La Bohème by AVA Architects

What really attracts me to this interior bar is the use of the timber framework, creating a feeling of depth to the space. The above photo I created is a brief collage of the bar with some additional lines to define its features.

I created this image on Photoshop by using an existing photo of the interior and played around with its design. I kept some of the timber works and worked around it to show how it can create depth.

1st year of university

During my first year of uni, I learnt many different basic skills required to being a designer. Mainly drawing skills such as how to do perspective drawings. I am a fast learner and I quickly picked up how to draw in one and two point perspective. I really enjoy these types of drawings as it explains the interior space in a 3D view on paper. Another important skill I learnt was how to model make. I found this fun to do but requires a lot of patience and delicacy. Some things I made was a Paul Smith exhibition hub and a Miss Sixty retail store (shown below)

I was also taught how to use Photoshop and I quickly picked up new skills as I already knew the basic use of Photoshop before I started University. One project I did was to design and make a model of a box and transform it into any design element you desire (product or interior). Photoshop was required to do this and my idea was to design a nightclub:

Basic use of colours, shapes, transparency, size etc.

Essays and presentations were also required during first year. It was hard work with many projects in a small space of time but it went by quickly and I enjoyed the learning experience.

Arrangement of images

This is how I usually set up images for inspiration. I like to play around with them, arranging them til i get an image that i am satisfied with. I also like to draw over them whether it’s just a few simple lines as it can lead to sketching ideas through the result of different shapes that have been formed. This was all done on Adobe Photoshop.

Rotating walls with acid green edges slot together like jigsaw pieces.
An interactive open space
Choreographed intertwined space which utilizes a series of rotating, interlocking, hinged, jig‐sawed wall panels that transform the bright day‐lit space to a darkened showroom with a simple twist.
These rotating walls allow natural light to be played with throughout the day as well as adding an ever changing frontage
