I just finished presenting my design thesis project. The last two months went something like this for me: mid-critique|baby|sell house|job interview|travel|present thesis|document thesis|present again for award|graduate. Here's the final product.
It's been a great year....let me credit the contributors.
Design Thesis Mentor
Chris Ford
Design Thesis Critics
Jeff Day
Martin Despang
Hyun Tae Jung
Keith Sawyers
Guest Critics
Lori Brown
Doug Jackson
Bonus:
I was in my Viticulture and Oenology class when the paparazzi found me. Great class...I sampled 8-12 wines a class and received 3 credit hours for it. In all fairness...it was a tough class.

i should have just become a somalier (sp?) .....
congratulations on finishing up arch school. Best of luck with the future
I know your busy, but what is it exactly? Looks cool.
hah hah college is fun, especially drinking from your nose!
I love the spread. It definately gave me that rush usually associated with presenting
very cool. It looks lile you used an engine gasket as a source of form inspiration? The model stands are quite beautiful.
did you like Lori Brown? I had her for a guest juror last semester, and really enjoyed it.
The benefit to a year long thesis is the afforded opportunity to try tactics and fail. The final scheme I produced is one of many possibilities. I critiqued and analyzed the objects from the matrix and used their properties to influence the end scheme.
Danny Willis- Lori Brown was great. She had the ability to grasp my project and critically analyze it expediently for its future potential. She and Martin Hogue were actively involved in the 07' MArch thesis presentations and were much appreciated by everyone.
I really like the process. I think I might be in love <3 haha
I still can't believe you received academic credit for drinking wine...
nice project man.
congrats alex, and well done.
man, that newspaper photo is awesome, you and the other guy in the foreground looking all sophisticated with your eyeglasses and lifted pinky fingers, then the guy in the background with a baseball cap throwing his wine down quick.
by the way, i noticed your name in the recent issue of Arch Record (Record Houses), in the project credits for the house you posted in the "design build internship" series from last summer. must have been a blast to work on that...
Hello, I am considering going to UNL, what are your thoughts about the school?
