Floor Plans

This plan would fit the Poppledowns family because it has pretty much everything they ask for. For the Dad, Gary, it has garage space for his van and motorcycle. For the mom. Patsy, it has a large laundry room and spacious kitchen, as well as a home office. There is space in the large garage for both Tom and Tracy to park their cars. There are only 4 bedrooms, so Tom and Jim would have to share a room, as would Tracy and Wendy. There is a large bonus area above the garage that would serve as "hang out" space for the kids and their friends. That area is so large that it has to potential of building another bedroom if needed down the line. Finally, for Oreo, the dog, There is plenty of access to the outdoors. The house has large front and back pooches which adds a considerable amount of outdoor living space for the family.

Harmony

This room shows harmony through it's theme which is a neutral colored circus. These is seen in the furniture, which is mostly tan, and the pictures and other small decor pieces. Variety is found through the bright hot air balloons and the darker wood of the table and chair.

Principles of Design: Rhythm

This week in Interior design we talked about the Principles of Design, and one of them is rhythm. There are a few different types of rhythm found in Interior Design: Repetition, Radiation, and Gradation.
Repetition
Repetition is repeating a certain design or color multiples times in a room.

The repetition in this room is the yellow pillows.


This room's repetition is the picture frames on the wall.
Radiation
Radiation is when a part of a design has a center point an radiates outward.

This shows radiation in many ways. The floor has a circular detail. The table is round, and the chairs circle around it. Lastly, the walls are rounded so they also feel to radiate outwards.

This chows radiation through the arch, the rounded window, and circular table.

Gradation
Gradation is when the colors in the room move from dark to light or light to dark.
The chevron wallpaper starts as a pail peachy color and gradually gets darker until it is the brownish crimson color at the bottom.

Gradation is in the color on the stairs where it starts as a light blue and gets darker and darker with each step as it goes down.
