Form & Function

Expression of Truth and Beauty

The main purpose of this project is to get us to understand how form and function go hand in hand. In this project, we were tasked to make a functional opening that fit within an already existing bridge, and making sure it fits and works properly

We were also told to find objects for everyday use, and attempt to incorporate it into our bridge design. They must be used to make an opening of 30'x40', and must fit properly in the bridge

The lamp in this scenario was going to be the one that worked the best and fit the best, using the least amount of space, and being efficient. The only difficult part of this process is working around the bridge in order to make sure the opening doesn't collide with the bridge. Although this is a simple design, it proves to be efficient.
