exhibition
21 February -18 May 2014
Hydraulic
Tipper
Trailer
Joshua John King
Singleton
High School
Joshua designed a two way hydraulic tipping trailer in order to increase the
efficiency and usefulness of tipping trailers in an agricultural setting.
The trailer can tip both backwards and to the side allowing the user to utilise
a small amount of space and reducing manual handling.
This unique design made the most of recycled materials with the designer
having to buy very few new materials to make his high quality product.
Geodesic Dog House
Justin Armstrong
De la Salle Catholic
College, Cronulla
Justin used the geodesic sphere as inspiration for his design as it is one of
the world’s most structurally sound shapes.
This design allows the dog kennel to withstand the external environment
whilst still being aesthetically pleasing.
Justin’s motivation was to redefine the uninventive dog houses he found on
the market and turn it into something that could be considered functional art.
Vivid Light
Festival
Tess Tavener Hanks
Cheltenham Girls
High School
Tess designed and manufactured a
mobile wearable light design
sculpture for inclusion in the Vivid
Light Festival in 2013.
A variety of innovative processes
were used including laser cutting and
engraving, as well as direct digital
printing.
Creatures of
The Deep
Jasper Fearnley
Oxley College
Jasper used environmentally
sustainable materials to create a
haute couture gown based on
bioluminescent deep sea creatures.
Jasper used Organic Peace silk,
which is animal cruelty free and LED
lights which use minimal energy.
Political eBook
Dennis Nguyen
Ashcroft High School
Dennis observed that a vast
proportion of the young
Australian public do not have
an interest in politics, policies
or policy making.
Dennis has designed this
eBook as way of educating the
young Australian voting public
so that they can make informed
decisions at the polling booth.
The
Fridge Butler
Adele Trebilcock
Trinity Anglican
College, Albury
Adele consulted an Occupational
Therapist when discussing her ideas for
creating a fridge door opening aid for
the elderly.
This device allows a fridge door to be
opened just from the push of a button.
Adele learnt many new skills while
producing her product such as 3D
printing, plastic welding, soldering and
CAD programming.
Self-sanitising
Door Handle
Paul Terrence Cullen
Cranbrook School
Paul’s design comprises of a UVC light which kills
the majority of surface bacteria on door handles
within 10 seconds including golden staph and MRSA.
This innovative device would be a welcome addition
to many public spaces including hospitals and public
bathrooms.
Garden Aid
Katherine Perrior
Danebank
An Anglican School
For Girls
Katherine was inspired to design her device after listening to her own
grandparents express their difficulty with gardening due to poor
mobility.
To address this Katherine incorporated ergonomically designed
kneepads for comfort and an electric jack to enable those with poor
mobility to easily raise themselves from the ground.
GripGo Racing
Kart Hand
Controls
Jaden Daniel Partridge
Alstonville High
School
Jaden was motivated by his interest
in motor sport, where he developed a
product that allowed for full inclusion
of persons with disabilities.
The brake and throttle are controlled
completely from the steering wheel
thus allowing those with dysfunction
in their legs to participate in
Australian Karting competitions.
Flower Costume
Alexis Jade McCaughtrie
Bulli High
School
Alexis designed this garment to be
incorporated as a costume piece in her friend’s
play.
The design process allowed Alexis to develop
her skills in dress making and theatrical design.
A number of techniques were used such as
hand dying the fabric with natural dyes, working
with lace doilies and hand-making flowers seen
on the skirt of the fabric.
Reflective Sport
Apparel
Sarah Irwin
Aquinas Catholic
College
Sarah observed there was a gap in the market for
stylish ‘safety sportswear’ after having concerns
from her experiences of walking in suburban areas
at dusk.
As a result she created four sportswear garments
incorporating geometric reflective strips that
became part of the aesthetic as well as having the
function of increasing the safety of the wearer.
TC Creations
Handplanes
Thomas Campbell
Sutherland Shire
Christian School
The purpose of this project was to make retail quality, high
performance body surfing handplanes aimed at filling a gap in the
marketplace.
Criteria for success established by Thomas required that the design be
lightweight, portable, durable, replicable and be commercially viable
Switch Blade
Aidan Cameron
Vincentia High
School
Aidan believed that all stand up paddlers would
benefit from an easier, faster and less strenuous
way to use stand up paddleboards.
In response to this, Aidan created a new paddle
with innovative handles which eliminates the
need to switch paddling positions and promotes
a more efficient stroke.
Industrial Noxious
Weed Sprayer
Joshua Mason
Wyong Christian
Community School
Joshua’s device is designed to kill Lantana, one
of Australia’s worst environmental weeds. Its
strength lies in its ability to target difficult to reach
locations and sensitive rainforest areas.
The weed sprayer uses a splatter gun technique
powered by a lithium battery.
Joshua’s inspiration came from his family’s 400-
acre property in Dungog NSW, where Lantana
infestation is a major problem.
ZED-13 Music
Performance
Controller
Zubin Nanavati
Newington
College
Zubin created a device that allows the subtle control of computer
music through the use of motion sensors, button matrixes, camera
modules and advanced micro-processing algorithms all contained
in a single package.
Not only can the user control the music more intuitively but the
audience can also see more emotional control from the DJ rather
than someone just pressing buttons.
Reborn – a range of
backpacks
William Russell
St Gregory’s College
Campbelltown
William designed a range of backpacks for young men from recycled and
reused fabrics such as old shirts, jeans, bedspreads and football jumpers.
Inspiration for this project came from William’s interest in sustainable
living and his observation of a gap in the market for unique backpacks for
young men.
SmartVac
Oliver Kleyn
Newcastle
Grammar School
Oliver designed and created a new form of vacuum generation that is
more efficient, powerful, durable and affordable than the traditional form
of vacuum generation.
This was achieved through the use of the ‘Venturi effect’ in conjunction
with an innovative auto-cycling system that works using compressed air
from a compressor.
Steampunk Lamp
Daniel Glenn Stubbs
Glenwood
High School
Daniel created this lamp in
response to a client brief
which asked for an industrial
styled lamp.
This design provides the
opportunity for artistic
creativity combined with
household practicality.
Sustainable
Open-plan
Beach House
Nicole Alysha Ling
Abbotsleigh
Nicole designed a sustainable open-plan beach house for clients using
the structural frames of their existing beachside cottage.
She created a modern design with many sustainable features such as
fireplaces for heating and the use of water and elevation for cooling.
During the design process Nicole learnt how to use new technologies to
implement her design including AutoCAD and laser cutters.
Personal Safety
Overboard System
Matthew Anthony
Alfonzetti
Epping Boys
High School
Matthew created an electronic device that will quickly alert the
driver of a Jet Ski (or other watercraft) when a passenger falls
overboard without the need to turn around whilst driving.
The overall process has taught Matthew a lot about electronics,
safety issues, new technologies and processes – such as 3D
printing and time management.
Coopers Store
Application
Christopher Harpas
Cronulla High
School
Christopher made this application for the furniture factory, Coopers Store.
A motivation to develop this design solution was the identified need to
improve market advertising at Coopers Store.
This application will provide better communication for Coopers Store as
well as becoming a tool where staff and customers can communicate with
greater ease.
