Week 6

Our assignment was to come up with an elevator pitch for a new iphone app or product that would appeal to designers. Then, a few students in our class pitched their ideas to the class in small groups in the elevator in our building! The activity was enjoyable and a great way to hear about the new ideas of our peers and get out of the classroom for a while.

Have you ever been to a museum and wondered more about the art than what was provided on those tiny little description cards. What if I wanted to know more than what type of media was used? By creating an online database with thousands of artists, complete with an archive of their complete work ranging from sculpture to paintings, users of this app would be able to search and view other pieces of art done by that author and similar authors. By taking a photo of the picture, the app would identify the picture and bring up a list of other pieces of art done by that artists.” – RS

Imagine if all the architecture students in a studio had a networking site where they could post their projects and ideas. The network would be a place where students could document their work, upload assignments, stay in touch, and organize events, competitions, and surveys. Professors and students in the school of architecture (or even all of FAA) could learn from one another by browsing each other’s current and past projects to get inspired and learn from all the different studios.” – CR
