A new live project that I am working on
alongside Helen. Is to redesign the interior
of Camberwell residents home. Above are
some initial sketches of some of the rooms.
We spent Monday afternoon speaking with
the residents and finding out what they would
want to change or want to have more of.
And the ideas are coming into place now.
We are trying to involve the residents as much
as possible, as it is their home.
The sketches and ideas should all be done
by January and work to begin just after.
The building is four stories high, our main
focus is on the hallways, dining room,
2 living rooms, reception, bathrooms and
kitchen. We spoke to Sally (the manager)
and she is really liking our ideas, the budget
is obviously small and we are going to thrift
a lot but that just makes this a more exciting
project as am looking at reusing things in a
new light. We also want the residents to
interact with this as much as possible.
Most the residents suffer from dimensia
only 2 can walk and there are roughly
30 residents- the oldest being an impressive 105.
