It's still Monday in Washington State, so technically this post is on time!

I have worked like crazy on my Behavioral Setting, and I think I have my floor plans complete, but I just need to fix the roof and I will start my sketch model throwaway number two!

Basic Floor Plans




West side of the Behavioral Setting without the driveway covering.


East side of the Behavioral Setting without the deck and details.
Southwest side of the Behavioral Setting.
North Side of the Behavioral Setting. Emphasizes how the roof layout works.


These renderings in sketchup were mainly done to help visualize how the roof should look. I know that it is a simple roof, without anything extremely overdone or extravagant, but I will take any input on whether it will work or not.

Final Logo Design

I have finally finished my Logo for my ENDS 105 class that I will incorporate into my Industrial Design and portfolio. It has gone through much criticism and change to become what it is now. I started off by simply drawing abstract lines and this one was actually one of the first abstracts that I drew.


I then started playing with positive and negative spaces to create a stronger design and representation of my work.

This is the basic positive and negative spaces I started to play around with. This is actually my first rendering of my final logo.


I then started to make variations to my logo, only small parts at a time and I ended up with these ones to choose from. I decided to go with my initial design instead of choosing one of the changed versions.


This is my final logo design that I have created in Adobe Illustrator. It is a positive of my logo.

This is a negative of my logo.

This post shows my train of thought in the development of my logo and how it has morphed into the last two designs.
I am free to comments and suggestions!
Thanks and Gig'Em!!

Industrial Design Preliminary 1

I have completed my first Preliminary Industrial Design and am ready to create my second!! I have to fix where the top joints connect to the top plate and make them 1/8" longer, so they do not create a gap in between the joints and the table top. I am also going to round the top board edges off, instead of having them stay as a sharp edge. I will also make the cut - out a 1/4" deep instead of an 1/8". Finally, I will get some glass to put into the 7" square cut - outs. I am envisioning a sort of wavy glass that could flow with the grain of the wood, but I am open to suggestions.
