Domus Academy 08 | Master Thesis

So this week was the official kick-off of the Final Thesis at Domus Academy, MA I-Design.  The topic which I’ve decided to investigate and work on is the topic of “LIGHT EMITTING DESIGNS” aka LEDs.

Essentially we are required to design an interactive light piece.  This blog will serve as a medium for me to archive and share my research and works-in-progress as I develop my Master Thesis.

Of course, comments are welcome.  Cheeeeeeers!

It captures a concept for how to interact and navigate through an operating system built on stories and relations.  The design aims to provide a powerful collaboration environment, while incorporating simplicity and an easy to understand organic structure of navigation.
