Experience
In this project, I was able to easily move between two and three dimensional design. There was no defined program, which allowed for greater experimentation. By creating countless sketch models I was able to visualize the spaces quickly and complete many iterations. The design of both the initial sculpture and the final viewing platforms was well-received by students and professors alike.
