‘CREATING A NARRATIVE FOR A PLACE WHERE YOU FEEL AT HOME’

Design studio 1: B&B integrated in nature | 2016

The goal of this first design project of the bachelor was to design a small free standing bed and breakfast home with the corresponding lot in the province Zuid-Holland. The program and area of the house were given but both had to be examined in order to create a coherent design. In the first five weeks, I worked with a team to research the boundary conditions of the design. What kind of measeurements were needed? And what should be the exact location in the area where you can fullfill the wishes of the client from this assignment? It were these kind of questions that had to be answered while presenting the results of the research. Afterwards, we had to develop a concept drawing for the house itself individually and work that out to a complete substantiated design in five weeks.

The finished result had to be posters with a maquette.
