Unit 6, Section 4, Exercises A and B
Teacher: Good morning. Today I’m going to talk about the three
main stages in the design process.
The first stage is to talk to the client. You have to ask a
lot of questions to find out what he or she wants.
First, ask how they use the room. What do they do
there? Do they use it to watch TV? Or to entertain
guests? After that, you should ask what the client likes
and dislikes about the room as it is now. For example,
do they like the furniture? Do they dislike certain
colors?
OK, now it’s time for the second stage. Can you guess
what that is?
Student 1: Do we have to create a plan for the room?
Teacher: No, not yet. First, you need a general design concept.
At this stage, you have to choose colors, materials, and
furniture. Then meet with the client to discuss your ideas.
After the meeting, make any necessary changes.
Student 2: So at this stage, we just think of ideas for a concept, right?
Teacher: That’s right. You have to create the “feeling” that the
client wants. And remember, you shouldn’t think about
what you like. You should think about what the client likes.
OK, now it’s time for the third and final stage in the
process. Does anyone know what that is?
Student 3: The room plan?
Teacher: Yes. Now you can create an architectural plan that shows
the exact organization of the room. When the plan is
ready, you can present it to the client. Finally, make any
last changes, and then you’re ready to start the work!

You can’t get to know the person. I think I’d like to go
