An insight into Gravity Sketch’s impact on the modern designer’s workflow
Since it’s launch in September 2014, Gravity Sketch has developed year on year to provide the creative industry with a unique way to bring their ideas to life. What was once a Master’s project from creators Oluwaseyi Sosanya and Daniela Paredes has now grown into a company supported by talented individuals from across the globe with software supported and utilised by the likes of Ford, New Balance, and Adidas.
Unleashing Creativity in Virtual Reality
The Immersive Design Experience
Gravity Sketch provides you with access to the realm of virtual reality to transform your creative process into a tangible, interactive experience. Forget about the limitations of 2D screens; with Gravity Sketch, you're no longer confined to the flat dimensions of traditional design tools. Instead, you're given the ability to sketch, sculpt, and model your ideas in an infinite 3D space. Ever had an idea that you can convey on to CAD or pen-to-paper sketching? Gravity Sketch provides you with the opportunity to do that in a matter of minutes.
Breaking Down the Walls of Conventional Design Processes
For the modern designer, Gravity Sketch acts as a bridge between ideation and creation. It breaks down the walls of conventional design by enabling you to ‘walk’ around your creations, offering a new perspective on a part’s relationships and proportions. This dynamic shift in approach fosters a more intuitive and organic design process, however you see fit to implement it. Some go straight from their design brief into Gravity Sketch; others bring it back in throughout their iterative design process.
Learn by Doing
With such a saturated design software market, each toolkit provides its own method to solve a problem, often causing confusion for many designers to work out which tool to use when and where it is kept. As such, we believe new Gravity Sketch users always need a ‘knee up’ from in-person training to boost their way into the software. Once they know where tools are and why or when to use them, designers intuition takes its course, and they begin to mold the software in a way they see fit, just by playing around. Diving into hands-on projects that mirror real-world design challenges allows you to apply your newfound Gravity Sketch skills in a practical setting. Our courses are structured to provide you with the confidence to tackle complex design projects with finesse.
