C.R DESIGN WORKSHOP

JANINE GOOD

Introduction to Design, Not all is black & white.

May 15 2021

The third workshop was about design, we ran some drawing exercises and talked about the simplification of imagery that had to be applied when creating our designs for the corten steel panels. Like the other workshops this workshop was environment-oriented but included information about the Golden Ratio, and Fibonacci sequence and how they related to patterns in nature and the origins of design. This day included a talk about the steel laser cutting process by local engineer Jon Volta and Janine was also given a tour of the Four Brothers Rock Formation in Bunyip State Forest by locals.

The afternoon is spent getting community feedback about potential content for the Panel Designs.

Feedback from some participants of these workshops is that they now see the world in a different way, that it is not just about appearance but there are so many other factors - this was my aim, a satisfying result!

THE PANELS

These are the designs that evolved from community consultation and sharing of stories.
