IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 

When I saw the topic "Minimalism" my first thoughts were of minimalistic
interior design.  This gave way to playing around with a variety of interior
concepts with minimalist themes but none really seemed to exaggerate the
minimalism.  This line of thought eventually led me to the idea of a jail cell.
 The typical image that comes to mind when one thinks of a jail cell is about
as minimalistic as you can get.  There is enough furnishings to meet the basic
needs of life and little else.  There is a bed to sleep in and sit on, a toilet
for doing what we all must, and a slot for food to be passed in.  Concrete
floors and cinderblock walls.  No decoration, no luxaries, just the bare
minimum.

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

Much of this image is simply made of of primitives.

The toilet is a loft NURBS object.  The chains holding up the bunk are made up
of sweepNURBS making up each link and dupliciated. The sheets which were
proabbly the most difficult are a loftNURBS object as well.  I'm sure there is
a much better way to do them but fabric always scares me and so I work with
solid modeling when I can.  I did break from that with the pillow which is a
cube primtive with a Clothilde tag warping it around a distorted sphere.
