Review of the project:
Outcomes
A user guide designed to base the structure of the wardrobe around the colours of visual difficulty, using the colour
wheel as a structural guide. I want the wardrobe to resemble a grid-like structure in context with the colour wheel.
The guide will sit inside the wardrobe along with a labeling system and a key coded without the use of colour.
* Good to view determination and progress since reconsidering the practicality of an apps solution. I presume that the research phase of the project is now completed in order to work towards the design and realisation of outcomes.
My advice is that you now detail layout, type and image styling as a dedicated process on your blog in order to ensure
that it is highly visual and now not reliant on extensive copy. Good if you could also consider the context your user
guide, in location and practical use etc.
I have started designing the final outcome, with the help of a graduate Interior and spacial designer, and have also been in contact with a furniture maker.
The inspiration for the shape design for my wardrobe came from this 'micro' house design by Luigi Colani and Hanse haus in which the bedroom, kitchen and bathroom are set on a circular pivot that can be turned around depending on which room is needed. This design was created for use in a small space, but has distinct uses for each individual compartment. I want my wardrobe to have a similar method, to separate colour to allow organisation.
Today I made a model, a 20th to scale, of the wardrobe to work out the measurements, it went very successfully. I also showed the model to the furniture designer who said that it is very do-able, I now need to get some technical drawings created to give to the furniture maker.
