Design Brief
I am redesigning a master bedroom for my clients and (age 40). The couple
has three children and lives in the Sydney. This Sydney area prides itself on its
natural beauty of parklands and spectacular water surroundings. The children
are between the age of 15-20 and both parents work. They are getting prepared
to put their house on the market and so I have been asked to generate a much
needed update in order to make the space more aesthetically pleasing whist
remaining a practical setup to entice future buyers and hopefully add value to the
residence.
I will design and produce a 3D model which will represent my clients space
in response to their needs and wants. I will also take into account their budget
and the time of 11 weeks in which I have to complete it by. Regular
interviews with and will help me understand what they are looking for and if
any changes need to me made. These will be recorded on a log sheet.
I will collect my inspiration from magazines and research on the internet.
In my design I will explore the use of textiles, furniture, paint and other
materials.

Client Profile

clients
My clients are happily married, parents of 3, working couple .They currently live in Sydney.
and both work and are an interest in art and design. The couple are currently preparing to
put their house on the market and so therefore need some updating in the rooms of the house in
order to boost the value of the house. the decided maximum budget for this make over is
$10,000. this will include the costs of subcontractors, painters, materials, furniture and
electrical appliances.
Their existing bedroom is lacking style, they both want to achieve a sophisticated but pretty
environment to spend time in. Some influences are Laura Ashley and Ralph Lauren.
They also want their redesigned bedroom to fit well with the style of the rest of the house. The
home was built in 1888 and is a sandstone two story house and the interior has been renovated
over the years and currently a French provincial style.

Considerations and Constraints
• Time – I have to consider the time of 11 weeks to completely finish my space.
An action and time plan is necessary in order to arrange my time so I can
meet the deadline.
• Size – I must take into account the size of my space hen designing.
• Function – my space has to function therefore people have to be able to wake
through the space easily and all appliance must work as well.
• Budget – I have to consider the amount of money I have been given to spend
($10000) I have to construct a finance plan in order to manage my money
responsibly. Purchase materials and appliances wisely and shop around for the
best deals
Safety- the safety of the workers and clients is very important. I will
ensure this by checking all workers are wearing safety equipment and before
the completion of the space I will get a safety inspector in to check if it is not
dangerous to the clients.
Clients wants and needs – I am redesigning a space for my client not
me so I have to cater for what they want and need. The arrangement of
meetings with the client is very necessary in order to create a place that is
idea for them.
Materials - I have to consider the materials available and the materials
that are still within the budget. This means I have to shop around and
find the best deals for my client.
OPPORTUNITIES
PERSONAL OPPORTUNITIES
Skill Development – as this is my first time doing interior design I have a lot to learn
and skills to develop. It is a great opportunity to lean about colour schemes, managing
money through a finance plan and interacting with a client to create an ideal space for
them using their needs and wants. I will also develop my skills on sketching and
perspective drawings.
I am interested in being an interior designer one day so this is a good opportunity to see
if it is what I want to do. I will treat this as if it is real like and deal with all the ups and
downs that are involved in this area of work. E.g. sub-contractors, deadlines, budgets
etc.
PRODUCT OPPORTUNITIES
I was hired by the client to redesign their space in hoping that this updating would boost
the value of their house as it is going on the market soon. This will mean that more use will
become of the room as the environment is more aesthetic and functional.
Analysis Of Concept
After researching all different colours and trends I have a variety to
Board
show my client and when I
did it was obvious which ones they liked
and which they disliked. They favored the cooler blues, greens and
aquas in combinations with the crisp creamy whites over the bold reds
and yellows. As for the trends boards my client did not like the eclectic
bold look or the ultra modern look instead my client loved the classical,
elegant French - modern style as not only was it beautiful and
feminine but it fitted in with the rest of the house.
I will keep all this in mind when designing my clients bedroom to ensure
that they are happy and satisfied with the final product.
