Nike Fall Preview 2017 featured new lines coming out some of which include: FlyKnit Bra, Vapor Max, Air Max and Embargo Nike 1 collection. These collections and key product stories created an interactive experience that immersed the editors in the world of Nike.
+ New Balance TCS NYC marathon collection was designed to celebrate the partnership of NB + NYRR + TCS NYC Marathon. New Balance released their first ever marathon collection featuring many new products from the iconic maraton jacket to multiple new shoes.
For the holiday season Neiman Marcus wanted five vitrines each representing one of their fantasy gifts. We were given the location of a mall in Long Island, NY. From the beginning I worked hand in hand with the lead senior designer creating mood boards, to the SketchUp design decks, build / graphic mechanicals then to final load in.
Using an empty building space in Manhattan, NY, JCPenny Spring preview came to life. After deciding the initial theme of large florals and water color, the design was built out in SketchUp and then rendered to clearly represent the imagined space. I helped with layout, post editing, creating all the water color graphic effects applied to the front windows, top skylights and JCP poster and load in, organizing the florals and space.
A proposed renovation for the interior of The Bindery in NYC. They expanded their office and wanted to update the aesthetic and furniture of the space. I built out their whole office in SketchUp and then designed and rendered out the new space. This consisted of a new bar/library area as well as updating their kitchen book shelve and dividing walls.
Nike SB put on an event for Go Skate Boarding Day outside of McCarren Park in Brooklyn, NY. With art direction from Nike and Jack Greer I designed the donut, coffee cup and skate ramps / rail. I produced the mechanicals for all the items, as well as creating the graphic for the coffee cup.
An event sponsored by Belvedere Vodka at the Apollo Theater. I built out the whole theater in SketchUp and laid out the proposed bars, seating, high boys, ect. I rendered and edited all the scenes as well as all the mechanicals and construction for the Africa shaped vodka installation.
Renovating an existing London interior for an Olive Peoples boutique. The studio took material and furniture research on previous Oliver People stores to apply to the new image. We also took given floor plans and renderings to further develop our design. I modeled the existing building in Revit from scratch and developed a view that displays the store the best to be rendered. I also edited and completed the render post 3DS MAX, creating variety of variations on the form of the back lit wall, material usage and propping out the scene. Progress was halted due to relocation needs in London.
RIVIERA DRIVE
Residential remodeling of a house located on Riviera Drive in Laguna Beach, California. As a team we dimensioned out the space and took photos to remodel the house in Revit. Individually I took the exterior image of the original house and completely re-rendered it on Photoshop to represent the new desired look. Interior renderings were done by hand to show the new design on the interior.

row FACILITY The site for the row facility was placed on a trump wall to keep out the Ohio river when it floods. Given this initial circumstance I decided to make a lock system to allow the row boats to go through and back, instead of having the boats being carried up and over the trump wall, keeping minimal architecture on the flood side. Within the facility is indoor storage, training areas, a row tank and locker rooms. Outside there is also storage and an accessible green roof that in fills the structures brutal concrete slabs.

NATIONAL PARKS Due to remodeling of the Union Terminal in Cincinnati, the National Parks exhibit inside needed relocation. I choose a site right outside downtown Cincinnati next to a farmers market called Findlay Market. I analyzed the market and knew it would be an ideal location to draw people into this new pop-up. My idea for the exhibit was interpreting the National Parks in an art-based observational way. Within the space there are four main areas and activity booklets available to use through out the experience. At each area there is a viewing art installation, an art activity (in the booklet) and an area to understand each park’s different environment through hands on multi sensory displays. Design of tables and graphics were thought through also to complete the pop-up design.
Multi-housing Building upon an existing pizza place in down town Cincinnati, we were to create a multi housing structure for 20 residents. The development of my building started with analyzing site constraints and wanting the outdoors to be very much involved. The structure ended up being vastly open with units that were either two levels for one bedroom apartments or three levels for two bedroom apartments. The units themselves were based off of tiny houses and only needing the pure essentials. Developing a space that brings nature to downtown Cincinnati and through out the building, with green roofs and outdoor areas.

CLOUD The aggregation of 2D baroque wallpaper was reinvented to create this spatial installation exploring light, color, and whimsy. The cloud questions the notion of the wall as an architectural element.
section 001 Collaborating industrial design + architecture to create brand, furniture and space. Focusing on a studio life space furniture pieces were designed and then built out. I choose a coat rack that could be perceived as a large piece of furniture but using the wall for support allows the design to stay slim and bend off giving it an aesthetic of its own. Adding to the aesthetic, a grid was incorporated on the lower half with a ledge allowing bags, umbrellas, scarfs, etc to be placed and hung. All the furniture pieces came together and were displayed at ICFF New York 2017 in a both designed by me and 3 other architects, where we won Editors Choice Award for Best School Installation. insta:
