Final Parti

Inspiration struck when reviewing the many models that the Freshman class in the interior design program had done. I loved how many of the students had chosen to cut out patterns in their models and I thought it would go well with my "implied wall", closed but open, concept of my project. I drew from my inspiration and made two circles, then I took my parti's radiating lines as guides for the cutouts. I made each cutout different for visual interest and added color, orange in the center fading to purple on the outside to mimic a glow, since my inspiration deals with light. The models rocked back and forth on its sides and the cutouts were very dynamic. I learned some new techniques from the Freshman and tried to keep it simple while adding much visual interest. I am very satisfied with my model and feel that a good concept model lends itself well to a good design.

Final Pattern

Textile

Taking one of the concept model partis, I made pattern out of it by mirroring and rotating that one block and transferred that pattern onto an actual piece of fabric. The analogous color scheme (orange, red-violet, and red) made the pattern pop! Emphasis was given to the lines networking the pattern together. Through this process, I learned how easy it was to make a pattern and how many different ways you could make a pattern. Also, the strategic placement of color can make the pattern look different, bringing emphasis to certain parts or other of the pattern.

The textile that arrived LATE was actually not what I was expecting. I was expecting brighter colors and the pattern was done too big, the test sample I had printed out on the plotter was much smaller and more compact. I do like the fabric, however, and would like to work with Spoon flower again.

Sketchup Kitchen

This is my first time using Google Sketch-up and it is a very user-friendly program! This is what my Grandparent's kitchen would look like from my final last semester. I adore the apple martini quartz countertops! This has made me want to download the program onto my laptop so I can instantly visualize my thoughts and ideas of interior spaces!
