Hello! I’m June Kim. I’m a designer, engineer, and an artist currently studying at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). I like to get my hands dirty and build things whether it’s a complex lighting units using Ardunio or ceramic cups with traditional Asian ink paintings.
I will be graduating in Feb. 2017 with a Bachelor degree in Mechanical Engineering with concentration in Computational Design and minor in Architecture and Music.
This is just a sample of my work. For more extensive portfolio or for a copy of my resume, please feel free to contact me.

LIGHT FIXTURES

Altering LightThis floor lamp was created for a final project in Creative Design Prototyping class. Most light fixtures in the market uses an electrical dimmer to change the brightness of the lamp. I thought it would be interesting to have a mechanical lamp shade that can control the brightness of the light emitted.
The design was inspired from a Hoberman sphere and a crane arcade game. The frame of the lamp shade and the stand was made from laser cut Masonite sheets. The fabric was thick cotton sheets sewn with a sewing machine. The mechanism that controls the movement of the lamp shade was 3D printed in ABS plastic.

Diva Lamp ExplorationThis hanging lamp was made for a project in Computational Making: Light and Motion class. The class emphasized on the process of making and learning through imitation, iteration and improvisation. The original design of the Diva lamp was done by Northern Lighting.
First, I tried to imitate the original design by using thin chip-boards and wires. Then I made multiple iterations that changed the materials from chipboard to corrugated plastic sheets, dimensions or light sources. Lastly, I used corrugated card-board sheets to create the lamp and redirect the light. As an improvisation, I added an inner layer to accommodate the design changes I’ve made from the original product.

Modular ProTOYtypeNo matter how old people are, everybody loves toys. We all played with LEGOs to build spaceships or famous architectures. This project was for a final project in Introduction to Geometric Modeling class. The requirements for the project was that it had to inspire users to touch the objects, playful, and had to be made by casting. I wanted to create a LEGO-like modular toy that could be easily assembled and have aesthetically pleasing outcome.
The project was modeled using Grasshopper in Rhino so that di-mensions can be adjusted easily for material testing purposes. The pieces were 3D printed in ABS then cast with high-impact urethane rubber.

Soft Rocker Exploration Through a 2 week MIT workshop held at Kennedy & Violich Archi-tecture (KVA), I designed and built using chipboards an 1/4 scale model of my soft rocker. The inspiration was from KVA’s soft rocker design that was used for MIT’s 150th anniversary project displays. The goal of the workshop was to design solar powered rockers that can be mass produced using 4’ x 8’ pine plywood sheets with minimal waste.
Initially, I designed my rocker to mimic a bent wood chair. How-ever, because of the complicated design, it generated too much wood waste. So, I redesigned the rocker with elegant simplicity in mind. The chipboards were bent in places using a jig to create the model. If the rocker were to be built with plywood, the sheets would be kerfed and interlocked to form continuous curved surface.
