Interior Architecture

Project 1: Understanding Different types of Professions and Drawings in the Built Environment

Introduction to Drawing [ARC30103]

Introduction to the Construction Industry [QSB30105]

Interior architecture/design/decoration

Deal with the design and development of an interior space, in varying degrees

Interior architecture – remodeling existing buildings; often deals with complex structural, environmental & servicing problems.

Interior design – concerned with the creation of interior environments that articulate identity & atmosphere through manipulation of spatial volume, placement of specific objects/furniture.

Interior decoration – decorating inside spaces and rooms to impart character & atmosphere into a room.

Roles of an interior architect

Design and build interiors for safety, functionality and aesthetics

Understand the durability and strength of building structure materials

Be skilled in the use of light, colours and textures in a space

Draft plans to create or refinish spaces in private home or in commercial buildings

Design with their clients’ taste in mind

Be aware of the federal, state and local building regulations so their designs are up-to-code

Interior architects are part of the building and remodelling process from the beginning to end

They begin their job by meeting clients to discuss the expectations for the project

At these points, the interior architect will listen to the wants and needs of his/her clients as well as giving suggestions to his/her clients

Responsibilities of an interior architect

Meet clients’ needs, ideas and budgets create, present and implement design concepts

according to a client’s spatial needs and wants

Select colours, schemes, texture, fabrics, fittings and furniture

map out the space to determine furniture location and overall room design

Ensure that the work is completed on time and on budget

making sure that the timeline is met, and costs are within budget

Create illustrations and renderings

Establish competence standards

Responsibilities of an interior architect at different stages of construction

BEFORE CONSTRUCTION Pre-project

Programming phase – data is gathered and analysed to determine requirements to be met, culminating in a design concept that express the proposed character of space.

Schematic design phase – Drawings & other documents are prepared to depict design concept and solutions (ideas for space allocation, furniture layouts, types of finishes to be used)

Design development phase – Drawings & other documents refined and executed to scale, with greater detail for client approval.

Contract document phase – requirements for construction & furnishings are documented for the client’s written approval.

DURING CONSTRUCTION Construction/Installation

advise whether the work conforms with the construction drawings and specifications

check for any defects and errors and to ensure they are corrected

Contract administration phase – execution of design plans, including oversight of work performed by tradespeople, to see that they are consistent with the design concept.

AFTER CONSTRUCTION Post-completion

Meet with all interested parties (client and employees, general contractor, and architect)

Make follow-up phone calls to the client, asking how things are going and whether any additional services are required

Drawings Produced by Interior Architects“Drawing is a tool and a language. A tool because it serves to analyse and understand, and a language in so far as it expresses and procures to ‘translate’ those formless sensations that ‘float’ in the interior, retaining the impressions produced in the act of observing.” – Arne Jacobsen

Concept/Mood Board

conveys the overall feel of a project, putting together images and objects which inspire, target desires and depict creativity and innovation

a method of creating a ‘visual conversation’ with the client and other members of the design team

a guide tool to show to clients for approval before proceeding further

helps the designer to keep all of their ideas together and integrated

Concept/Mood Board

Sketches

SKETCHES – fast, immediate & require only a pen and paper

Used as a way of observing & recording

A way of ‘thinking out loud’

Sketches (Analytical Sketches)

is when you draw something out in order to understand or explain something either to yourself or others

involve non-formal elements such as lines of sights/measurements, often incorporating fragments of plan, section and perspective on the same page.

could be described as sketching out ideas rather than spaces.

Sketches (Design Sketches)

Sketches are an immediate and intuitive form of drawing. They are a fast and fluid way of exteriorising thoughts.

Because of the ease and speed of sketching they are often done in a series and it is possible to literally see the thought process as it develops.

Sketches (Design Sketches)

Survey Drawings

Interior architects will often find themselves working within existing buildings and spaces.

Some of the first drawings to be made for a proposal will therefore be a survey or record of the building in its existing condition.

The more accurate and thorough the survey the easier the subsequent work will be.

Survey Drawings

Record all the information that might be useful or inform the proposed design.

often are quick, rough and in the form of sketches and notes, with layers of information and use of colour to highlight important aspects.

If available, the original plans and sections are referred to. The drawings should be checked that they are ‘as built’ and any alterations that have occurred to the building should be noted.

Survey Drawings

Construction Drawings

Construction Drawings (Elevation)

Diagrams

Abstract drawings that use symbols/ideograms as a graphic shorthand rather than attempting pictorial likeness.

They focus on specific attributes, editing out superfluous information for clarity.

Diagrams (Conceptual Diagram)

Often called a “Bubble Diagram”

Indicates functional and spatial relations

Identifies major spaces, areas, and other important features

Bubble size is not drawn to scale at this time

Diagrams (Schematic Plan)

Indicates spatial ad circulation relationships

Scale and shape of the spaces become evident

Important features are delineated

Several schemes are quickly sketched for study

Preliminary Plan

Scaled proportions of spaces and elements

Addition of internal architectural details

Walls, windows, and built-in items are shown

Furniture might be indicated in some areas

Final Plan

Fully scaled drawing depicting space, objects, and usage

Details such as doors, windows, counters, etc., are shown

Furniture often shown to indicate how a space is used

Textures often drawn to show surface of materials

Orthographic Projection

One of the most useful tools available to the interior architect

A geometrical technique of projecting lines at right angles between a picture plane and an object, usually a building.

Projection lines are parallel and the resulting image has no perspective.

Depending on the picture plane, there are different types of orthographic projection:

Plan Elevation Section

Plan and section provide a method of opening up the building to look inside.

If drawn to scale, different drawings are able to refer to each other and a 3D design can be constructed entirely from 2D drawings.

Orthographic Projection

Orthographic Projection

PLAN

A horizontal measured cut through the

structure, space or object.

SECTION

A vertical measured cut through a

structure, space or object.

The section is generally cut

through the centre of the space but

again can be cut at any point along the

plan.

ELEVATION

A frontal measured drawing that

documents the front face of things.

This can be an ‘external elevation’

or for interior spaces an ‘internal

elevation’.

Axonometric & Isometric Drawings

Axonometric (aka ‘paraline’) is constructed by placing a plan at 45 degrees to the paper edge and extruding or projecting the edge lines vertically to describe the walls.

Isometric works on the same principle but the plan is set at 30 degrees.

ability to offer a swift method of constructing a 3D view while allowing for ‘true’ measurement in all 3 dimensions.

However, the resulting interior will have no perspective because the projecting lines are parallel, and the image can look distorted with the viewer placed floating above/below the space.

Axonometric & Isometric Drawings

Axonometric Isometric

Perspective Drawings

The lines of projection converge on the viewpoint (the viewer’s or painter’s eye) and thereby give an illusion of depth.

Allows the viewer to stand in the space in a way the previous drawings never can. It is about focal points in a room and the arrangement of elements and furniture.

It can be useful to show the more experiential qualities of the interior such as the space itself, light qualities and views beyond.

Perspective Drawings

Presentation Board

Summary

Interior architecture/design/decoration deal with the design and development of an interior space but on different scales

The interior architect must be a creative individual with knowledge about colours and textures but must also have sound knowledge of architectural and structural concepts

The interior architect may deal with a proposed building or may be redesigning an existing structure

The interior architect produces various 2D and 3D images to convey ideas and may also act as a construction reference. However, they may also refer to existing drawings when working with pre-existing buildings.
