conceptual work and small scale design
A group project for Pratt Institute – Interior Design project to create a small space. CommunityConneX provides an area of expression throughout campus community (mush like writing on walls) to voice opinions, secrets and comments anonymously.
The idea behind the design is to create a ruin/maze like space, dissolving idea of ground and furniture where De Vera’s collection can be displayed.
There is no doors, but partitions which also display collected items and paintings where visitors and residents can explore and create own path.
Such design stimulates curiousy in the space and collections– its unifued.
Rather than the unit be completely controlled by De Vera or the other way around, both mutually compliment each other.
Materialistically, there is dark wood throughout the entire apartment, emphasizing the wood grain, blending furniture, doors and partitions and dark blue walls which help the collected art and pieces become scattered accents.
The goal is to create an interior where teens could express themselves as well as interact with it,
which would stimulate them to explore and use the library to it’s full potential.
It should be a space where they would feel comfortable and free while fulfilling all current interests and needs.
The two main emotions that surround the project are protection/barrier and comfort.
Those feelings would motivate curiosity, creating an adventurous and playful experience
