YD’s top 10 entries from the #renderweekly razor challenge - Yanko Design
If yous're an industrial designer who hasn't heard of Render Weekly, finish everything you're doing and head downwards to their website to accept a wait at the customs of designers and render-artists who come together week later on week to showcase their talents in modeling and rendering. The idea is simple. Render Weekly suggests a product every week, and you have a week to upload your work on Instagram with the hashtag #renderweekly. The all-time designs get picked and showcased on Render Weekly's Instagram account, and their modelers/renderers get immense designer street-cred.
The prompt for Calendar week 45 was Razor. Pretty open ended if you ask me. Designers were required to design also equally model and render out their razor concepts and the results ranged from sleek and minimal, to mesomorphic and masculine. Some designs even redefined the razor every bit we knew information technology. Amongst hundreds of entries, we picked our favorite 10 based on their concept, pick of material, CMF, and lighting!

Jake Lee's Z-Razor is simple, beautiful, and looks similar it would be an absolute pleasure to hold and use. The stainless steel body comes with its share of curves and a overnice weighted design that looks like it would experience nifty to grip. The bract has an innovative docking mechanism as well, and can be easily ejected with a simple click of a button.
Jonathan Welch's razor is as simple as they get. Made entirely from metallic, and with an incredibly slim body, Welch's razor wouldn't be as grippy as Jake's Z-Razor, just information technology does look incredibly desirable, and even features a rotating razor-head that lets you lot maneuver the bract easily across your jaw.
This razor designed by Kevin Klöcker actually champions portability. Information technology features a swiveling razor-caput that rotates ninety° to vertically align with the handle, allowing the razor to become as sparse as a pencil, assuasive it to slip easily into toiletry bags or your luggage compartments without occupying whatsoever space. When you need to shave, open the razor out into its 'T' shaped format and the razor clicks dorsum in place, property its shape until you press a button on the dorsum to close the razor down to its slim 'I' shaped form.
Seoul-based Hyunsol Park decided to channel a leManoosh vibe with his use of grade, close-upward renders, and a design language that'due south universally highly-seasoned. The razor also features a weighted flat base that allows it to stand up vertically when not in use, and a rather interesting silicone neck that connects the razor to the handle, allowing the razor-caput to flex ever and so gently to follow the contours of your face as you shave.
Another champion of portability, the Pill razor past Jeffrey Lee is a completely unlike concept. Designed to be a vertically oriented electrical trimmer, the Pill slides hands into pockets and backpacks, letting you carry it effectually just as easily as y'all would a pen. Pop its magnetic cap off and the Pill begins working. Hold the mesh against your stubble and the Pill trims your beard, giving you a bang-up, clean shave. Pop the cap on and voila, the Pill turns off! The area below the razor not only serves as a handle but likewise houses the AA battery that runs the razor.
Max Syme's contumely razor looks retro but too reliable. At that place's a certain masculine comfort in the way Syme'southward razor looks. Does information technology have something to practice with its robust looking Y shape? I don't know. The razor is made from solid contumely, features a slightly distressed look for that macho touch, and comes with a knurled handle that'south corking to hold onto as you run the razor across your jawline.
Dave Joseph's razor features a Y frame too, but captures a completely different spirit. Warm, inviting, and friendly, Dave'south razor blueprint features a plastic body that's absolutely rendered to perfection. The material, its roughness, self-reflections, and color are simply spectacular. Modeled with TSplines in Fusion and rendered in Keyshot.
One of the few direct razors to get submitted in this challenge, Mehmet Ergul'southward razor pattern features a hollow, hub-less rotating hinge, and a beautifully organic texture on the handle that stands out against the blade's angular, geometric design. The hollow hinge forms a great concave rest for your thumb as you shave, and hither's a piddling secret. Ergul used a dope deportation map to return that handle texture!
Dustin Low'southward razor stands out as i of the most detaild looking razors of the lot. Overcomplicated, only in a proficient way, Low's razor design explores a lot of things. Form, proportion, material, textures, transparency, and their ultimate effect on aesthetics. Low's even created a pretty awesome looking timelapse of the modeling procedure in Autodesk Fusion 360!
Last, but definitely not the to the lowest degree, Dennis Johann Mueller's razor concept lets this round-upwardly article finish on a complete high. Compact, and definitely a product you'd want to try to use at least once, Mueller's razor ditches the handle for a thimble. The razor literally mounts on your fingertip, allowing you to shave in a way that feels a little more natural because you're running your fingertip downwardly your jaw, rather than maneuvering a handle. I imagine this is how the Black Panther shaves likewise. Mueller calls his concept the RZR, which is such a perfect proper name because information technology'south merely as meaty and compressed every bit the concept design itself!
