After surveying all of the options for my education as a child, my parents chose to send me to a Montessori school in central Chicago. This decision would end up shaping the rest of my life, as it put me in an environment where I could explore my fascination with everything mechanical. This fascination came from an intrinsic desire that I have to understand how things work, so naturally I channeled that interest and the destructive tendencies of a young boy into taking everything apart that I…

The article I decided to pick for this assignment is by the media publication Complex and the interactive journalism piece is called "Project Runaway." The piece is about the behind the scenes making of Kanye West album, "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy." Complex Editor-in-chief Noah Callahan Bever would be with Kanye West for six months in the making of the album to do a cover story about it. Now what I really love about the interactive piece is how immersed you really feel in the piece.…

"Euro-Japanese" collection will be hanging in I. Magnin, Nordstrom's Agiatezza in New York, Madeline in Miami, and Lieleganza, Inc. in Pennsylvania. "I've always believed in the mix and match concept," said Martin who studied at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California. "I combine strong architectural shapes, Italian techniques, the shape and drape of the Orient and the casual aspects of the American lifestyle. I…

UNK Interior Design Classroom Evaluation College students spend a large amount of their time in a classroom. This argument becomes even truer when considering interior design students. Interior design students at UNK and other universities spend even more time in the classroom because of the work that has to be done on projects. Many late nights and extra hours will be spent in the classrooms provided by the university. The extra hours spent in these classrooms makes it very important for UNK…

Engineering is the branch of science and technology involved with the design, and building, and use of engines, machines, and structures. As long as I can remember, which was since I was seven years old, I had always felt a passion for doing something in designing and building imaginary cars, ships, and planes. But now that I have come to an age where I have to choose a career and go forth in life will be tough, but one thing is for sure, I will be an Engineer. The first engineering career that…

The career I am researching is manufacturing welding. I chose this occupation because I enjoy working with hands-on objects. Manufacturing welders produce a product that people will buy, or they can also identify production problems. Welding is the easiest way to permanently connect two pieces of metal. Their work activities may include controlling machinery, operating vehicles or equipment, and assembling metal or plastic parts. Welders’ tasks may include tending welding machines, inspecting…

passion for shoe design, influenced by his three sisters, first became apparent during high school where he spent most of his spare time sketching shoes. Louboutin, who was enthralled by sketching stiletto heels, devoted his late teenage life entirely to this obsession. As a result, he was expelled from four schools, but this certainly didn't negatively affect his chosen career path. Following school, he travelled around the world to Egypt and India, and received informal design training. These…

Building my own RC polystyrene hovercraft from scratch made me realise the challenges and difficulties one might face as an engineer. For instance, producing lift was a major problem, so I made many variations of propellers to find the most effective one. To me, the most enjoyable part of the project was overcoming the obstacles. I was proud and satisfied to see it work after weeks of tests and improvements. As a fan of remote controlled cars for many years, the idea of being an engineer…
