Before starting to develop the environment I looked at images that could help me understand the space. As the Borrowers live in the space under the floorboards of the kitchen, I looked at dollhouses and attic/basement rooms in real houses, as I feel that rooms shaped like this would be similar to the space under the floor.
One feature of the environment I want to focus on is the fire place. In the book it is described to have been made from an old cog from a cider press, with a metal funnel acting as a chimney. I begin I designed multiple cogs, and chose to develop number 5 and 8 further.
My favourite of these ideas is a mix of 2 and 3. The cog featured in number 2 is a blend of numbers 5 and 8 from the first image. I like the cog in 2 and the funnel in 3.
