Dream Room

Get ready to design your dream room! Create your own miniature 1:24 scale laser cut model while learning the principles of architecture, construction, and interior design. Each session the students will meet virtually for 90 minutes and have a follow up “homework assignment” that they will be asked to complete to prepare them for the next session. Items designed by students will be manufactured (laser cut and 3D printed) on-site at The Makery and delivered to each student’s home. The class consists of both computer design as well as hands-on work using wood, paint, fabric, and more. 

WHAT WE WILL DO

  • Examine architectural terminology
  • Learn about scale and proportion in order to draft a 1:24 scale room layout
  • Develop skills in digital drawing and design for laser cutting
  • Investigate color theory and the fundamentals of interior design
  • Build a realistic room model with laser cut windows and doors
  • Design unique furniture and decorate your room with textiles, miniature wall art, and more!  

TOOLS & MACHINES WE WILL USE 

  • Inkscape design software
  • Laser cutter (manufacturing will be done for you and delivered)
  • Basic 3D modeling and design
