BROOKE KAMINS, LEED GA DESIGNER | INNOVATOR | CREATOR Artistic expression is what I believe is the basis for the visions that bring about great change and has also challenged visionaries for centuries to push past realistic boundaries. I, in turn, challenge myself as a student designer, to design using the principles of art to evolve my own concepts. My past art studios, including an international studio, have acclimated me to both the history and principles of a world that so closely coincides with design. My endeavors in art have also sparked my interest for product design, branding, art curation, and 3-D installations within interiors. Both retail and hospitality design have become stimulating focuses of mine because they include these design components, and they further motivate me to explore and build upon my visions. My objective is for the spaces that I create to inspire people and spark a change in thought, and that starts with my own vision.

OPEN DINING RENDERING A BROOKE KAMINS

CONFIDENTIAL CLIENT : SOPHISTICATED BLUES Concept Development The existing small-scale restaurant is located on the mixed-use ground level of an office building, To create a unique and inviting space in contrast to the connected office lobby, the Perkins and Will team used sophisticated colors, a variety of textures, and a mix of lighting levels. Custom millwork and lighting further brings individuality and character to the space. With comfort and function in mind, the team has specified a variety of seating to serve the customer experience. Construction is set to be completed in the spring of 2020.

PREFUNCTION SPACE VIEW A BROOKE KAMINS

311 WEST MONROE : LOWER LEVEL Program and Concept Development Formerly occupied by BMO Harris Bank, the lower level now uses elements of the buildingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history as a backdrop for sophisticated and modern amenity spaces. The abandoned elevator shaft has been transformed to showcase a glass art installation, while the existing vault has now become a lively music vault, where users can go and listen to records or play the guitar. Bowling lanes, shuffleboard, billiards, fitness center, and a full-service bar occupy the remaning spaces on the lower level. The concept for the lower level stems from underground bar inspiration, with dark and moody colors to set the tone for the underground gathering spaces.

LOUNGE AND MUSIC VAULT VIEW C BROOKE KAMINS

311 WEST MONROE : LEVEL15 Program and Concept Development The design of level 15 aimed to create a new identity for the 1969 building. To create the feeling of an outdoor terrace to be used in all Chicago seasons, vertical motorized sliding window systems were incorporated. The illusion of skylights were created through LED panels integrated into the exposed waffle structure above. The â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;airyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; aesthetic was continued throughout the space through the use of light finishes, contrasting textures, and several levels of illumination. Abstract art and an array of plants further layer and complete the space.

NEXT : PARADIGM SHIFT Concept Development The healthcare industry is undergoing a shift in its paradigm. Wellness and preventive care are becoming the focus of patient care in the modern healthcare facility, as opposed reactive care. Changing generations, lifestyles, economic factors, advances in technology, and our views as a society are motivating a drastic shift in the approach of patient care. Just as activity in the Earthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mantle causes exciting and measurable changes to a landscape, healthcare will also experience energized change through these influential advances. As healthcare evolves into into this new era, the role of the patient will be redefined. Technology now is becoming a crucial a resource to patients, and as they are able to gain information about their own health, they are prompted to take a greater role in their health and wellness. Design, therefore, should also be informed by the role of technology and the change it is bringing. Next will actively foster these changes by providing spaces for a variety of interaction levels. As the needs of patients will continue to change, Next will be a progressive place of care to faciliate the paradigm shift in healthcare.

A regional system of multiple shallow east-west thrust faults, or reverse faults, and strike-slip faults that cross the Puget Sound and through Seattle The thrusting movement of the rock masses along the fault lines creates higher and lower levels of land. The thrusting fault movement along the major Seattle Fault Line created areas referred to as the Seattle Basin and the Seattle Uplift.

BROOKE KAMINS

f/2 : A LARGER EXPOSURE Corporate & community space for creative expression f/2 is a company geared towards the creation and the exhibition of the individual story. f/2 empowers its users by giving them the tools to create powerful visual narratives with just the swipe of a finger. They believe that creative expression should not come with a price tag; rather, it should be accessible to all. A wider exposure not only makes for a brighter photograph, but it also allows for more conception, or a change in thought. F-stops Focal Ratios Aperture width became the inspiration for the brand and logo creation. F/2 is an f-stop setting, or focal ratio, that allows for a high level of exposure to enter the lens. Capture time with a higher exposure level is typically decreased, compared to higher f-stop settings. A lower focal ratio also denotes a lesser depth of field, which allows for the more precise focus on one object in the focal view.

INTERACTIVE MODEL - ORIENTATION CHANGES FRONT ELEVATIONS Rods were utilized and attached to triangular geometries that would hover over the stationary object while it is placed in its orientation within the landscape. Several geometries are connected to a single rod, and as the orientation of the object below changes, the the height of the rod would robotically be maniuplated to change as well.

05 RETAIL & HEALTHCARE DESIGN Kroger Total Health : PAVE Student Competition

BUILDING SECTION NORTH VIEW BROOKE KAMINS

KROGER TOTAL HEALTH PAVE Student Competition The idea that our well-being starts from within and radiates out to other disciplines of our healthy lifestyles is the basis of the concept of ‘The Core.’ ‘The Core’ represents how every facet of working towards our healthy lifestyles start from within, then radiates out to our other healthy activities and will even be preventative against serious health issues in the future. The new concept of Total Health will be a focal point of Kroger’s image, as it welcomes and draws in both patients and prospective on-lookers. Visual examples of the ideas of ‘The Core,’ such as centrality and radiation, are widely seen in nature. For example, the center of an apple or pear, the rings inside a tree trunk, and the sun with its rays, all have a central point of origin. The materiality and color palette of ‘The Core’ are derived from these findings in nature, but have also inspired the dynamic three-dimensional forms within the design. The elements designed and implemented serve as unique and interactive approaches to an otherwise pragmatic retail industry.
