Design 053/101 Homework

Zoom Out Week

Capturing reflections in Mexico

Greetings from the Yucatán Peninsula, Mexico. We are here learning design from artists!

Question of the day: as designers, what can we learn from artists?
Art is not design.
Whenever designers want to play artist, disaster is guaranteed.

Greetings from Mexico! Now learning some mirroring tricks from another of our superheroes. The famous artist: Mr. Robert Smithson. To design is very different than to make art, but it is still important to encounter and befriend artists. They can teach us lots of nice things...

Homework # 53: Get a mirror (or maybe more than one), to place somewhere in your city.
You will create new spaces, combine fragments of matter reflect on illusions, duality or multiplicity.

What will I learn today? 

We are designers.In our stories, we need some real (or invented) function.

Why do we do this? To broaden our scope.

The best inspiration for your design, always comes from other places!

P.S.
