Robbin's Eggs and Branches Reaching.




so ... scratch all of that. 

after sitting on my concept for a few days i decided that i needed to reinvent my idea. instead of a country nest, im doing a nest in the big city. mixing extremely modern lines and geometry with the organic lines of branches. i thought that perhaps having bookshelves flowing into and out of the room would add a slight sense of the concept without being overpowering. 

I found these by WOKmedia and i swooned

oh and i found the perfect bathtub. its all egg shaped and stuff. 

so the project is well under way and i am so happy to be reporting this!
thank goodness.

I know why the caged bird sings.



So for my "Pied-a-terre" project [a small second apartment or temporary home] , im really thinking something organic. Eclectic even. I spoke with Norman about my concept, and he really challenged the... straight forwardness of my idea. I need to abstract my design a bit from my concept statement. I really wanted to focus on bird cages, and the idea of coming to and from a nest freely. Problem is, i just keep falling in love with Tree based furniture and accessories. I mean, who wouldnt love to fall asleep under this: 

It's been quite some time

But here i am, one HUGE project into my Sophomore Year at Ringling, and i couldn't be happier!

We were asked to design a dental office, Nothing too big, just a beginners office.
Im not going to brag about all the technicalities and needs i have had to meet for this project, there are far too many, but here we are, my first real ID project


So... theres that, nothing too EPIC, but im extremely happy with how it turned out! Our next project, I believe, will be a corporate hotel suite. Dandy... lets see how that goes!

Ill keep this thing updated with all my work business, nonsense stuff. So keep checking back!

NoPattern.com 

so great. 

his photography, and computer skills are top notch. 

its friday. and i need to get out of this dorm room before i shoot myself.

what has more brains that kurt cobain?

the wall behind him.

i woke up so freaking late today. ugh. [i say this after deleting my 3 para
graph run down of my hectic and lazy morning] i was a couple minutes late for drawing studio, and realized i have to create an alter ego. another reason to say "ugh"... 


after class i went to the art supply store and got some of these pretty little life savers to help me work on my next project.  as well as a few pieces of canvas-board, and some acrylic paint. 





on another note. i feel like crap today. i spilt steaksauce on my mini jersey peacoat and its really rainy out. 

im done complaining. 
...ill be playing with my new sharpies if you need anything.

a much needed fresh start.


lately i have been absolutely floored by Branislav Kropilak's photography. i really like it a lot.
he has this way of capturing time, and making seconds look like hours,
or the other way around.

im mesmerized.

[click me]

on another note. im excited to move on to next semester. but first and foremost, im ready for winter break. im excited to go back home and show everyone all that ive learned so far. i remember leaving home and not saying goodbye to anyone. i just packed my bags and left.. i have a lot of lost ground to cover.

and with that, i will leave you for the night.
