Do not seek to change what has come before. Seek to create
that which has not.
—DAVID AIREY
Mishayla Retimana: I seek to create and design new, exciting
and inventive products that focus on improving standards of living worldwide. I
am a loud and friendly personality who likes to be remembered and I believe
this characteristic comes through in my designs as I want to create
unforgettable, creative, unique and timeless designs much like my favourite
designers Gaudi and Frank Lloyd Wright. The work of Gaudi inspires me every
day. I love the organic forms and repetition of shapes created in the
foreground and background. The flowing shapes create harmony and balance
throughout his designs, and the unique style means the design is timeless and
cannot be categorised. However I believe my personal designs are usually more
similar to Frank Lloyd Wright these being clean, geometric and modern, so much
so that the style is timeless. So I am
trying to create new and try organic shapes for a change and repeat some Gaudi
inspired elements. I am a strong believer in sustainable products, and
eco-friendly designs as it adds extra functionality as well as preventing
environmental harm. I decided to go to design school as my mum is a sculptor
and so I have been raised in a creative environment continuing this throughout
my school life, and loving the creative subjects so design school was an
obvious choice. Victoria University was my first choice as I found the
university courses a lot more flexible for what I am hoping to succeed in compared
to other universities. I am currently planning on studying for a Bachelor of
Design Innovation- Industrial, with my goal being a designer of playground
equipment or child toys because I am still a child at heart.
