standard chartered, at long last

the odyssey is over.  my project from hong kong, a redesign of standard chartered's retail experience, is finally posted online at my coroflot webpage.  

now it's spring break!

chairs

the two boards for my midterm presentation for my chair design studio.  i'm leaning toward the second option, because it's nearly absolutely useless.  not much use for a chair that you can't put up against the wall --- unless you've got a big, beautiful space.

this has been a challenging project, and not just because i've also been trying to finish my china project at the same time.  i'm a big fan of my I.D. hooks (like, ooo, it's made out of recycled materials, or, ooo, it folds up!) and bullshit like that, but i've made myself stay away entirely.  it's been hard.  

it takes a lot of guts to get up in front of some designers and just say "this is my design, what do you think?"

buck wild

at long last, some real content.  two pictures of my full-scale plywood ergonomic buck.  she's wide and low, and i have half a mind to make some nice cushions and keep her around the living room.  

tomorrow, renderings.

change sushi

sushi we can believe in.
