about.
My name is Liam Gallagher and I am a graduate from the College of Architecture, Design, and Construction at Auburn University.
I grew up skateboarding and surfing in the small beach town of Point Pleasant located at the Jersey Shore. These hobbies led me to appreciate the smooth lines and slight variations in product shapes and to think about the implications of design in product usage and execution. I’ve always been inspired by the elegance and beauty of nature—smooth, sleek lines, and the sublime energy of crashing waves. I strive to translate these inspirations into my designs, creating products that embody both form and functionality.
I am deeply passionate about minimalistic design, Color, Material, and Finish (CMF), as well as the interplay of semantics, user interactions, and form development.
My design aspirations include fields such as automotive interior design, watch design, eyewear, tech, and beyond. Brand identity fascinates me, and I am driven to enhance a brand’s tone, voice, and aesthetic through innovative, thoughtful design.

Collaboration
Projects have consisted of research of the existing market and the ideal persona for each product. Then we would dive into hand sketching to put ideas onto paper. Then eventually, after many rounds of iterations, dive into a 3D CAD software in order to model the product.
Models would be made with 3D printers or by hand out of many materials such as foam core boards, wood, metal, and more.
These projects would be judged and graded off a diverse criteria laid out by the professors
