Jason Chang

Hello! I’m Jason and I’m an industrial student studying at the Rhode Island School of Design. I love to work with my hands and fabricate, but I’ve always had the urge to learn new things and explore other paths that have not so tangible final results. Design to me is a never-ending adventure, it lives off of the old, the new, the challenges, and most importantly, the people. Please let me know what you think of my work and don't be a stranger! Feel free to contact me if you have any questions!

Industrial Design project by Jason Chang

Pebbles

Foam, Wood, Fabric

Pebbles brings a new perspective to the traditional mental health device. With is earth-toned color contrasting its playful form, Pebbles established a new typology of office design. Containing mental health devices involving light, noise, and touch, the pebbles line brings an uplifting quality to any office.

Butters

Foam, Joint Compound, Paint

Made in my prototyping form class, the assignment was to make a series of shapes that related to a word that you were assigned. The forms had to be made out of blue foam and finished with spray paint. Having the word “playful” I chose to carve round creature like shapes that were painted in a fun yellow color.

Cast Iron Llama

Cast Iron

Sand-cast locally at Cumberland Foundry, a third-generation foundry, the llama weighs in over 80 pounds and is completely solid throughout.

Laun

Wood (cedar), Metal, Foam, Fabric

Laun is a lounge chair inspired by lawn furniture and living room furniture. I wanted something that could be rugged yet modern, but most of all comfortable.

Cubby

Plywood, Metal

The Cubby is a desk storage unit designed for my industrial design building. The Cubby unit features many space-saving and agile designs to make the workplace more efficient.

Volvo Watering Can

Foam

A project for my prototyping form class, the prompt was to make a watering can that was inspired by a certain company. The goal was to learn how to design and construct a product to fit into that aesthetics of said company.
