Fluid Form

Hi I'm James Fischer a first year design student at Victoria University in Wellington. As part of my first semester I was asked to create a model expressing fluid form as either an industrial object, an interior, exterior or a landscape. Drawing inspiration for my model from designs by Herzog and De meuron I created a fluid landscape model with intricate panels made of polypropylene held together with yellow thread. This model is successful because of its fluid shape, crisp detailed edges contrasting with the blurred back ground and the way the poly prop captures light allowing my model to glow. I really enjoyed designing and creating this model and my enjoyment shows in the detail and craft. The reason I decided to blog this assignment is that not only was it my favorite assignment I think that its the one that best portrays the basis for my own personal style of design.

Here's a pretty cool blog I found on Landscape photography that's pretty helpful in creating depth in your photographs its pretty sweet. http://rising.blackstar.com/how-to-create-depth-in-landscape-photography.html

Another really good design blog i found pretty much on graphic design has some really choice inspirational pictures. http://www.designiskinky.net/

this last one I found has some really interesting more modern designs for interior furniturings that really caught my attention. http://modernurbanliving.com/

Also here are three student sites from my year group that I think are quite good.
