final environment:

(Donatella Versace)



The office for Varsace is quite colourful which is similar to her fashionable products and there is a place for her and models to hang and change clothes, another place for catwalk.

(Steve Jobs)

It has both some complex shapes and simple materials. Itconveys the meaning that his products have a simple look but also some complicated functions.

(meeting place)

The meeting place is elongated just like the dining table and its like the table in some palaces in order to show the idea of power.

MASH UP:
“And there is so much time and work goes into making clothes.” she said. Smart businesses could find gold in this garbage and make you the world's richest self-made businesswoman. Recycling, reutilizing and reducing waste could be a continual and artful innovation in every aspect of its business, and has come to stand for everything noble. “If I could, I would have them all because I don’t wear the same thing a lot of times.” she said with a staged cackle. To be a waste-to-wealth industry, fostered the technology and a brand-new business model can change into something fantastic. He's also had a notable effect on how the creative aspects of all industries operate. We think about creating new innovative products that will surprise and delight our customers and they want a different answer. Technological innovations in solid-waste recycling are likely to emerge, especially in niche markets such as tire recycling, construction, and demolition-waste recycling and it gives a sense of security, of luxury, or being treated well.

Jane Goodall: We have a choice to use the gift of our lives to make the world a better place. Florence Nightingale: How very little can be done under the spirit of fear.

Draft images:



meeting point :

Florence Nightingale's lab

Since Nightingale was a nurse, she took care of the soldiers all the time, I try to use a warm colour tone to create a place that is safe and warm.

Jane Goodall's lab

Since Goodall works with animals and has a connection with the natural environment, I use blue and green to represent forests and the earth.


The ramp:

It is for Goodall to come down to the meeting place. Since both of my clients are female, the colour tone of the ramp is also quite feminine.


Meeting place:
some short cylinders for my clients to sit down and discuss.
An aisle for Nightingale to pass through her lab and the meeting place.
Nightingale's lab:

It has a simple shape and lots of lightings since I want to create a safe and warm place and the benches can let her or her patients to lay down. It is similar to a little clinic so she could think about how to look after the patients and develop the working conditions for nurses. Goodall's lab:
It is more complex and mysterious when comparing with Nightingale's lab. It is more colourful as well since Goodall works with animals and her lab is a bit like a forest.

The textures used in Goodall's lab are disordered just like the trees in a forest.
The big glass shows the connection between Goodall and the natural environment. There is a small 'playground' for the animals to stay since Goodall might be work with many animals and it could act like their home.
