clever design
BE IT IN THE HOME OR ON THE PAGE OF A MAGAZINE, THE SAME CONSIDERATION & APPRECIATION FOR SPACE NEEDS TO BE APPLIED. DO IT RIGHT AND IT WILL WORK WONDERS.
REGARDLESS OF WHO THE CLIENT IS OR WHAT GENRE OF DESIGN IT IS. THE ONE COMMON CHALLENGE ACROSS ALL DISCIPLINES ALWAYS BOILS DOWN TO THE SAME THING...HOW CAN WE MAKE THIS WORK BETTER / HARDER FOR US?
FROM THE LETTERS IN A MAGAZINE TO THE CHAIR IN THE CORNER OF THE ROOM; SPACE IS THE COMMON FACTOR AND THE FIRST HURDLE THAT NEEDS TO BE TACKLED. GOOD DESIGN ALLOWS PEOPLE, PRODUCTS AND BRANDS TO LIVE FULFILLING AND PRODUCTIVE LIVES. BAD DESIGN ON THE OTHER HAND CAN TARNISH A BRAND, A HOME, RETAIL SPACE OR ENVIRONMENT.
THE MORE SPACE PROVIDED THE MORE OPPORTUNITIES THERE ARE FOR MULTIPLE SOCIAL INTERACTIONS, LIKE DINING, PLAYING, RELAXING OR LEARNING. THE SMALLER THE SPACE IS THE LESS OF THESE YOU CAN DO AT ONE GIVEN TIME. THIS DOES NOT MEAN THAT THE SPACE WON'T / CAN'T WORK (NOT ALL OF US HAVE LARGE SPACES TO WORK WITH), IT ONLY MEANS IT NEEDS TO WORK HARDER - THIS IN ITSELF IS THE MOST REWARDING FEELING!
