ID 4 Project
As you read earlier, the project for ID 4 is throughout the other classes. I thought I’d explain the concept for my project and the assignment.
We were given the shell of a building. It was to be located somewhere (anywhere) on the East Coast of the USA, in a town which you would typically find row houses. We had to choose the city and the neighborhood in which you’d find it. It is a three story home. The first floor is a retail/boutique space. Our clients just purchased the building, combined 2 of the homes into one, and want to renovate before moving in. We had to come up with the boutique for the first floor and relate that to the residence on the 2nd and 3rd floors.
My home is located in Providence, RI. There is a jewelry district slightly south of downtown which is the cutest thing ever (thanks google streetview).
For my retail space, I decided to have the couple own a vintage jewelry boutique. The couple wants the vintage feel with modern conveniences throughout their residence. They also want a lot of hollywood glam, dark jewel tones, and an overall vintage glam feel. My inspiration boards are pretty cool if I do say so myself. I will upload them in the next few days so you can see for yourself.
