Birmingham University student Kornwit Damrongwisetpanit asked us to create a 1:5 scale model of his concept design check out system. The design incorporates several elements that make the system easy for users to navigate; the distinct red to yellow graphic ‘Mexican Wave’ element, which was drawn and printed in-house, guides the user through the process of scanning, bagging and paying for their purchases. The model incorporates a brushed aluminium effect material, which can easily be lasercut and scribed to fine tolerances.

Concept design models for students and young professionals are always welcomed at Amalgam, where we can offer our experience and assistance in creating stunning display pieces and proof-of-concept prototypes. This model was relatively simple, being largely lasercut panels and fine spraywork, but we offer a full vacuum casting service for more complex or functional prototype parts.
