Principal design challenge/goal and resolution:
The project goal was to design a 24’ x 24’ family room to seat 8 or more with areas for reading, playing cards, and watching TV, with a computer desk and fireplace. To create a sense of individual and cozy spaces within the large room, I divided the space into alcoves. To accommodate the room’s multi-functionality requirements and strengthen the “whole room” appearance, I designed built-ins.
Secondary design challenge/goal and resolution:
It was my personal challenge to expand the design to the adjoining kitchen. Kitchen cabinets, family room built-ins, and overall color scheme were chosen to emphasize an unified “one room” feel. Another goal was to bring the outside atmosphere into the interior space using colors and a wall accent.
Sustainable products and principles incorporated in the design :
DuPont’s “Green Approved” and GREENGUARD certified Corian solid surface countertops and Formica’s LEED rated and GREENGUARD certified DecoMetal wall accent were selected as sustainable materials.
