For this first class in studio... I gave them a quick exercise where I divided them into three groups and gave each a limited space, a drafting table and a chair.... then I asked them to design the space as they want... and that they can borrow whatever objects they can find around them...
The main objective of this exercise was to do the first act of interior design a human has made which is to arrange and re-arrange existing elements to accommodate a certain function...
The first group... made their cramped space into a small second hand clothing shop... as a set design I think they did well... but as interior designers they had a lot of mistakes in using up the space...
The second group... designed their space as a living room... they had manipulated the table quite well and made good use of their coats and jackets... The only problem they had is that they made some redundant additions...
The third group tried to go into abstraction and had two or three different ideas before landing on this one... which was designing a corner for a pianist... their design is what we call "Safe Design"... which means nothing wrong in it... but... not quite creative... however... they had again used elements effectively and they had put a lot of thinking in it...
