So, back at school now, which means I get to be all pretentious and talk about "aesthetics", "cantilevers" and "design intent". The difference between this year and last year is that I had several projects in my studio in which to spread my stress induced freak outs. This semester, I have one. One project. O-N-E. Worth 100% of my studio mark. Boo-urns.

The project, as I understand it right now, is to design a multi tenant dwelling in a transitional neighborhood in Winnipeg. For my group, we have the lovely location of Point Douglas, a stone's throw away from Higgins and Main (Or as Metronome would have it, a penny's throw away from the denizens of Higgins and Main). A project in the projects. Fun.

(Note: I realize that I'll have to avoid making such offensive jokes in the future of this assignment, so I thought that I'd spend this week mocking it so it'll be tired later.)

The other groups were doing some monastery in St Norbert, the Japanese Cultural Centre or the fields just south of Stony Mountain penitentiary. Unfortunately, I figure that ours will be the only group who has to worry about being stabbed on a site visit. (Well, the penitentiary group will have to watch for prison breaks, but that only happens ever couple weeks at stony mountain.)

Anyway, I'll have fun thinking of this assignment, and reading the highly offensive sample tenants that were on the project brief.

Arrrrrr Metis, Happy Talk Like a Pirate Day.

I'm CuddlePuppy, Stay classy.
