Judgment Day

This evening the owners of Giovanni's Italian Restaurant came by to review the bars designed especially for their establishment.

Though there were many interesting pieces, the owners were able to narrow down the winners to three functional and aesthetic pieces. Each artist chosen was able to utilized the available space in the restaurant without forfeiting the elements of design.














And the winners are.....*drum roll*.....

The Summer 2008 Design 3d class would like to thank Giovanni's Italian Restaurant for the opportunity to help create the best design for their space.

Final Project, Mid-Critique

The class had a progress critique to help resolve any problems students may be having with building a model, writing an artist's statement, photographing work, or drawing a mock-blueprint.

Giovanni's Field Trip

The students had the opportunity to go to our client's establishment, Giovanni's Italian Restaurant & Pizzeria, and speak with the owners to better understand what they hope to see in a bar design. The class first took a trip to the Giovanni's in Lake Mary to take a look at the current bar, then traveled to the Giovanni's in Oviedo to study the space they are to designing for.

Welcome to Summer 2008!

Welcome to Professor Reedy's Summer 2008 design 3d course!

This Blog will be used as forum to discuss projects, go over lectures, and ask questions to your Teaching Assistant (that's me, Patricia).

As you may know, at the end of every semester the class designs a sculpture for the needs of a particular client. In the past we have worked in conjunction with companies such as Hard Rock Cafe, Harley Davidson, and The Lexington Hotel.
You can view some of these projects on our sister site, Adlab.

This semester the students will have the opportunity to design a bar for Giovanni's Italian Restaurant and Pizzeria.

All Students, please be sure to join the Design 3d Facebook group and check back to the blog often for discussions.

Until next time, Patricia.
