Learning from Others...

Learning from others is often the best kind of advice/ideas given. Today, we were assigned to have desk critiques with our fellow classmates; i was partnered with Debbie and Ashley W, Jackie also joined us. As i learned about their ideas and how their concepts portrayed in their designs, i was able to connect and add ideas that connected with my ideas. Even though we are still in conceptual mode, not trying to worry about dimensions and floor-plans, we discussed that it is still in the back of our minds as to how we will fit all of our ideas in the space. We discussed how important it is to play with the columns even though there are too many of them. Also incorporating reused materials and adding Greensboro native art to the space as well. As to this weekend, getting with my group, Kelsey and Emily, we will decide what we like and go from there. Developing more from one idea will allow us to think more of the details as well as the space as a whole. Today was very helpful, it sometimes takes others thoughts to allow you to see a different perspective on things.
