what i am going for .






these are some images i have been collecting to show what direction i want to go with my project. the first group of images, images of googie architecture & signage, is very different from the second group of images, typical new orleans shotgun/bungalow homes (with porches). because these two styles are extremely unlike each other, it would be interesting to see how i can design the exterior & interior to reflect both. the googie style represents the history of bowling alley design. the new orleans architectural style represents the history of the city..one in which rock 'n' bowl has had a large part in.


my two favorite pictures out of both groups are these two below. for the first, i like the manipulation of scale with the large light signage. for the second, i love the architectural detailing that accented with the colored lighting. it looks like an old shotgun house turned into a late night jazz club.

  2. I like these collages of pictures, it really gives a good impression of what to expect... you should use images like these for page seperators in your book
