List in separate piece of paper 3 ideas for design projects you are passionate about

1 - A personal studio come cafe.
    A space that would inspire me and others who come there to create art works that reflect the artist we are. All kind of artists would be welcomed there, a social place with a lot of artistic expressions from which different kinds of people and artists can take inspiration.
  
2 – A Photoshop
    A place where I can sell all my photographs. I will also collaborate with other artists who can sell their work too, with or without modifications that I suggest.

3 – An Online Forum
   According to this idea I want to open an online portal where people can buy and sell and bid on extremely rare art works.

5
List road blocks to achieve this. Lack of funds/time/knowledge/partners/.
How can you work around these road blocks?

1 -
    The road blocks would be lack of necessary funds or the lack of ideal space and location issues.
Applying for a loan would be one the initial step.  
2 –
    The road block for this idea would be lack of adequate knowledge of the business field; necessary research will have to be done before hand.

3 -

    The road block for this idea will be bringing together the artists who are willing to display and sell their work, Questionnaires could be sent out along with advertisements of the online forum, and mobile apps will be available too.
