- I get to produce far better eye candy for my portfolio of ideas than what I could do in school, given the digital tools available to me in the 21st century.
- I get to revisit, reinforce, and develop some of the aesthetics / design language that I first explored in college.
- I'm not likely to get another opportunity to do this with large scale projects unless I work for a large firm and it's not likely that I'll ever work for a large firm given my general propensity to avoid the politics of a large firm.
- It's hella fun.
I have just one rule: I can't spend more than a few days on each project.
The base model for this particular project took 6 hours total to build. The design -- so far -- is much longer, especially with the compound curves. With the self-imposed time restrictions, I can't get into the nitty-gritty details at the plan level of how everything works, but that's okay because plan layout isn't what I'm after, here. Sculptural models and spatial thinking are what I'm chasing.
