Today we spent the day in the studio working on the floor plans and sections of our site's and having a little look at the interior. By creating my mood board I've been able to make a good start with designing as I've had inspiration throughout the day. I decided to have two floors in my building to maximise space for the author and character, I looked at creating individual 'escapes' for the two to retreat to and to relax in their own personalized space. The dining room is important for throwing parties and having social occasions and so I've designed it to be two floors high and to be as large as the living room area. Below are some images from the day.
I also mocked up my initial design idea on sketchbook pro to refine the lines and provide a clearer outline of the floor plan I designed. This is my first idea so it will change but is gives you a good idea of the route I want to go down. I haven't labelled the rooms yet but this will come with further development. My feedback session was very positive and I know what I need to do during the next week.
