Aces and Spades

Good day folks,
I WILL POST A DESIGN BRIEF IN DUE TIME!!!

To give you a little over view, this was done over the course when I took a three dimensional design class two quarters ago. Based and inspired by a picture I took at Navy Pier (click HERE). The tackiest project I've done but uber fun nonetheless. Made out of elements laying around in my apartment.

Maybe we should develop a Crayola bomb as our next secret weapon. A happiness weapon. A beauty bomb. And every time a crisis developed, we would launch one. It would explode high in the air - explode softly - and send thousands, millions, of little parachutes into the air. Floating down to earth - boxes of Crayolas. And we wouldn't go cheap, either - not little boxes of eight. Boxes of sixty-four, with the sharpener built right in. With silver and gold and copper, magenta and peach and lime, amber and umber and all the rest. And people would smile and get a little funny look on their faces and cover the world with imagination.

Revelation

Consistency, accuracy, and a world class design. That was the goal while pursuing this project. The idea was to create an art gallery using various materials and come up with a fresh interior design. Various prison photographs are shown as the main concept of the art gallery.

Materials used (cost me about $30.00 to construct this baby)
-b&w foam boards
-nylon
-Elmer’s glue
-small canvas
-balsa wood
-black marbles
-black fabric
-buttons
-silver acrylic paint

It gave me the impression that I can be an ID major if I wanted to. Figured might as well use the gained skills and knowledge while taking this course, a couple of quarters from now for my packaging and design class.

Damage Structure

This is one of the preliminary models I am working on for our Form and Space class this quarter. The challenge was to build a 3-dimensional design that replicates a conceptualize damage structure.



This post will be edited in due time for details and better view.

Repetition

My first and ever 3-d model and I'm surprised that it turned out decent, knowing that I've never attempted anything like it in the past. We were supposed to build a structure using repetitive forms and accumulate it into something out of the ordinary. The transitional method gives this whole piece a sense of concurrence and accuracy which gave me a fat A+ for my first attempt!!!

I took this using my camera phone but it'll do just fine.
