Hi brad,
I only uploaded the "source file" for one of the two drafts because i forgot to save the second one after taking the screenshots.
However the images are there so you can see what it looked like.

Thanks
John

Meeting space

2009-06-22T00:31:00.002-07:00

The meeting space is inspired by the strength of couples in business. This was the case for both Prada and Obama, but especially for Prada. The room is nearly symmetrical and has two of everything such as the stairs and the two ornamental poles. The poles signify the two parts in the partnership.
The Table and chairs are elevated to give them a powerful presence.

Table and chairs

2009-06-22T00:31:00.001-07:00

The table and chairs also reflect couples in buisness and is designed with four seats for the two celebrities and their partners. It is structured around the two high-rising poles which they can observe while seated.

The concepts behind Obama's office complex are the solid foundation he needs to build into the American economy and also Unity. The two seperate spaces are united only by the curved path which coincidentally is "U" shaped. One of Obama's objectives is to unite the countries of the world in these difficult times and encourage "working together".
The strong foundation of the building with its many stairs is what i used to represent the first concept.

Because I imported everything from sketchUp I had to separately group each part of the model and export it with its own material.

Prada's space (sketchup)

2009-06-22T00:21:00.001-07:00

For Prada's space I focused on the qualities of a successful woman in buisness.
These were thick skin and networking. The Former takes form in the thick walls and windows of the two main "flying disks". The networking quality can be seen in the general structure of the space and also by the pole structure inside one of the disks.

Obama
Prada
Madonna

A rapid means of escape for Mrs. Prada has already been refused by American firms.
She had already been selling cloths and accessories, and tailored services from the Eighties and Nineties designed by her paternal grandfather Mario in the Seventies.
US President Obama's initial observations on the former mime student with a PhD in political science and "scandal" had initially denied her the right to pursue the manufacturing of goods in countries like the US.
But sources at the Italian fashion Supreme Court in Milan say that Judge Carsten Holler is certain to dismiss her case today.
This although the rules were waved in 2006 when she told her secret of great obsession of outsourcing overseas jobs, tailored assessment services and adopting back-office operations in fashion superpower Milan.
The former member of the communist party's adopted daughter Madonna said that her clients all over the world reluctantly refused the scandal as just strategic politics.
The world's favorite designer has consistently pursued a very consistent and unusual aesthetic design and stays competitive.
She is expected to be in London today to touch the world with art.
She no longer just dominated Italian and overseas fashion, the management expert said she wanted to globalized the family business and will not stop, certain to succeed in a bid to invest in her competitive talent for art.

Actual quotes I followed and Keith Campbell's quote

2009-05-04T05:06:00.001-07:00

When I designed my unreal environment the main phrase which I focused on apart from the electroliquid aggregation for Jacques Cousteau's lab was this:
To reveal to the general public unknown and inaccessible places.

For Nobel I focused on the concept of nobel prize and his invention of dynamite not being used for it's intended purpose.

Keith Campbell quote - "We are not all mad scientists. We are not all looking to clone ourselves. The positive benefits that this may have for human therapeutic medicine and improving the quality of life for people with certain genetic disorders".

A gloomy vision

2009-05-04T03:53:00.000-07:00

The whole structure is a sinister and shadowy sight.
Not the kind of place where someone like Cousteau would enjoy working.
Or maybe it's just a gloomy day.........

The green light below the platforms of Jacques Cousteau's lab represents a room which is inaccessible to anyone. What lays inside is mystery

Texture from light to dark ,enter Nobel's refuge

2009-05-04T03:52:00.000-07:00

Upon entering Nobel's lab the visitor can experience the progression of light to dark textures on the curved walls.

Outside Alfred Nobel's lab

2009-05-04T03:51:00.000-07:00

The seven entrances to his laboratory represent each of the Nobel prize categories implemented by the scientist.
The largest of these symbolizes what may have been the most important of these awards in Noble's eyes, the piece award.

View of meeting point, "The inaccessible place"

2009-05-04T03:49:00.001-07:00

Here is the view from the balcony of Jacques Cousteau's lab. A visitor can experience the seemingly "inaccessible" and "unknown" places down below, which the ramp on the lower level leads to but there is no way of knowing this until he descends that ramp.

The meeting point is underneath the sloped roof. The idea behind this is "protection", because both famous men sought to protect something, whether it was the underwater world or preventing people from going to war.
The room is barely visible and well sheltered.

The ramp from Cousteau's lab to the meeting point is set on a steep incline which is impossible to walk on, the only option is to slide down and discover unknown endpoint which it reveals.

The second ramp is the sloped roof of the meeting point. This roof is being used for a purpose which roofs aren't usually meant for as was Nobel's invention of dynamite.

Jacques Cousteau's lab

2009-05-04T03:47:00.001-07:00

Jacques Cousteau's obscure lab is an image of gloom and darkness.
This ties in well with the electroliquid aggregation. Here in this lab I can imagine the great explorer sitting in despair, his dreams and hopes drowning as if underwater, the place which he always loved.
