Icelandic Retreat

Icelandic Retreat Architecture Competition Northeastern Iceland

Time frame: Spring semester of 2018 Project description: My third year studio class participated in an architecture competition, consisting of a site that is located in the northeastern region of Iceland and borders Lake MĂ˝vatn. The lake is a popular landmark for guests to experience while traveling to Iceland, making the site a popular and convenient tourist destination. The site required eight guest room units, a guest "hub" space, a home for the hosts of the resort, a horse barn, and parking spaces for guests. Concept: I wanted the natural fascination and curiosity of the Northern Lights to translate into the overall feel of the site and its interiors. I obstructed direct views and pathways within the guest resort particularly, creating a sense of mystery and curiosity. Software used: Revit and Photoshop

The eight guest rooms that occupy the site were required to have mobility so they could move wherever on the site. The design of the units incorporate wheels so that they can easily be pulled by a truck when the desire to relocate the guest rooms arises. Two different sizes of guest rooms give larger groups of friends or family the ability to stay together in one unit comfortably. The competition emphasized the importance of allowing guests to be able to watch the Northern Lights from the comfort of their bed, resulting in the glass ceiling. The guest units filter rainwater through a filtration system in the back side of the units. They also have a sewage tank that can be emptied after each guest stay. Units would be powered through geothermal hookups located throughout the site.

The guest "hub" resort is a space for guests to gather together to experience Icelandic culture. Here, guests can eat meals in the dining room, enjoy the outdoor and indoor spa, relax in the sauna, partake in birdwatching, or even watch the Northern Lights on a large bench staircase. The architecture unites the guests with the surrounding landscape, with the iconic nearby lake driving the direction of the guest resort.

Livewell Collaborative

Livewell Collaborative Cincinnati, Ohio

Time frame: Summer semester of 2017 Project description: My studio was given the opportunity to work with Livewell Collaborative, a design firm in the Greater Cincinnati area, in creating a contemporary look for their new workplace. We were challenged to design a 5000 square foot space to meet all of the changing needs of both Livewell Collaborative and the modern-day workplace. Concept: I translated the concept of growth into a sculptural element to spark interest and drive direction. Software used: Revit, Rhino, and Photoshop

Livewell Collaborative expressed a need for both adaptability and flexibility in their new workplace. The company also wanted to be able to make studio workspaces larger or smaller in case of a need for privacy for certain clients. To satisfy this need, I used movable frosted glass wall panels that could maneuver and rotate along a ceiling track. When the movable panel system is retracted, it allows for the studio spaces to combine into larger work spaces. If a small studio needs to be formed due to project size or privacy, the panel system can be fully closed and locked on the track. I also incorporated flexible furniture throughout the space to allow for the frequent need to resize or adapt to a certain client.

I also chose to occupy the 5th floor of the building, utilizing the roof for additional workspace and event hosting, for which Livewell Collaborative expressed a need. Since all employees at Livewell operate with laptops, it becomes easy to work during the workday on the rooftop.

PAVE Competition

PAVE Competition for The Home Depot Time frame: Three months during fall semester of 2018 Project description: My fourth year studio class participated in the PAVE competition for The Home Depot. The challenge was to rethink and reinvent how The Home Depot stores can give customers the know-how they need to tackle all their home improvement projects with confidence. Students were given a list of "In-Store Ideas," from which I chose to create a new product demo space, a pro education area, and a space that brings Home Depot decor to life. Concept: Utilizing The Home Depot's ceiling height and creating a two-story space that takes on the ideals of learning, playing, and becoming inspired. Software used: Revit and Photoshop

The Decor Lounge is home to the upper level of the Design Deck. The Decor Lounge has several elements, one of which features interactive wall screens. These screens allow you to interact with The Home Depot's new Decor Pinterest account or to shop their decor. The Pinterest page allows shoppers to get inspired by images that feature decor from The Home Depot. This is the perfect opportunity to not only get inspired, but also see if those products are available in your store or otherwise have them shipped directly to your home. More interesting features within the Decor Lounge are interactive table screens and tablets. This technology allows the user to either find home decor inspiration using the Pinterest page or visualize what decor products suit their homes. Customers can upload photos of their home and drag their favorite products on the photo to visualize it within the space. They also have the opportunity to explore existing photos of various rooms if they don't have a photo to upload.

Benefit Cosmetics

Benefit Cosmetics Changi, Singapore

Time frame: One month during fall semester of 2018 Project description: This project challenged my fourth year studio to create a retail space measuring 30'x40' of our choosing in the new Changi Singapore Airport addition. I worked with a partner on this project, in which she assembled more of the presentation and graphics side while I did the digital modeling and rendering work. My partner and I chose Benefit Cosmetics because they have an existing presence within Singapore with a few individual stores, but are absent within the airport. Concept: We continued the existing branding of Benefit Cosmetics and brought it into the Changi Singapore Airport. Software used: Revit and Photoshop

In countless airports across the world, Benefit Cosmetics features the "Benefit Glam Up & Away Beauty Kiosk," which provides a similar function as a vending machine. With an individual store within the new Jewel addition to the Changi Singapore Airport, the beauty brand can expand its presence and clientele within Southeast Asia. Beauty is something frequent flyers refuse to settle for, making Benefit Cosmetics the perfect "go-to" makeup store in the airport. Benefit Cosmetics exhibits a flirty, vintage, pop-art type of vibe in their branding in existing stores and products, which we tried to exaggerate. This full store experience of Benefit Costmetics adds on to and enhances the current "Brow Bar" experiences in existing stores around the world.

Confidential Client Charlotte, North Carolina

Time frame: Worked on project May-June 2018 Project description: The portion of the core and shell building I worked on is a first floor workplace lobby. I was responsible for modeling several different design options in Revit for the client to review. I created several floor plan, RCP, and perspective views for the client to compare and contrast these different options. Each design option was focused on the background of the Carolinas, rooting history within the building. I was also responsible for doing image and precedent research for each of the design options to allow the client to envision the space more clearly. Software used: Revit and Enscape

Affordable Housing Intern Project Charlotte, North Carolina

Time frame: Entire internship duration; MayAugust 2018 Project description: On a team of 3 other interns, our goal was to research affordable housing and implement our findings. We collectively researched existing affordable housing as well as affordable housing needs in Mecklenburg County, Charlotte. The general summary of our results were that a diverse group of incomes, families, and views thrived most as a community. We were given a parcel of land in Charlotte that had been recently purchased by the county. Our goal was to plan a community that would satisfy both market rate renters as well as those in need of affordable housing. This project continued to grow after our internships, so we worked on planning the community rather than designing the buildings themselves. A few requirements were implemented such as a community resource center, a grocery store, the relocation of a library, and housing. The drivers for our design were community, empowerment, and wellness. Software used: InDesign, Photoshop, SketchUp, & Enscape

Furniture Design & Fabrication Time frame: Spring semester 2018 Project description: My furniture and millwork class challenged everyone to design and fabricate a furniture piece of our choosing. The idea for creating this chair originated from wanting to achieve a feeling of security, comfort, and power. From this form I achieved a design that possessed a strong feeling of power and royalty, which ties into the idea of a secure and comfortable design.

Plan view of chair

I also intended for this chair to provide privacy and focus, which is achieved by the solid back panels and the way it is angled on either side of the seat to direct visibility. The noise level when lounging in the chair becomes more muffled to provide focus for the person that occupies it. The bottom half of the chair is left empty for the use of storing whatever you have with you. Materials used: Sanded plywood, screws, nails, and wood glue

Sherwin Williams Student Design Competition Time frame: One month during spring semester 2019 Project description: This challenge prompted students to submit an entry of either commercial or residential design, in which I chose to explore commercial. A minimum of three Sherwin Williams colors had to be shown in a maximum of three exhibited renderings, using the software of our choice. The restaurant I designed, Queen City Fare, combines elegance with raw and industrial materiality. Merging existing architectural finishes with more modern and elegant materials creates an inspiring and exciting new urban dining experience. The Sherwin Williams colors brought into this space help achieve exactly that.
