This semester has taught me a lot in terms of the different aesthetics that have arisen over the years and the different design methods to reach the perfect aesthetic for a project. I enjoyed, most of all, the projects we worked on that allowed us to take what we were learning and put it into…

My aesthetic was supposed to take on a contemporary design. I wanted it to have a mixture of futurism, surrealism, and modernism designs. The frame was meant to be modernistic in that it s squared, using straight lines and no extra artistic components. I planned for the wood to be stained a dark color and…

For my project, I made an infinity mirror clock that uses LEDs. The way it works is quite simple.

I started off with some…

For my project, I essentially wanted to create a project that was based on something we throw away very often, especially here in Boulder. So immediately, I thought of bottle caps! I found two upcycle ideas that I was truly torn between. One of them was this idea of using bottle caps to create some…

http://www.designturnpike.com/pop_soda_and_beer_bottle_cap_art_and_maps.html I found two upcycle ideas that I was truly torn between.

I figured that since we are in a college town, bottle caps have to be one of the most abundant items that can be used for upcycling. Also, the…
