Final Project--Center for New North Carolinians

Conference Room Perspective

Conference Room Section

Conference Room Axon

The Conference Room has horizontal banded windows  that start small and grow bigger as you go up the wall. Our space's concept was about layering, growth, and beginnings. Though it was hard for us to put into words our exact concept, we showed the techniques we used and the thought process we had in each room. Technically, growth and beginnings could be another way of describing how "layers" work.

Private Office Perspective

Private Office Axon

The Private Office stands out the most from the other spaces. We thought that was okay because we wanted for the private and public spaces to be distinguished. In order to avoid a barrier between the person working in the office and a client, we designed a desk that had an opening towards the seating. This draws the client in instead of blocking them out. We dropped down a block of ceiling for a more personal feel, but left room around the edges so that when the light on top of the ceiling is on, you can still see the trusses above. We didn't want to eliminate the trusses all-together.

Training Room Perspective

Training Room Axon

The training room has offset walls, windows that grow with increasing verticality, and dropped down panes of glass with lighting attached. All of this relates to the concept of layers and growth from new beginnings.

This is a look at the presentation on the wall.

This is a rendered Floor Plan of the whole building. Walnut Bamboo flooring that contrasts the pastel walls and vibrant chair colors. This all represents the new beginnings associated with springtime and with the clients.

This is a representation of the logo we came up with for CNNC. We wanted to show diversity and the coming together of people while also portraying the new beginnings they share. They're depths vary to reinforce the idea of layers. The springtime colors are what represent our beginning.

This is a model of our Reception Desk. The explanation is with the Perspective.
