Interior Design: Post Diploma Pathway

January 2015

Overview

 

I've been procrasinating about this design for a while. Knowing it needs to be done but always having something more urgent to attend to. Even now, other projects really need design attention - farm, woodland, business, orchard..... 

 

Yet I feel at a point where most of these designs imply quite life-changing choices for me, and considerable commitment to see them through. I feel I'm at a kind of a crossroads, only it's one that's more like a spaghetti junction, than a simple country road!

 

I need to get some clarity, some intentions for the future, I'm coming up to the end of the diploma & I want to make sure I make some good decisions and I want to be happy with my choices.

 

So it's a self care & people care design.

 

Process

 

I'm using Looby's Design Web again for this project, I need some structure to guide me, yet it needs to be flexible along the way.
