Research
A number of sources were researched to develop a better knowledge and understanding of the camping industry and the people that engage in car camping activities.
Laser cut plywood and foam were used to develop a better understanding of overall form. This allowed me to better conceptualisation of the shape in a quick and easy way, while focusing on favourite sketches to understand them in a proper context.
