1st Year Design School Projects
Here are so far all the projects we had to do in
school, in design school that is. This was in my first year in this school in
Liege, Belgium. it's called Institut Superieur des Beaux Arts Saint Luc, luckily the desgin section has a brand new building. My
class is totally overcrowded. But it is ok. People seem to think
that design is artistic and so, but good design isn't. I figure only the last 5
-10% are artistic at best, all the rest is based on some rational and logical
fact, like economics, production possibilities, ergonomics, psychology,..

here is an exercise we had to do, make a negative mold of a fruit and then copy the fruit out of plaster
well I made 2 different ones, one
the way the teacher wanted it with a plaster mold, and one my way with a silicone mold.

This was our first project, fold
some paper to little squares and draw them, then make the thing out of
different shades of gray paper. Now the wires correspond to the gray shades,
dark gray is high, white is low or something like that.

this sock project was just to fill up time, we had to design some socks
we had one more project ,make 3 shapes with different
textures and surfaces so that the shape indicates the texture , well something
like that. nobody really understood what the teacher wanted as usual. I prefer
not to put them up.
Conclusion:
I passed with 70% so that makes a distinction. Not bad
since I have to teach the teachers (no joke) I even had 2 classes where I got
100%!!
They already asked me to teach
another class next year in C.A.D.
I also made a 3D animation and pictures for a guy in his last year to save his ass. and I did, because he just
barely passed with 62%. (you need 60% to pass) and my illustrations were the
only ones he had, his model was only half done, and sloppy. so he owes me
big!! see it here.
oh no but next year I have all the same teachers again.
go to second
year
