Week 1

Jane Goodal

According to her Qoute, Her idea behide this qoute is that if the person who try very hard to do something and never give up. at the end he or she will suceed. what i try to do to represent this qoute is that at the beginning of the design, it will be abit complicated and really hard to pass through but after passing that point. she will reach the place that more relaxing.

Stephen Hawking

For his qoute, he explain that human are just a small living thing but what make them special is that they have knowledge, they know what the other dont know. for this qoute i use the design principle as a major consideration which is focal point. the object in the middle should be some thing very simple but surrounding with random object. the surrounding objects are used to enhance the object in the middle and make it more special.

work hard, and take advantage of

"We are just an advanced breed
of monkeys on a minor planet of
a very average star. But we can
understand the Universe. That makes us

"And so is the world put back by
the death of every one who has

improvement of t hat world) to
conventionality."
