Exploring the Versatility of Architecture and Interior Practicing Craftsmanship
LEARNING GOALS
Since I have prior knowledge in sketching and interest in architecture and interior design, I want to explore craftsmanship and develop my design abilities by experimenting with different materials at home and school. I want to be able to improvise using the materials I have around me.
PRODUCT GOALS
My product goal is to create a set of furniture, changing the function of recycled materials into a shelf, a coffee table, and a lampshade.

RESEARCH PROCESS
I started by doing basic research online. I did research on how to sketch for designing, crafting, and inspirations. I interviewed multiple experts in design. The first expert was Junita Sulistiyani, an interior designer who will help me understand the process of designing. The next expert was Kak Bala, a furniture maker (The Karatan) who will help me understand how to create a design using limited materials, especially used garbage. The third one was Dendy Darman, a famous artist and graphic designer who designs houses and furniture. I wanted to learn how he creates intricate designs, especially as an artist.
