Bio Client Summary Client Profile My client is a female in their ealry 40's in a house of three and a dog. Their style of choice is Mid-Century Modern, and their main colour palette are neautrals, with accented green and orange. Their fabric choices are leather, wood, and velvet. Summary cont. Client Portfolio This family of three entertains small numbers of guests periodically, so they'd like an open living room with extra seating. They enjoy arts and crafts so a coffee table, and other storage spaces, as well as tasked lighting are a must-have. Mid-Century Modern: History Archetectural Style Visual Mid-Century Modern is a mix of the US High Prairie Style and the German Bauhaus Style. The style we know today were brought to the US by German architects fleeing Nazi Germany during WWII. Famous architects during this time were Frank Lloyd Wright, who was the “face” of modern design, Marcel Breuer, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, and lastly, Walter Gropius. Architectural Features There are THREE styles - Contemporary - International - Organic Contemporary style was the most popular one of the three. It focused on floor-to-ceiling windows, exposed beams, and natural/organic materials, including brick, stone, and wood. International style were simple-feeling, with no decorations and were made with concrete or stucco. Organic styles primary objective was to infuse the natural elements and surroundings within the house. This means an Organic Style Mid Century Modern house would look different in different biomes, ex. Desert v. forest. This style included houses using more organic shapes and lines, instead of sharp and right angles. Architectural Style Picture Furnishing Plan Furnishing Design Plan A Furnishing Plan is all about chosing pieces of furniture that are cohesive to each other, and to the client's profile. For this plan I've chosen pieces that compliment the color palette (accented neutrals), and fabric palette (wood, velvet, and leather) Design Schematic Board Design Schemantic Board Furniture Selections This chair was the first piece chosen by the client and from there I chose furniture that matched this chair specifically. Leather couches are great for pets because they're easy to clean. The beige fabric compliments the other pieces in the room as well as the overall aesthetic. The dark wood adds a contrast to the couch and chair, and this will hold the TV and double as storage for any electronics. Furnishing Plan Specifications These pieces in total cost 1,361.71. The chair is 314.99. The couch is 546.73, and the entertainment center is 499.99. Lighting Plan A lighting plan is similar to the furnishing plan, where light fixtures and bulbs are carefully chosen for each individual space. Lighting plans are very important because they determine the 'mood' of the spaces you're creating. There are four basic types of light bulbs; soft white, warm white, bright white, and daylight. Lighting Plan The Plan For this plan the specification list is rather small. three fans, a tweleve pack of six inch recessed lighting for the home, and lastly two twelve inch recessed lights. This totals $878.87 Lighting Plan Accessories Plan An Accessories Plan is simply a plan that enhances a room design. For this client, i've chosen a few accessories for the livng room entry table, which includes a lamp, basket, and decorative bowl to hold small items. Accessories Plan Accessories the small bowl(s) can hold keys, extra jewlery, and other small items to be easily accessable when exiting or entering the home The basket will be placed under the table to provide extra storage.
