The design for NEXT’s Research and Development Hub is influenced by the Boston Innovation District’s “ work, live, play ” initiative. The motto serves as a basis for the idea that all three aspects of daily life can coexist in the same environment.
NEXTERS will foster innovation and exponentially increase their potential as the design of the space promotes community, supports flexible lifestyles, and provides stimulating environments.

the liddell
Lidd L el The l
new orleans, louisianaWhether it be through leisure, fantasy, isolation, or pleasure, The Liddell serves as a vessel for escapism; encapsulating moments of contentment, freezing them in time in a place far removed from reality. Drawing inspiration from the beloved Lewis Carroll series Alice’s Adventure in Wonderland, this boutique hotel reflects the peculiar storyline, rich character profiles, and imaginative settings as a driving force behind the design of the interior spaces. Wholly unique, The Liddell transports guests to a surrealistic place, both physically and in their minds.

Lidd L el The l
new orleans, louisianaGreeting all guests of the Liddell, the lobby is the intersection between outdoors, reality, and indoors, the rabbit hole into the fantastical spaces within a mixture of classical and traditional architectural details harken back to the time 1865, when the novel was written; juxtaposed with a look of sleek timelessness, reflecting the edgy peculiarity of the novel’s characters. This gathering point serves as a central place where the various spaces collide.
oysters and fi il
Influenced by the Mad Hatter’s characteristics, the in-house restaurant, 10/6, offers each guest the opportunity to get in touch with his eccentric inner self. Whimsical material patterns and expressive art overlay to serve as a foundation for serving culinary delicacies and cocktails. With opportunities for board games, informal conversation, and witty banter, 10/6 invites guests to the lively table of the Mad Hatter.
white gl ove tea room
Inspired by daydreaming, White Glove Tea Room offers guests a perfect place to be imaginative and come up with some of their best ideas. The whimsical combination of finishes and refreshing colors provides a playful, rejuvenating space perfect for an afternoon pick-me-up.
Bird &Bloom sa
lon & spa
Apropos to Alice's whimsical and curious character, The Bird & Bloom (Salon & Spa) promotes serene solitude by providing an outlet for users to escape to a world of their own. Shades of blue and elevated architectural details enhance elegance while also paying homage to Alice's simplified beauty.
the guestrooms Liddel The l at
In reflectance of the overall idea of imagination, the guest rooms at The Liddell are a place for guests to escape through imagination. In contrast to typical guest rooms, rich, dark tones and bold graphics transport guests into a world of fantasy. Much like Alice was transported down the rabbit hole to a world that was not her own, the guest rooms at The Liddell encourage a journey into imagination and inspiration.
Du c h es s
rooftop loun geIn reflection of the Queen of Hearts, the enigmatic monarch and antagonist in the novel, guests are encouraged to get in-touch with their guilty pleasures at Duchess Rooftop Lounge. Whether endulging for a moment or settling in for a time, the rooftop carves out a labyrinth of spaces, much like a hedge maze with its passages and destinations, in which guests lose track of time. Along the journey, more intimate nooks comfortably envelope guests, encouraging the slow passage of time
boggan assisted living
moonlight assisted living facility
moonlight
assisted living facility
Originally installed in 1894, the Moonlight Towers, in Austin, Texas, liberated citizens from the constraints of nighttime as well as created a newfound safety in their hometown. These towers were an early form of street lighting and the only ones still standing today are the 17 in Austin. Moonlight Assisted Living Facility serves as a beacon of safety, comfort, community, and rehabilitation for all who reside there. Light is a symbol of life, guidance, and warmth, this facility fosters these ideals through the emphasis of shape, form, and repetition of elements derived from the Moonlight Towers themselves.

REFLECTED CEILING PLAN
Residents and guests are greeted by a bright, open space with ample natural daylight.
Conceptual design elements of moon motifs can be seen in the reception desk’s wall feature, wallcovering, and lighting selections.
Borrowed light, as seen in the clerestory windows and skylights, contributes to an even distribution of light in the space.
Large communal space includes a TV lounge area, library, internet resources, and game room while incorporating daylight views.
Proximity of these spaces allows them to work together, but have separation to designate their functions.
A double-sided fireplace and curved ceiling detail work to ground the living space.
A variety of seating types cater to the needs of all the guests.
Clerestory windows allow even light distribution in the space
Accent wallpaper reminiscent of radiating beams, relating back to concept of moonlight
Large beams curve down into booth partitions to unify the space
resident corridor

skyline lamp
The “Skyline” portable lamp was influenced by the cityscapes of famous American metropolitan areas, such as New York City and Chicago. The tall buildings of differing shapes and sizes drove the design of this portable lamp. The “buildings” in the design are recreated with differing sizes of square wooden dowels. Aspects of line and space are utilized to create the skyline effect seen in America’s downtown areas.

furniture design
TOPO chair and the primary chair
TOPO
The design of TOPO is inspired by the organic shapes and movement seen in topography maps. The undulating rounded, stacked shapes resemble a parametric structure, which is a popular style of architecture that blends complexity and variety to reject homogenous utilitarianism. This unique chair is functional for users and is also constructed of sustainable materials.
THE PRIMARY CHAIR
The Primary Chair is inspired by the Dutch art movement from 1917-1930 known as “De Stijl.” The movement produced work from many different architects, designers, and artists, with the leader being Theo van Doesburg. Based on a strict geometry of horizontals and verticals, clean lines, right angles, and primary colors define the movement and the design of The Primary Chair.
