Week 9 Blog Exercise – Dimension/Depth/Space

With my focus on Product Design & Development, I noticed that cars have various areas which are all done by product designers.  Both interior and exterior of the car as well as the parts to make it work go through some sort of design process to make it all work together.  The picture above would be an example of designed physical space.  The designers had to design not only the actual objects inside (steering wheel, seats, navigation system, etc.) but also the 3D space inside the car for those object to fit in as well as the enough space for the riders of this automobile to fit as well.  Not only did these items have to fit inside with the riders as well, but the designers also had to make sure there was enough space for people to use and operate such features inside the car.  This pictures shows the dept of how much space you will be expecting to have when inside.  The steering wheel and dashboard seem to be farther away to emphasize a large amount of space and luxury inside.  The perspective shown is also almost dead center in which you can see the boundaries of the space extending behind you almost as if there is a vanishing point inside the car.
