Take Me Home

   This is the Final project for our studio in this semester.
   My project call "Take Me Home," I choose this title because of my song, which is the inspiration for my entire project. My song is called "Country Road" it is talking about a person who is in far away and want s to come back to home. So in this project, I chose the "contrast" which represent the cool and warm because I think far away means cool, and home means home, as my principle. Also, there is two more principle "Dominent" and "Movement," these two principles are also came from the song. First of all, the client of our design is a photographer with their family, and their parents. So they want two apartment at same floor. So this is one of the challenging part of our design.
   FIrst of all, the gallery in the main family's room shows my concept very strong. It is a very dominant because it is in the center of the room, it is also moving because of the form, and it is a "contrast" in the floor because most of wall is straight but it is curve so this create a very strong my concept idea. Also in the Grandparents room, I put the dominant fire place, and the moving kitchen. Moreover, the color using in my design creates the contrast between warm and cool. Mort of walls in this house is unpainted brick it represent warm and country, and 3 walls are black painted, these are the gallery's, grand parents' living, and the wall in grandparent's fire place, so these creates the very beautiful contrast.
Thus, all my design is followed my concept idea, and creates a very nice space for our clients.

VIsit professional during the Thanks Giving

During the Thanksgiving, I visited Bobbi Jean Wood who is an interior designer in Bernard | Wills Architects P, Spokane. She is a very good interior designer and their firm also very good. In this visit professionals, I brought my final project and try to get some ideas. First, I showed my plan to her, she thinks its not bad, but she want to see how the ADA works in my plan. And then, she told me we should think how people feel comfortable with your design. For example, the requirement for door wide is 36in, but it will be nice with 48in for wheel chair people. I think this is a very important things for interior designer. We need to concern how people feel, because we create the space for people.  

Context Poster

     In this assignment, my group studied about the accessible universal residential design. The universal design is a very interesting topic also very useful for our next ID project.
     We found two case-study for our poster as an example, but it is very hard to find two example for the universal residential design because the most of universal design is for commercial or hospital building, and there are only a few universal residential design in our country. The universal residential design should no be very obviously for disability people, it should be looks like normal. And it is not especially for disability people, it also wants to be used by everyone from children to senior.
    For this poster, we used many specific examples and pictures for determine our viewpoint, but it included so many information, so the poster became very busy. Thus, we added the color block for separating the information so the poster became easy to look.
