Lowe, Tobie

Something that is very important to me is that I am loyal and attentive to my friends and family. As someone who holds kinship very close to their heart, these factors are integral to my character. It is also a goal for me to be witty and friendly to all that meet me. One thing that I would like to work on is being dependable and unwavering. These are factors that I look for in others, so I would hope that others see me as such. One quality that I look up to is perseverance. I have always struggled with not giving up, and this major allows me to work on that. I am also able to work on being intentional and decisive with the work that I complete

Do you have any plans after this semester?

After this semester, I will be going home to Oklahoma City to spend time with my family and friends. I will also be looking for internships in Fayetteville for this coming summer.

What type of designer would you like to be?

I hope to be a commercial designer. I also think that furniture design would be interesting and fun and would like to look into that.

Can you tell me about any problems you ran into in the studio or outside?

The biggest problem I faced was managing the workload and preventing myself from constantly getting overwhelmed.

What kind of place would you like to design next?

I would like to design something in hospitality. A hotel might be fun, similar to the Paderborn project. Also I would like to work on restaurant design.

What do you think makes a good workplace?

A good workplace involves a strong work community in which everyone can count on each other for support and inspiration.

Can you tell me what evidence-based design means to you?

Evidence based design means that the design of the project has not begun unless research about the site, community, and project brief has been completed.

Compared to previous semesters, the semester may be challenging in many ways, but you may be able to see your accomplishments. Reviewing your accomplishments, what did you learn from this studio?

The most valuable things I learned from this semester include many Revit skills, how to create construction documents, and which amenities are important for office design.

Would you like to share anything with future students of this studio?

I would say that it’s important to take small breaks from the studio when the work gets overwhelming and decompress in whichever way works best for you. You can do hard things!
