ARCH 101 FINAL PROJECT Research and Draft Proposal Blake Inspiration: My inspiration is from the ocean, and the waves. So I am trying to make something will rotate by itself. Here are something I found on you tube. They are all constructed through rotate-system. In additional, all the mobiles’ constructers use geometric shapes to create beautiful patterns in the movement. I also learned some new ways to connect the body parts besides simply hanging the object in the air.

Design Intention In this piece of project I am trying to communicate the new born and death. I will still use the inspiration from the ocean and the waves. I am going to use the rotate system to construct the body and make it possible to move up and down. In additional I am going to use geometric shapes to create a movement with some moving patterns through repeating the shapes. I will use wind as my energy, and I choose the tree on the smoking balcony as my site. And I want make it big. Because I think the scale really helps to amaze people, and also I can add more details in there.
