My name is Reuben Sims, an Industrial Design student exploring where design and technology meet. I believe design follows materials, form, and function, the right material in the right form for the right purpose. I'm interested in small-scale manufacturing and how automation and craft can support each other, not compete. Through the ESPER project, I've delved into electronics, coding, and 3D printing to deepen my design understanding. If you're building something that blends technology, design, and craft, I'd love to connect. Find me via Instagram or LinkedIn.
