5. COMMERCIAL DESIGN
Professional commercial interior designers must have knowledge and understanding of space planning, interior design, and
project management, along with business skills. They also need creativity and imagination. Many commercial interior
designers receive their formal training by completing interior design bachelor’s programs, such as a Bachelor of Arts in Interior
Design.
Commercial interior design is the process of creating and overseeing the construction or renovation of a commercial space.
Involving much more than simply decorating the interior of the space, commercial design will address such issues as the
choice of building materials, the layout and placement of interior walls, plumbing and power systems, and even coordinating
communications with construction professionals, owners and service providers. This level of interior design requires the
interior designer to have a solid working knowledge of architecture, as well as a sense for creating functional and attractive
setting within the space.
Interior designers who specialize in commercial interior design often work with clients to develop a plan that begins with the
actual construction or renovation of the building. This first segment of the process is often referred to as FIELD VERIFICATION.
Essentially, this step has to do with taking measurements at the work site to determine the exact dimension of the existing
building shell or to determine the measurements for the building that will be constructed. At the same time, ideas about
ceiling and lighting options will begin to emerge, as well as ideas about how to best arrange the interior space to meet the
needs of the client.
This data is that used to prepare schematics that reflect the current conditions of the building site. Known in commercial
interior design as the “as-built” or “as-in” drawings, these basis plans are plotted according to scale, and will be invaluable in
developing the ideas for arranging the major construction elements of the interior space. In a sense, creating these starter
plans forms the basis for the entire interior design project.
With a working knowledge of how things are currently set up, it is possible to begin planning the future condition of the
space. Here, interior designers will begin to adapt the existing floor plan to a new scheme that may involve using some of the
existing elements, while doing away with others, and adding new touches and new architecture.

6. Once the final plans and drafted and accepted, many commercial interior designs will get to work handling the preliminary
details for the client.
This can include obtaining any necessary building permits, communicating with any current tenants of the building, and
arranging the contracts with plumbers, electricians, and construction professionals. Throughout the project, the designers will
remain in communication with everyone involved with the project, making sure progress in consistent and any issues are
addressed in timely manner. Commercial interior design can be used to create office building, manufacturing plants, and even
apartment complexes with equal proficiency.
Designing commercial interiors involves designing the interior of any facility that serve business purpose. Facilities that fall
under the category of commercial interior design include businesses that invite the public in. Other restrict public access but
are business enterprise such as corporate offices or manufacturing facilities, commercial interior are also part of publicly
owned facilities such as libraries, courtyards, government offices, and airport terminals, to name a few.

7. PRODUCT DESIGN
Product design process: the set of strategic and tactical activities, from idea generation to commercialization, used to create a
product design. In a systematic approach, product designers conceptualize and evaluate ideas, turning them into tangible
inventions and products. The product designer’s role is to combine art, science, and technology to create new products that
people can use. Their evolving role has been facilitated by digital tools that now allow designers to communicate, visualize,
analyse and actually produce tangible ideas in a way that would have taken greater manpower in the past.
Product design is sometimes confused with (and certainly overlaps with) industrial design, and has recently become a broad
term inclusive of service, software, and physical product design. Industrial design is concerned with bringing artistic form and
usability, usually associated with craft design and ergonomics, together in order to mass produce goods. Other aspects of
product design include engineering design, particularly when matters of functionality or utility are at issue, through such
boundaries are not always clear.
The product design is a designers centred programme that encourages individual vision and philosophy of a designer to drive
the design and develop process. You will develop a range of communication media from drawing, model-making, computer-
aiding-design, prototyping scale and full size realisation of your design.
Through commercial projects, field trips to experience design in a different culture and the opportunity of a work placement,
it’ll be given all the skills needed to help us succeed within the world of design. The course allows us to focus and develop our
artistic and individual approach through experimentation to meet the needs of client.
Through a range of diverse and stimulating projects you will explore many aspects of product design; from the understanding
of user needs, to the exploration of design through communication work. We will develop a range of key communication skills
using a range of media and methods from drawing, model making and building.
The results were discussed in the steering committee and the conclusion were used for the conclusion were used for the final
order of the products.
 All products could be tested by all users for the period of one week.
 Pupil’s desks and chairs were tested in certain classes for three weeks. A Latin Square Design was used for the avoidance of
coincidence effects.

8. CONFERENCE TABLE
The role of conference table has changed in the modern business context. Understanding that change how it has come about
will help you choose a solution that best suits your organization’s needs. The conference table that most people think of, a
board room conference table, is often the focal point of an organization’s decision- making process. It is frequently where
important matters are decided and announced. The style and appearance of a conference table can take on a symbolic
importance and playa role in a company’s brand.
However, the meaning and function of a conference table has changed for many organizations. As companies have made their
organizational structures less formal and more collaborative, meeting often happen anywhere. A good conference table is still
a very useful item for fulfilling this function. Oftentimes, the conference table in a modern context is less grand. Nowadays,
people use conference rooms for mingling, eating, watching videos, and teleconferencing with people thousands of miles
away. People may need to use a conference room as a “break – out” room for multiple smaller conference groups rather than
one large one. Maybe your limited physical space necessitates that one room serve multiple purposes, like eating and
training, video conferencing and face-to-face meetings. After a departmental meeting, the same “conference” room may be
needed later in the day for a training session requiring a different configuration of furniture or different furniture altogether.
Conference or “meeting” need not only occur in a dedicated conference room. Conference areas near work places where
people can quickly come together, discuss a problem, then disperse back to their own work, space are very efficient. Many
your corporate environments would best be served by lots of little conferencing areas rather than one big one.
With the rise of video conferencing the role of conference table has shifted even more. The space and layout of a well
designed table designed for video conferencing is significantly different from that of a standard conference table. Modular
tables are available that can be adjusted as needed. Conference rooms for meetings between people in the top positions of
major companies need to have a table that is functional and sets the right tone. Conference tables can range from elegant
tables in high end marble, to contemporary and functional systems furniture.

9. CASE STUDY
I have to design an conference table for 16 people. The requirement of that is to design an modern conference table which
should have high tech facilities. An antique design needed which should reflect the class of the company. The several
requirement of client is –
To give electric point for every individual.
Space for writing.
Use of modern materials.
Space for keeping files and laptop.

10. SYNOPSIS
For the designing of conference table I first focus on the type of tables which are available in market. Then I did brain
storming that what shape, material, finish I should take on the table because the requirement was to provide hi-tech
facilities to the table. I also concerned with the power and plug point inbuilt on the table and leather used for separate
writing and space for keeping pen or pencil. Plate glass used at the center to give attractive look to the table. As I also give
the open drawer facility for keeping important documents and files. And an separate inbuilt laptop provided on the space
where head of the office sits.
I tried to give all facilities to the table which an conference table design needs.
