+Project #1: Apartment
You must use your design skills to plan a brand new apartment for between 1 and 3 people. Must contain: A bedroom A kitchen Living room Dining room Bathroom A patio or balcony
(depending on what floor you live on )
+Please follow along in your notes and fill out the information for your project.
Step 1: Program Definition: a written document of objectives and
requirements about the project. Necessary to ensure client and designer share a common point of view about their goals for the space
Program information includes: Kinds and numbers of rooms/spaces to be
designed Relationships between the different rooms/spaces Specific needs for storage/special
furniture/equipment
+Program Components
General Project Statement 1 or 2 sentences outlining the extent of work
to be done and the purpose of the space
Survey A collection of specific details abut the
client’s requirements for the space. Collected through discussion with the client and examination of the space
+Program Components – General Project Statement
General Project Statement 1 or 2 sentences outlining the extent of work to be done
and the purpose of the space.
Ex: Franklin Square is an apartment for an urban married couple in a newly constructed building
Franklin Square – title of project
Apartment for an urban married couple – purpose of the space
Newly constructed building – extent of work to be done

+Program Components – Survey
Survey
A collection of specific details abut the client’s requirements for the space
Collected through discussion with the client and examination of the space
Survey Information:
Data on activities and processes taking place in the space
Specific needs of the people using the space
Space and furniture requirements
Privacy requirements
Noise requirements
Visual requirements
+
Let’s brainstorm questions to ask your client for your program’s survey component
Think about: Specific needs of the people living in the space Data on activities and processes taking place in
the space Space and Furniture Requirements Privacy Requirements Noise Requirements Visual Requirements
Program Components – Survey
+Program Components – SurveyQuestions for Clients
Entertaining?
Bed Time?
Cooking and Dining?
Play Time?
Exercise Time?
Storage Needs?
Growth of the Family – as everyone grows/leaves home/becomes elderly
+Program Survey Questionnaire For homework, due next class:
Part 1:fill out the program survey questionnaire as though you are the client of your apartment project DO NOT answer it as yourself. Remember – you’ve designed your
clients on your worksheet, imagine you are them. Think about their likes/dislikes/interests.
The information you provide will be used to start designing your client’s apartment
Part 2: Imagine you are the client (the apartment owner) and you’ve been asked by the designer to find images from the Internet; photographs and magazines that show the style you like. Find at least 5 images that your client would choose to communicate
the style/feel they would like the designer to use as inspiration in the apartment design. Make sure to remember all of the answers the client created in the Program Survey Questionnaire when looking for images.
Ex: Don’t find an image of a huge kitchen with lots of working areas if the client said they eat out at restaurants most nights of the week.
+Warm Up #6 (this will be a 2 day warm-up)
Sketchbooks are on my cart
Design a child’s bed – inspired by a fairytale; fable or myth. Please write down what the fairytale; fable or myth is next to your drawing
+Agenda
Room List
Adjacency Study
Furniture Inventory
Homework: Furniture Inventory due Wednesday
+Room List Title an area in your Sketchbook as Unit 2: Planning
Sub-Title the page ‘Room List’
Get out your Program Survey
Make a list of all of the spaces you will need in your apartment, according to the Program Survey Living Room Dining Room Master Bedroom Bathroom Kitchen Patio or Balcony Closets and Storage Whatever else you need – additional bedrooms; bathrooms;
closets; workrooms; etc.
+
+Adjacency Study Matrix
Adjacency Study: an evaluation of the closeness of spaces from close to far apart
After knowing the number and type of rooms you have we must determine the relationship of rooms within the space to one another What rooms should be next to one
another What are the client’s needs for
proximity of space Ex: Kitchen next to Dining Room Ex: Bathroom next to Master
Bedroom
To do this we need to create a matrix to value the nearness between spaces
+Adjacency Study
Sub-title this section in your Sketchbook as: Adjacency Study: Project Title; Date
Construct a matrix like the one to the right – use a ruler to help you - with all of your rooms for the apartment project listed along both the side and the top of the chart. Keep them in the same order on both sides
Note: your rooms are different from the ones shown! Refer to your room list you just created!
Color code your adjacency study using the colored pencils
+Adjacency Study
Copy down the legend/key to the matrix shown in the upper left hand corner of the drawing
Keeping in mind the client’s program; evaluate the relationship between spaces, moving your way from box to box across the matrix
Fill in the answer to the box with the key you’ve created No relationship: there is no reason for
the spaces to be near one another Some relationship: there is a bit of
reason for spaces to be near one another but don’t need to be right next to each other
Critical relationship: extremely important for spaces to be right next to one another
For spaces that are the same (living room to living room) leave blank
+
+Furniture Inventory
Furniture Inventory: A list of all the necessary furniture; storage and built-in objects needed in a space. Secondary information such as size; shape; color and style is also provided.
Purpose: Necessary for ensuring new-designed spaces are sized appropriately to accommodate furniture and storage necessities listed in the Program.
MUST refer to the Program survey to ensure designer is covering everything the client wants/needs Storage Entertaining Sleeping Relaxing Display of Objects Seating Areas Built-Ins
+Warm Up #6 continued
Continue with your previous warm up – creating a child’s bed inspired by a famous story; fairytale; fable or myth. Add color if you time.
+Agenda
Review Adjacency Study and Furniture Inventory
Bubble Diagrams
Measuring
Homework: Final Bubble Diagram
+Next Steps: Bubble Diagram
Bubble Diagram – A sketch of different rooms within a space, represented by circles. Purpose: encourages
designer to explore various design solutions
Size of the circle indicates the hierarchy of importance of the room – the bigger the circle the larger the room
Acts as an outline for your plans to be developed later– almost like an outline for an essay
Used to experiment with design possibilities– don’t worry about specifics but rather the overall design concept
+Bubble Diagrams can be technical
+Or artistic
+Bubble Diagram
What is the most important space according to this bubble diagram?
What do you think the different colors are used for?
+Bubble-Diagram: Getting Started Have your program (general project statement and survey) as well as your furniture inventory next to you to review before you draw
Sub-title an area in your sketchbook as Bubble Diagram; Project Title; Date
ON THE SEPARATE PAPER Begin sketching and labeling various size bubbles for each space in your apartment – the size of bubble coordinating with the size of the room.
Don’t worry yet about where the bubbles are located in relationship to one another – make sure to spread them out so that there is space between each one
Color the spaces according to their use, assigning a color to each of the different categories below. Make sure to write what the key is to the colors. Public Space Private Space Workspace Storage
+
+Bubble Diagram – Link Lines
Link lines help show the relationships between spaces after you have an idea of where
When creating link lines on your diagram, refer to your adjacency study
= critical relationship
= some relationship
= no relationship
Goal is to make the heaviest lines as short as possible so people do not need to travel very far between critical relationship spaces – this means you may need to re-arrange the bubble diagram a bit
+Bubble Diagram – Link Lines
Cut out or-re-draw your bubbles from your bubble diagram
Arrange them according to your adjacency study in the area you sub-titled in your sketchbook
When you figured out where you think they need to be indicate the levels of adjacency of the different spaces by using link lines in pencil
= critical relationship
= some relationship
= no relationship
Goal is to make the heaviest lines as short as possible so people do not need to travel very far between critical relationship spaces – this means you may need to re-arrange the bubble diagram a bit
When you’ve arrived at the best solution, glue into place in your sketchbook
Remember – this isn’t a floor plan yet – it’s a visual outline for you to understand how rooms will relate to one another
+Sample Link Lines
+Sample Link Lines
+
+Bubble Diagram Do’s and Don’ts DO experiment with overall shapes and decide whether you want
the design to be formal or informal
DO be willing to do several different bubble diagrams to arrive at the best solution
DO make it a clean; attractive drawing – it is meant as a visual aid for the design process so make it something you and your client will understand
DON’T forget the program when developing the different ‘bubbles’ for your clients. Refer to the general project statement and survey before drawing
DON’T get too specific while drawing the “bubble” diagrams. Getting too specific too soon makes you forget that there are other design possibilities available for the design
+Final Copy Bubble Diagram - Homework Create an artistic quality final copy
of your bubble diagram Re-draw a final copy on the drawing
paper and title with: Bubble Diagram for YOUR
PROJECT TITLE Your first and last name; Date
Draw in pencil; then ink over with a Sharpie pen
Make sure to label the rooms neatly in capitol letters
Draw arrows to show the connection links between rooms like you previously did – thicker the arrow stronger the connection
Color with colored pencils, creating a color for each of the categories below. Make sure to include a key for it Public Space Private Space Workspace Storage
