Doll´s house


Today I´m going to talk about a new that consist in a dollhouse that was made by an architect named Sir Terry Farrell. This architect of the M16 HQ made in the year 1981 and the house doll was inspired by a sketch that his son did when he was eight years old who suggested a “space city”. Platforms, escape hatches and landing pads and space toys structured the dollhouse. It was expected to fetch about $1000 in an auction.
I chose this new because I think that is crazy that Terry Farrell competed among 300 other architects to do the best dollhouse, and now it is so expensive. I think that is beautiful that he got inspired by the creations of him child and make his dreams real. Now his son, who is 40 years old now, is thinking about offer to get the house for his daughter, because that giant toy of 176 cm brought him back many memories.

Free time

Well now I don´t have much free time, because I pass my time in the university almost all the day and I arrive too late to my apartment. One of the thing that I do when I don´t have to study is play with my bunny, it's just one month old, it's a really good company and It´s a good distraction. I think that adopt a pet help me to reduce the stress and now I feel a little better. The other thing that I do in my free time is pass the time with my boyfriend, we usually go out to eat something like sushi or fries, also we stay in home seeing movies or playing smash Bross, but now he is on Quillota and I won´t see him in a lot of time. The hobbies that I had before to start this career were: play voleyball, paint, play instruments, take pictures and do exercise all the time, but now I can´t do all that thing because I don´t have enought time, the only that I want is be on vacations to recover all the good habits that I had before. The unique thing that I still doing is draw, b

A really important book for me

Today I' m going to write about book that help me too much in this career. The last semester I didn't know anything about architecture and I decided to search for books that could help me to learn more. The teacher gave us to many bibliography to read and one book that I still using is the book of Francis D. K. Ching called Manual De Dibujo Arquitectónico, this book helps me so much, because it's has to many draws and is to easy understand how to repeat the technique. I really like this book because the sketches  are perfect, it has a lot of topics, from technique things like how to do cuts, elevations, location plans, textures, etc. even how to do better sketches teaching techniques to do different types of shadows, of textures and the proportions of the human body. Thanks to this book I can express better my projects because all the ideas has to be explain with draws and diagrams, and is something that you don't learn at the school, it´s a skill that you have to devel

My favourite project

I´m going to talk about my favourite project that I did the last semester. I was in Taller Saavedra and we did a lot of works. First we started with abtract models, and this consisted on go to different places to analize them and extract a concept, then we had to do a model inpirated on the concept. The most difficult part of the last semester was the months before the strike, because all the class had bad marks and all my classmates were scary. During the stike we continued working, we didn´t rest, because the last projects had a lot of percentage, so we decided to take advantache of the big period of time that we got to progress our ideas. The project that we were doing when the stike started consisted on make a house for one character. We had a lot of options like the painter, the cooker, the dancer, the mad, the addict, etc. The teacher gave us the character and we could exchange it. My character was a magician and I had to search information about the personality of this kind o
