Step 2 and 3

A) Since i started working in a cafe i aspired to make coffee that presented well. To achieve a Rosetta on a coffee, all the ingredients have to be right; the espresso shot, the milk, and the pouring technique. I have been experimenting for a few years now, concentrating on symmetry at present.


B) This is architect Scott Balmforth's residence in Hobart. It is a warehouse conversion which has maintained the raw, tough, industrial feel which is why i like it. It has views from front to rear with the garage incorporated into the building as a foyer. Externally, the original characteristics have been maintained, while inside, there has been a clever transformation of this big open space. The mezzanine levels view to the living area is screened with mesh sheets. Light is let in through skylights on the high ceilings.




C) Why beautiful? This is my friends Ducati 999R (top of the line, limited edition) with 0 km, sitting untouched, in mint condition in his living room on the 9th floor. To me, someone who appreciates bikes, this is incredible and beautiful. To look at this bike, a piece of motorcycle history, and know that it has never seen the road and may never, just strictly there to admire, is a beautiful thing.

Step 4

Hall: Today, destroying, materialistic
From the gallery "Tender", this bird's nest is made from shredded American one dollar notes, making their monetary value not so immediately obvious. The notes are interwoven and thinly sliced.




Moffat: failure, accepting, disconnected





Gascoigne: city, commuting, chaotic
Goscoigne uses these well known yellow and orange road signs that have been weathered for long periods. She collects these pieces from the country side and country dump, searching for articles with life in them, usually old and battered. The signs are pieced together with a blow torch to make a sort of grid formation. The bold black letters help form the grid with the contrast of horizontal and vertical placement.
