After having got an understanding of using wire and straws. My porfessor Sunhee gave us homework to create 3 design ideas for our final Piece. With my three designs that are below, I still didn’t really understand the exact creation process for dominant and subdominant lines shows mainly in my first two design pages for they are more along the lines of fashion illustrations rather then a technical design. But my last design is far better as I had a clearly understanding of how to design a structure including things like negative/positive space, direction of movement and dominant/subdominant lines. This is why I choose my last design which is of a fruit bowl to be my final design.

Before making my final I make a prototype of my fruit bowl using wire and straw. After I had done that I decided I wanted by fruit bowl to be made of silver wire and tubes. I found creating my final fruit bowl rather technically hard as I accidentally kept making double layers which meant I had to go back and take them out and rework it. I did this until I was finally happy with it. Due to the materials I choose they are not strong enough to hold a lot of heavy fruit, but it can defiantly hold small amounts. I also think due to the final shape of this piece it could also be worked as either a head piece or even a lamp.
