Reflection
On friday 10th I fell a bit behind track so over the weekend I must finish off the rest of my design. I need to add all of my furniture and storages then I will be ready for my classmates to have a look at it and give suggestions. I found the moving of furniture hard and confusing because of the perspective so over the weekend I must figure that out as well so I can be able to finish my design to a good standard. On tuesday the 14th instead of getting my work marked I finished my plan, design, and investigation.
