"Be strong enough to stand alone, be yourself enough to stand apart, but be wise enough to stand together when the time comes", the Aniwaya "Wolf Clan". At the beginning of the semester, students were asked to further open their minds past the basic idea of: what is a chair or table? What are they used for? A basic concept that has evolved over the centuries, for many different uses, a design reused and developed for the time. Students were then asked to create their own ideas, and take the ideas further than a drawing. So I stayed with that in my mind, what to design that’s not only aesthetically attractive, but also having a multitude of uses and inspirations. Then I came to think of the past, structures and objects I’ve once seen in old films and books such as “Davy Crockett” and “Swiss Family Robinson”, such designs that fell under the category of rustic and naturalist. Afterwards, I began sketching different ideas that came to mind. From there, the original design evolved into something more, while under the guidance of Professor Rafael and woodshop manager Stephen.
