Well its summer now... and i need to show mr morgan some sort of work so: i've been working in an architectural firm and so i've learned alot about what is done and have been learning the basics of program autocad which is where all blueprints i've recreated to learn basics:
these are the section of an appartment block:
Although mebe not extremely amazing its the foundations of building and this significance of how all building start from simple 2-d drawings is pretty staggering.
Anyway as i laso had some time in the office to play aorund with some other programs and look around as i sat in the office i thought of some design for structures which i wasent sure how to come about and bring to 'life' so i adopted for SKETCH-UP a simple and intuitive program which not only fun can be quite complex help make these ideas become created in a visul style.
The first thing i made was this bridge i though of some of the asian bridges used in lords houses and then decided to try and make it a little more 'edgy'; here is it from sketch up in one of its more sketchy styles
Followed by a simply coloured render

As i got the hang of it i decided to start design for an idea i had in my head for a fountain/bench, this was meant to be something where as you sat on the bench, underneath you you had a founting which had an 'infinity pool' effect. This mean that the water over-flowed undeneath you and then flows out underneath your feet. Now as much as i like what came out, and it holds the basic principles of what i wanted the final output to look like it doest follow the ideal mental design to detail. this is because the base (in my mind) was mean to be an octagon and the benched very diffenret. As it was simpler to have the square base i decided to follow through with that and im very pleased with the outcome.
Here are the sketchy followd by osme nice coloured pictures of the final outcome, i like the way i personally feel that this oculd fit in alot of places and not stick out like sore thumb.
One of my summer ideas was mabe to create small somple models of these structures and see what comes out as it related to my theme as well as contributes to a possible project which is always good to have.

And another personal favorite i was asked to look for reference images for idea on design for a smlal kiosk that was being built. So once done from what i ofund i decided to try making my own littl emodel in sketch up and seeing what came out. Although complete out of proportion of scale i like the overall design of the building . check it out
Also when you open sketch up theres always a sketch of a playground so i decided to give it a go and althuogh not as extensive as the one in sketchup i like it alot and add a bit a day

As for painting i would like to do something with the architects in direct relation to there tools, so although jsut a simple idea i would like to do something with the poeple i work with mebe along the lines of jona's shadow project where i have the silouhettes with alot the of ideas coming from the autocad lines which i need to explore would be the best way to make it all fit together. This all sounds a bit vague but i am working on it.
