Project 1: Ordering Principles in Design
Mood board Inspired by ordering principles design research.
Field Trips Knoll Showroom Herman Miller Showroom Michael Merrill Design Studio PG&E Visitor Center
PG&E Visitor Center Thoughtful approaches to design reduce our reliance on energy. We use energy in buildings to create sufficient light and to stay thermally comfortable.
A model of a building by Le Corbusier demonstrates the efficient use of sun shading. The porches and panels reduce heat from the low Indian sun while honoring window views.
How much light is needed for various areas and tasks? Too much light can cause glare and/or waste energy. A careful approach to lighting enhances usability and efficiency. Air quality is worth consideration for healthy and environmentally friendly living. Monitoring Carbon Monoxide and VOCs is beneficial for us all.
The PG&E Visitor Center features displays on environmentally sound building projects. Examples include features like natural wastewater treatment, use of natural circulation and light, and thermodynamic heating.

Workspaces are gathered near windows for the inspiring flush of natural light. Away from the windows and vistas are the conference rooms for more intensive work and focused discussion. Areas for socializing and casual work meetings intermingle, inviting connection.

Reception Area Mood Board
Introduces the visitor to natural textures, notions of weaving and permeability, and organic and classic shapes. The reception desk is made of reclaimed wood and features lighting that reflects the generation of solar power.
Workspace Mood Board
Demonstrates use of textile dividers, simple lines in workstation design, and the comforts of live plants and ergonomic seating.
Flexspace, Kitchen and Lounge Mood Board
Mixture of textures and levels of permeability to create a sense of being in nature. The relaxed vibe is an invitation to linger, to work, to connect with colleagues.
