they really like me! kind of.

This isn't really what I wanted to discuss here, but I'm going to see if this blog can't also act as a "news page" for the portfolio website I run.

This past week I was informed that I was a finalist in the eVolo Skyscraper Competition for 2010. Check it:

Almost Famous.

I didn't really know what to expect going into that project. The competition (done annually) has gained notoriety for showcasing a lot of loosey-goosey fantasy blob types. I wanted to do somewhat the opposite of that. A very primitive geometric profile within which some character could be expressed via an unusual program and cultural/meteorological context. I thought it turned out alright, and so did the jury, so that's something I guess!

It's going to be a few more before I start on this next project. At least, until I work through some workflow kinks in adapting to normalized work weeks again. It turns out I forgot how little one feels like doing after an 8 hour work day.
