the purpose of life is to fight maturity


i do this everyday

cubes

whilst completing my materials assignment [1, 2 and 3]
i was researching cubes and came across these funky little cubes
and they are just gorgeous and simple, yet ugh, wonderful!

they're by parisian (of course) architecture studio called atelier 37-2

each of them serves a different purpose for a french photography studio, so hair/makeup and styling and production etc



i really really want one
or two
or three
i haven't decided yet

via designboom

plastic

the final iteration of my staple model


using coreflute, that plastic board that politicians print their advertising on



i've changed the inside so it's more 'dynamic' but the most important part of it is the effect of the coreflute layers and how they create an almost optical illusion


so i've been using lots of materials this semester, coming up with some interesting results.
and then i'll be doing it all again next year. yay.

i hurt my neck muscles

how?

by grinning too much

the internet cannot convey my excitment enough

if we were to translate happiness into cuteness
this would embody my feelings

Good design is obvious.
Great design is transparent.



sososososo true.
although you want people to notice,
it's always better if it's subtle yet powerful.

timber

to continue from what i showed ya'll a while back [here and here], here is the prequel to my metal frame of staple glory.



timber.


and yes, again an epic undertaking, but i used 600 cubes.
not as impressive, but i did cut them all on our dining room table with a scroll saw
[with help from various family members]




i heart sawdust

bus trips

for the first time in a
very
very
very
long time, i sat at the front of the bus.
and it made such a difference


usually i spend my bus time looking out the side of the window just looking at the same sites
this time i was watching the road and the same trip was completely different


try it sometime, add some excitement to that portion of your day
