Harmony

In Interior Design we had to design a Christmas room that has harmony. Harmony is when"unity and variety are effectively combined." 


The theme of my Christmas room is silver and gold; just like the Christmas song "Silver and Gold." The color, and Christmas theme, gives the room harmony.

Kitchen for Family of 5

For this assignment we had to create a kitchen that will work for a certain amount of people, and what ever shape we think works best.


This is the floor plan of the kitchen that I designed. I made a kitchen that would work for a family of five. 


The shape I chose for the kitchen was the L shape with an Island. (Here is a link to other shapes) In the image above I have shown the space, or path, of where someone would prepare food. I believe that the L shape kitchen, with island, is the best for anyone (or any family) that loves to entertain. I also love this shape because when you are in the kitchen you don't have to feel so separated from everyone because the kitchen is open rather than closed.





Not only does the island and L shape kitchen give you more social space, it gives you more space to cook. When you have a big family, like a family of five. 


 I also made the kitchen pretty big because I'm guessing, from what I've seen, kids will be at foot of the parents.

Scale and Proportion


This week in Interior design we had to create a room with accurate proportions, and using items from Target's Threshold home line. Threshold is designed by Emily Henderson.



In this project I didn't exactly get use ALL Threashold items because of the color scheme I was going for. I did use quite a lot though!
