Day 7: Visit and Variations

It’s hard to believe that today was my second to last day at LCA! I have been having such an unforgettable and educational experience, having gained so much exposure to a potential area of college study and life-long profession. Shoutout to Ms. Eason for paying me a visit today; it was nice to see a familiar face in the office. I made some great progress on my greenhouse today. I completed the frame of my initial design, which made my next step of testing out glass paneling easier. By having a fundamental frame, I could copy and paste that same frame, only changing the glass for each variation. The traditional greenhouse has sectioned glass that usually follows a rectangular shape. I tested out several options regarding the sizes of the glass panels—big or small rectangles, horizontal, and vertical. There is no correct way to go about designing this greenhouse; it is important to test out the many different designs that can be created so the best one can be chosen. I am excited for my last day tomorrow but also a little nervous! The designers and I are having a group critique with the various projects we have all been working on. In the critique, I will be able to experience a true ‘design-thinking’ environment. Wish me luck!
