CNNC sketchbook

I began thinking about the needs of CNNC based on what we already knew. I also began to develop questions and developed how the spaces would be divided among each other

Welcome Mat

My welcome mat was based on the culture of Romania. In coming up with this mat I did research on the country to figure out how they live and how their culture is. In doing this I found that tourism is a huge contributor to their economy. It is very important over there. I also found out that the people are very friendly and our very inviting to tourists.
I decided to go with this idea of welcoming tourism to design my welcome mat. I used to colors of Romania and showed them coming together to form all three colors to show different people and different cultures coming into Romania. I decided on the shape because I was thinking of the idea of sharing and many people from different places coming to one. These were the ideas of Romania.
