Here's some examples of industrial design and hard-surface concept art within different categories, done for our ID class at The Art Department. (Teacher:
Josh Nizzi)
We were assigned to provide 3-5 examples of each category. Of course, they overlap considerably, and I can usually think of several groups for each design. Also, these are just a small fraction of what I could've put up!
NOTE: Many of these designs are "real world" whether they're concept vehicles or ones actually available on the market. Of course, the mechs aren't, except one! hehe... A couple interiors here too.

INTEGRATED:
I wasn't sure about this category, but guessed it meant that all components were visibly part of a unit. In other words, not modular, or at least cleanly modular.

| Amaury Salas |

| Michael Kutsche |

| Aaron Beck |
NONINTEGRATED:
I assume this category meant designs that look like they can be easily modified, or have been over time. Things that don't seem to cleanly fit together. (This would make this category similar to "unrefined.")
