I am Ben McMorran, a fifth-year Product Design and Manufacture (PDM) student with a passion for creating innovative solutions that shape the future. I am particularly fascinated by user interaction and how design influences the way people engage with products. My academic journey and placement experiences have only fuelled my enthusiasm for design, surrounded by like-minded individuals who share my passion, and I am eager to continue learning and growing in the design industry.
I love sketching and developing ideas at the start of a project; exploring the seemingly endless possibilities through brainstorming and conceptualization really excites me. I also relish the challenge of refining the chosen idea into something tangible and manufacturable, paying attention to detail to ensure every aspect of the design is practical for production. Seeing this then captured through a KeyShot render brings a real sense of accomplishment at the end of the project, and I think it is a great way to see the design come to life.
Looking to the future, I am seeking opportunities to continue my passion for design by stepping into the industry. I am looking for a dynamic environment that values forward-thinking design and encourages continuous learning and growth. My ultimate goal is to be part of a team that creates impactful products, blending functionality with aesthetics, and making a positive difference in the world.
