Saluki Design

One Wheel By: Ted Peterson
Materials: Glass, recycled wheel spokes

I guess it makes sence that the first post I make is about a piece done by a friend of mine at SIU. What I love about this piece is how beautifully the salvaged pieces have been joined together. It some times amazes me what good designers can do with scrap. I think the aspect that really sets this piece off is the flow of the color from the yellow to white. I believe that I remember Ted talking about how with it all one color it seemed to run together too much, so to aliveate that he added the white corner to take some of the edge off. (This does make me think about where my stolen bike tire might have ended up.)
