Design Brief

A design brief is a document for a designed project. The document is focused on the desired results of design.
So my desired design solution is spacing and storage!for a shop which I have chosen as my micro area - "Perfection Zari Shop" in Kinari Bazar.
The shop is quite small and comparatively has a bigger counter, which occupies a lot of space and makes it congested.

Aim :         My aim is to design a counter which is compact and has can be used as a                                               display too.

Objective : The objective is to provide a better walking space for the customers.

Who? I will be designing a counter for the shopkeeper.,
