About this project

This small startup is called Beta Objects. Beta Objects serves as a source to develop, design, and implement ideas into existence. I am opening a prototype shop to aid in this feat.

What is a prototype shop? It is a space in which I can give ideas tangibility. Sketching out concepts and processes on paper is crucial to the design process, but having the ability to interact with objects to further develop them is vital. I am excited to take this next step.

What needs to happen? The space is raw, no insulation, no floor, no power. Take the new space, which was 100% gifted, and lets finish and furnish it. I will do the hard work so it is ready to launch and endure the Chicago winters. If there is any excess funds for any reason we will use it to back others projects and blog about it.

Here are the things needed ...

Concrete Floor Electricity Insulation Drywall 3D Printer Small Shop Tools Work Tables Lighting

I characterize myself as a designer, idea developer, and problem solver. My work Industrial Design is vital to my personality. My brain is always on, and it turns and pumps out idea after idea. Beta Objects is one of several outlets to collaborate and develop.
