Vancil, Haden

Through my years as a design student, I have found that I am sometimes helpless to others because I don’t know how to help them in the situation that they are having trouble with. However, I dedicate time with them in order to process what they are having troubles with to see if I can resolve their problems with creativity and how they can go about their project in a way that reflects their personality. In addition, I encourage them to battle through the hard challenges within the situation they are having trouble with, giving them serenity in their self awareness. Being courtesy when helping people is the best way to devote them to do better and gives a feeling of comfort knowing they are in good hands and have a reliable relationship with someone that cares about their well being. In all having empathy, and social ability makes me a more reliable resource for people that need help, and it helps me realize that being considerate to others always pays off in the end.

Do you have any plans after this semester?

What type of designer would you like to be?

During the start of my career I want to do mainly residential projects, and eventually design yacht interiors.

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

I didn’t run into any major problems during the semester, I enjoyed this project and this semester.

What kind of place would you like to design next?

I would like to design high end residential places.

What do you think makes a good workplace?

To me a good workplace has to embody flexible experiences including spaces where employees can go and destress/ work in a different environment.

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

Evidence based design is how you develop your concepts for projects, by providing evidence for your project, your concept will always be strong.

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?

One thing I learned from this semester is to design with your clients in mind, and by doing this your process to a successful project is provided.

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

This studio will develop a stronger process for your projects, and will give a clear aspect of how important it is to design with your clients in mind. In addition, this studio is fun and should be enjoyed.
