How to create a Interior decorating/design storyboard?
10.November, 2009
I am working on a storyboard for my decorating class. Can anyone help me?? I can’t find a thing on line! I have to have 1) a floor plan of a bedroom 2) co-responding fabrics that I would use and 3) a legend.
Here’s my problems:
1) It is a 1D drawing of the room with the use of stencils for the bed, lamps, (the actual furnature only) etc. How do I show the corresponding fabric I would use for the pillows since I am not supposed to "draw" them onto the actual floor plan of the bedroom?
2) I have only ever done square, simple rooms before, so showing the wall measurements was easy…now I have a balcony, on-suite and walk-in closet? All I have to do is a bed-room..but I wanted to do more. So, do I show the dimensions of everything? If so how? If not, how do I show the dimensions of the bedroom without making the floor plan look too messy?!
Sorry for such a long question, but I knew if anyone could help, it would be you guys! PLEASE help me!
caught doing what……..?? I don’t understand….
OK, here goes…
First mount your drawings to matte board (found in any major craft store). Use a neutral color of board OR one that compliments your color scheme.
For your corresponding fabrics and textures, take a swatch and do 1 of 2 things. Either use pinking shears to cut the squares and mount them flat to the board OR wrap them around pieces of foam core (craft store again) to give the a 3D look. Place them around the drawing, not on the drawing.
Using spray adhesive works well, but be careful and practice first. That stuff and get onto everything if you aren’t careful. When I did my boards, I always took my drawings to Kinkos and had copies made. This way I always had a back up should something go arwy.
Draw your measurement on the OUTSIDE of the walls. Use about a 1/4" space from the wall to your writings.
I hope this helps, good luck!!
