Hat Maker & Atelier ‘Angelica’ First plan with projected interior and exterior walls
It is a set of 3 floor plans. The main purpose of the drawing is to transform the 2D drawings of the building into 3D. In that way the reading could get a better sense of the design only from one key drawing
Plan
Year 2 work
Summary: The project is inspired by Molly, main character in the film Fitzcarraldo, and her interests in straw hats. The main driver for the building is to celebrate this hat style and to involve customers into the making. In this way the hat owner gives more character and fits perfectly to her personality.
