Set design is the creation of film or television scenery where the action is performed. Once a concept is approved, set designs proceeds with establishing the general mood & style guideline and creating full documentation of technical drawings – plans, elevations, sections, construction details, etc.
MATERIALS & TEXTURES
MATERIALS SELECTION
Creating a mood board for materials and textures is helpful for proper material selection because it allows you to visually explore and compare different options in a cohesive and organized manner. By gathering samples, images, and swatches of various materials and textures onto a single board, you can see how they interact and complement each other. This visual representation enables you to assess the overall aesthetic and mood, ensuring that the selected materials and textures align with your design concept and desired outcome. Additionally, a mood board helps you communicate your vision effectively to clients, collaborators, or suppliers, fostering better understanding and facilitating informed decision-making throughout the material selection process.
FURNISHING & DECORATION
GENERAL STYLE & MOOD
Creating a furnishing and decoration plan is helpful for proper material selection because it allows you to envision the final look and functionality of a space. By planning and visualizing the placement of furniture, decor items, and accessories, you can better understand the materials that will complement and enhance the overall design concept. It helps you consider factors such as color coordination, texture compatibility, and style cohesion. Additionally, a furnishing and decoration plan enables you to evaluate the practical aspects of material selection, such as durability, maintenance requirements, and suitability for specific areas or purposes. This thoughtful planning process ensures that the chosen materials align with your design goals, create a harmonious environment, and meet the functional needs of the space.
DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
DRAFT SKETCHES & DRAWINGS
Design development drawings are the first detailed stage of a project. They are arguably the most important part of the design as all the initial building ideas and concepts are formed into a realist shape. Sets parameters along with other restriction including budgets shape and determine the direction of the entire project. Preliminary plans are subject to change however, it is important to get the drawings correct the first time to reduce variations which can be costly at later stages to the project. A well organized and solid set of plans helps to ensure an efficient project and management of required time lines.
