Thomas Heatherwick


The obvious attraction to Heatherwick's work is the use of layers and overlapping of the materials. This makes the piece's more abstact and complex, it also requires you to look more closley at the object in order to identify all the different shapes and colours used.

Applied Arts

Applied Arts wasn't what I expected it to be like as I didn't realise we would be doing activities such as the metal work. Enjoyed the freedom we had to explore the different machines to create the cubes! However after a while I did find myself repeating techniques to often and therefore just filling space on the cube for the sake of it.
