2. Design Brief (by client)
Name: Tushar Pant
Age: 24years
Relationship Status: Single
In five years I imagine myself to have completed my masters in Interior Architecture
and would be living back in Bangalore. I would own a nice little two BHK apartment
on Lavelle Road. Being an interior designer I would be working for a small architectural
firm, I would indulge less on lavish furniture but have a minimalize and a more
functional place to live. I imagine the climate of Bangalore to change for the little
more extremes, so I expect hotter summers and cooler winters. The place I live would
be open, not cramped and closed. The serene environment of the ‘Garden City’ would
blend with what I’m hoping to achieve in a cozy warm interior, a home and not a
house.
3. Further Additions to the Brief
On talking with the client some more I learnt that he would be staying alone and his
friends might crash but he wants only one bedroom.
Tushar wants a nice studio for all his art works, not just interior design related.
He’s a bachelor who stays alone and has parties on alternate weekends at his place
with his friends.
Drinking and smoking will be a common happening.
His parents visit less than once a year and he’s not planning on getting married for the
next five years at least.
From what I gathered he wants a bachelor’s den.
