The design of Annink

The project interior ideas consist of four functional areas: one for sleeping, one for cooking and eating. one for bathing and one for communication. They all have the same size. It doesn't matter how they are situated relative to each other. for Annink they merely served to explore the functions the relationship between the spaces and emotion. The Structure was never meant to be built. He merely wanted to understand design. The kitchen is a room in which you take a whole range of decisions. The designer looked for causes to make things hard or soft, warm  or cold. There is one basic association: food preparation in ancient times You could catch a bear or a deer and consequently you had to divide the animal up in pieces and grill them.
The kitchen therefore was arranged around a fireplace. For sleeping also all the actions were Divided up in segments You had to climb stairs to disengage yourself from ether living function. Then you decide whether or not to get undressed. After that you enter a separate space with no roof so as to be able to see the stars. There is just one small looking hole in a wall for some contact with the outsite world. Bathing in this concept was a true cleansing process, not unlike a car wash, very physical. You start a dirty little human being, entering through A narrow portal and the cleaner you become the more space you get. You splash your way through; scrubbing, showering and end up in a large round bath, lteike small lake. The back wall runs across the lake. You can drive to other side and have contact with outside world. As a maater of fact you end up in the communication space and can converse with people outside the bathroom. The communication space id for the mind. You can talk and listen, watch screen and read books. The main dilemma of interior ideas was the separation of body and mind difficult but interesting.

The seventeenth century of interior style

The elegance and comfort of French interiors, primarily intended for the aristocracy, were universally admired and influenced other European countries such as Sweden. In Holland, a more modest version of French style developed that was acceptable to the emergent middle-classes, and Dutch imported goods were very mach in demand.
When the Stuarts were restored to the throne of England towards the end of the seventeenth century, Charles Ti and his courtiers favoured the continental baroque style, and the later rule of William and Mary of Orange resulted in further continental influence on English styles. Princesses of the House of Orange spread their enthusiasm for decorative derails such as mirrors, massed porcelain and lacquerwork through their royal marriages.
William and Mary commissioned the highly talented Daniel March, who as a result of religious persecution had fled the French court, where he had been working, to design the interiors of parts of Hampton. Court Palace.There, Marot successfully combined the skills of designer and decorator, as Le Brun had done, and his cohesive interiors can still be seen today. Huguenot refugees played an important part in English interior design development since many of them were highly skilled craftsmen. Inigo Jones, who was widely regarded as the founder of English classical architecture, also treated the interiors of his buildings as part of the whole.
The Thirty Years  War took a considerable toll on Spain and Germany and little architectural development rook place in these countries during that time. Once both economies had recovered sufficiently for building to take place, tastes had changed considerably. Early versions of German baroque showed Italian influence, but gradually an indigenous rich and complex style emerged in south Germany and Austria. Highly ornate surface decoration was a feature of seventeenth-century Spanish architecture as in the facade of Santiago de Compostela or the Dos Aguas Palace at Valencia, but the more restrained Royal Palace in Madrid and the Royal Palace of La Granja by Filippo Juvarra were influenced by the more severe French baroque style
