My Forty Hour Project

<div style="text-align: center;">Well my loves, did you miss me? I'm still in finals but I just finished the biggest assignment of the term, so I'm hoping the rest will be quicker and easier. I'm so excited to share this project with all of your today!<br /><br />We were asked to design a loft. We were given the basic dimensions and a couple specifics, but we got to invent out client and decide if we wanted a mezzanine or not, where to put it, where to put washrooms, kitchen, living room, etc. Not only did we have to do a floor plan and two sectional elevations, we were also required to create a sample board and make a to scale 3D model of the space! Let me walk you through it:<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNNieMlAR5S2hTsk6svjkXNAgI0M-8ZTxrb9Hpq0rEgfrXqDhCfKSbBsPfSqWDD50U05Ak0yuMW0BNwDGoMsI6I6kvK4sceRYCtuZ2dnzay1kCqdafUn-pSPnxOCyRB4PUZnJshCUfOejL/s1600/022.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNNieMlAR5S2hTsk6svjkXNAgI0M-8ZTxrb9Hpq0rEgfrXqDhCfKSbBsPfSqWDD50U05Ak0yuMW0BNwDGoMsI6I6kvK4sceRYCtuZ2dnzay1kCqdafUn-pSPnxOCyRB4PUZnJshCUfOejL/s640/022.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisX5xu7qqHyrByvjmENy1EikVL2cxs1ws-8nPvYfyyMzu70zNrccSbP9weEP3RjgpdNUxfPwvOCyDyRneQ_N7FGQlS9B4zi3RlYQaOurndVKY3Y6m9z-46KfdQ4SxWxJX73baHsXfDh7Md/s640/023.JPG" width="640" /></div>Here you can see my hand drawings of the views of the lower and upper levels of the loft. The main living area (tv area, lounge and kitchen) are all open concept with double height ceilings. You can see that the foyer, office and powder room are located underneath the mezzanine. The mezzanine level contains the bedroom and 3 piece bath. From the bedroom you can look over into the rest of the living space. The wall on the right is a full window wall with a door out to the balcony.<br />Also, you can see that I stacked the washrooms and kept them horizontal to the kitchen. This is the most efficient plan for plumbing.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjH2WQ4I3_2GTovsHNXYnhX7ADvMiAplTPJyDAgMakfCeUkCIJ06SSoPx69vJ4pR3mdfWkp2F5jOy38PJGaw3XC6zzp2eAImQb8QWIna-zpDtl_zDylbJqT6Liv23QiAxA66n7_4UNehQtT/s1600/024.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjH2WQ4I3_2GTovsHNXYnhX7ADvMiAplTPJyDAgMakfCeUkCIJ06SSoPx69vJ4pR3mdfWkp2F5jOy38PJGaw3XC6zzp2eAImQb8QWIna-zpDtl_zDylbJqT6Liv23QiAxA66n7_4UNehQtT/s640/024.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>Here is a sectional elevation giving you a better idea of the space. I located the television under the stairs to keep it somewhat out of sight and also to protect it from the glare of the massive window wall.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2D_5CPk7rIQkw3qkyXQiVFARkj3yRZr_VDNehs_zbCCDvFpbGS0F3n0kYyFMDa7TxKEyOuAIwxmflnVKJnSJ6_cbQbUFUy2jNB0T9MvoHxsDYfzlb5hABXTgUM77xX-ewgqhoknRH9jrs/s1600/025.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2D_5CPk7rIQkw3qkyXQiVFARkj3yRZr_VDNehs_zbCCDvFpbGS0F3n0kYyFMDa7TxKEyOuAIwxmflnVKJnSJ6_cbQbUFUy2jNB0T9MvoHxsDYfzlb5hABXTgUM77xX-ewgqhoknRH9jrs/s640/025.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>This is my favourite elevation that I've done so far. This wall of the loft has the original exposed brick. A large sliding glass door leads into the office.<br /><br />Now a bit about my client and inspiration. My client is a young, single man in his early 30s who has a successful career in advertising. He is a guy's guy, who loves having the his friends over to watch the game and play poker. While he loves and fully embraces the downtown sophistocated lifestyle, he also loves the outdoors. I wanted to bring these contrasting but equally traditionally masculine aesthetics together in the space. Thus, menswear became my inspiration:<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUECXx-_qydB8quzBwczfEkwyy2BB_yWiv3i4mgk5KN3YFRUjdasajfQW8wMP7JZLvkmvcmjuIoO33mfsUSiQtg8r9pmrzP4VMGb8i5L07iwnhp649IhRXMcBqSw0P621Qv18GvWRyvmMJ/s1600/020.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUECXx-_qydB8quzBwczfEkwyy2BB_yWiv3i4mgk5KN3YFRUjdasajfQW8wMP7JZLvkmvcmjuIoO33mfsUSiQtg8r9pmrzP4VMGb8i5L07iwnhp649IhRXMcBqSw0P621Qv18GvWRyvmMJ/s640/020.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>Specifically these dueling looks of Ryan Gosling... I mean, does it get any better?<br />(Parti is the essential idea or concept of a space).<br /><br />Here are the products that I used to bring this idea to life:<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgK03xkccVEfIOBcpnxTaql-q7nBhaODtl3CK04R-oycgnmkfG04y1BzhxJDgicyvP04WhNUXERMHp00wkaYy7OQWIkMA1tvZnWWDv7Q2hpHvR3PF9nVFYacGRygwPzyW78kKwoHIF_Glgb/s1600/018.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="404" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgK03xkccVEfIOBcpnxTaql-q7nBhaODtl3CK04R-oycgnmkfG04y1BzhxJDgicyvP04WhNUXERMHp00wkaYy7OQWIkMA1tvZnWWDv7Q2hpHvR3PF9nVFYacGRygwPzyW78kKwoHIF_Glgb/s640/018.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>Mid century modern pieces, industrial touches, a grey palette with warm teak and orange toned woods, suiting fabrics, etc. I also think the ceramic deer head is the perfect blend of rustic and urban!<br /><br />Finally here is the piece de resistance, my model, where my drawings and concept are brought to life:<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhdS4CWX9WGZiyaR-35GkfvCBq3kjADS3-eb5RP3T4CXaGdgERHhUP0OVFS0hC83CuQxh2nt2VupXYQkX3Z0ppMVIgrdjKuJ4h3PejByOo3tqvGGEVgANMSMS1VxwDWT5s_njA_6LRvAMr/s1600/010.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhdS4CWX9WGZiyaR-35GkfvCBq3kjADS3-eb5RP3T4CXaGdgERHhUP0OVFS0hC83CuQxh2nt2VupXYQkX3Z0ppMVIgrdjKuJ4h3PejByOo3tqvGGEVgANMSMS1VxwDWT5s_njA_6LRvAMr/s640/010.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5DIhMmMRnBwOBzQltsoUWwBPdFDA-yaDlyTxTfbwOq7mypGae0o8uN9qjObnq9r-A9vDPNHtAhZLWXYAbNfWppkF-y0gmKRWcfTPC0z9haJbMVHQ-CxxeLNMCDIA8ZUUT_HnKJld7GHLm/s1600/011.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5DIhMmMRnBwOBzQltsoUWwBPdFDA-yaDlyTxTfbwOq7mypGae0o8uN9qjObnq9r-A9vDPNHtAhZLWXYAbNfWppkF-y0gmKRWcfTPC0z9haJbMVHQ-CxxeLNMCDIA8ZUUT_HnKJld7GHLm/s640/011.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I'm so glad to be done, but it was a very fun project! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">If this is how term one wraps up...I'm a little bit scared for term two!</div>xox <br /><a href="http://s1254.photobucket.com/albums/hh609/tiffanyleighinteriordesign/?action=view&current=Tiffany-27.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://i1254.photobucket.com/albums/hh609/tiffanyleighinteriordesign/Tiffany-27.jpg" /></a></div>

With a Sombre Heart

<div style="text-align: center;">Yesterday, I sat down to write this post and was so overcome with emotion and sadness that I simply could not find the words. So I closed my computer and said a prayer, a prayer for all of those who lost their lives in Friday's unspeakable tragedy, and a prayer for all of the loved ones left behind to grieve the loss of lives taken far too soon. I pray that God will help to guide these families towards a future of healing and happiness, and that He will help them to find the strength and courage to make it through the dark days ahead. Sometimes, when there are no words, a prayer is the best remedy.<br />Heaven has some new angels this week. May they be safe in happy in a place much better than our own world. My deepest thoughts, sympathy, prayers, and love goes out to all those who need it during this difficult and devastating time.  <br /><a href="http://s1254.photobucket.com/albums/hh609/tiffanyleighinteriordesign/?action=view&current=Tiffany-27.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://i1254.photobucket.com/albums/hh609/tiffanyleighinteriordesign/Tiffany-27.jpg" /></a></div>

Tartan for the Holidays

Make-Shift Christmas Vignette

<div style="text-align: center;">One of the things that I'm struggling with this holiday season is being away at school with no Christmas decorations to keep up my festive spirit during finals.

Style Staple: Fur Stole

<div style="text-align: center;">An accessory that I'm loving these days are fur stoles.<br />Evidently, I was a pretty cool kid.

Feeling Blessed in the City

<div style="text-align: center;">Yesterday, I ventured downtown via subway to check out the Art Gallery of Ontario with two of my classmates. We have an architectural analysis project in which we are required to visit a building in the city, experience it, sketch it, and photograph it. We chose the AGO for its stunning addition by Toronto-born architect Frank Gehry.<br />The Galleria Italia was most impressive:<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMxWga-_4_Hv4UbQgj0q3WLGG-3wcu7jgo9tk6m8BNi81TwmH1QChVoKEJzommAPXB0Am8wlesd7WG6j1gkG7fxWweOeR0-X7vIHn9VTzeSpkb9xL6kP3uPX7mu6tSaUNA5nncS0FecOhR/s1600/IMG_4875.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMxWga-_4_Hv4UbQgj0q3WLGG-3wcu7jgo9tk6m8BNi81TwmH1QChVoKEJzommAPXB0Am8wlesd7WG6j1gkG7fxWweOeR0-X7vIHn9VTzeSpkb9xL6kP3uPX7mu6tSaUNA5nncS0FecOhR/s640/IMG_4875.jpeg" width="426" /></a></div>If you guys are ever in the Toronto area, I highly recommend it! It's so exciting to have such a vibrant and creative community at my doorstep.<br />How lucky am I that one member of my group is an amazingly talented professional photographer?<br /><br />Also, how lucky am I that the same classmate made the amazing gesture of an early Christmas present?:<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYMJC1E2OblkyYq6EQNMP_jsJMVnxAWNCmDLSNGUP2Z64Yphig7lgkp-ercAjy4nih1yDuqlFjeW2VDkDXCuQZxdNpKlDankvDPEkiqp7zmniWtHKEUf_d5cwZ_Yh9PdGepHQbNFOrHaFP/s1600/700.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYMJC1E2OblkyYq6EQNMP_jsJMVnxAWNCmDLSNGUP2Z64Yphig7lgkp-ercAjy4nih1yDuqlFjeW2VDkDXCuQZxdNpKlDankvDPEkiqp7zmniWtHKEUf_d5cwZ_Yh9PdGepHQbNFOrHaFP/s640/700.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>Such a nice, sweet surprise. I am so grateful to have a friend like him in the big city where I'm away from my family and it's easy to occasionally feel alienated.<br /><br />Lastly, how lucky am I that I found a permanent part time job here already?!<br />The past few weeks I've just been doing some 'temp' positions.<br /> But now, I will be working at a 'big box' store as a flooring and decor sales associate. <br />Supporting myself throughout my education has always been a commitment of mine. I made it through one degree debt free with my own hard work. Here's hoping I can do it again!<br /><br />The answer to my questions, SUPER lucky. I am so happy that God is blessing my life in so many little ways recently.<br />How have you been blessed lately?<br /><a href="http://s1254.photobucket.com/albums/hh609/tiffanyleighinteriordesign/?action=view&current=Tiffany-27.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://i1254.photobucket.com/albums/hh609/tiffanyleighinteriordesign/Tiffany-27.jpg" /></a></div>
