This blog will feature daily designs that i do for various clients, their names will obviously be cropped from the drawings for privacy reasons. No need for people seeing their names flying round the internet without getting permission from them.

The software i am using at the moment is PaletteCad 3D v5.1 for interior design. One major setback (not really) about this software is that it was programmed in German! which means that every word is not familiar. The first three weeks of its use was stressful as i needed to cross check what some words meant in English ( that was in 2012). I was still switching between Google Sketchup and my new found love then. I will find time to talk about my experience with Google Sketchup and how i stumbled on it randomly while browsing then with my Nokia E63 (2010), mehn i miss that phone too.

I have gotten so used to the software now, you will be surprised at how i move effortlessly from one page to another as if German is my mother tongue. (my favourite quote in German : Alles racht sich irgendwann) 

Back to the order of the day. So this client requested for some designs of kitchen, wardrobe and a closet all in Mahattan Cherry laminate. Follow me as i walk you through each designs analyzing what inspires each.

1. Master's closet

In this room, the client requested for a lot of space for hanging clothes and folding as well, but a lot of emphasis was laid on the word Hanging" which i wrote down as i was taking the brief. So i designed an open door closet which also has open shoe rack cabinet (although) that was not in the brief, guess they must have omitted the shoe rack. 

How can you have a successful closet without a shoe rack huh?

2. Wardrobe 2

 The regular wardrobe space i had to play with, not much anyways so i just made sure everything of worth was incorporated into the space. Talking about hanging units, drawers, shoe racks 3 layers (not bad), shelves.

3. Kitchen Cabinets




This is my favorite part of the house #FoodThings. There is enough space at the center of the room so i said why not insert an island, why not. I have modeled various designs of islands, the other job there was to find the befitting one for each model that will work with the laminate color picked by the client.  
How i love SPACE when designing kitchens, it allows me to test and play around with the designs as i like, unlike kitchens with limited space (if you missed my article on how to design a kitchen with limited space click here)

This particular kitchen comes with various accessories such as the System drawer, hydraulic wall unit system, electric hood extractor and lots more. Peradventure you missed my article on kitchen accessories you can't do without? no worries click here 


4. Door

The last item, is the door. I designed several doors for the client, but this particular door is meant for the dining room door to the kitchen. Peeping on them cooking is not a bad idea especially when you are famished and all you keep getting is "it will soon be ready" not as if peeping will hasten the cooking but sure it helps your worms!

The design is a flush doors with a 6mm transparent framed glass.

The comment section is available for your opinion or thought/comments on any of the designs. Remember all these designs can be done differently by another designer, why don't you tell me how you would have wanted your designs to turn out if these designs were yours.
