Great minds think alike...

You know you've met your soulmate when you start buying each other the same thing for Christmas. My check from selling some kicks finally cleared today and after a week of watching my favorite shop in BK's online stock, I went down and copped Amanda a Schwipe hoodie. Being the only store in NYC that carries this Australian brand, I was lucky to get their only small. So all day, I sat in anticipation, wondering if Amanda would like it. We're both a huge fan of geometric shapes and bright colours so I knew she'd at least act like she loved it. Well, I gave it to her tonight because I couldn't wait anymore... She loved it and looked at it in shock, almost disbelief. After a brief moment, she left and went into the bedroom. When she returned, she had a present for me. I opened it and it was the EXACT hoodie in the men's colourway. Made me smile.

Time Consumption

Many hours later, we're finally getting somewhere. This model, while formally simple is still very complex in its construction. With random fenestration and a very rigid structural grid, it's essential that everything is thought-out and assembled appropriately. Anyway, here's a few updated renderings. These are strictly lighting investigations. I've added some tone to distinguish the rammed-earth walls and the sand. Once I get the lighting down, I'll begin to add the oxidized steel texture, glazing and other finishing touches.

What is it?

Just thought I'd post an image of a project I'm working on. I can't really tell you what it's for or where it's going because it's a competition... Here's the model in its early stage. Expect more updates within the next few days. Enjoy

Trouble and Bass

I wanna apologize to the rest of NYC who DIDN'T make it out to this party last night. This party is getting coverage in Flavorpill and with sponsors like Mishka, the T&B crew have it on lock. They were handing out their "I will bass you" shirts to everyone too. It was packed. I'm not talking, "man, there's no room to sit down" packed, I'm talking "woah, there are like 40 heads tryin to get into the joint" packed. Boogaloo was probably over its capacity last night. MAD heads crammed into this Southside bar to hear the Trouble and Bass crew drop straight heavy bass. Star Eyes, Drop the Lime, Zack Shadetek and Mathhead were slamming down grime, dubstep, anthems, two step, garage and new tracks all night. The speakers were overheating, just like all the randoms who decided to come out this month. If the crowd continues to grow exponentially like this, there may need to be a bigger venue. Yes, the Trouble and Bass crew run this city when it comes to this music. There was a garage mc from London there saying how impressed he was to hear this in America. basssssssssssssssss
