WELCOME TO MCDOWELL DESIGN
MY QUALIFICATIONS:
My name is Lachlann McDowell. I am a recent Industrial Design Graduate of RMIT University in Melbourne, Victoria and founder of McDowell Design. I specialise in the design and development of everyday products and clothing. Usually with a sporting or athletic flavour. I started this company as a passion project to help convey stories and break the steriotype that non professional sporting clubs have to accept wearing cookie cutter style uniforms. One of my favourite things to do is is to work with interesting clients and companies, translating their unique stories and helping solve their problems by turning them into effective designs that engage both the users and those surrounding it. I sincerely hope you enjoy the work I have provided for you below and would love to hear from you in regards to your future projects.
Kind Regards,
Lach

OSAAT is acronym meaning “One Step At A Time” but also translates to “You can” in Finnish and is my university honors project. It is a footwear system focused on creating healthy habits and promoting movement in people over the age of 40 by creating a shoe that is tailored to their needs and connecting them with similarly abled athletes in their local areas.
In 2022 I completed my internship at Katapult Design in Fitzroy. The project I completed was designed in acordance of the design competion regarding the making of the MPavillion Chairs for that year. This was my entry.
THroughout the course of my degree, I came up with a range of CAD renders for a multitude of different projects. They Included shoes, sunglasses, a solar cooker a safety peeler and a redesigned iron. They are all compiled here!
