I have also been researching materials and finishes for my retail spaces in addition to bringing up the walls in all of the Skethcup models that I will render for my final project. In addition, I have begun to draw interior elevations for the different room typicals for my set of construction documents, which is my other focus. I researched some companies in Hospitality Design magazine, such as Kimball Hospitality, Transformations Furniture, Waterworks, Harbor Linen, Tres Molinos, Cypress Hotel and Spa, and many other manufacturers. I made contact with Scott from Kinball Hospitality to order some fabric, laminate, and wood samples.
