Here's a little of what I've been getting up to...

Hello there,

Apologies for my absence, I've been one very busy student lately, so I thought I'd blog about my recent University submission. This was a group project and the brief was to design a studio to a very tight specification from the client for an old warehouse within Nottingham's Lace market quarter.

We had two floors to survey, observe and design according to the specification and the clients need and very small budget. The client insisted on recycling as much as possible and keeping the budget to the minimum. Our theme was a flexible space utilising local waste to create unique furniture with built in storage, DDA compliant floors, private offices and phone space as well as social areas. We created an environment that would be suitable for individual drop in clients as well as long term rental businesses looking for a design office to aid their creativity and work.

Heres the work below; I'd appreciate any feedback about the presentation sheet or any elements about the scheme. As said previously this was a group project and a 4 week deadline from start to finish. Initially my group of 5 IAD (Interior Architecture students) peers worked along side 4 AT's (Architectural technologist students) for the first two weeks. We then separated to produce two individual A2 presentation sheets to communicate our design and ideas for the client.

Some of the visuals did not show up on my Mac's preview but hopefully the above image portrays our design and gives you an understanding of my groups approach to this project.


Many thanks for reading,
I'll be back soon,


Hannah
