Dry

The proposed material selections will be reinforced concrete for the top level and the bottom level will be carved from existing natural rock at the site.

Inspiration

Its seems cliche but it is ONE of the buildings. I really do not have a building that inspired me to become an architect at once. The idea of becoming an architect has just has grown on me over the years as i saw many buildings and complexes.

Beautiful Photo

God's creation is beautiful.

This is my main reason for choosing this as my photo of something beautiful.
This was taken at the beach near Towradgi Beach Park, Wollongong. Also it is beautiful to me as it reminds me of the time when this photograph was taken.


Creative Work

This is one of my Year 10 wood work projects. It is a coffee table made out of pine veneer. I designed the table to be functional, strong and aesthetically pleasing. It appears to 'float' above the floor, and is built with storage compartments. The table is able to withstand heavy loads and rough treatment found in the average household by being built tough, out of sturdy materials.
