Building Development



This is the made up wooden stand and rod to support the mood rings. Unfortunately due to the mood ring idea being my plan B, I left getting the mood rings till quite late. For some reason there is a serious lack of mood rings in the Wellington region, so i was only able to get my hands on 5 mood rings. Also these are all different sized mood rings so i had to taper the rod in order to allow this. My overall design encourages the user to use their right hand so in the rod design i made the right side slight thinner to make it easier and more comfortable for the user. For the rod colour i had to decide on a neutral colour. After playing around with the mood rings, i found the colours they gave off were not that bright and in some cases very dark. So i chose white as my colour for the rod. That way any dark colours given off by the mood rings wont be lost by the white background.
