School part II
Rendering update! Here are the posts that I was meaning to post after Christmas! ah, I know it has been a while! But the stuff I am working on right now is AWESOME!
This one is my final loft project that was designed specifically for the fabulous Lisa Lowe. -Thank you
The rendering is of Lisa's Master bedroom overlooking the city scape.
There is a semi wall behind her custom designed bed with a glass partition separating the bedroom and the bathroom. The semi wall is clad in exotic zebra wood paneling.
I loved the open glass partition because it opens up the two rooms, and visually maximises the space. Desinged as more of a conversation piece because your guest could be using the bathroom and can see you standing in your room... Unless you decide to close the curtains, but where is the fun in that!?
Next up Victoria Secret office reception proposal, Ministry of Natural resources Lobby.
AND I am working on a very large office floor plan. That is my final project for the year. So I will post my inspiration and sketches and then the finished project!
Enough writing, I'll start posting! :)

SCHOOL
Dear blog,
Please forgive me!
I have broken my promise to write to you every Sunday... I think I need to renegotiate my pledge.
I now pledge that I will write when I have time during this whole school year.
Well with that aside, I'm BACK!
So SCHOOL! - wow
I am learning so much from my 2nd year interior design program!
Well this is my 1st time experimenting with Rendering.
I must say, I was terrified! After buying a bunch of pretty markers at random.
I was intimidated to make any sort of colour on my page.
Well I've been working through it, focusing on line weights and shading to make my images look real!
So before I head back to continue on my homework train, here are a few of my renderings over the last few weeks.
FYI These aren't all of them! So check back soon to see what's next!

4 F's for the Headboard!
Here are some FUN, FLORAL AND FABULOUS FABRICS!!
Fabrics can be very difficult! They can be expensive and SUPER hard to find, especially when you have one in mind already!
KB has given me a mission to find a large bright floral pattern for her Master Bedroom Headboard.
Having my internship at Gluckstein Design this summer was wonderful. I have had the pleasure of visiting all of the different textile showrooms at Designers Walk.
So I figured I would check their online sites to see what they had available in the style KB wants.
Some of the showrooms I've checked were Lee Jofa, Primavera, Robert Allen, and Kravet to name a few.
So hopefully if my potential client likes one of these fabrics we can possibly get our hands on them! -Phewsh!

Headboard to toe
So I have been given one of my 1st missions! Finding a fun floral fabric for a MASTER BEDROOM HEADBOARD! I'm going to search for appropriate and accessible fabric options as well as fun headboard styles!
There are so many different headboard options! Different shapes, sizes, weights even materials! Headboards are easy to construct as a DIY. Step one in creating your own headboard for your bed would be selecting a style.
Tip 1:Keep in mind the headboard can and most likely will be a focal point in the room.
Make sure your headboard will reinforce your room style. You probably wouldn't use the next image if you wanted a ZEN room. Are ya following?
If you are looking for a modern look, stick to linear headboard options, and dress it with a neutral fabric, or keep it wooden and consider stains. (See the last image in this section! It is a great example of a minimal headboard. It has a darker stain creating a contrast between the lighter walls. BAM! focal point! Your eye goes directly to it! Also there are darker accents in the pillows and bedding that reflect the headboard giving purpose to the dark headboard by creating a rhythm through the room.
Notice the detail on the headboard, they used a nice orange piping highlighting the shape and movement in the headboard. It also helps break up the busy fabric pattern. Nice touch.
