Travelzoo Trade Show Booth Design

27 Mar

Kwah-li members designed a trade show booth concept for Travelzoo.com.  The concept centers around lounge and bar style seating groups accentuated by a key feature wall, information kiosk and a large, ceiling-hung sign. Together they create an inviting environment for the trade show attendee.

I’M BACK…

20 Sep

It’s been awhile.
Let the ideas flow…..

ORB

3 Feb

ORBS: A Fluid Lighting System. I’m sure there is some factory in China that can churn these things out in mass. Turn them upside down to switch off.

Scatter them about.

Contain them.

a slice into the new year

4 Jan

in any event the new year brings new arguments
such as the humility argument to hypocrisy
and the dimension based time argument to the mental based time
our new year brings an indisposable argument about the inspiration of life
and that is death
in order to complete this argument, same as a student may know an answer to geometry before the proof, shall you receive the solution at the beginning of the new year.
granted its a knife. and WTF
well, here we are.

MENORAH MODERN

9 Dec
Here is my design for the Steelcase Menorah + Wreath competition. It’s clean lines, clever design and DIY inspired roots seemed to be a shoe-in as tops this year. I have to say, I think this is probably one of my best designs. This was produced with the following tools: chop-saw, drill, saws-all and a mitre box.

But alas, a piece bullshit NON-MENORAH eyecandy from SOM took first prize. Their entry was not a menorah, but rather an elaborate vacuumed-formed, CNC cut candelabra that could only be produced in SOM’s high-tech model shop. With total disregard for the Jewish faith and ceremony, they took it. Which leads me to believe that, as always, a total defiance of rules will always win a competition.

The Flying Pig & derby days

24 Aug

to keep the inner child in my my in charge

Portland Soapbox Derby

The Flying Pig
  39 entries   lots of speed cars, not so many art cars. save for this gorgeous wine barrel beast.
the pig had a sketchy first run, ended up fish tailing 180 degrees around the “learning curve” because the tail was too light.
the 2nd and 3rd runs were tight, 1:15 a piece, course record being 1:13
unfortunately the pig wasn’t able to place due to the first infraction ruining our time average.

The pig’s graphics were cre
ated by the driver Dave Ewald. T-shirts were given to the team.
