Interior design project question, anyone?

Posted under Interior Design Basics

Welcome back! I hope you find everything you are looking for here. Thanks for visiting again!

So I have an interior design project and one of the questions is: ‘Outline at least 6 constituents of form and provide examples based on the interiors you have observed’ What in gods name does this mean? The previous question wanted us to identify 5 basic shapes of interiors, so are they related or what?
form follows function. its got to be useable, and look stunning… look at eames era furniture and other design stuff… i have an Atomic Percolator, made in 1948… its a joy of curves, polished aluminium and blended surfaces, and at 60 years old it still has all its original bits… and my wife brews her morning coffee in it.. its shapes which we take for granted, door handles! chairs, implements for use around the home… its a mixture of grace and functionality. the zippo lighter is a fine example… and so are Bang and Olufsen stereo systems…

What tool set should be included for interior designer?

Posted under Interior Design Basics

I have a friend graduating with a degree in interior design, and I want to give her a gift of a nice tool set. I’m planning on the basics like hammer, screwdriver, laser level, etc, but what might an interior designer need most?
A metal tape measure. A selection of screws and nails. Picture hanging kit. A selection of drywall anchors. Velcro wrap. The camera is a great idea and a must. A briefcase. A portfolio (for her pictures and letters of reference). A step ladder. There are so many more things, that you kind of pick up as you go along (or learn about from your peers) that you add to your toolbox over time, too.
