Design that's not Sublime


    You don't realize it but if you look around you'll see it. Designs that aren't eye catching are a lot with your everyday things such as doors and windows. Those are two of the bigger things in design that can be sublime but are mainly thought of in a basic way.

    A basic door not being overly attractive just shows that its for functionality over style, which is the whole overlay of a design not being sublime. Seeing basic door in this way can make it where there are no distractions from the rest of the design of the building. Using a basic door in this manor helps with the idea of its practicality. And the experience is simple of the closer to a room or an opener to a space over all.

    So if you have a door like this (picture above) that gives the design with practicality and the look of it going along with the rest of the design inside the house.

    However, if you stick with a basic door (picture below) it has all the structure and functionality that you need without taking away any focus off the rest of the design you have around that space or room.

Designer’s Choice

     When you walk or drive around there are signs telling you where things are or where to go. Right? Right! Well, there are a lot of mistakes with signs that you hardly believe it when you see one in person. And companies pay a lot of money for these so sometimes they'll still put them up, or not even know about it till it's to late and the public has already seen it.       So,  for fun I wanted my last blog to show some of these funny examples. https://www.pinterest.com/pin/327848047845867592/ Yeahhh...

Design Philosophy in Design

      When trying to figure out your design philosophy, can be difficult. What helped me was to look around and just find the styles and aesthetics that you are drawn to. I would then look up and do research on the different styles in general on Pinterest mainly.  drawing by author I see design philosophy as my style and aesthetic that I've decorated with before and enjoy designing now. I enjoy modern/ contemporary style with plants and sharp and some curved lines. I use this style as a way to have a clean and simple style that you can change at any time if need be. As well as, designing with a modern/ contemporary space that can bring joy and relaxation. My experience is just enjoying designing the idea of creating a clean space with newer styles that draw in the interest of all that are around. Also, to just create a nice creative space.                           ...
