Nexus - Collaborative Work Desk

Nexus is a modular, tech-integrated workbench transforming traditional studio desks into adaptive tools for rapid, multi-modal student workflows. ---The Problem - Inadequate Power: 70% of students cite distant outlets as workflow disruptors. - Mobility Issues: 90% find standard desks difficult to move for group work. - Workflow Friction: Rigid tables fail to support switching between sketching, digital modeling, and prototyping. ---Core ID Work - Prototyping: Built physical models to test ergonomics and modularity. - Rendering (KeyShot): Created high-fidelity visuals for material and context communication. - Animation (KeyShot): Produced motion studies to demonstrate functional modularity.
