PROJECT SUMMARY
Yesterday was Day 5 of Creative Market's 30 Day Challenge to become a better designer (I'm one day behind). The Challenge: Make a moodboard. The moodboard I created reflects what I wish my apartment building was for me. I love my building, but there is a lack of community. The only real interaction I've had with my neighbors is when the fire alarm goes off in the middle of the night. Everyone is grumpy, sleepy, and disheveled. Not the best time to ask if anyone is up for a social hangout. My moodboard is a collection of images from the internet that capture the amenities I envision for our shared spaces, and, more importantly the feeling of community and possibility that they could convey. I want to live in a space where I can opt in to social connections and draw creative energy from my living environment. |
My moodboard!
The space I'd design would feel clean but lived in.
It would be welcoming and interactive, without pressure to be an extrovert.
It would inspire me to continue to be creative and work toward my goals without reminding me that I haven't gone to the gym in a week... even though I'm supposed to run in the Sole of the City next Saturday.
It would be a place where I choose to sit and read a book instead of sitting and reading a book on my couch.
I wish my building would create spaces like this instead of spaces that look great to the potential leasers on their tour but are never actually used by residents.
