My design philosophy is centered on sustainable design and how its positive impacts can effect change in our world. As a designer I am allowed the opportunity to be creative on a daily basis while also getting to find solutions to problems that will benefit others. Design also provides a certain amount of variety with each new project. This feature appeals to my logical side that wants to find the most effective and unique solution to each new problem. When designing I tend to have a minimalist view on the spaces and enjoy creating areas that are extremely functional yet also simple and elegant. As a designer I have the chance to improve peoples’ lives and bring about change in our society through well thought out spaces that follow the principles of form follows function.

Challenge: The model for a typical convenience store is evolving in America. This project challenged me to develop a design that took into account branding and customer experience in a retail environment.
The concept for this convenience store is the Greek word agora which was an open-air space in the center of ancient Greek cities. The literal translation of agora is “gathering space” which inspired the idea of a nucleus within neighborhoods, where people could gather and form a community.

Corporate Design: Lululemon Headquarters
Duration: 6 WeeksLocation: Denver, ColoradoSQ FT: 10,000Year: Junior
Challenge: This project tasked me with producing a design for the new office headquarters of Lululemon. The design challenged me to confront the ideas of the modern office, efficiency in the workplace, and employee satisfaction. All while complying with LEED green building rating systems from the U.S.G.B.C, making this a LEED Certified project.
Concept: The concept for this project was a clearing in the center of a dense forest. Overall use of line and shape within the space will follow cues from the forest and revolve around a vertical orientation remaining straight and geometric, like the trunks of trees. A variety of textures will be used throughout the space to create interest. While architectural elements within the space will seem to encircle users to further drive the feeling of refuge, and encompassment.

Custom display case pieces under the mezzanine provide a place to showcase current projects being developed by the R&D departments.
A lowered ceiling encompassing the perimeter allows the reception area to open in the center, evoking the feeling of a clearing.
Rear concave pockets are backed with a cork material for pinning up information to share with co-workers. Fostering a community within the workplace.

Residential Design:Steiner Residence

Duration: 10 WeeksLocation: Tallahassee, FloridaSQ FT: - 1st Floor - 2,500 - 2nd Floor - 1,500Year: Senior
Challenge: This residential redesign will be completed for the Steiner family, located in Tallahassee, Florida and will consist of a full renovation of the existing building. The client hopes to receive a design that will promote a good flow and also supports their lifestyle.
Concept: The driving force behind this design will be the journey through the home, more specifically, the path the sun takes as it moves throughout the house during a day. The clients’ goal of a good flow will be realized in a layout that corresponds with the suns travels from sunrise to sunset and its impact in each space depending on the time of day and use of the room. Overall light, both natural and artificial, will be a large factor in guiding users throughout the space.
Early mornings getting the kids ready for school, and yourselves up and going will be enhanced by the bright and airy atmosphere emanating from the kitchen. A large island, along with a separate booth provides enough seating for the whole family, and a strip of windows doubles as a back splash along one wall to capitalize on natural light. As soon as the sun rises the kitchen is bathed in direct sunlight, providing energy and giving your family that kick to start their day.

The living room will be a comfortable and inviting space free of clutter, lending itself to be the perfect place for celebrating special occasions. This room will receive ample indirect natural light which as studies have shown, can help make a space feel welcoming. Utilizing built-ins provides more than enough room to set up a Christmas tree in one corner, and take the rare opportunity in Florida to
settle down to in front of the fire on a particularly cold winter day.
