rEflection... (what I learned from others)

As much as I’ve learned about myself during this project, I’ve also learned from others. It’s always exciting to see how other people interpret the same space and information you had, where they get their inspirations and ideas. Most people who had the loading dock space chose to do a loft type area mostly for the living or sleeping space. This made a lot of sense because the space was very tall and this helped save floor space. If I would have had the same space I would have chosen to do the same. With that being said, it was more interesting to me to see the ideas for the administration space. Like Kacie’s proposal with the sliding glass doors. Where the bathroom was the central area and the glass doors slid to either close off other spaces or open them up, but with the glass that open feeling remained. I really enjoyed that and that was something I wouldn’t have thought of. It was tough to make the space adequate for your own artist/client as well as keeping it neutral enough where if someone else came to stay it could be easily changed or suited for that person. I think I’ve learned a little bit of everything from everyone else who presented. I’m not sure if I can name all those things right now, but I know they’ll start to show in my work from now on.
