the office and need the additional raised support.

What technologies does your project incorporate?

Technologies will include Tinkercad using a laser printer. It will also include a light source on the shelf.

Describe your step-by-step plan for the completion of this project. Obviously, some plan is theoretical now since we don’t have access to the equipment. How do you think you would have done it if you did have access?

First step is create the top board on which the monitor will stand. This portion has the most points for assembly. Second will be the legs of the for the board which includes 2 longer legs, followed by 2 smaller legs at the back with a large gap for space for cords. 3rd will be shelf within the unit that will serve as a space for either paper or additional storage. You can also store up to a 13-inch laptop underneath to enable a cleaner workspace on the desktop.

 

Include sketches and diagrams.

What is the name of the object?

Pink Flamingo

Describe what the object looks like. Who designed it?

Given its grand look, it might something you see in Marie Antoinette holding while she sips away the French fortunes on Dom or Bollinger. The object is a goblet, but if you look closely, you might see a flower, with a small flamingo using it to lean against, perhaps even hide among the flowers to camouflage itself.

Is it one of a kind or a limited edition?

One of a kind.

Is the manufacturer listed?

No, it was designed and made by

The designer is Fritz Dreisbach

What is this object supposed to do?

The object is meant to be a decoration. However, if need be, you could potentially use this to hold liquids and serve it.

Is the function of the object clear from how it looks?

In terms of its function, I believe it’s clear because it’s a goblet, but goblets can be used for more than one purpose depending on the user rather than the artist.

Do you think this object functions successfully at what it is supposed to do? Why do you think that?

I think this item does function well. Although it’s meant to be something to preserve, I think the designer did a nice job of creating something that had multiple uses.
