Sketchup Modeling

After getting used to the controls, I continue to create my first rough model. The model I chose was of the 'Creating + Zooming' sectional sketch 2.







18 Sections

List of words:
- Shinya Kimura: Dynamic (adjective), Zooming (verb), System (noun)
- Antonia Stradivari: Creating (adjective), Comprehensive (verb), String (noun)

All sections are paired. The first sectional sketch on top of the pair of drawings shows Antonio Stradivari's represented word on top of Shinya Kimura's represented word. The second sectional sketch paired is then the opposite of the first.

BEFORE FIRST CLASS...

Step 2:

The picture below is of a group assignment that I had done back in Landscape Architecture. It consisted of using shapes and patterns, formed through music, and using it to redesign the Science Square and area in front of Red Center. I am particularly proud of this work because of how well me and my group performed.


















The picture below is of the Brandenburg Gate and was designed by architect, Carl Gotthard Langhans. This gate is one of Berlin's most important monuments an architectural landmark and historical symbol all in one, the 'gate of gates' and would love too visit in my life.

















This photograph below is of a Gulian Pecan pie which I could not do anything but stare at it, as it was for my girlfriend.
