ROBERT PATAKI, PHILLIP SLATTERY

Quasar Heater

Vulcan

1980

This Vulcan Quasar heater project is an example of the skills and techniques gained by Robert Pataki whilst at Philips CID in Clayton, passed on to designers like Phillip Slattery. Robert was a part time lecturer at RMIT industrial design in the late seventies and early eighties. Robert developed presentation skills at ACI glass and Crown Beco Lighting, but it was his career at Philips, including the opportunity to work in Eindhoven alongside Syd Mead that refined his design sketching and presentation rendering techniques.
