Good Friday Morning.

I know I don't need them I guess but post titles are hard to do - something other than just the same old same old.....

Been looking at design concepts - nothing specific, just general design - architectural, interior, landscaping, workstations, furniture - all sorts of things.
Make me want to design things.
Always wanted to design cars or planes - used to make all sorts of balsa model planes - flying ones.
Made a semi scale model of the WW2 Lancaster bomber - even put engine nacelles and wheels on it. Flew way to fast because it was too heavy.
Made models of things like x-wing and tie fighters from star wars - they flew too, but the tie fighter was a bit unstable and the x-wing was almost a dart.
Drew heaps of cars when I was growing up - some cartoon, but some more serious design attempts.
A few were pretty good too I thought, but most likely impractical.
Done entirely on looks with no regard to how a person would actually fit, or any of the systems that a car needs to actually work.

There is some impressive design around though - even in things as simple as a chair - very simple but really stylish designs, that even look like they might be comfortable.
Mind you some seriously silly looking lights and things too. One that was commended in an article was a ring with wires hanging down from the roof  and draped over the ring, with bare light bulbs on the end of the wires. They said it was stylish and modern, but to me it looked lazy and messy.

I guess it is a good thing that everyone is different, but that would never be in my home.

Some things are definitely not my style, but I can appreciate the design and style of them.
A desk set that was way too fussy looking for me, but I can see how well sorted the layout and design was.
I would rather have a different style.

I still doodle ideas and thoughts but most of them end up finding their way eventually to the bin.

I don't have the time, means, or skills, to make more of them than thoughts - and most probably wouldn't end up being worthwhile anyway.

Have a good day, and make time to read God's Word.
