I’m still working on figuring out what aesthetic I want to use for my project. I have the idea but I’ve toyed with a few different aesthetics to actually incorporate. I plan on doing a sleek design with dark stained wood and polished metal, so it may turn out to be a somewhat minimalist design. 
Above are two sketches I did of my design in different aesthetics, both featuring the spinning rim and the central iris mechanism. The one one the left is more of the minimalist design I think I might go with, while on the right is a more textured design with Eastern influences. In reality, I’ll probably pull from several different aesthetics to create an eclectic and polished look on my final design.

Hi Jonah, your ideas for the two different aesthetics in your sketches both seem like they would make interesting projects! How are you planning to keep a central focus for your project with multiple aesthetics all being incorporated in it?
Hi Jonah,
I really like the two designs you have come up with here. I also like the idea of using multiple aesthetics to get a final design you like. I personally have been having a hard time narrowing down to one aesthetic and so I might try out the same thing! Your drawings look great as well!
