Back to Tesselations Artwork



I stumbled upon this artist, the other day. Yehrin Tong is an illustrator/ graphic designer and creates a lot of album and advertisement work all around images that repeat and rotate around itself. Much of the work becomes fashion fabrics, something I personally would buy because of its uniqueness and originality. The website to see more is

Andy Goldsworthy




As artists, most of us know of Andy Goldsworthy's work.  He is a very respected artist for making installations using nature's materials in the landscape.  After creating these beautiful pieces, he then allows nature to take over.   The installations often fall apart almost immediately, and some over a longer period of time.  It amazes me how he is able to make this work.  Here are a few images.  

Scale in Google SketchUp

I don't know if I am the only one, but I still find Google SketchUp to be kind of confusing.  I stumbled upon this video about the scale tool in the SketchUp program.  I hope ya'll find it as useful as I did!

Look Around You

My friend told me about these funny, joke math videos making fun of those videos we had to watch in high school that were seriously out of date and lame. It's pretty good.

PUNCH OUT STYLE CHAIRS

Photobucket
What better time than now to show this? This 'Cardboard punch-out' design stool comes complete with its own hang sell. Easier than a three year old's jigsaw puzzle, the pieces pop out of the frame to create a simple yet stylish stool.

see you guys in class!

a landscape with dreams


i know this chair isn't cardboard, but i was looking into cardboard chairs researching kind of for this project, and i stumbled on this blog all about chairs. they had all kinds of chairs, for airplanes, for lounging, and even one that could be twisted into a lounge chair, a study chair, or an everyday chair. but i thought the one below was the best, it said it was a lounge landscape. and it definatly is in my opinion. it creates this air around the lady making her seem as though she is larger than any human being. i love the way it cuts into the space so deliberatly and yet you just flow through it. it plays on depth and comfort which is so odd but extremly appealing. it's exciting what you could do with ideas.
