Art of the Model, 1st Place
During spring break in 2010, Emily went home to Bozeman, and while there was invited to participate in a contest for architecture students interested in building design models. Sweet Onion Creations (www.sweetonioncreations.com), an architectural design model and rendering firm in Bozeman, sponsored the three-day competition and workshop for all interested students. Each student was given a 12-inch by 12-inch cube of architectural foam, some simple pieces of wood, and basic supplies to carve and create a building. The same block was also to be used for landscaping around their model. The group was to pay particular attention to cut costs on materials, saving time, and building their own custom tools.
Emily’s design was based off of a photo of a home she liked, but she added her own unique embellishments. She added a guest cabin with a covered porch between it and the main house. She drew up the plans in AutoCAD, including a full landscape, and started carving. Workshops were held each morning to help the twelve students learn carving techniques, how to work with specialized equipment, and how to create some features like foam pine trees from materials at hand to save costs. Professionals from Sweet Onion judged the completed models based on the notion of a continuous idea, cohesive design, and how well the concept and models were put together. Up against aspiring architects working on their senior projects, and being the only female of the group, Emily walked away with first place
