My name is Mathew Brunton. I am 18 years old, i live in wellington and have done all my life. My two main interests are sport and design. I have spent my college life mainly taking the subjects of art and physical education. Last year was my last at college and i completed two portfolios, one for art painting and the other for art design. I really enjoyed the design course i did in my last year at school and is one of the reasons i wanted to do a BDI at university. I am a very hands on person and like to be involved in making and constructing things especially smaller and detailed objects or items. I would much prefer to spend my time studying doing design than anything else purely for the fact that i like to be very open minded and creative. My aspirations in design aren't exactly too clear to me at this stage however i look to be able to be hands on in my approach to my study and have an active involvement
