The Generator Interior Design

08

The Generator is a building located in Loughborough town centre that own by one of the most famous university campus in the UK named Loughborough University. It’s been unused for several years and Kevin hope to get the permission to use this building.

We ideated 4 different floor plans. When it comes to the style of the interior, Kevin wants to keep how it

looks like originally, all-white bricks, pipes, the column will be reserved, this idea is also known as industrial chic. Team member began to find enormous examples like this, discuss what’s common between these samples. Then we made a few 3D-modeling to present our ideas to Kevin.

Office I

The sidelong wood structured below rooftop could be considered as extra height view make people fantasize more. We choose white brick which has been constructed originally as the texture of the wall to express industrial style. The wooden desk beside the brick wall on the left side of this picture could be used for short-term employee or internship. The light bulb is hidden back to the stone-surface cabinets.

Office II

Let’s take a look inside the container office, yellow, let people feel higher motivate and inspired, is chosen as key visual to make staffs feel happier during working all day long especially for art related institution like Charnwood Arts. A large wooden flat surface is still be used to express industrial chic.

Conference Room I

The conference room is surrounded with a whole glass wall which not only could be the most important visual element to attract client at the first glimpse but also enough for daylight to come through the conference room inside. Don’t worry about the privacy, high percentage of frost glass is used on the height criteria of average human activity.

Conference Room II

In this version, the whole glass surrounding is also be used to maintain enough daylight come inside. Besides, three sides of container built by the large window could make a 270 degrees great view through the whole building. One of the main difference between other lighting ideas in office and 1st meeting room is that we try to put light bulb to make this conference room more like retro style which is also an important part of industrial chic furniture.
