Descriptions and Directions for Movers...
Floor of Prada's private space at the lower level...
I separated Prada's private pace for her design team since she feels pressure from their fear of her designing something that won't sell(from one of her interview...).
The floor can move up and down with trigger control (the control is above the gold clothes hanger) so that Prada can choose to think alone in her private space away from her design team...or working together with her team at the times that she wants.
Prada's space went up and away from her team...
Prada's private space with her coffee table and chair...
The view of the meeting space from Prada's elevator's view point...
This monitor is used when Prada has some inspiration from images or video and she wants to show them to her team to let them understand more of her ideas...
(the monitor 's control is at the middle of the monitor... trigger control...)
Madonna's monitor....
This monitor is to show her works, songs and works as mirror when she is practicing her routine...
By the way, the little pink things in Madonna's space are her stereo system and camera for the monitor.
For them(dancers) to get back to their dancing studio...they need to shoot at the stair that is right opposite of the elevator....shoot it so the mover would come...it's a bit slow due to the delay... but it will come...the elevator's movement is visible from the red area...

(show by the red circles...please shoot the red area or the mover won't move )
First for Madonna's elevator...to bring her to the meeting space
It is on the ground just in front of the elevator
In the meeting place....
This is the mover(6) for the sphere to open when Madonna's elevator arrives.... when you are nearly to the meeting place it is a good idea to shoot this area... or you would not be able to get out from it and the elevator will bring you back to Madonna's space...

Movers and Triggers in Prada's design team's space...there are three
(From the left...)
Mover3
...is for the monitor to show Madonna's images. All you need to do is shoot the red area then BOO! The monitor is for Prada to show her inspiration to her design team since she doesn't do any practical stuff herself(interview).
Mover4
...is for Prada's elevator to go meeting place from her space....it's on the wardrobe...just shoot it when the character is in the elevator...or the mover would leave you.
...Although I have set ALL the movers with longer delay just in case some people might not as faimlia with the movers and elevators as I do.
Mover5
...Above the gold clothes hanger...it is the trigger that lower Prada's private space to the team's level when she wants to go/leave the lower/upper level.
For the designers' elevator
When they want to have a break in the relaxation area...after the hop on to the elevator...they need to turn the trigger (13)on by shooting the red area...
In the relaxation area for the designers/dancers...
When the designers want to go back to their studio...when they hop on to this elevator, they need to shoot the area(8) in front of the elevator as the indication.
In Madonna's space...
The dancers have to walk up the glass ramp and get to the top of it to take their elevator which leads them to the relaxation area.
The trigger(9) for this elevator is on the ground just in front of the elevator...
For them(dancers) to get back to their dancing studio...they need to shoot at the stair that is right opposite of the elevator....shoot it so the mover would come...it's a bit slow due to the delay... but it will come...the elevator's movement is visible from the red area...
A brief tour and explanations for the map
The full view of the map...
Prada's sign on the outside of the bridge
The meeting place, Madonna's elevator, elevator for Madonna's dancers, and the top view of Madonna's office are visible from this view...
I used my own textures for Prada's surface and the floor for meeting place...
The texture for Prada's surface indicates the fashion trend....it's not always straight line and has different direction. The textures for the meeting place is bean-like, the shapes surrounds each other. I think that's how the two clients work, they need to cooperate each other, tolerate with each other to make good works.
Prada's design team's office...with mannequins and drawing/working tables.
I also put some simple wardrobe for the team to store their works. The gold mannequin is for final works which will be viewed by Prada. The gold clothes hanger in the middle is also for final works...when there are too many, the team can hang the works on the gold clothes hanger.
The outside view from design team's office...
This image also shows parts of the design team elevator which will lead them to their relaxing space and part of Madonna's elevator in the meeting space...
View from the meeting place...player standing on the meeting/dinning table...
The bottom of Prada's space is visible...with my own textures....I use the funky looking texture's for the inner floor of Prada's office because the way she design and the things she design is 'sort of' out of the trend. Also she has said in one of her interview that she does not want to see anything that is not new....This texture gives me the feeling of changing and new therefore I used it for her space.

It is made of spheres and circles...like I said because I want to balance the power of the two clients instead of one taking over another. I lifted it up by doubling the same shape and place it one on the other...because I do not want to put chairs for this table. 
I used the inspiration from the video of Ayumi's concert and made a sphere-shape opening for the elevator...

I lifted it up by doubling the same shape and place it one on the other...because I do not want to put chairs for this table. The reason for no chairs is because although this is a place for the two clients to two about their works, it is also a place for them to relax and have something to eat... sitting down one opposites another gives me a feeling of stressing.
In result of that thinking I figured it might be better to give them a round shape and let them choose wherever they want to sit instead specifying where to sit.
The sitting place is big enough for the two clients to sit or lie on it...which can be seen in the image.
The mover for Madonna's elevator and the cover of the meeting place...
The mover for Madonna's elevator and the cover of the meeting place...
I used the inspiration from the video of Ayumi's concert and made a sphere-shape opening for the elevator...Although the two clients' power need to be balanced...Madonna is a star...She deserves/requires a significant and awsome entrance when she is working...
This contrasts with Prada... who is known to be her 'shyness' in her fashion show...different to common designer who walk out from the backstage and thank the audiences...Prada prefers to hide in the backstage and only have small peaks during the show instead of coming out...
Therefore comparing with Madonna, Prada's entrance from her office to the meeting place is not as special as Madonna.
Two images show the moving covering for the meeting place...the covering is for the change of weather...that is raining ...

Circles(Spheres) in the environment...
In my environment there are many shapes of circles and spheres.
The reason for this is that I think this environment I'm building is for the two clients to work together not to fight each other therefore the power balance in the spaces is crucial.
The table is also made up of circles and spheres.
The inspiration for this concept is from King Arthur's Knights of the Round Table.

Offices and elevators in Sketchup....
Prada's Office with textures in SketchupLarge among of brown is used since that is Prada's favorite colour.
I also used my own texture, which i think is funky for her office since she seems like an abnormal(in a good way) person.
She said herself that she always designs something that has a big risk for not selling.
So unlike other designers who feel pressure from the market and the press, Prada feels more pressure from her team, who always worries that she is designing something not for the trend.
That's a reason why I separate her office from her design team.
The two parts can be joint by lowering Prada's personal space. But when she wants to be alone or doesn't want to feel any pressure from her team, her space can move up to be away from them.
Madonna's Office without textures...
The spiral stair surrounds the main stage at the lower ground. So the audience and her team can watch her practice from above.
Sort of an atmosphere that people get in a concert.

Pink is for her feminine quality and the linear texture[mine] is for her movement when she dances.
