Gaia Lemmens

Graduated in Industrial Design from Strate in 2018 and self-employed since 2017, I have had the opportunity to work with small and large companies in various fields:

- Design of furniture ranges and urban lighting

- Connected object design

- Children's playground design

- Lighting design

- Mobile application and website design

- Logo and branding design

- Illustration (digital and print)

- Craft/upcycling projects (woodworking, textiles, and resin)

- Prototyping of lighting for public spaces

🔹 My Methodology

1/ Research

Each assignment has its specificities. This stage allows for a full understanding of the story and challenges behind the project to define the specifications.

· Definition of intentions

· Questionnaires

· Mood boards

· Benchmarking

2/ Creative Thinking

I let creativity run free. At this stage, technical details are not addressed, but a reflection on materials and manufacturing techniques is planned to facilitate the next steps.

· Sketches

· Product ecosystem

· Storyboards / usage scenarios

· Color/material palettes

· 3D modeling

· Concept mock-ups

3/ Product Development

Here, the final product is built, and deliverables are determined by the client.

· Technical drawings

· 3D renderings

· Technical exploded views

· Infographics

· Usage scenario

· Functional mock-up

4/ Prototyping & Industrialization Follow-up

Establishing transparent and proactive communication is vital. Once the prototype is validated, manufacturing follow-up will ensure that all project stakeholders are aligned with the constraints.

· Contacting potential partners (France / international)

· Support during manufacturing

🔸I am available to provide occasional support, as well as to collaborate on a project from start to finish. Do not hesitate to contact me, I would be delighted to discuss your project!
