Design 101

Hey im Anna, a first year design student at Victoria University in Wellington. 


For our final project in desn 101 we had to create a object that portrayed the idea of a fluid form. The precedents were Zakary Kinnaird and Zaha Hadid. I used the repetition of Zakary's design in the ongoing use of different lengths plastic strips, and the influence of Zaha's flow of curves to help create some amazing curves when light falls on it.


I absolutely love the look of my final design!

Other Blogs

Was just checking out some other blogs and found some really cool ones that you should check out....

Ariana Pia - I really like the simplistic look of Ariana's page and that she has a theme that she continues through out her blog. Her drawing is gorgeous and looks amazing!! Cant believe this is a first year student!!

Ashley Goodwin -  I like the colouring and layout used in this page. Its a little pink but thats what makes it stand out against others blogs. I also really like the image that sits behind her heading.

Shalom Paia'aua - I really like Shaloms's page. He writes like he talks and is inviting, wanting you to keep reading on. 

All are great blogs ..........if you want to see more first year blogs check out class lists in the links.

Blogs and Websites

I found this design blog that is full of interesting things about homes and buildings all over the world. It has information on furniture designs, as well as interior spaces and quirky buildings. 

I really like the layout of this fashion design website. Its simple but quite elegant. Achieving the overall effect of having information there, without overpowering the clothing being shown.

Being a university student i love 42 below vodka. I really like their website too. Its quirky and fun with lots of information and funky graphics that are forever changing to reveal something crazy!!
