Final Project "A Place of Our Own" Loft Design

Our final studio project was designing our own loft in Downtown Spokane. Our first assignent was to read the novel "A Place of Our Own" by Michael Polland. From there I chose a quote and constructed a 3-D model and conceptual sketch of the selected quote. Next, I wrote a narrative story intended to tell the audience what my ideal ideal space would consist of and from there I blended all of the elements of my sketch, model and narrative into one design conept. The concept embodied all of the design relationships and elements of Couer d' Alene and lake setting as the basis of my ideas. I also included a material board to help understand my concept.

Photoshop Pattern Making

For this image I started with manipulating 6 different photos to come up with a square. From there I rendered the image three times with markers and colored pencils and mirrored the images for a final pattern. From this assignment, I designed principles in two-dimensions and demonstrated that I understood color theory, hand rendering and digital techniques.

Color Harmonies

I have selected illustrations of color harmonies and identified the type of color theme through reviewing the traditional color wheel. I have also identified the color schemes and accents using paint chips.

Rendering Sketch

Here is an example of rendering using markers and colored pencils.
