Good Vibes Ice Cream Shop

This is one of my favourite projects from the interior classes in the program. This is my ice cream shop made from shipping containers. My clients are a NITRO ice cream shop. The goal is to use (2) two 20’ shipping containers to create the space that will house their business which has to both store, fabricate, sell ice cream. I must of course accommodate and inspire customers to come in and buy!

I love to get ice cream, I mean who doesn't?! Everytime I go get ice cream whether it's with family or friends, it's such a happy time and a good vibe, hence the name "Good Vibes Ice Cream Shop". I wanted to use a light an bright colour scheme to complement the name of the store. Since I used to work in a fast food restaurant, I can relate to space, especially in food services, being spacious and open. I wanted to enhance the function of the space by keeping it simple with no surprising corners or and elements that would obstruct the work environment. Additionally, the customers can see the process of how this cool way of ice cream is made.

To take this project the extra step, we crafted our models by a 3/8":1'0 scale using architectural task board. This was a great project to develop my Interior design skills along with my Sketchup/LayOut skills, and modelling skills.
