Mashup displays a very interesting intepretation of power, and how each person uses it, but is also influenced by it. the changing text size made it somewhat difficult to read coherently, but did highlight the different clients particularly well.

Perspective use interaction well, with success across both two point and one point perspectives. My favourites are those that meld together the simple letter shapes to creat something new. The perspectives with low horizon lines are most powerful and engaging.

The custom textures are cleanly and effectively displayed. they have a very raw, free flowing, organic feel to them, which creates interesting personal intepretations of the 3 words, and 3 selected words. Whats most interesting is the common threads throughout each texture set of 6, which really suggest a personal style emrging.

The elevators contain personal touches for each client, but it would be interesting to see where the idea for Obama's elevator came from. It has the feel of an ornamentation of an ancient culture, whereas madonna's is very superficial/material.

The diding table is an interesting concept, with repeated/common forms throughout the structure of the space and the table. it really isolates both clients perhaps for a more serious discussion than for just a meal.

Overall, a very interesting design that has great potential. To maximise success, try to continue the strong, bold themes that are present in your work up to this point.
