Final Image Captures
[products. compartmentalise.]
[walking the plank]
Job's makes his products seem so desirable from the outside. Yet he makes sure that no one can see the underhanded methods he uses to get to that spot. No words will come out of the hidden production area, lest the speaker fall from the sky.
Power. The world. It spins. Just as dynamic as the cogs of a well-oiled consumer market. And also just as precarious of a position if you were to be depending on threads that weren't so thick to begin with.
The death of Giovanni, signified by the cross of the window. Yet the family legacy lives on and continues as a reflection in Donatella. The power remains within the name despite his death. Donatella needed to be able to rise up and become seen again as her own person (the glass bridge) to be able to stand next to her brother, yet autonomously, in the same power that he held.
Other Movers
the constant changing consumer market. up. down. left. right. 180.
the link between the production and consumer side
the marketing strategies constanly change as meetings take place and then disband
[The meeting place itself was supposed to rotate, but troubles arose when figuring out how to get an avatar into a rotating prism, so instead...] the 'threads' twist.
Table and Movers
Table
The tables are interlinked around a globe.
Versace's side has raised sides and two near-identical front ornaments indicating the power that surrounds the family name. It has symmetry about one axis and heavy set legs to represent a foundation that gives rise to consistency in power.
Jobs' half is balanced on a single point, cantilevering against the giant claw which serves to take over the globe and bring back profits to his side. His partner would sit on the right of him, slightly forward of him. Jobs can then watch his partner test the water before he risks himself. The razor edges at the partner's position indicate a possible danger to them.

Jobs' Mover
(see "Jobs' Mover in UT" for the concept)
Versace's Mover
The two interlinked spirals represent the family power. The left half is raised above the right half to signify Donatella Versace's growth after the death of her brother.

Versace and Meeting Place Ideas
Following on from the 2nd page of 't' perspective ideas:
The iPod Nano <3 Lanyard X ...
...gives me ideas for my meeting place,
linking both Jobs (iPod) and Versace (necklace, grandeur).
Fashion and the feminine figure are also an influence.
A constrast of Donatella before and after Giovanni's death influences the facade's glazing. Less glazing on the left (Donatella is hidden), more on the right (after 'discovering' herself).
Frames of opposed windows reflect Giovanni's death (cross) and Donatella's newly opened door (cross-hatched to a door-frame shape).
Movement is from Giovanni's (left) side, rising into the limelight of the catwalk, and returning to her own half (right) to a state of power similar to that of her brother's.
