WWW: Overall, I think that my final design incorporates aspects of the louvre (my chosen architect/building) as well as the fact that the trophy
is aimed towards the young architect of the year 2019. My final design is annotated and includes measurements as well as my desired
material's and colors to symbolize this.

EBI: I think that the next step to improving my final design is to create it on tinkercad as well as another drawing/digital design page as this will
allow me to see my trophy with slightly varied textures, colors, fonts and designs.
