Kitchen Design

This project was used to explore the remodeling process and stretch the creative process. A client gave me a piece of her favorite art work in her house. I was expected to design a kitchen based on that art work. The concept I came up with consisted of angles and layers which I related to some flags blowing in the breeze in the art work. The client was also very specific about some of the qualities she desired in the kitchen as well. The kitchen needed to be open to the family room and dining room. The materials she wanted were wood floors, cherry wood cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and the color red. Overall, I believe my design was successful in its layout which gave a feeling of openness, as well as incorporating the materials she desired. Included in this project were a plan of the kitchen, a plan of the first floor, two perspective views, two elevations, a section cut, a picture of art work, process work, light study models, and a model of the kitchen.

Kitchen Case Study

This project was designed to explore the necessity of a functional kitchen. The task was for a group of us to make a meal of spaghetti and take note of what worked well in the kitchen and what didn't. The project also involved measuring the kitchen dimensions, producing an elevation, a perspective view, and a plan of the kitchen.
