design-project
The work of today’s designer. You have to
know how to combine what it actually is and
create the right feeling – this is creativity. Of
course, professionalism also comes into play
as well as personal taste: an understanding of
how materials work and what type of effect
they give.
It is no secret that seeing is believing especially
when it comes down to something as large
and as costly as a construction project. Modern
3D-modelling allows you to see the building before
it has been built and it has now become
a bridge between the different project phases,
enhancing the mutual understanding of all
involved. Efficiency, a quick turn-around and its
likeness to the real thing have all predetermined
the success of visual modelling technology. It is
possible that visual technology will find other
uses in other areas of our lives besides architecture
and design in the very near future.
that ‘a design should flow from the architecture.
I think that an architect’s and a designer’s
main task is just to unite and bring together
large and small forms’.
And of course, design elements should dovetail
into one another. The trump card of many
contemporary designs is the use of identical
materials. In this Millenium Park bathroom, for
example, a long slate counter- top is built into
the wall and the unit has an integrated slate
washbasin, giving a single, smooth monolith-effect.
This is a very effective and individual design.
This type of approach is important not only for
high-end clients: lower-end clients are also now
moving towards using the same materials’.
