Interior Design as a Career

Interior designers need to be creative, imaginative and artistic. They also need to be disciplined, organized and skilled business people. Combining aesthetic vision with practical skills and knowledge, interior designers work with clients to develop design solutions that are "aesthetically appealing, technically sophisticated and pragmatically satisfying."

as a career

Why red makes people hungry?. Interior designers make a room. They transform it with color, furniture placement, accessories — and generally work their magic. They are also specialists in combining form and function. Restaurants can be designed to be austere and upscale or regal and formal. Beautiful upholstered chairs here. A wall of red to enhance the appetite and create visual interest there.

Interior Design...

Interior design is
the art or practice of planning and supervising the design and execution of architectural interiors and their furnishings as well I can say in a simple another simple way:planning and design of man-made spaces, a part of environmental design and closely related to architecture.
What is interior design?
the total creative solution for a programmed interior. It encompasses the conceptual planning aesthetic and technical solutions applied to achieve the desired result. A "programmed interior" means intended purpose or use of the built environment.

Think"Modular" Modulares are best for people who live in condos and other places where space might be an issue, a modular piece will. Instead of wasting a corner space, it can tie elements together and give you that extra space you need storage feature and stablishing a focal point for the room, are two ways to make the most of a small living space"plce saving"

Many factors come to play in formulating the design solotion. There is space itself-its dimentions and construction-with its potential and its limitations, There is how the space will be used -for work or leisure, entertainment or worship, healing or learning. Therre is the meraning of space, what it signifies-be it power, authority, security, windom, access, amount of light acoustics, seating and places to store or set things down . There are health and safety considerations, attention to special needs and more.

Modern Art:(Paul Cezanne)

Some call him the father of Modern Art. After fifty years of the most radical change in art from images to free abstraction, Cezanne's paintings, wich looks old-fasioned today in its attachments to nuture,mantains itself fresh and stimulating to young painters of our time. He has produced no school, buthe has given and impulse directly or indirectly to almost every new movement since he died. His power to excite artist of different tendency and temperanment os due, I think, to the fact that he realized with equal fullness so many different size of his art.It has often been true leading modern painters that they developed a single idea with great force.

May I repeat what I have told you here:
treat nature by means of the cylinder, the sphere, the cone, everything brought into proper perspective so that each side of an object or a plane is directed towards a central point. Lines parallel to the horizon give breadth... lines perpendicular to this horizon give depth. But nature for us men is more depth than surface, whence the need to introduce into our light vibrations, represented by the reds and yellows, a sufficient amount of blueness to give the feel of air."

Paul Cézanne to Emile Bernard, 15 April,1904

Abstract-Expressionism

Abstract Expressionism: Centered in New York from 1946 through the 1960's, is a form of art in which the artist expresses himself purely through the use of form and color. However great a disaster World War II was, at least something important happened. In leaving Europe for the safety of the USA, artists such as: Piet Mondrian, Max Ernst, greatly extended their artistic influence.

Piet Mondrian

Max Ernst

In the 1940s and 50s, for the first time, American artists became internationally important with their new vision and new artistic vocabulary known as Abstract Expressionism.
Now considered to be the first American artistic movement of world wide importance, this movement put New York in the forefront, replacing Paris as the center of the art world. The term was originally used to describe the work of Archille Gorky and Jackson Pollock.

Gorky

Pollock

The painters who came to be called"Abstract Expressionists" shared a similarity of outlook rather than style--an outlook characterized by a spirit of revolt and a belief in freedom of expression. The main exponents of the genre were Pollock, De Kooning, and Rothko, but other artists include Philip Guston, Franz Kline, Newman and Still. The Term Abstract Expressionism was first used by Robert Coates in the March issue of The New Yorker in 1936. The movement was hugely successful, partly due to the efforts of the critics Harold Rosenberg and Clement Greenberg, who also originated the terms Action Painting and American Style.

"Eagle Nebula"

Eagle Nebula
From afar, the whole thing looks like an Eagle. A closer look at the Eagle Nebula, however, shows the bright region is actually a window into the center of a larger dark shell of dust. Through this window, a brightly-lit workshop appears where a whole open cluster of stars is being formed. In this cavity tall pillarsand round globules of dark dust and cold molecular gas remain where stars are still forming. Already visible are several young bright blue stars whose light and winds are burning away and pushing back the remaining filaments and walls of gas and dust. The Eagle emission nebula, tagged M16, lies about 6500 .gov/docs/Starlight years away, spans about 20 light-years, and is visible with binoculars toward the constellation of Serpens. The above picture combines three specific emitted colors and was taken with the 0.9-meter telescope on Kitt Peak, Arizona, USA.

Scientists, cosmologists, astrophysicists, see the universe as a world of stellar beauty full of wonders. They've more questions then are answers. The universe is a stunning, and puzzling in its beauty of divine power of heavenly creation, I would say mostly everyone, and scholars alike have questions about what they see in the sky. The answers may vary depending on the philosophical, and creative knowledge of the individual.


When I see a pictures have been taken by Hubble, seeing these breathtaking photographs of the universe, always amazed me. The Hubble telescope is one of the most powerful of its kind, and is needed to appreciate the hidden beauty the universe offers.

I find these galaxies photograpgs are in the heaven so incredibly beautiful. Even though some of these galaxies are million , and millions of light years away from our galaxy, are counter-part of this milky way galaxy.

Young galaxy Furthermore there are some galaxies they haven't been discovered yet never the less exist. When I see these heavenly bodies incredible images. I always think about Professor Hawking's statement that goes something like this: "My goal is simple, it is a complete understanding of the universe, why it is as it is and why it exits at all"

The reunion of conscious and unconscious realms of experience so complete that the world of dream and fantasy be joined to the everyday rational world. It Flourished in Europe between World Wars I and II. Sigmund Freud one of the most influential thinkers of the 20th century has the theory that an absolute world of reality, a surreality, will joined together in everyday life, from which Andre Breton, French poet, critic, leader of Surrealism movement, saw the unconscious as wellspring of the imagination. He defined genius in terms of accessibility to this normally untapped realm which he believed could be attained by poets and artist alike. Here are some of the painters of the Surrealism movement:

Futurism: Modern Art movement that follows Cubism movement. Its first manifesto took place in Italy in the beginning of the 1900s by the Italian, Felippo tommaso Marinetti. It didn't appear until the end of World war I. Visual art, music, and literature marked the efforts that would give its formal expression and mechanical processes to futurism painting. This painter was concerned with expressing movement in his paintings. This idea was taken up by Marcel Duchamp that

Introduction to Modern Painting...

Modern Art, painting, sculpture, and other forms of 20th-century art. Although scholars disagree as to precisely when the modern period began, they mostly use the term modern art to refer to art of the 20th century in Europe and the Americas, as well as in other regions under Western influence. The modern period has been a particularly innovative one. Among the 20th century’s most important contributions to the history of art are the invention of abstraction (art that does not imitate the appearance of things), the introduction of a wide range of new artistic techniques and materials, and even the redefinition of the boundaries of art itself.

Modern Art Movement (Cubism)

Cubism is an important movement of the history of Modern Art it began on the early 19th century.

Picasso introduced to us a new style called Cubism. The painting Les Demoiselles D' Avignon was the first example of this new style. Many other artists: Georges Braque; Albert Gleizes; Juan Gris; Fernand Leger; Jean Metziger, and sculptors Alexander Archipenko; Henri Laurenns contributed to the Cubism movement. Picasso and Braque were the pioneers to this period in the history of Modern Art.



I would like to suggest to go to this excellent sites Artlex.com and Cubism image Bank to learn more about it.
