Me and My Work!

First off I am just going to start off by saying, Hi! I'm Georgina, a first year design student, and hopefully majoring in Interior Architecture next year. And second "Welcome to My Life!"

For the first project we did in Desn 111, we had to create a cardboard and wire model using only straight lines and cuts, therefore no curves are allowed. As well as a drawing which showed the shadows that were being created by the wire model.

The image shows the drawing of the wire model and its shadows, the bolder thicker lines show a plane and side view of the model. I rotated the shadows around the two views which, helps to capture the amazing shadows that was projected, overlapping the shadows helped to make it abstract. I left the centres of the lines hollow, which helps to create a 3D effect, that I thought helps to contribute to an amazing composition. By using the hatching technique helped to give depth to the drawing. Overall I love the drawing and feel that it gave justice to the overall composition and the shadows havce been captured and shown well.

Blogger Stalking

When it came down to checking out other peoples blogs I found some really cool ones that you should check out:

I loved this blog by Tanya Mazurkiewicz, the reason I loved this blog was because of her graphics and how shes cutomised her own blog template, I find it eye catching and when i took a quick glimpse I wanted to see more.

Another blog you should check out is Anna Funnell's, the simplicity of her blog helps to create an impact on her overall blog and makes it interesting, so its not being over powered by its background.

Also a blog by Elle Beeden, from this blog i loved the contrasted colours of black and pale orange theme throughout the blog, the colours complement each other and are not too in your face.

Websites and Blogs

I remembered this design website that I really liked, that I found last year at school. I really love this website and the designs that they create. I loved the easy access and flow of the website overall.

I found this interesting design blog in which they have guest posters come in give their thoughts and views on what they have seen or liked. This website is full of design tips, ideas and a place for people to get their design work out there.

I love this music website, which shows the line up for a major music event in NZ and Australia. I love this website because every year they come up with a new random idea and base their overall website around it.
