I have been going over my past work and this is one of those projects that I will never forget. It came from the heart.
Not too long ago, I think it was Year 1 or Year 2, I had a project for my 3D class at OCAD, to design and build a light fixture that meets the following requirements.
Depending on your luck, you could draw only two pieces of paper – floor, table, wall – and – read, eat. With my luck, I picked out ‘read’ and ‘floor’. What?! I have to read ON the floor? Who does that?! But the answer was right in front of me.
The cute munchkins are my inspiration – my nieces!
After endless nights of doodling (it really was only 6 nights and days), tracing, cutting, wire stripping, snipping, sewing and stuffing, this is what I ended up with…
I managed to carry it into class without knocking one down, or getting struck by a car.
It fits her just fine, and with room to grow!
This was definitely one of the most memorable projects during my University studies.
How can you forget a big bunny with ears that light up?
