1 WORKPLACE 3

Using an existing 8,000 sqf building and it’s original floor plan, located in Roanoke, VA, we were to create a workplace for a tech company of our choosing while also targetting a problem in current workplace design.

Mimicking the essence of movement, shape, and interchangeability that a camera inhabits, this project utilizes reflection and light to brighten spaces and create an euphoric effect. This further emphasizes the layout’s adaptability to fit the different work spaces and aid with worker’s focus. Attention is brought to the filter of a camera and its reaction to color and light.

PROBLEM:

Addressing the lack of support for neurodiversity among workers and how some people can focus better in different sensory spaces than another person does. The space uses light, sound, and movement to tackle this problem.

LOCATION:

An installation in a museum or exhibit.

In a 10x10 square foot space, we were asked to pick a song, dig deep into the meaning and create a showcase around it using conceptual form.

In Edison Lighthouse’s song “Love grows where my rosemary goes,” the singer tells of his infatuation with a girl who is free spirited and, from the song, makes decisions by following her heart, something most people yearn to be able to do.

Where we end up in life and how we get ther is due to the choices and decisions we make along the way. To live life on a whim or choosing what may be expected of that person. This showcase represents how a choice, as simple as which door to go through, gives you a different expierence or outcome.

ORGANIZATION:

Using the five, 12 by 12 boxes, a separation of work and living space were created. The exhibit faces the street for easier access to guests, while the bedroom in the back proviedes isolation. A large kitchen was important for dietary needs and entertaining.
