SPECTACLE, AN EYEWEAR STORE FRAMING SPACES FOR RETAIL DESIGN

lender steel tubes grow from points on the ground to frame specific moments for customers who browse the store. These moments occur in an open floor plan while an undulating ceiling grid creates a variation of flow throughout the space and serves as a lighting system for a combination of pendant and track lights. Product placement on sides of the store invites customers to circulate throughout the space and is broken up by seating and nodes where steel rodes ‘grow’ from the ground. An office and fabrication lab at the back is hidden by mirror panels, which extend one’s perception of store depth even further.

AFFOGATO COFFEEHOUSE A PLACE TO ENJOY COFFEE, ICE CREAM AND LIQUORS

ne scoop of vanilla ice cream, one shot of espresso, and mix them together to get the dessert Affogato. The end result that began from the concept of pairing unlike elements together is the Affogato Coffeehouse, which combines coffee, ice cream and liquors together in the context of a contemporary coffeehouse aesthetic. Mixes of public and private seating for individuals or groups stays true to the concept and ensures that patrons can find a comfy spot for themselves. A fully custom central bar can be seen from all parts of the interior and custom steps by the entrance serves as a waiting area for people on the go.

COTE & CIEL TRADE SHOW BOOTH EXHIBITION SPACE CELEBRATING UNIQUE BAG DESIGN

n order to mimic the client productsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; organic design language, conventional boundaries of floor, walls, and ceiling are blurred in order to design a space that showcase various CĂ´te&Ciel bags, characterized by their sculptural quality. Through various iterations, the form of the booth emerged and the final result is a minimalist space that engulfs customers, abstracting the scale and perception of opening a backpack. The design celebrates the form and integrity of the products themselves by placing them atop slender pedestals.

TINY HOUSE OF GLASS FENESTRATION INFORMED BY FRAMED VIEWS

ouse of Glass is an exploration into the world of tiny homes. Its main concept is how views are framed based on specific places where the theoretical client would spend time and their natural cone of vision in each space. In disguising the boundary between inside and outside, each view informs fenestration throughout the home, which has been designed to expand the inhabitantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s experience of space. The following semester another project was conducted in collaboration with Habitat for Humanity to design-build a tiny house prototype for low income families. It was auctioned off for $18,000.

ATA BUS SHELTER DESIGN-BUILD CAPTURING THE ESSENCE OF THE FLINT HILLS

he Flint Hills Area Transportation Agency, that services the cities of Manhattan and Junction City in Kansas, tasked the Kansas State University College of Architecture to design an affordable bus shelter. After one team completed the schematic design phase of the project which included a full scale prototype, design development was necessary to make the design robust for public use. Further mockups were prototyped to interrogate details and virtual reality technology was utilized in both design process and client presentations.

CLEAVED, A COFFEE TABLE SCULPTURE AS FURNITURE

leaved is a coffee table that has been designed with De Stijl ideals in mind. The furniture focuses on abstract forms and the resulting piece exists as a sculpture that provides additional functionality. The form was designed by using the idea of a cube and cleaving it three times across each axis. Each cut is done at a compound angle, which provides asymmetry and encourages the viewer to move around the piece in order to fully experience it.

ORIGAMI FORMWORK, CASTED FOAM INVESTIGATING UNCONVENTIONAL FABRICATION METHODS

he aim of the project was to re-establish current conventions of the casting process. Instead of common mold materials such as silicon, wood, metal, or sand, paper was utilized to design a system based on modular formwork. Many experiments were conducted in order to select an appropriate formwork material that could be parted from a finished cast made with expanding foam. Parchment paper was specifically selected due to properties of adhesion resistance. A series of casts with varying geometries were fabricated as a result.

COMPOSTING TOILETS IN THE JUNGLE VOLUNTEERING IN PAPUA NEW GUINEA

n 2013 I went on a gap year and volunteered at a hospital out in the coastal regions of Papua New Guinea. In the local villages structures are built on stilts due monthly flooding of the water table. Toilets are built apart from the home, as there is no functioning sewage treatment and sanitation issues arise when flooding occurs. I participated in the manufacturing and implementation of a pilot composting toilet added onto an existing home. It has been successful among the locals and I have since learned that thirty more toilets have been installed.
