WEEK 1

Had my first lesson Today. HORRRAAY!!


We began talking about different designers and began delving into research about designers within different movements. Designers were suggested to us, for our assignment. Frank Gehry was suggested to me, though his architectural designs are no short of amazing, and the way he breaks down conventions of structural definition through his use of Deconstructivism is really really cool, Frankly architecture does't really do it for me. 


Frank Gehry: Dancing House in Prague 























Then I stumbled upon Cassandre, an Art Deco poster designer. His works must be famous because they are familiar to me. His designs clearly transcend their time, and the influences of Cubism, Futurism and other abstract styles, make his designs trippy. I'd love to study more about him.
