We've been briefed about structures and how they can be used in a conceptual manner. Then we were divided in groups again, where both graphic design students and interior design's would work on a structure made out of cardboard, we were allowed to use our environment too but the design had to have a meaning behind it.

We were given pieces of cardboard and pair of scissors and we did this. We had a limitation though, if we use a square everything has to be a square for example and we didn't had the right to sketch our ideas, we had to start it straight away.



We chose triangles as our main shape, our main concept was a landscape, and therefore we chose the foam board to put our design on since it looks like a mountainous landscape. We did like a jigsaw puzzle of the triangles slotting them one to another then we grip it onto the foam board. As we were progressing through the design we found a much better concept to it though. At the end we decided to represent the pattern of life through this design since it spreads all over it's environment just like how vines or other grass that grows on tress or walls, like it's concentrated somewhere and as it spreads it get lesser and lesser and smaller and smaller and of course it's unpredictable, that's why they are in various different shapes.



After this we were asked a few questions. We were asked how difficult it was to have these restrictions, we were asked how hard it was to have to start a work without being allowed to sketch any ideas? And some other questions as well. This exercise was actually to teach us how to improvise when we're having an issue with any project we're working on.
