Finals Week + Weekend
Final Design: I have made a few adjustments to the major design, firstly I created the last panel I was meaning to make and its meaning is explained later. I also added more texture to the clock wheels as they were looking very bland. And I added numbers to the clock for it to look much cooler. The entire design is based off of clockwork. The front panel would be the clock and on the sides would be the gears making the clock turn. On the back, finally I went to try and make an energy source and a sort of pulley system to have the gears turn so the clock can work.

Today, in class I expanded on my homework and I finished my third side. The first and this side will act as gears that help the major clock to turn. Sadly, I couldn’t print out my design, but I really want to finish it for finals.

Homework due 05/23/2023
For today, I started a new side that would look similar to the opposite gear side. (It’ll make sense in the end) I didn’t have much time, but I’ll see where I can take this in class.

Today I finished assembling my desktop organizer. I had come to consultation to start gluing the parts, but it needed a little more time. Today I finished up everything and here are a few photos of it in its position at home.
Homework due 05/19/2023
For today, I was really wondering how I should finish the clock side of the project. I tried many different patterns, but many were too complicated or I didn’t like them. So I went with a simple stripe that would let a lot of light through.

Homework due 05/15/2023
For today, I took a lot of time to make a big clock which will be the main face of the project. The clock even has numbers engraved on it and arrows to look as good and realistic as possible.

Homework due 05/09/2023
For today I created my first side of the luminary, I went with a similar design as my drawing, but I made the gears much bigger. and added a bit less connections than planned to let a lot of light through. I still like the design because it was really what I was aiming for.

Today, I photoshopped on my own my Paris skyline again. I finished it this time. I created more contrast between all the buildings of the skyline and I took away all the water from the river carefully as I thought it wouldn’t come out well.
Homework due 05/03/2023
For today, I chose to go with the clockwork sort of design. I think most panels will look about like this. I was inspired by one of the luminaries in class. For each side there will be many gears and some sort of aspect of clockwork like there is a needle here. I thought there would be an arch design at the bottom on each side to also connect them.

Homework 03/28/2023
For today I made six concept sketches of my desktop organizer with different ideas but I already picked the one in the top left to be the final one.
——————————————————————————————————————————-In class 03/27/2023
My brother wants an organizer that can fit in his A4 format papers, so I was thinking of having them lie flat in a drawer that takes up the bottom of the organizer, and organize his notebooks vertically with dividers. The personalization I will make for him will be having an inscription of the Eiffel tower, the meaning behind it is that we are french and our country means a lot to us. As a bonus I will try to incorporate his favorite color orange throughout the build.
