Night Light Maze

Streetlights in dark maze-like alleyways in New York City were the inspiration behind the sugar cube design project. The cervical shape, guide lights, and subordinate to the dominant wall style provide a sense of movement within the structure. The cervical shape created with the sugar cubes allows for starts and stops within the maze directing you throughout the designed path. Placing the lights along the created path allowed spectators to follow along the movement of the passage, the lights also provide a visual experience of the sun coming in between buildings like the light shining between the sugar cubes. Creating different wall heights within the structure gives the sense of walking in between buildings in New York City, the back wall is the dominant feature within the structure or the tall buildings within the city, and the shortest wall is the subordinate part of the design or the shorter buildingswithinthecitywalkway.

Late Night Walk

On occasion, some people will go out for a late-night walk to look up at the starry night sky. With this concept, to emulate that feeling of walking through the night and the only light being the stars surrounding you. With the planes that create a bridge formation, I also added star shapes into the sides to have an overall feeling that the stars are all around you as you walk through. Stars are very bright formations and tend to stand out when in the dark. To make the environment within the box feel as if it is night, it was painteddarkbluetoportraythatfeeling.

Creative Writing

Using the visual forces; center, left & right, grid, texture, and field a design was created to represent personal interests, which are drawing and designing. While studying writing from left to right and right to left it was very different writing from right to left as a left-handed person and it would cause for some of the letterstobe fliparoundwhichwasincorporatedinthedrawing.
