This is my first try at creating a sketchup model. This represents two words. The top word is stand and the bottom is balencing.

This is another sketchup design. model/variation #2

This model was created using sketchup and was another attempt at making a completley different structure. Although I think I will end up going with the first model.

Image number 3. Something beautiful

This is an image of the panoramic views of Melbourne CBD which I took . when I was in
Melbourne earlier this year. This is the view from the Observation Deck on the 57th floor of Melbourne's Rialto Tower which enables customers to experience 360 degree views Melbourne. This is a truly beautiful site to take in the beauty of a superbly architecturally designed city. Also in the picture you are able to see the recently completed Eureka Tower, one of the tallest residential buildings in the world let alone the country.






This is beautiful to me because the skyline is littered with deep and rich architectural heritage. On one side you are able to see the largest casino in the southern hemisphere and their surround first class five star hotel and entertainment complex. And on the other end of the spectrum you
are able to view the oldest goal in the country, Melbourne Goal.

This is an image of Melbourne's federation square. I took this
photo on a recent visit to Melbourne earlier in the year. This building and the
surrounding ones are able to capture the brilliant architectural and design
thinking and imagination that went into these buildings. It is the pinnacle of abstract design and free flowing imagination.














This image was also taken on my trip to Melbourne this year and it is a beautiful sunset over port Melbourne taken by myself from Victoria harbour or now known as Docklands in Melbourne's south west. I have always had a of spot for a great sunset. Its like
the changing of the guard. Form light to dark. from day to night.







I have shared more than one image with you, that I believe s beautiful. But as you may well see that it is difficult to choose only one.

Image number 2. Something that inspired me to become an Architect

This image of the Millau Bridge in France has significance in my desire to become an architect because of not only the overall aesthetic appeal but also uniqueness and overall astonishment that the design is really a working structure. This bridge was designed by Norman Foster a British architect, and is one of if not the largest (Height) bridge in the world at almost 1000 feet above the Tarn River. I is approximately 1.6 miles in length. What strikes me about this is not only the uniqueness of the design but the innovation of bridge design that has come along with it.

This is truly a site to be amazed by.

This is another image that has ignited the desire to become and architect or study architecture. It is a picture of the original Monte Carlo Casino in Monaco, France on the Riviera.

This is the pincalle of all casino's, it is what they aspire to be, itis the original the best and as stated in the post prior (Image number 1) I have a fascination for hotel/Casino/ entertainment complex design and development. This fascination or obsession has come about through the intrigue of what goes on inside and basically the incedible interior and exterior designs, which sets them appart from the rest. Also from watching alot of James Bond movies.

This image is special to me because it represents one of my many inspirations to become an architect because portrays so many different facets of design areas and also it is what area of Architecture I want to eventually end up in. The casino image is able to incorporate several different worlds of entertainment under one or inside one structure. It is the area of architecture that drew me into further increasing my my architectural knowledge. Therefore inevitably I wish to pursue a career in casino design and development.

Image number 1 My best design/work from high school

These photos of my completed year 12 Design and Technology Major Design Project (MDP). For this work I received the highest honor for this work, a nomination for the Powerhouse DesignTech display of outstanding and unique year 12 Major Design Projects.

This poker table was designed with 15 factors of design in mind, including aesthetics, ergonomics, recyclable materials, energy etc... I also used several various techniques such as story boarding side shows and photo graphic records of construction to express , my ideas and creativeness throughout the designing and construction process.

The finished design is an elongated octagonal shape that includes a uniquee chip storage device for 1,000 plus chip, cards, dice and other items.

This design was created through the use of numerous freehand sketches and CAD designs, which enabled to gain different perspectives and better express my thoughts and ideas throughout the creation process.

This work was inspired by my fascination since a young age with design, structure and architecture that Casinos and their entertainment facilities encompass.

This image not only represents an significant accomplishment in design and constriction on my behalf, but most importantly I am proud that I am able to create unique and aesthetically appealing designs/works.
