Design Deliverables: 1. Interior Color Palette complimenting the Pennsylvania Poconos 2. Floor Plan and furniture arrangement for second floor (1/4 scale) 3. Furnishes, accessories and lighting for Lobby and Living Room. The design solution must include all required spaces with the minimum square footages specified. 4. Finishes The Camp s board is interested in quality finishes and has requested to see samples for the Lobby and Living Room. Samples should reflect the actual products, materials, and furnishings selected and are to appear on the sample boards. Additional finishes are optional and may be included if space permits on the design boards. 5. Elevation a 2D elevation (1/2 scale) will provide the client with an elevation of the lobby. It is to capture the welcoming and natural environment of the camp when entering. Include the width of the area and ceiling height of the lobby, as well as all treatments for floors, walls, windows; architectural details; furnishings and materials, fixtures, and colors as is appropriate. 6. Client Invoice The camp s board has not established a budget at this time but has requested reasonably priced new furnishings be selected for the lobby and the living room. Create an invoice billing the client for five different furnishings and flooring that have been ordered for a particular space and the time involved for coordinating the order. As a student designer your billable rate is $50 per hour. Labor costs, installation, or shipping and handling fees will not be billed. The construction HVAC and electrical work will be outsourced and should not be billed to the client. Calculate invoice tax based on your state s current tax percentage. Taxes will be calculated on furnishings and flooring. Billable hours are a service and are not taxed. A sample invoice template can be found in the FCCLA resources. Note: the client has provided a floor plan. This plan may have readability issues when printed on 8 ½ x 11 paper. Please use your computer s view/zoom feature if needed to obtain the scale according to the designated floor plan dimensions. Student designers should indicate a general layout of the kitchen as part of the function and efficiency of this space. The design of an ADA toilet room is emphasized in this scenario. A reliable source for clearances if the NKBA Planning Guide (Kitchen 8 & 9). NKBA provides appropriate seating and traffic clearances for all eating areas. The NKBA Planning Guidelines are available on the STAR Events Resources page on the National FCCLA website.
