A Journey Into Color

I'm taking a design class and our midterm assignment was to design an outdoor gallery for an artist of our choice. I've always wanted to have a show of my work, so I thought this would be the perfect opportunity. I drafted a floor plan and then created a foam core model in 1/4" scale. Here is a little piece I wrote about the gallery:


A Journey Into Color

This outdoor exhibition features photographs and paintings by artist Amy Renzulli. Moving from black and white, to cool colors, to warm, vibrant colors, passing through the gallery is a journey into color. As the colors brighten, the walkways slowly widen, drawing visitors in and leaving them with a sense of uplift and expansiveness as they leave.

This is a perspective drawing I did of the sitting room. I chose white leather couches from Design Within Reach, and clear Lucite tables. The floor is stained and polished cement. I had my drawing photocopied onto water color paper and I used gouache to do the painting on the walls.



She doesn't know it yet, but for my next project I will be designing a beach house for my mom. I'm picturing undulating waves of lines...
