Final Project Proposal
My final project for Visualization I in Electronic Design will be a
preliminary “mock-up” of my interior design portfolio. The primary
goal of this assignment is to illustrate, especially to my target viewers,
my (educational) experience in the interior design field. My portfolio
will demonstrate my skills in hand drafting, sketching, rendering, space
planning, etc. My vision for this assignment is to create a sleek and
elegant portfolio that is both visually interesting and professional. I
intend on using little color for the overall design of my portfolio
(perhaps only a mixture of black and white), thereby allowing my
colorful pieces of work to speak on their own.
The content area of my final project involves works from my previous
interior design classes, all of which will best describe my capabilities in
the field. The works to be included are projects from: Studio II, IV, V,
my rendering class and items from my personal work. All work
included in my final project will ultimately be featured in my final
(professional) portfolio. The “defining elements” of my project include
a personalized logo, a strong linear layout (inspired by the works of
Piet Mondrian) and a multitude of contrasting colors, all characteristics
that will hopefully help add interest to my portfolio. My final project
will include work ranging from studio projects (floor plans and
perspectives) and concept/preliminary sketches to marker vignettes
and furniture design. My target audience is predominantly the firms
with which I wish to work for upon my graduation from the Savannah
College of Art and Design. I hope to target large, corporate firms,
particularly those who specialize in some aspect of transportation
design. I will obtain most of my information from myself, as well as
from my professors who will aid me in successfully developing my
portfolio for my target audience. Additionally, I will obtain inspiration
from various magazines and observe their various page layouts, as
well as particular graphic design.
