ASK OFFICE RICHMOND, VIRGINIA
shape up!
DESIGN NARRATIVE. ASK is a nonprofit foundation that provides support services for children with cancer and their families. The support begins from the moment of diagnosis and extends through treatment and beyond. The office design is inspired by the brand icons of ASK.
The sketch or doodle-like form of the ASK icons makes them fun and not serious. The space is made to be fun through the element of form as well rather than just bright colors and patterns. Floors and wall partitions mimic freeform, hand drawn lines. Furniture and fixtures chosen have irregular or curvilinear shapes. All of these elements are combined with the intention of creating a welcoming but functional space for children.

INNOVATION HUB PORTLAND, OREGON
one with (Portland) nature
DESIGN NARRATIVE. An innovation lab strives to engage a wide range
of stakeholders in problem solving activities. It addresses problems too big for one organization to solve on its own, and is usually a partnership of uncommon partners. This innovation lab combines art and science with a focus on sustainability in Portland, Oregon.
Portland has lots of gorges, waterfalls, parks, and trails. My concept derives from the surrounding nature by using biophilic design. The circulation within the lab mimics a hiking path, allowing the user to go on a journey as they travel through the space. A variety of ceiling elements reflect the feeling of walking through a forest and looking up at a canopy of trees. The color scheme derives from colors found in nature and all materials used are sustainable.
