Hello Everyone!
So the semester is finally coming to end! It feels like it just started! I'm starting to finish up my final projects for interior design. We had to design a guest house from a certain architectural style: my style was the Federal Period. We designed the floor plan, the furniture layout, all the finishes, even the exterior coverings. It was great to finally do actual interior design work and learn how it all comes together. It's kind of interesting how you don't even notice or think about things until you have to put them together yourself. So while that was going on I also had my sculpture project to finish up. I made a floor lamp for my final out of mild steel rod. It came out really nice. Its about 6 feet tall and very minimalistic. I used a large edison bulb for the light fixture and now I'm in the process of doing the electrical work to get it working. I am using the electrical cord as part of an accent for the actual lamp so it all fits together. I also installed a dimmer on the end of the cord near the outlet so that you can control the amount of light. I really hope it all works out by Friday! It was interesting to mix the two classes together because even though sculpture is a seperate elective I could pick out my own project and so I related it to interior design! Well I hope your college search is going well for everyone! Have a wonderful holiday!
