Tree hunting

Today in class we started our new project that is focused on drawing. I am really excited for the project though because we are designing tree houses! There is nothing not fun about that and I am really stoked to start thinking of stuff. To be honest though, I am kind of nervous about the project because I will admit, I am one of those "anti-flow" people. I am going to really try to just let go of my drawing insecurities for this project and do my best.
These are some treehouses I saw online that I really like...

So our wayfinding project is moving along quite smoothly. We have decided to go full force ahead with our solution to see if it works out alright. Our solution is simply a sign in the staircase that is very clear and concise, but still has an aesthetic aspect of design. After putting our sign up, the next step will be to test it out with some new people who have never been in the A&D building. If they find the best way to room #345 by using our sign, we are golden! I thought the speaker at lecture last night was really interesting, as well as the Graphic Designer from NYC. This semester I am starting to look at Design in a whole new light. Its pretty cool. Thats all for meow.
Stay warm,
