commissioned project: interior design & styling for friend's room
i have always been interested in doing interior design and the opportunity presented itself when a friend approached me to help him design his room from scratch as he was sharing it with a family member previously. This provided me a chance to sharpen my sketchup and v-ray skills in terms of rendering and also understanding the client's needs first hand.

design issues:
1. study table & shelf too small and fixed to the wall; preventing it to be shifted.
2. main light source located at front of the room; making it too dim, not reaching the back of the room.
3. space is too cluttered and not much room for client to move around and rest at.



design solutions:
1. utilizing items bought from IKEA to create a unique table with sufficient storage on both sides.
2. installing track lights so that the room would be evenly lit in the night; different lighting for different moods.
3, new paint scheme to create a new sense of cosiness and a different environment within the home.
4. adjusted the layout of the bedroom so that the spaces are better utilized & optimized.
