Marc Newson 1/5

We're going to be watching some of this in 3D Design next week. If you wanted to check it out early, it would serve as great inspiration for your weekend design assignment. In case you were absent or somehow missed it... Design a better bar of soap. Study how it fits in your hand and carve the form so that it is more well designed to not slip out of your hands while it's wet and slippery in the shower. Bring in 3 carved soap bar designs for class on Monday. Have fun!

This is awesome. Definitely look at this.

3D Design schedule update/reminder

Remember, this afternoon/evening is a work day for you to make progress on our current assignment "Product Design Curator". Finished projects will be due at the beginning of class on Wednesday this week.

Snow Day

Hi folks. The roads in Brooklyn are atrocious and the snow keeps on coming. I am anticipating that school will close for afternoon classes and wondering why there is not already an announcement for day classes. Regardless of what announcements the school makes, my afternoon 3D Design class is canceled for today. See you Monday with supplies and objects for your first assignment!

WELCOME BACK! HAPPY SPRING! YAY!

Late project submissions...

If anyone has late work to submit, you must do so by 3:30 PM on Tuesday. You can leave work in room 110 with your name on it, or in my mailbox if it's a portfolio. I plan to be on campus on Tuesday, Dec. 21 from 1:30PM - 3:30PM if you would like to meet with me.

Lecture postponed

Hi all,

This is both true and disappointing.... Due to a late night construction mishap at Stony Brook, my lecture is being re-scheduled for a future date. There is no way to un-cancel class, so its still canceled, unfortunately. Please share this with anyone you know who was planning to attend my lecture.
