ROOTED IN REVING AN OASIS

Concept Statement

The concept for this interior design project is rooted in reviving an oasis, bringing the beauty and tranquility of a lush oasis into the interior space. Inspired by the serenity and rejuvenating qualities of nature, the design seeks to create a sanctuary within the space, where occupants can feel refreshed and restored. The design elements will include natural textures, such as wood, stone, and plant life, and will incorporate a soothing color palette of greens, blues, and earthy tones. The goal is to create an interior space that evokes the feeling of being surrounded by nature, while providing a comfortable and functional environment for living or working. The end result will be an oasis-like retreat that offers respite from the hustle and bustle of daily life, promoting relaxation and well-being.

The ultimate goal was to create a workplace that supports the mission of the Decatur Cooperative Ministry by providing a welcoming and supportive environment where users can feel a sense of prosperity, rebirth, and renewal.

To achieve this, rich colors and textures are incorporated throughout the space. Warm earth tones like deep browns and oranges were paired with cool blues and greens to create a harmonious balance. These colors were chosen to evoke a sense of nature and tranquility, promoting a sense of relaxation and peace.

Additionally, arched elements such as arched doorways and windows, are added to the design, to evoke a sense of history and tradition. These elements serve as a reminder of the organization's roots and the important work they do in the community. By adding these elements there is a sense of connection and belonging.
