Group Design Statement

Our intent for My Sister’s House is to create a comfortable, contemporary space that will foster a healthy environment for infant/child care, learning/education, and family life. We intend to play with positive and negative space, allowing the interior forms to define the exterior. The materials we were given will create the unifying factor within and throughout our design.
Collectively, our charretts have allowed us to think of our design in different ways. Together we have combined ideas and observations to create moments. The moments we have made inspire our design and inspire our group to continue thinking in different ways. We use our charretts to gather information that has importance in how we design. Personally, the most important charrett for me to better understand our project and design was the Artist, Architect, and Designer project. This helped me get in a better state of mind in how to think of combining charretts.
