PLANNING AN ARTIST’S OR DESIGNER’S STUDIOY/504/026

LEVEL 3

AIM OF THE UNITBy completing this unit, learners will understand the requirements of artists’/designers’ workplaces, usually referred to as studios. They will be able to produce a proposed layout plan for an artist’s/designer’s studio, and understand the equipment and consumables needed for the studio. Learners will also be able to produce and present a design proposal for an artist’s/designer’s studio.

Planning an artist’s or designer’s studio Level 3 Unit 15

1 Understand the requirements for a range of art and/or design studio types

2 Be able to plan an artist’s or designer’s studio layout

3 Understand equipment and consumables needed for an artist’s or designer’s studio

4 Be able to present a final design proposal for an artist’s or designer’s studio

P1 Learners investigate and compare different types of artists’ and/or designers’ studios, considering:

a) lighting b) size/space c) access d) facilities/equipment

P2 Learners appropriately identify and compare the general requirements for a range of artists’ and/or designers’ studio types, including:

a) space b) layout c) facilities/equipment d) location/access e) health and safety

P3 Learners develop a competent layout plan for a chosen artist’s or designer’s studio, considering:

a) purpose/use b) space c) light d) access e) storage f ) services/facilities g) working

environment h) health and safety

P4 Learners explore an appropriate range of equipment and consumables for their planned studio, considering:

a) availability b) suitable suppliers c) cost/budget

P5 Learners present a competent final design proposal for an artist’s or designer’s studio, including:

a) specification and requirements

b) layout plan c) 3D visualisations of

studio d) use as a safe working

environment e) costs and budget

M1 Learners’ investigations show insight and understanding into how the type of work artists and/or designers produce affects the design of their studio

M2 Learners investigate the maintenance requirements, running costs and health and safety implications of the equipment they plan to use.

M3 Learners produce detailed specification drawings showing the location of lighting, access, storage, fixtures/fittings, services/facilities and equipment. Their 3D visualisations are of a good standard and quality

D1 Learners produce a 3D scale model of their design. Their 3D visualisations are of a high quality and convincingly communicate how the studio will look and feel

TEACHING CONTENTThe unit content describes what has to be taught to ensure that learners are able to access the highest grade.

Anything which follows an i.e. details what must be taught as part of that area of content.

Anything which follows an e.g. is illustrative, it should be noted that where e.g. is used, learners must know and be able to apply relevant examples to their work though these do not need to be the same ones specified in the unit content.

Understand the requirements for a range of art and/or design studio types

For example:

• visitingcontemporarystudios

• books,internet

• historicalstudios(e.g.Bacon,Hepworth,Picasso,Brancusi)

• streetartists

For example:

Types of studio might be animation, sculpture, photography, large-scale painting, ceramics, set design, fashion etc.

Be able to plan an artist’s or designer’s studio layout

For example:

a) typeofworkundertaken(e.g.photography,animation,painting, ceramics etc), gallery space, visits by potential customers/clients, public liability, selling work

b) size of space is fit for purpose

c) requirements for natural light, artificial light

d) for equipment, deliveries, visitors, large-scale work

e) types of materials, how to store them, sufficient space for ongoing work

f) water, electricity, drainage, ventilation

g) ergonomics, personal needs

h) fire exits, layout, heat sources.

Understand equipment and consumables needed for an artist’s or designer’s studio

Equipment, for example:

• rangeoffixturesandfittings

• rangeandpositioningofequipment

• cost/budget

• possiblesuppliers

• storageofequipmentwhennotinuse

• healthandsafetyconsiderations

Consumables, for example:

• identifywhatisneededforspecialistactivities

• consumablesneededforspecialistequipment

• cost/budget

• possiblesuppliers

• safestorageofconsumableswhennotinuse.

Be able to present a final design proposal for an artist’s or designer’s studio

For example:

Presentation could be as an exhibition or to an artist or designer, client, or teacher acting as client. It could take the form of mood boards, display boards, booklet, digital presentation, scale models etc.

a) summary of studio type and use, size of space available

b) scaled plan including lighting, access, storage, placement of fixtures/fittings, services/facilities, placement of equipment

c) ergonomics, health and safety

d) costing for consumables and equipment, funding.

Planning an artist’s or designer’s studio Level 3 Unit 15

DELIVERY GUIDANCEThis unit is centre-assessed and externally moderated.

In order to achieve this unit, learners must produce a portfolio of evidence showing that they can meet all the pass grading criteria.

Portfolios of work must be produced independently. Portfolios put forward for moderation must be available for the OCR Visiting Moderator to access freely during the moderation visit, along with witness statements and any other necessary supporting documentation.

Centres must confirm to OCR that the evidence produced by learners is authentic.

In order to achieve this unit, learners must produce evidence that meets the all the pass grading criteria. There are no other additional requirements for this unit.

Learners should carry out a general investigation into a range of contemporary art and design workplaces – referred to in this unit as artists/designers studios. Their investigations will initiate an understanding of the constraints, demands and considerations facing learners as they gather evidence for P1/M1 and P2. Visits to working studios can clearly provide a focus for evidence whilst a range of studio types should allow learners to initially keep their options open and allow them to develop a broader understanding. Links with other units could be made, for example, through the use of investigations into historical artists studios.

Initial investigations will allow learners to consider and then select a studio type of particular personal interest to develop a proposed layout plan in P3. It is expected that plans will take account of current industry standard practices and provide evidence of considerations into all aspects and requirements of a studio.

Assessment evidence for P4/M2 could be achieved in a number of ways, for example, by the learner applying for a ‘start up’ loan or arts funding grant and having to estimate costing for equipment and consumables using suppliers they have sourced.

A final presentation of the complete design proposal P5/M3/D1 could be done as an exhibition, or live to a client or a teacher acting as a client and could involve a digital presentation, display, booklet etc. A witness evidence sheet

or audio/visual recording could be used to provide evidence of the presentation.

Evidence for this unit may take different forms depending on the approach adopted and studio type planned but it is expected that annotated sketchbooks/personal journals will hold much of the evidence of investigations, visits, research, planning etc. and that evidence of the final design proposal will include appropriate examples in the form of, for example, plans, models, digital presentations, sketches, digital images etc.

For the purpose of this unit a ‘studio’ is the work place of a professional artist, designer, craftsperson or visual artist working in any discipline.
