Sketching

With my idea set on creating a hygienic cup sleeve with a handle, I generated the following sketches below for a glass cup. The project's guidelines asks us to use only cut and formed acrylic sheets, aside from bonding materials to create our final product prototype. The last time I created anything was probably when I was five years old playing with legos. Because this was my first time ever using laser cutters and acrylic sheets, I tried to think of ways of how to create pieces of the cup handle that could be glued together or heat formed to become a certain shape. I decided that I would begin by first creating the cup sleeve, and then making a hole in it for the handle to go into. The handle would be created separately through various 3-D shapes and then would be attached to the cup sleeve.
