Proposed Design
The design we proposed was a closet inspired set that
featured a movable store-like window where Lisa can
kick-off the show.
The set also included replacing some of the back-walls with closet like displays that can be rolled in and out if needed. The normal square platform was turned into a large cirlce
giving Lisa and the models more room to stand.

display.

“THE AMERICAN DREAM” brandon washington personal work
“Anyone who can’t sell a bag of air with a dream
inside doesn’t deserve to call himself an American much less an art dealer.”
- Dave Hickey
On the anniversary of acclaimed designer/artist TobiasWong’s death, in celebration of his life I reinterpreted
his project Dreams.

PapairShoe
.41
“PAPAIR” brandon washington academic work
Designers: Brandon Washington, Yurri Mial, Robert BowmanType: Academic workYear: 2009* Selected for Design Philadelphia
A D.I.Y. shoe concept that is sustainable and eco-friendly
Papair uses an assembly process similar to the process used to assemble moccassins. Papair is constructed with-
out having to sew the shoe together. Papair has a sole that has more support than the usual flat sole of D.I.Y. shoes.
.42
“PAPAIR” brandon washington academic work
Assembling Papair’s Upper
Papair’s holes are pre-cut, and comes with two laces to assemble each shoe.Two laces are used to assemble the shoe and to attach the upper part to the sole. The laces have harden tips that makes it easier to feed them through the various, thoroughly aligned, holes throughout the shoe. No need for sewing needles.
.43Assembling Papair’s Upper
A toggle is used to secure the laces to the back of the shoe.
The toggle allows the user to adjust the fit of the back of the shoe to the foot. Since the laces are attached to the sole, tightening the toggle will make the back of the upper piece more secured to the sole.
.44
“PAPAIR” brandon washington academic work
Papair’s Sole
Papair has a rubber, sneaker like sole that is thick and has an arch support.
Papair’s sole is made out of repurposed rubber. Ther is a series of holes that the laces can feed through to attach the upper piece to the sole. The holes are
inserted into a channel in the sole to protect the laces.

PublicLighter Project
.53Designers: Brandon WashingtonType: Personal WorkYear: 2012
“LIGHTER PROJECT” brandon washington personal work
A project that repurposes vacant phone booths.
Being a cigarette smoker I often, like a lot of smokers, use these booths as shields during harsh winds and
rain. Seeing a lot of vacant phone booths in Philly, I felt that installing a lighter in these vacant booths was
appropriate. Eight around the city was installed near bars, nightclubs, and art galleries.
.54
“LIGHTER PROJECT” brandon washington personal work
First Attempt
The first attempt at the project was a learning experience.
The first lighter installation I ran into a few problems. The booth needed some type of signage and the first attempt was to spray paint the logo on the booth, which didn’t take to the metal. The lighter placement inside the booth was a little awkward also.
.55Project Features
The lighter is attached to the top of the inside of the phone booth.
A more prominent sign was created and attached to the top of the booth.
