I decided to go back and flesh out my initial thesis idea which was to start a design studio, called CleverGreen, that explores integrated sustainable design. I am still planning to create my solar-skinned sculpture as part of my thesis but I plan to expand on several other ideas and concepts. So the sculpture falls under sustainable technologies part of the CleverGreen design studio and the other two areas that will be explored sustainable materials and sustainable systems. Out of frustration with my writing for thesis I decide to “design” a pitch for CleverGreen and try to visually articulate my ideas. For my final thesis presentation I plan on leaving out the sustainable systems part of the pitch. I think the sustainable technologies and materials part of the project are more related and will be easier to explore in tandem. So this was the initial pitch. I plan on doing a revised version that explores more of the details of the company. Hopefully the next time I put this together it will be in some sort of online slide presentation format. All the more reason for me to get going on designing a site for the domain name I bought: www.clevergreendesign.com.
