Final Evaluation:

1. How did your project interpret the theme Humanity: A


viewpoint- Explain your personal theme/approach. Human
Being needs basic necessities to survive, one being
shelter/homes to live in. When I think of homes, I think about
how the interior and how you can learn a lot about a person
based on their environment, it a way for a person to express
themselves in their own safe place.
2. How did your secondary research help you? Artist exploring
similar themes, designs, style, context? For my secondary
research, I explored three different artists. Two were interior
designers (Elsie De Wolfe and Billy Baldwin) and the other one
was a textile designer (Lucienne Day). The two-interior designer
help me grasp an understanding
3. How did your primary research from galleries helps you? How
did you use it? I went to the Whitworth Museum to get some
primary research however I couldn’t find a lot of interior design
artwork. I did find a lot of textiles artwork which really helped
me. It help me realise that people still use textile to produce
artwork about what is happening for example the artist Bharti
Parmar made an embroidery piece about COVID19
4. What did you learn about the topics as you went along – give
examples. I Learnt about a lot about the three different artists,
especially about Elsie De Wolfe and how she was the first-ever
female artist and also that interior designers can have mentees,
for example, Billy Baldwin had a mentee who later co-founded
an interior design firm with another interior designer.
5. What were the biggest problems you had with the project and
how did you overcome them? Whist working on my final
project I worked with wax and ink for the first time because of
this I accidentally poured a bit too much on one of the boxes
however it dried I got advice from my teacher to get a fork and
try to make little designs in the big blobs of wax.
6. Were there any problems you couldn’t solve- if so, why? Before
I choose to make my final project about textile, I want to do
four/three little model on interior designers inspired from
different eras, but I didn’t know the software as the teacher
that was going to help me had covid therefore I had to change
my final project mid-way.
7. How did you manage your time? What helped you keep on
track? I felt as if I could have managed my time better, this was
because I thought I had more time than I really did. The
teachers and my friend really helped a lot with keeping me on
track.
8. Outline any ways in which you could have improved your
project if you had the time? I would have tried to work out the
software by myself. I could have done this by watching tutorials
on YouTube. Another thing is that I could have researched a
modern-day textile designer and possibly have tried to do a
quick sketch or made a zoomed-in version of their work.
9. Review your project proposal- What worked well and what
didn’t? As I stated in question 6 that my final project was going
to be drastically different than it is now because of this project
proposal had to be changed. In my project proposal, I was going
to research about this interior designer (Mr Kate) that is a
YouTube, especially since YouTube is one of the most used
platforms. Using Mr Kate as an interior word help me
understand the current trends in interior design. I was also
going to find some interesting furniture to sketch in different
mediums such as colour pencils, charcoal, mark making and
monoprint.
10. How did your experiments with different materials and
techniques go? How did they help you to develop your designs?
I used a lot of materials such as wax and ink to make my final
project, the ink made the piece colourful and bright whereas
the wax stop the piece from being obnoxious by stopping the
ink from going to some places, therefore making just enough
colour (on the piece) to the point where it is not clashing with
the other colours
11. Did you give enough time to continue the sketchbook
evaluation? I did get given enough time to complete my
sketchbook evaluation and I believe that it is quite good.
