I add strap for holding the foot, and I only add one , I want to keep it simple. I also show the mechanism(I use spring and Carbon Fiber as material) on the bottom to shoe how shoes can transform. The heels' material will be ABS Plastic, and the shoe's material will be cow leather. There are dual head screw to connect the heel and the shoe, one side will be in the Carbon Fiber board, the other side will be in the heel. Also , I add some color variations, I try to use cool and warm color feeling for each one. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gnomon Campus Redesign: I add gallery next to stage, and move security backward , put the reception at the front.Which will be comfortable for visitors from outside.

Gnomon Campus Redesign-International Style

1.Description: This my Gnomon campus Aerial view. I think natural light is really important, it can refresh your brain and make people feel good, so my main focus is to make Main building and Dorm to have natural light, since these two place are where student spend most of their time. I have another building especially for Restaurant/Coffee shop/Art store, I don't like the vending machine stuff, it's not healthy.

If it's just design for comfortable , it will be ugly. If it's just design for beauty, it will be painful. My design is to combine them together, and that's Elena-01.

For my materials, I will choose cowhide for inside and outside,which is very comfortable. And I will use wood to make the heel,which I think it's more

What is good design to me?

I think good design should be visually appealing, practical,simple. And I think the context of the design is also important! "Design is relationships. Design is a relationship between form and content"-Paul Rand<<Conversations with Students>> Form is like the appearance of the design, and content is the meaning or usage of the design. Architecture: Architect:Christian de Portzamparc Title:Chateau Cheval Blanc(Winery) Date:2011 Country:France Architect: Kris Yao Title: Wuzhen Theater Date: 2010 Country: China Architectures to me are where people stay and spend time at. They can be home, theater, school.....etc. Architecture is build for human to stay and live. So for the exterior, I prefer organic shape rather than geometric shape. It make me feel more related to the building , since human body are organic shape. Here is another reason why I like these two buildings. They all kind of dissolved into the environment, but also expose
