colours...

For my 'space sabre', which is essentially a 3-D portable scanner, i found basic colour schemes suited it best. In my exploration of various colour combinations, black and chrome was found to be the most effective choice. This was because most bright colours detracted away from the industrial aesthetic i was after. Seeing as my product would quite expensive because 3-D scanning is such a new technology, i thought it would be important to choose colours that exudes quality. I found the contrast between a matte black rubber grip and a shiny chrome like metal texture of the body of my torch like device worked the best.
 
My inspiration was high range power tools an other industrial equipment, along with high end kitchen appliances like coffee machines. This is because both 3-D scanning can be applicable to both industrial and domestic use. Sorry for the lack of images, I'll be sure to put some up in the not too distant future.
