SVA Interior Design: walls

VISION STATEMENT

"The vision for the newly renovated Interior Design Department at SVA is to create a professional interior design office atmosphere using the atelier, or workshop, as a model. There is nothing quite as beautiful as the true artisan’s or craftsman’s workshop, an unpretentious space made for the purpose of imagining and creating. What comes to mind is the timeless beauty of sustainable, simple materials, such as wood, paper and paint – worn from use, care and love by passionate individuals fully engaged in their work.”
-- Jane Smith, Department Chair

MATERIALS & FINISHES LIBRARY

The new materials library is an extension of the studio space now rather than a separate entity. The addition of a large centralized work surface will aid in the process of choosing your materials and finishes for future projects.

NOTE: New pictures added 7/22, more 8/12

WALLS ARE GOING UP!

Now that the walls have been laid out, we can start to see the shape of our space coming together.

SVA IDD New Walls

INTRODUCTION

We have spent many long hours working hard for the SVA Interior Design department and now, come September, our space will be working hard for us. Updated workstations with increased functionality, ample counter space and display capabilities, new storage options, a really great student lounge and better work flow are just some of the important elements of the new design. This blog will enable you to watch all of these ideas come together from demolition through furniture installation. Please check back weekly as we post more news on the progress of the SVA Interior Design Department 2008 renovation. Enjoy!
