divingBell
An industrial underwater workspace, developed through cockpit concepts and a modeled cutaway.

From concept
to a working layout.
The mix of screens, analog gauges and hand controls carries from the concept into 3D. The broad, wrapping instrument bank becomes a central equipment stack with control groups to either side; the cutaway locates it inside the bell.
Lights, screens
and material response.
The same central stack gains illuminated screens and equipment lights. This ten-second study shows how illumination changes the emphasis across the controls.

Earlier exploration · biological form & underwater setting
Earlier divingBell direction: an eel-like body enclosed by a protective frame, with entry through the head and a segmented tail. These biological mechanisms belong to the early concept; the industrial bell shown above uses a different shell and station layout.
Earlier console iteration — model & materials
Earlier, wider console configuration: three main display housings span one horizontal desk. The two images below compare geometry and materials within this version; the main assembly above uses the central equipment stack.
