DESIGN NAME: Trinity
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Drawing Tool
INSPIRATION: Trinity is a handheld drawing tool that is inspired by the shape of a pyramid which includes several triangles with varying angles. This unique shape can provide the user with many different points of view of the main drawing tools at once.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This handheld tool includes a ruler, a set square (with angles of 30, 45, and 60), and a protractor. Due to this special geometric form, it can offer many advantages including: Better control during drawing and being able to lift and move easily. This tool is also degreed before zero in centimeters and inches. In turn, giving a sense of trust in the zero being at the starting point of the plot. In addition, the gradual increase and the contrast of the degrees causes better visual distinction.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: By providing all of the main drawing tools at once, Trinity gives the user more accessibility during the drawing process. In addition to that, the gradual increase of grades and grading before zero in this drawing tool can create a sense of trust. Precision, accessibility, and trust cause the user to use Trinity more in the act of drawing. When used by hand, this tool can give the user a greater understanding of the project and help lead to more creative results.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in August 2022 in Qazvin and finished in April 2023 in Qazvin

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Studies have shown that the use of handheld tools can bring the user closer to the project and lead to a better understanding of the job at hand. The use of handheld tools can also boost creativity in the process.
CHALLENGE: The main challenge with this project was to give the user focus, increased accuracy, and great accessibility while still including the functions promised. Another challenge was to keep the Trinity handheld and not take up too much space. The aim was to reignite the connection with handheld tools and for them to be used frequently again.
