Form & Space

This was a 3D class trying to help us think outside the box.

This was a Serial Plane project. We were to take a shape and then break it down into planes. Here is my inspiration: a classic glass decanter.
This is the computer mock up of the estimated size curve size.
Final Project...with removable top
This was a simple take home project. Take paper strips and create something. The first one I did in class looked horrible. This is the new one I did after sitting down in my studio and just knocking it out. The base is a thick mat board (11x17).
Spatial Cell project. I did not get a picture of the final but here is the computer mock up. This was also the second attempt...the first one is so bad it makes me cry and laugh when I think about it.
This was a group project where we had to do a full size cardboard cut out. This was the base. I did not get a picture of the final, but it has a black bar over the "censored" area and a tie that was hand painted by a classmate to say "it's my birthday".
The last project in this class was package design. I do not have pictures of the final products and point of purchase display but I will as soon as it goes up for display. My product was girl fishing equipment...called hook, line and sinker. Here is the logo.

Design History Recap

Design History was a great class. This is a recap of the projects he had us work on.

This project was after learning about Push Pin Studios and Milton Glaser. You should take some time to look over their work at http://www.pushpininc.com/ .

We were told to take an existing book or CD and redesign the cover using the style of push pin.

This was the final piece I turned in on top, and then next two were my original mock ups.



This was earlier in the quarter, where we were told to pick a designer or style we had been studying and design a poster of for an art opening. I chose Karel Teige who worked with some interesting photo montage and graphical elements. http://www.nyu.edu/greyart/exhibits/teige/

In this project, we were told design a book cover, title page and two page layout based on a designer or style and/or in their style. I chose Will Burtin who did really interesting things with mixing science and design. http://www.creativereview.co.uk/cr-blog/2007/november/will-burtin-forgotten-master-of-design
Book Cover
Title Page
Layout page one
Layout Page two
This was my final for this class. We were asked to design a portfolio cover for our own portfolio. No rules, no sizes, no instructions. This has a lot of detail that I am not sure pick up in this photo.
