Hello, my name is Samuel McClellan and I’m an Industrial Designer.
I’m a graduate from Brunel University with a 1st Class Honours BA
in Industrial Design and Technology, aswell as spending a year at
Industrial
San Francisco State University studying Product Design.
I’ve always had a strong desire to be a designer and to create

change through means of design. From taking drawing classes
at a young age, I’ve had the ability to express my creativity and
design thinking on paper and this is where my passion in design
lies. I apply a very thorough and holistic design process throughout
my work and am drawn to areas such as humanistic and inclusive
design. When I say I want to create change, I ultimately want to
design to help people and am not seeking to create a name for
myself through products that bear no real purpose in life. I want
my designs to have meaning and to change the way people go
about their daily lives for the better. I believe in timeless design and
hope to achieve greater sustainability in a products life through
means of design.

8. Pivot
Kettle.
Arthritis can reduce motor capability in people’shands, resulting in
difficulty performing basic tasks in the kitchen, such as using a ket-
tle. Redesigning ‘domestic water processing’ to remove exclusion
due to physical impairments should not carry stigmatism. In fact,
an‘inclusive’ product can carry usability benefits for everyone. The
Pivot Kettle can improve people’s kitchen experience by address-
ing water filling, lifting, carrying and pouring. It does this byoffering
a non-prescriptive handle design, providing posturally neutral hand
positions to relieve physiological stress.
Iterative development alongside physically impaired people pro-
vided a rich context for a relevant solution that appeals to a broad
market. Furthermore, the design principles of the Pivot Kettle are
ready for extension into other water products.

20 21

12. The design of the cross handles incorporates a rotational limiter
mechanism at each pivot point which provides the user with a
greater sense of security when using the kettle when limiting the
level of forward rotation. Torsion springs placed inside the rotary
limiter mechanism, automatically retract the kettle back to its original
position if accidently let go of. The springs open up during pour-
ing and close back when the front handle is released. A soft close
dampener was integrated into the design to prevent the front
handle from snapping back into place and shocking the user.
Iterative development in prototyping through to user testing fuellled
the design process and was vital to the overall design solution of
the project.

14. Future
concept
for Wrangler.
Flash floods, hurricanes, tsunamis, earthquakes and forest fires are
common but devastating occurrences. The people who are worse
affected are often urban dwelling civilians with no concept of basic
survival skills. These disasters strip people’s lives down to a primitive
level and their daily struggles become based around primary needs,
such as how they will be sheltered.
Wrangler embodies the concept of the true survivor; the individual
who is able to meet his or her needs through knowledge and raw
physical capabilities. Wrangler empowers survivors of natural disas-
ters by providing them with the necessary tools they need to begin
rebuilding their lives.

16. The Wrangler Smoke Mask responds to the post-natural disaster
effects of bushfires. The respiratory conditions exacerbated by the
smoke and haze produced from fire results in hazardous condi-
tions. The mask aims to prevent health risks by providing residents
with vital inhalation protection from toxic fumes and dust.
High risk areas will be automatically supplied with the mask during
a residential meeting that highlights the vunerable areas of the
town/city. Those caught in sudden disaster will recieve the mask
from fire fighters dispatched across the area. The mask sits within
a protective leather pouch that slips neatly inside a wallet, purse or
pocket. The mask folds out revealing two ear straps that attach to
the face and offers maximum performance of up to three uses.

17. Smart
Water
Meter.
A “Smart Water Meter” aimed at reducing the amount of water
consumed within a domestic environment. The intelligent display
uses Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) to record the amount of
water used at different daily time intervals and provides the user
with consumption data that they can upload to their computer as
well as receive tips on how to reduce their water footprint.
The concept is the result of a group project at Brunel University
and was designed in response to the RSA brief ‘Make Something
Disappear’, which required the use of design to eliminate waste,
over production, or excessive consumption.

received a high level of

brings glory holes to the home. The flatpack ‘sexcessory’ is ideal
for couples who enjoy the naughty and adventurous side of sex.

26. Design for
Manufacture.
The project required working in a team of 4 to carefully select an
existing children’s toy or piece of office equipment to re-design.
The re-design not only involved introducing a new concept but a
concept that was designed for manufacture, resulting in producing
detailed component drawings of each component. Each teams
drawings were passed onto another who went on to manufacture
five identical copies of the design.
My initial concept of a children’s push-along wooden car was taken
forward. The design integrated cam mechanisms into the wheel
axis, that when pushed along would bob the passengers up and
down creating visual excitement for the child.
The passengers were made up of different shapes and required
the child to slot each one into its correct hole. The design aimed to
be intellectually aswell as emotionally stimulating.

In China, the word for ‘8’ is assocated with wealth and prosperity;
two words that are heavily embodied within the brand Bentley. The
concept plays on this Chinese perception of the number ‘8’ by
incorporating the idea into delicate features of the cars design. For
example, within the embroidery of the car there would be a gap
after every 8th stitch.
