What did I learn this week, academically and personally?
Design Elements and Principles. Particularly interested in the golden ratio/ fibonacci sequence and how this can be applied in interior design. Also the rule of thirds and dividing compositions into a 3x3 grid or in thirds and put key elements on those third lines to balance and bring focus to key areas. ie - not in the middle. Also enjoyed Intro to Design class about Trends, another area I'm keenly interested in.
Design Drawing I learned a lot about scale and dimensions and measuring up and how to format a drawing page. Again I learnt that I need to slow down and be neater!
Graphic Comms - * A lot of time spent on assessment 1 for Graphic Communication, the drawing and tracing of Rose Seidler House. Last week I wasted a lot of time driving to Traralgon and back (45 mins round trip) to use the printers and copiers at Officeworks. On Monday it occurred to me that the library literally out the back of my house may have a printer I could use. I finished my Rose Seidler drawing on the weekend and drove to Officeworks to scan it in and submit with plenty of time. I learned that once there's black where there should be white to just accept it ;) trying to fix it with more black does not help!! lol
