Design I
Project
Project Description: You have been hired by a client to work on the interior design of a building that has
recently undergone an exterior faade restoration. Each building is located on the Main Street of an
urban neighborhood. The buildings are mixed-use; a small business is located at street level and
residential space occupies the upper levels. You will not be responsible for any design work associated
with the business on the first floor of the building.
A picture of the exterior faade and interior plans of the building have been provided for you to get
started. The staircases, kitchen and bathrooms have been provided and MUST remain in their original
locations. You may not move the stair cases or the kitchen and bathroom fixtures and cabinetry. You will
be responsible for locating new interior walls and doors and sufficient storage for your client. Using the
client profile you have been assigned, you will educate yourself in the historic features and context of the
building as well as the clients style preference. Throughout the course, you will work to provide a viable
design solution that integrates architectural history and historical furnishings while addressing the clients
needs. You will space plan the entire residence for your client, then work to further develop the design for
the following spaces: living room, master bedroom and either the dining area or home office. Each week
you will have new information and details that will include individual assignment expectations and
deadlines. You must incorporate changes and corrections each week in preparation for submitting
the completed final project by the end of Week 6.
