It's Beginning to Look a lot Like Christmas..

Getting into the Christmas spirit here at Rey 3. I got to help decorate all around the office, and put up the Christmas tree today. 

Some Rey3 Up in the Magazine


Finally got my hands on the ALEGRIA magazine where the place I do my mentorship was featured in. It looks fabulous. 
" Talking to Rey 3, one of the most diverse design and architectural firms in Los Angeles, I was impressed by their vibrant designs with Latin Flair and tremendous international appeal ." -taken straight out of page 47.

Blog 10: Senior Project Update


(1) What are you currently doing in your independent component? 
I just recently got rid of most of my Aunt's stuff in the patio, and it is ready to be decorated. Before you decorate, you need to come up with themes, ideas, and draw out your plans. I just took photographs of my patio to draw the changes that I want to make.

(2) What is a recent piece of research (article, interview, or audio-visual) that have you reviewed you would say was significant in helping you understand where to go next in your senior project?  The piece of research should be something you reviewed in November.  Please explain what you learned and where are you going next because of this piece of research.
My most recent piece of research that helped me understand where to go next in my senior project, is a blurb called, Creating a Decorating Plan. This research piece gave me ideas and steps I should complete now that the patio is ready to get worked on. It gave me tips on how to display my ideas in an organized manner.

(3) Provide evidence from your independent component or the piece of research as something you recently did.  For example, a photo of something you working on for your independent component or your notes from the video you watched. 
 
This is my patio. I took this photo after my Aunt's stuff was moved out. She was moving and gave us loads of her things, and this patio was earlier filled with her washer machine, dryer, refrigerator and boxes of her belongings. Now it is ready to get worked on!
