Final project


Sorry about the delay posting this but last week was hectic and involved flying to Ireland at the last minute!

Well, this is it! The final plan, elevations and product boards. Plan and elevations were painted with watercolours and crayons (our tutor was old school so no computers involved). Normally you wouldn't paint over the original drawings, but we had to, which led to disaster in more than one occassion (see kitchen floor)!!


The photograph doesn't show it but the walls are light grey (Blackened by Farrow & Ball).

   
Product board for the living room (Dinesen flooring and Turner painting, because there was no budget!).
The boards don't show all the furniture that goes into the space (there is loads!), they are meant to give a general impression of how the space feels and looks like.

  
Product board for the kitchen. The wallpaper only covers the wall than runs in front of the Andy Warhol zebra painting next to the dining table (see on the plan) and the rest of the walls are painted in light grey. The floor is covered in grey Montauk slate and the Mobalco kitchen and dining table are white glossy.



I feel like I learnt a lot in 12 weeks, thank you Richard and Chelsea College of Art and Design!

Project Ideas

  I saw this table at Skandium and fell in love! I have chosen a smaller size to use as a lamp table nex to the sofa.


 Okay, four weeks left!!! But don't panic, just choose furniture, flooring, curtains, wall colours, lighting, window frames, kitchen layout... oh dear! But it's so much fun at the same time (until the teacher tells me everything's wrong? Hope not).
So you see I need to write about it to relax (women of a certain age will use the word "therapeutic"). I have chosen a few interiors that have inspired me and from which I have taken certain elements to add to my project. In the next few days I will show you the project's plan and elevations.


Moroccan pouffe for my client's cat.



Black slate tiles for the kitchen floor (the furniture will be mainly bright white).



Long see-through white curtains for the living room. A plus if they are like in this picture longer than the wall.



Antique blanket trunk as coffee table.



This is a similar layout to mine (sofa facing two armchairs, with rug under the coffee table and side table with TV.)
