Welcome to my 8th grade project! As you all know, my topic is Interior design. From the first day we started to work on our eighth grade projects, we all had trouble deciding how things would work. Eventually, we all came to an agreement and got started. Here, you will find new information that was not included in my presentation. You will also have the chance to participate in small activities like design quizzes and more.
There will be a large range of courses for you to choose from, but the most necessary classes are mathematics, visual concepts, construction documents, and building systems. However, depending on the school you go to, they may offer more courses such as…. free hand drawing, basic level 2D computer graphics, and fine arts which may include painting, history of the arts, and a general design course. These courses will push an interior designer, allowing them to reach their dream goals.
Even though interior design feels like a fun game of decorating, there are things an interior designer must know; one being math. It may not be your favorite subject, but in this case, an interior designer is required to know how to measure, find perimeter/area along with basic multiplication and division. Now, I am no math teacher, but I have provided a couple videos to give you an inside look to what an interior designer uses on a daily basis.
How to measure a room
How to find area/perimeter
Space– Space is the area around/between a room. In design we use space to give the eye a rest or lead the eye through a certain design.
Size– Size measures how large or small a certain object is. This element creates visual interest in a space you have designed.
Color– Just like elements of art, color is used to show emotion. This element pulls in the skill of creating a color scheme that will make the guest feel welcomed.
Texture– When we use texture in interior design it adds depth to the room and a visual interest to the eye.
Line — There are endless possibilities to line, it can be used to create patterns and connect different types of content together.
Shape–In design, shapes are used to attract the eyes attention to a certain area of the room.
Value– Value is how light or dark an area can look.
Line–Line is considered to be a moving dot with an endless number of uses. When it comes to art, lines can be used to describe edges and can control where the viewers eyes go.
Shape– A shape is a closed line that only goes in two directions
Form– Form is a three-dimensional object that always has length, width, or height.
Space– Space is used to distance an area. It can be used between, around, above, or below. You can even find space within shapes
Texture– Texture is used to bring paintings to life, letting us know how something may feel.
Value– Value is essentially how light or dark something can get
Color– Color is produced when light strikes an object and is reflected back to the eye.
From day one, Earth has suffered because of human actions. Whether we talk about climate change, pollution or littering, there is always a common pattern. Humans have been the cause of it all. So in order to avoid hurting our planet, I have listed the top 10 eco-friendly materials to use in your home.
-Bamboo
-Stones
-Cork
-Reclaimed wood
-Repurposed anything
-Rammed Earth
-Recycled plastic
-Sheep’s wool (can be made into a throw blanket)
-Clay brick
-Cotton
