PROJECT DESCRIPTION
THE WILLIAMS FAMILY
Paul and Henrietta Williams are an African American couple who were both raised in the New
York City metropolitan area. Paul is a civil engineer who works on large corporate and
government construction projects for a national engineering firm headquartered in Manhat-
tan. Henrietta is a special education teacher who works in Brooklyn. The Williams family also
includes two children- Harlan, a fifteen year old boy who attends high school, and Leena, a
twelve year old girl who attends middle school.
Paul will be working part time at home in their new house, but he enjoys a round or two of
golf with friends and business associates on the weekends. Henrietta is a gourmet cook who
likes to experiment with combining international cuisine with traditional family favorites. The
couple entertains relatives and friends frequently at home. Harlan is an avid gamer, and Leena
is beginning to show signs of interest in high fashion. The two children are also very sociable and
spend a great deal of time on their smart phones. The family is keen on outdoor activities
and sports, and they plan weekend and vacation travel to wilderness areas.

CONCEPT STATEMENT
Mid-century modern style has become and has been trendy for about a decade now. It had covered a
period of two and a half decades from the middle of the twentieth century, mid 1940s to 1970s. It had
a fresh aesthetic desire to push the postwar America into a modern era as well as recasting the design
through a bold new way. Mid century modern emphasizes on contemporary patterns, natural materials
with seamless flows from the indoors to the outdoors to create a functional comforting and elegant style.
The style brings together the organic and man made in one that amazes everyone today. This particular
style is fairy unique in a large way by being driven mass produced furniture and accents. The interiors are
made for the organic style and the ease of living, having it at its essential form with no excess detailing or
flourishes. The boldness comes in by having the geometric patterns, sensuous curves, and its
whimsical motifs that give the room a strong look. It can be heavy on textural fabrics and wool knits to
give the room a bold feel or a specific section a little more added weight. Having the warm and earthy
colors throughout the space with natural woods is the center of a mid-century palette. Having plenty
windows or glass walls and open floor plans give the space the outdoors in feel. The furniture of this time
is made of clean lines and natural hues to show their natural beauty. I like the fact that this style is a bit
simple but can have main focal points and having balance in the home. I am really drawn into the open
floor plan look with glass walls it is very modern and with a little twist of neutral colors and some bold
patterns. The way this style will influence my building is by having the openness and the access of the
outdoors, organic and man made products with the elegance of furniture pieces.

RESEARCH ANALYSIS
The Brooklyn Area
Brooklyn is a center of all cultural exchange, family fun, and nightlife that is just waiting to be discovered. The
Brooklyn Bridge is the main essence of the area with the best view of Manhattan from car, walking, or subway.
There are two quaint amusement parks in the area, Coney Island famous for their rides or AstroLand one of
NYC’s largest park. The Outdoors of Brooklyn is mesmerizing. The Brooklyn Heights Promenade, which is a
walkway, that offers wonderful views of the Manhattan skyline and the Brooklyn Bridge. Prospect Park is the
answer to Central Park, housing a zoo, Audubon center and the Brooklyn Museum of Art. The entrance is a large
Memorial Arch and it is truly the mecca for nature lovers and families, who love to bird watch, enjoy the out-
doors, play ball, and go to outdoor concerts. If you want something more family oriented, Brooklyn Park Slope
is where families go for their fun and activities. There are vibrant cafés, public transportation, many galleries and
museums, and Prospect Park. If families enjoy hiking, Red Hook is a great place to explore for a day. With its
South American foods, enjoyable and relaxed views of lower Manhattan seen from neighborhood waterfront
