Project 3

project3_ARCHITECTURE + NATURE_the client

Design a space of approximately 300 square feet that speaks to the ideas explored in your graphic layout while maintaining a relationship with the original found landscape. The project scale remains 1/8” = 1’-0”. You are designing a space for a person now and will thus have to consider human scale. Based on who your client is, your new design will incorporate their needs and desires:

CLIENT_DESIGN REQUIREMENTS
Archaeologist_Gallery Space for found artifacts
Astronomer_Interior / Exterior observation space
Secret Agent_Enclosed “hide-out”
Rock Star_Practice Area / Performance Stage

Take your landscape from project 2 and being to incorporate your client’s needs and desires. Do not forget human scale! Continue to draw from your chosen word and from your understanding of point, line, plane, and volume to inform the decisions you make.

The design of this new space will require you build another series of process models, including in each the found landscape constructed in chipboard as well as the new intervention.

Strive to keep your solution for this client simple. Strong designs are often the result of just a few specific, effective moves. Keep your mind open and be creative, as always.

Design Parameters

Heed the design parameters from the phase one description sheet. You may add and subtract from your kit of parts as needed for this phase of the project, giving you the freedom to determine your own needs.

Goals

To use the specific needs of a client to inform design
To create a dialogue between new and existing
To clearly express ideas in two and three dimensions
To design for the scale of a human
