Asymmetry Project. Students where given a design element to serve as the inspiration for their room. This first project was mainly a learning experience for myself and now it illustrates the base of my progression. (1/3)
Asymmetry Project. This assignment taught me how to properly construct a perspective, floor plan, elevation, and presentation board. (2/3)
Asymmetry Project. Though the taste and skill level of this project leave something to be desired, this project was intended to educate students on the technical aspects design work. Through this introductory assignment I learned valuable lessons and affirmed my love of design. (3/3)
ADA Kitchen Project. As designers, the needs of the clients come first. The clients in this situation were an elderly couple who wanted a modern kitchen that would be wheelchair friendly and fun for their grandchildren. This project was meant to educate students on the importance of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and how it is an integral part of design work.
Foreign Client Project. For this assignment we had to pick client from a foreign country who wanted their house in Kentucky to reflect their original home. I chose the Asmat Tribe of Papua New Guinea, who dwell in the rainforest.
Group Restaurant Project. Working in a small group, we created 'Happenings,' a retro lounge where patrons could enjoy a meal and a show. Happenings opened my eyes to the challenges and benefits of teamwork.
Portugal Studio Project. For this project students were given specifications for the shell of a building in Portugal and required to design the interior to serve as all inclusive student art studio. This scaled model shows my two story design that has everything a student could need, including a kitchen, restrooms, storage, conference and work areas, and a professor's office. (1/4)
Portugal Studio Project. Here are some of my first attempts at using AutoCAD to draft my work rather than doing it manually. Getting to know the program was tricky but definitely sped up the process, especially for large-scale projects. (2/4)
Portugal Studio Project. Because of the thick walls, typical of Portuguese architecture, the windows had to be limited. Working around the small windows and the tight space was a real challenge. (3/4)
Portugal Studio Project. Creating a two-story, open floor plan was the best use of the space. This allowed for all the facility's requirements to be fulfilled without it getting too cramped. (4/4)
MoMA Gift Shop Project. Students were taken to a real building that would serve as the skeleton for our design of the Museum of Modern Art's gift shop.
Vibrant Nation Office Project. 'Vibrant Nation' is a online community for mature, professional women that was in need a new office. The challenge of this project was to create an open office system that represented the company, was comfortable for the staff, and met all the facility's requirements in a tight space.
Hotel Lobby Project. For our final project, students were taken to Lutz Hall on campus and allowed to choose their own design direction. I turned the entrance of this learning facility into the lobby for 'Hotel Carmine.'
