Power of Scale

When designing a floor plan, never underestimate the power of working in scale. Take it from me, when you think a set of offices will fit into a space; always think twice when working out of scale. Ive learned that even if working on block plans, working in scale will help me in the long run from making decisions on spaces that will or will not fit into an area. Scale will also help when working with areas of large volume and area. My gallery spaces need to feel intimate enough to make patrons feel comfortable to enjoy the space. Scale, when used in many ways, its the most powerful design tool one can use. In our field, the client wants to maximize the use of every space and this can come down to the very inch of a wall.
