two studios and dining table






the first studio designed for Angela Merkel is a combination of differntly sezed rectangle boxes, with a rather curved texture applied. she was famous for her strenth and power at politics, while she is still a woman herself. a combination of hardness and softness is my main idea of this studio.


this studio designed for Hellen Keller is simpler, for i must make it easy for her to live and work. it is a suspended building, for there is alomost no rain in Grand Canyon, it has no roof. the material is one of my hand drawn textures according to the word linear.

elevator and bridge






my idea of the bridge is to make it balanced. as we know Hellen is blind and deaf, so her whole life is to use less sences to keep balance which is much easier for normal people.Angela Merkel is a politician, whose job is to keep the balance between Germany and other countries, as well as national and international situations. my bridgestone is a single column made up by bunch of "pyramids", which looks fragile but very balanced indeed.



My bridge has two levels. the first level connects two studios, the second level is the elevator platform where clients can get to their elevators.





This is th elevator to help my two clients to get to the second floor of the bridge, where they can reach their individual elevator. therefore i got 3 elevators.







this is my second elevator designed for Hellen Keller. as we know she cannot see nor hear, so the elevator must be completely safe, but she can still feel warmth and coldness, as well as the wind blowings, so i put some holes ont the side of the elevator. it is also my favourite part of my work among all, especially the fist assembly procedule.











my third elevator is designed for Angela Merkel. she is a politician, so her elevator is stable, and balanced.





5 real-time images of sandbox landscape

origional picture
the valley i choose is the grand canyon in the US. because of my computer, the textures i put on the cliffs does not show very well in further area. the mixture of orange, brown and yellow show the feature of dry rocks and sands pretty clealy. there is a stream going trough the valley i chose, therefore we can find some plants on the river side.



this is my bridge in between the cliffs


cliff with texture but not colored

then i put the color on. all colors of the materials i've used in my work are adjusted by myself.

A mashed up article about the three clients

Helen Adams Keller was born on June 27, 1880, in Tuscumbia, Alabama. Miranda May Kerr (born 20 April 1983)[1] is an Australian model best known as one of the Victoria's Secret Angels since mid-2007.Her family lived on a homestead, Ivy Green[3], that Helen's grandfather had built decades earlier[4].

Lee[6]. Helen's mother, Kate Adams[7], She is the first Australian to participate in the Victoria's Secret campaign, and also represents Australian fashion chains Portmans and David Jones Limited.was the daughter of Charles Adams[8].

, a Switzerland native[6][9]. Coincidentally, In an interview, Kerr stated she is of English, French and Scottish descent and countered rumors that she had Filipino heritage.one of Helen's Swiss ancestors was the first teacher for the deaf in Zurich[6]. From 2005 to 2009 she led a grand coalition with the Christian Social Union (CSU), its Bavarian sister party,Helen reflects upon this coincidence in her first autobiography, Kerr began modeling in the fashion industry when she was 13, starting at Chaay's Modelling Agency, stating "that there is no king who has not had a slave among his ancestors, and no slave who has not had a king among his[6]."and soon after winning a 1997 Australian nationwide model search hosted by Dolly magazine and Impulse fragrances.[3]

Due to a protruding left eye, Keller and the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD), formed after the 2005 federal election on 22 November 2005. During her childhood, Kerr "raced motorbikes and rode horses on her grandmother's farm." She describes her early life in the Australian countryside as "very grounding ... there wasn't any pretentiousness and no one really cared what you were wearing. You could just be you." Her family was usually photographed in profile. Both her eyes were replaced in adulthood with glass replicas for "medical and cosmetic reasons".

In the elections of 27 September 2009, her party, the CDU, moved to Brisbane to allow Kerr and her brother to experience city life, where she graduated from All Hallows' School in 2000, obtained the largest share of the votes, and formed a coalition government with the CSU and the Free Democratic Party (FDP). Kerr originally planned to study nutrition at a university before pursuing modeling. Her government was sworn in on 28 October 2009.[2]
