To develop a deeper understanding of perspectives, Interior Design III students have been tasked with drawing couches based on animal patterns in one and two point perspectives.

 

“I’m not really good at drawing, and that made the project harder,” junior Wyatt Grubb said. “I chose the glass frog so I had to draw a glass couch and that was really hard. I wouldn’t choose that again.”

 

Students were not allowed to use the same animal and had to draw two throw pillows, a rug and a blanket with colors of the animal or their habitat.

 

“Since I wasn’t here the first two weeks of school, [the project] was harder for me,” junior Carlos Gonzalez says. “I picked a poison dart frog as my animal, and for my pillows and rug I want them to be the colors of the habitat of the frog.”

 

Those in the class had five days to work on this summative assignment including creating a draft and submitting.  

 

“I chose a chameleon; it wasn’t too hard but trying to find the right color was a bit hard,” junior Amarion Brown said. “This project was pretty easy, all we really had to do was draw in one and two point perspective, the only challenging part was the two point perspective.”

 

With students in the class finishing their first project of the school year, Interior Design teacher Rachel Chute hopes this project is going to help students as they learn more about designing rooms and furniture.

 

”This project will help students in the future,” Chute says “This will help [students] be able to design in different perspectives, make rooms more aesthetically pleasing and help them with accent colors in rooms.”
