You Are Now Ready To Enlarge Your Graphic Ideas On The Larger Printed

You are now ready to enlarge your graphic ideas on the larger printed format of 11" x 17" (also known as tabloid size) and create a layout for an interior design profession document or presentation. This exercise is primarily about the graphic layout of the presentation, with interior design being secondary. For this assignment, you will create three 11" x 17" sheets for a schematic design (SD) presentation, focusing on a kitchen floor plan with materials and finishes.

During the SD phase, options are typically shown, offering limited but varied possibilities to clients. The goal is to present three distinct options that align with your chosen design concept. It is important to narrow down choices to avoid overwhelming the client and to make the options clear and visually appealing. Use design principles such as balance, color storytelling, and effective organization to create a cohesive and understandable presentation.

Using the provided design concept and floor plans, locate high-quality images of finishes and materials for flooring, walls, cabinets, countertops, lighting, and hardware. Label each image with what it is and the manufacturer or brand. Include one inspirational image reflecting the design concept, such as a work of art or a photograph that embodies the color palette or mood. Each sheet must include the same floor plan at the same scale, your chosen font(s) for consistency, and a title indicating the option number and a descriptive subtitle.

Additionally, incorporate a company logo for "your design firm" with your name and contact information. Use Adobe InDesign to create the layout for each sheet, and then generate PDFs for submission. The final deliverables should include both the InDesign files and the PDF versions of all three sheets.
