“Women in the design field have developed great business minds. They have become a visionary, a lot more oriented in finding solutions to the problems.” “My brother always said that one day women will rule the world. He may have been right. He saw me as a voice for all women.” “The great thing…is that…great business comes from great product…First you have to get the product right." Of course the trick isn't in wanting to make great products. It's being able to do it. It's all based on a fundamental belief that a killer product will bring killer profits. But what…has…changed is that "Men and women are now considered even in the creative field. The barriers and pressures we once faced have now come down."
Zhang does not go into detail about how she made her fortune… she says simply, “I’m an honest businesswoman…I remember what a man in the business told me back then...Quality is more important than quantity."
Says a leading tech CEO…: "God usually makes us either left brain people or right brain people. Steve seems to have both sides, so he can make extraordinary experiences." Jobs may be a multibillionaire, but that hasn't cut into his work ethic. With absolute control, breakout innovation, passion, and stellar marketing, he has created products that consumers lust after.
So what is…the secret... to their success? Analysts say there are many, but it starts with focus and a near-religious faith in his strategy. Jobs' true secret weapon is his ability to meld technical vision with…what regular consumers want and then market it in ways that make consumers want to be part of tech's cool club. Zhang's ebullient personality made her a great saleswoman and a savvy deal maker. “My desire has always been to be the leader in an industry.” According to Versace, "Behind every great woman there's another great woman." It's been a long struggle over 10 years but today it finally seems the girls are getting what they want, what they really, really want. Girl power.

UT2004 Final Developed Model
ElectroLiquid Aggregation quote:
If we do discover a complete theory, it should in time be understandable in broad principle by everyone, not just a few scientists. Then, together we must reestablish our connections with the natural world and with the Spiritual Power that is around us."
These images above represent Stephen Hawking's idea that a complete theory should be broad so that everyone can easily understand it, thus, the ramp opens up into the vastness depicting how a complete theory should be understood by the broad world, not only a few scientists.
Theses images exemplify the ElectroLiquid Aggregation quote by highlighting the relationships between one another through the interconnection of the ramps from one place to another, thus ultimately forming one unique bond.
This image illustrates Jane Goodall's quote of how people should re-establish our connections with the natural world and the Spiritual Power. Thus, I have used red lighting to symbolise this powerful connection, with the natural-looking textures on the walls and floor to illustrate our relationship with nature.

Axonometrics
The axonometrics from numbers 1-9 represent Jane Goodall's quote, in particular,depicting the ideas of connection and interralation with living things and each other. Thus, I have desgined the rectangular prisms to overlap, connect and penetrate through each other to exemplify the ideas in her quote.
The axonometrics from numbers 10-18 represent Stephen Hawking's quote of how a theory should be broad so that it can be understood by everyone, not just scientists, having unlimited accessibility. Thus, I have designed the rectangular prisims to be stretched, vast and interconnected, portraying the ideas of Hawking's quote.
