GERMANY!!

this was my adventure to Germany pictorial, it both started and ended in Belfast international. who knew they gave people 5 year passports? so been in carrickfergus since watching luke be potty trained- for a very very detailed review of how its going vist claire&marks blog- but be warned its very very very detailed- gross almost.

off to uni, again

Well i started this blog a year ago so its happy birthday to wolfestephenj.blogspot.com- because this time last year i was just going to start im Limavady- and this time next week should have started a proper art college... doing industrial(product), interior, furniture design. And so this is the last weekend before summers over. So this summer its been - finished limavady,weeks of EVERWOOD! neighnours and Ed.. followed by week in bloomfield(www.bye2006.co.uk/bloomfield)


and then im not sure what happened between bloomfield and adventure camp- more than likely it was Everwood,Neighbours and Ed, but then we (being emma and I ) decided to go to Adventure camp in bushmills as leaders, no no wait- just looking through my photos it was bloomers- then had some germans over for a few days- and then went to New Horizon for a couple of days, was really really good. think it was only a couple of days from n.h to adv camp.but anyways back to Adv.Camp only decided to go a day maybe before- such a good week also, such amazing kids/teenagers/peers watever they were..

its a little hazy between camp and sion team, think that was the next major event- ummm yeah it was- which was super dee dooper good (need more words other than 'good') but was great to do stuff with own church and with own young people.

yeah think after sion i managed to pass my driving test- yea! 3 years- and 3 attempts- but got it!


also been making a doorbell for the summer project for belfast- mmm not goin to put photos up, its all good in concept- but neither works of looks good.

so thats kind of it- thats been my summer...and so now that Everwood has finished- and so has Ed think its kinda time to go to uni

results of shelter in a cart

This was the competion i didnt enter- but took the guidelines used them for my final major project in limavady(awww limavady) and the results have finally come out!!the comp. was to design a cart for the homeless that then doubled as a shelter- hence the title of 'shelter on a cart'.this is the winner, and below it is the couple of my final ideas- i have a whole book of ideas- quite proud that a)alot of my other ideas were used by better designers than me and b) my final 'high visablity' concept i havent seen another design like it- (although i have seen the car cover concept used- but only after i had done it!)

theres some really great ideas -on designboom.com and look for the shelter in a cart results.also just a really good website in general and fills many a hour of my life...
