PUBLISHER’S NOTE
Dr. Jennifer had taught this Human Factors for Design course for more than a decade. It was passed on to me when I joined the University of Arkansas. It is my second time teaching Human Factors at the University of Arkansas. As a practitioner, I simply had to determine which design was best for the client, but as an educator, I had difficulty determining which direction to teach, since I was aware that not all students would become interior designers. As human factors have traditionally been closely related to psychology or anatomy, and industrial engineering and UX design have become dominant, it is impossible to cover everything in a semester for students who lack basic background knowledge. In response to the difficulty, I adopted a simple approach. “Return to the basics.” If interior designers and architects are responsible for designing spaces, what is the purpose of the design and what are people expecting from us? In what ways can human factors assist us in meeting these objectives and meeting these expectations? I ask my students these questions at the beginning and end of each lecture. Overall, I was interested in discussing the elements of interaction that must be tailored to
During my student days, I was not very satisfied with the first portfolio I developed by simply binding output files for the purpose of job preparation. I used to feel that it would have been better to prepare the portfolio in advance during the break, but every break is short and I needed time to rejuvenate my mind and body after completing so many tasks during the semester. Sometimes I am unable to recall what I have learned or what I have missed. I have occasionally been unable to locate my output files. Consequently, I found myself holding a portfolio that had no relation to my interests or passions. Hopefully, you will find this publication helpful in retrieving what you have learned as a designer and preserving what you have accomplished. Lastly, I would like to express my appreciation for everyone’s efforts last semester. Having the opportunity to combine the results of everyone’s efforts into a book made me very happy during the writing of this book. Jinoh Park, Publisher
a specific purpose and meet people’s expectations. The purpose of the series of discussions was to lay the groundwork for analyzing and understanding the interaction between behavioral and environmental factors. Although it takes time to achieve results, you will eventually see the quality of your performance reflect the effort you have put forth. By putting in as much effort as possible, you will be able to design faster, more accurately, more effectively, and more efficiently. As well as emphasizing the interaction of behavioral and environmental factors, the course required students to complete 12 exercises and a final project. In addition, students had to write a few essays. All of their outputs are included in this book except the essays.

I think time management and balancing work and school. Everything was good! I struggled with procrastination this semester. 3rd year was very demanding and I started to lose motivation towards the end. I would say that time management is always something I struggle with. Being a third year student - the work load is more time consuming which made this year more difficult. I didn’t find that reviewing people’s mistakes in our assignments 2/3 classes of the week proved to be very helpful. I mostly learned in this class how to create the exact same power point every week. I also felt as if putting the reference on the wrong slide and getting points off was very unhelpful towards teaching actual human facotrs in design, it was tedious. Nothing I had a hard time getting assignments done because they were assigned on Fridays and I try really hard to keep my work during the week. I did not get several turned in because they were minutes late and that stinks but I also understand a deadline. I wish we would be able to have gotten the assignments on Wednesdays. I struggled this year with balancing all aspects of life. I was mainly focused on finding an internship and working on my professional resume and portfolio creations while maintaining a good academic standing academically. As a result, I found myself being pushed to the limits. I am excited to be able to rest for a few weeks, and then be able to work in the real world as I head into my senior year of design education. Balancing intense studio demands with the rest of my classes while searching for an internship raised some stress levels. This semester was overall a challenge and teaching lesson for time management and organization skills. Having weekly assignments being assigned on Friday and due on Monday was a challenge for me. In the beginning of the class, I didn’t like how the assignments were explained, and assigned on Fridays, leaving us to do the assignment over the weekend. I feel as if my work could have been better if I had during the week to complete the assignment and not rush/dread doing it over the weekend. None, just the fact every class was demanding and hard to keep up with. Remembering the assignments. The workload this semester was so heavy that sometimes, I would not remember about Human Factors assignments till Sunday night. Navigating the complexities of ensuring my projects met various codes was definitely a challenge. It required meticulous research and attention to detail to ensure compliance while maintaining the integrity of my designs. Additionally, constructing axonometrics in Revit proved to be time-consuming and sometimes frustrating, as I worked to accurately translate my ideas into digital models. However, overcoming these obstacles has been immensely rewarding, as each hurdle has contributed to my growth as a designer and equipped me with valuable skills for future projects. Personally I had a hard time getting the assignments done because they were very time-consuming. I wish I gotten some grades back sooner so that I could then fix my next project and try to get the best possible grade, instead I was doing the assignment the same way because I thought it was right and then not getting a good grade on a handful of assignments when I feel that could’ve been prevented easily. Didn’t really have any problems that aren’t unusual for my life. I haven’t encountered too many issues in the class or outside this year, I think one thing I really need to work on is time management. Honestly, just trying to stay on top of everything. I faced a few health issues but managed my very best to keep up with all my classes and make the most of every learning opportunity from this Human Factors course. I think this semester just had a lot of very time consuming work, so it was really difficult for me. It was also hard juggling studio, human factors, and my honors methods of design inquiry class while working, keeping a social life, and keeping my mental health stable.

I had trouble with time management. This was my busiest semester and planning when to do assignments or how to break in parts was hard for me. Understanding exactly what each assignment was asking The biggest problem I encountered was having a balance between work and classes I had. Hand in hand with that was having time management and making sure there was enough allocated time for assignments and projects. I quickly had to plan to do the weekly assignments starting on Friday’s in order to balance studio and this class. None really :) It may have taken a while to get used to the layout of the assignments, but after that, there were no problems for me in the class. The problems I encountered during this class were not fully understanding the assignments, and struggling to complete the assignments in a timely manner on top of studio demands. Many peers and myself were left confused on how to complete the assignments, and not fully understanding the exact requirements. It seems as though the class did not fully understand the exact requirements of the assignments until grades were put in later in the semester. It is also very challenging to clearly hear and remember every single instruction shared during the lecture, and would be helpful to receive a simply formatted list of instructions and grading criteria in addition to lectures. The lecture slides that were shared on box were helpful to a certain extent, but still left many students without clear understandings and steps to completing the lengthy assignments. The grading format also left many students confused and unsure of how to calculate their grade to see where they stand. Overall, the assignments were helpful to expanding design knowledge and ideas. Time management and understanding instruction were my biggest obstacles. Planning out what I need to have completed by the end of the day and taking good notes helped these problems. There was a lot of confusion within studio this year of vague instruction. I did not encounter any problems in studio or outside of studio. This semester ended up being more challenging than the fall due to the odd-paced studio project and personal struggles. The beginning of the semester was spent doing a lot of busy work. Although it was fun, it gave us little time to develop and refine our projects. Inside and outside of the studio I often struggle with the work-life balance. Spending time with friends and family is very important to me and can often be challenging when trying to balance time with them and studio. I did not really encounter any problems in the studio or outside of studio! I had no problems with this course. I would say it was hard getting up for this class, but it was worth it. In studio, it has always been hard to know when to stop. As designers, we always think there is something to be improved. Knowing when to say it is enough is a skill I have had to learn throughout my time at the Fay Jones School. I guess a problem I encountered was waking up early for a 8am class, it was tough but I got through it! The course load in studio was not as involved this semester however all of the other courses I took as as well as my involvement in my sorority became more time consuming than past semesters. The only difficulty I encountered this semester was balancing school, sorority, personal, and social commitments. Lack of organization A lot of pacing & prioritizing my assignments based on when they where due and my amount of free time in the day. Architecture school has been challenging academically and mentally. There were times I wasn’t sure I was going to make it, but here we are. There are so many trials I went through, I don’t have the time to type them all out. I cried a lot and was broken down again and again but in the end, I am proud of what I have accomplished and the person I am today. Too much to say... but what I can say is that I have survived many late nights, stressful deadlines, and personal loss. Problems, stress, and challenges will always find you but it is important that you hold firm to you boundaries and morals - a lesson I have learned more than once this past semester.

I learned a lot about the human scale as well as the scale of architecture. I also learned how spaces make people feel. I learned how to design in ways that are specific to certain individuals. Being able to see how each environment needed to think about different and specific elements was good to be educated. I am definitely a lot more focused on every single element that goes into the space and how a human can or would want to interact with it. This class informed me about the need for human based evidence in design. I learned that good design is backed with lots of research and is always centered around the human experience. I learned that the assignments are very tedious and whether or not you listen in class it does not reflect in your assignment grades. As those grades were more based on following Jinohs powerpoint example word for word powerpoint and not what we discussed in the lectures. When we were going through the lectures though I found them to be very informative and helpful for studio as well as for my internship. I think Jinoh is very intelligent and I have a lot to learn from him. human factors and experiences while designing I learned a lot about how a person feels inside of a space and what is making them feel that way. The influence of design decisions, such as scale, drastically affects a space. Also, how every decision in design ultimately affects a person. I learned how the sequence of how people move through the space effects the way they feel in the space. I learned about how users interact with different sectors of design, by looking at precedents of projects. Through this I gained a greater appreciation for all sectors of design, and how to better design for the users of the space. There is a large number of factors that influence the design decisions we make and it’s crucial we recognize them early on. The diverse range of human factors that are applicable to a space was very interesting to me and I am looking forward to implementing more of them into my future projects. I learned just how important the human body is to every design. Before this class I did not consider the scale and sizing of the human body movements to such detail as I do now. I enjoyed learning about new spaces and how each type of space interacts with guests. I learned a lot in this class in how a interior space can do so much aesthetically, but accessible to everyone using a thoughtful process in design. I learned how to look at design from a more human perspective than a technical one. This class provided me with invaluable insights into the multifaceted world of architecture. Through engaging documentaries, I gained a deeper understanding of how architectural works impact local communities and the importance of considering their perspectives and criticisms. Exploring the evolving nature of museums, particularly in the digital age, was eye-opening, highlighting the significance of embracing technology and social media to enhance cultural experiences. Overall, I developed a greater appreciation for the interconnectedness of architecture, society, and technology, equipping me with a more holistic understanding of the field and its broader implications. This class was really helpful in teaching me what certain types of building need and are willing to accommodate. I learned that looking at the human factors within design is not only important but vital, to succeed as a designer. Many of these factors are overlooked. I feel like I learned a lot about the human body within a space and how we move through it. I have talked about this class in every interview I’ve done. SO much. How environmental factors interact with human factors. I have learned to think though how the built environment effects human behavior; how the built environment can both aid and make things more difficult for people in a space. I have also learned how the effectiveness of design can be studies and mea-

sured, and how design impacts people’s life and behaviors. I learned many things about human and environmental factors that I did not know before. I also learned that it is very important to think about these things before actually going through with the design process. I learned how to analyze spaces and understand the layout. different ways humans interact with the built environment Human and environmental factors are a huge consideration that is necessary when designing any type of space. This class taught me how to understand what design aspects apply to human and environmental factors. Different ways to comprehend spaces depending on the programmatic intentions and what we as humans need. Good design comes from applying knowledge of the human needs and emotional responses. It is not neccesraily hard, just takes much thought and intention behind it. I learned how to look at a space from a different lense, and to consider the human quality of a space more. This class showed me different strategies in the design world, and how different design sectors respond to human needs. I learned that design should focus on the user experience more, in subtle ways and bold. Thinking about the human dimension when designing built spaces is important in its outcome. Being thorough and concise at the same time is also important in doing studio work and class assignments. I learned how movement through space affects us as humans and how we perceive space. I learned the relevance of sequence and how crucial this process is when reflecting on the success on your design. I learned how the human body has a significant impact on what we design, and that the interior space needs to relate to the occupants it is designed for. I learned what makes different types of spaces successful for human well-being. Studying countless projects for each assignment also allowed me to expand my knowledge of design elements that make sequences interesting. From this class, I learned the importance of the human factors that is applied in everyday life. What I learned from this class is to pay more attention to the design details and the codes that are being placed into the design projects. What I also learned is that there are many buildings that fit under one category, which is very interesting. I learned how a space is designed based on the way humans interact within the space and how the space works as whole with the environment. From human factors, I learned how to truly think about space in a new way. Before this class, it was a lot of thinking in just floor plan or section or 3D. After taking this class, I will think about the user experience through design elements, ADA factors, environmental factors, and the needs of the people. I will think about the human’s sequence through the space and how spaces I design can serve them. I learned that a design can affect humans and how they respond to the built environment. It is our job, as designers, to consider everything and look at the design through the lens of non-designers. I was reminded how influential the human body and scale is on everything we do as designers. I learned how to better accommodate human scale into designs and how to keep that as a focus in every design. The importance of human impact in spaces How to structurally set time for the assignments and how to accommodate for human factors/ WELL and LEED certification in future projects. I learned how to examine the built environment and identify ways that it could be improved for the human experience. And also that I am not a morning person. I learned how to properly investigate and question the built environment and work towards integrating human factors in the design world in order to help create more accessible and desirable spaces for everyone. Also... I am not a morning person :|

Honestly, when the term is over, the final project is something really impressive and unique to show at an interview. I learned a lot from this course. I would highly suggest applying this information and thinking about it during your studio course so you can maximise the benefits that come from the information shared. I would advise students to try and work on their assignments in small amounts throughout the work so it is less overwhelming. Get your work done and remember to take time for yourself. Go to class and be on time. No Do not wait until Monday at 6 am like I did because it is not enough time. Ask for assignments to be critiqued so you can better them. Spend time researching a number of precedents, to find the best examples of how human factors can be applied. There are a lot of good and poor examples out there and spend time really understanding what’s working and what’s not. Design is about learning and looking back into history and making it better! Take each assignment as an opportunity to explore new and interesting spaces that can inspire your own work! I encourage everyone to treat this class as a learning and teaching moment. Take each lesson serious and don’t wait until the last minute to complete it. Do not be afraid to ask questions and reach out to the TA’s if you are confused. No matter how hard it is, just come to class, and try to get the assignments done early so you’re not stressed out on Sundays. Make sure to attend every class Getting the assignments done early in the week will save you a lot of headaches. I’d suggest initiating your projects at the start of the week, ideally on Monday. Juggling a hefty course load can make it challenging to set aside focused time during weekends for a single assignment. By commencing work earlier in the week, I discovered a more manageable rhythm that allowed me to allocate ample time to each task, fostering the production of higher-quality work without the pressure of last-minute rushes. This approach not only enhances the quality of your output but also contributes to a more balanced and sustainable workflow throughout the semester, ensuring you maintain both productivity and well-being. It will all be okay! and to reach out to Jinoh if you need any help or if anything is cleared up. Allow yourself plenty of time to complete Jinoh’s assignments Take this class seriously and pay attention during class this is an important one. Do your homework!! Pay attention in class. Jinoh puts a lot of effort into each lecture and you can learn so much from him! Start your assignments as early as possible. Good luck! Showing up to class is 30% of the grade, so it is really important. I wish I had showed up more! Break up the assignment in two days so it’s not too much to do in one sitting. The hardest part was finding an example that worked. Do the homework before it’s due Time management is important in being successful in this class, make sure enough time is allocated to complete these assignments and in the correct way. These assignments are also important for understanding a key part of what we do which is designing for people and using human and environmental factors in that design. Take the assignments as a learning opportunity because it will only help you be more successful in the design world. Really try to understand the weekly assignments FULLY at the start. I had about five assignments that had one part I continuously misinterpreted and I didn’t know until they all were graded

at the same time. So, try and reach out to make sure everything is correct so you don’t miss a small fraction of the assignment even though it was a simple fix. There are several steps to these assignments and they are not difficult when you establish a template that is correct and understandable to yourself. Good information can be gleaned if you pay attention and explore more topics yourself! Make sure your sources for the assignments are in Chicago or APA style instead of URL!! That saves you points! I would encourage all the students to fully understand the instructions before completing any assignments, and ask for a clear outline of the grading criteria and requirements for annotations, drawings, and writings. Manage time efficiently and always ask questions when you are unclear. Always have work on time and ready every day at the beginning of class. Take good notes during lectures that you can understand when you go back to read them. Try not to procrastinate in studio and for other class assignments. I would say to just do the weekly assignments and every week and don’t wait until last minute. Have fun with your assignments, and make sure to invest a decent amount of time in them, as they reflect your understanding of human factors. Start your assignments early and try not to miss any, as it will make the final project more difficult. Also, look at the assignments as opportunities to expand your design knowledge, as you expose yourself to numerous projects. Find projects that you are interested in as it makes the process more enjoyable. Pay close attention to assignment instructions and ask questions if you are confused. I would like to share with future students that your hard work means something and that to keep pushing through. Don’t wait till the last minute to do the assignments, give yourself at least a couple of days before!! This class was awesome and I learned so much! Thank you Professor Jinoh! I hope you actually try and understand each topic because it is actually somewhat interesting in some ways. For future students going into the second semester of the third year, find your internship early, do your assignments for human factors on Saturday mornings (do not wait until Sunday evening), and remember this is your last studio with all your buddies in one place. Take it all in before you find yourself in fourth year. Attend class and please please please pay attention!! Jinoh mentions important things in class that are not on the slides. I understand studio can be heavy and you might be tempted to work on studio during his class, but that is rude! Show some manners and pay attention. I guarantee you will pass with an A if you pay attention and show up to class. Having designated “work” times and places is really helpful for time management and task organization. Its also important to make your own personal health a priority in your schedule. This can look like setting designated times or days for working out, being with friends/ family, taking care of personal stuff etc. This approach helps create a more rigid routine that you can stick to every day and that will make you feel so much more productive and accomplished at the end of the day! Do your assignments before Sunday, you might think the assignments don’t take long but I would say it took about 4 - 6 hrs. on average Don’t be afraid to ask for help, don’t feel bad for working at a slower pace than your peers, just do the best you can do, and remember that you do not have to prove your worth. Semesters go by fast and before you know it you’ll be graduated. Make the best of where you are now and do the best work you can so you can look back and be proud of what you have produced. Leave this school feeling like you succeeded in everything you set out to do - it will be painful but its worth it.

Acree, Lauren Elizabeth
Finding joy and peace in everyday activities is important to one’s overall well-being. I think finding humor in situations leads to a more uplifting day and a more positive life. Apart from this, being your authentic self is vital to leading an honest life and creating relationships that are filled with compassion and generosity. I believe that nothing in life should ever be taken too seriously to maintain a willful attitude and empathetic point of view. By not taking things too seriously you find determination and acceptance within yourself. This is important so you can maintain persistence and not get burnt out. 12

Anderson, Elizabeth Grace
For my personal brand, I want everything I create to be meaningful and smart. The spaces should have an openness to them and allow people to feel calm. In order for everything to mesh together well, it must also be organized. Creating a strong design relates back to caring about your clients, which is very important. A great design has a certain fluidity to it but is also dependable so that it can serve its purpose for each person. 20

Anderson, Hannah Nichole
Values that are important to me as a designer include empathy and self determination. It is important to remain thoughtful and considerate when designing for others because the challenge is to design for your client, not just yourself. It is also Important to have self determination because nobody else will drive your passion for this difficult degree of work, if you are not pushing yourself. I also believe in being courageous and bold when it comes to design choices. Thinking outside the box and designing with a sense of joy or whimsy is what makes you an outstanding interior architect from the rest. When it comes to working with people and collaboration, I always try to be flexible and have a sense of balance or medium within the group that I am working with. Staying calm during conflict and seeing both sides helps immensely when working with others. It is also my responsibility as a designer to consider sustainability and the surrounding environment as well as just the client’s wants/needs. 28

My friends and family are the most important part of my life. I am selective with who I let close to me. My closest friends and I are thoughtful and honest with each other. We respect each others boundaries and decisions. I am an empath, so understanding others feelings comes naturally to me. My parents are generous and help me with whatever I need. I love my friends and family because they help me be confident in who I am and they listen. I like to collaborate with people when it comes to projects because it’s fun and work gets done more efficiently. 34

Banks, Ann-Wesley W
When I observe myself and my own life, I think my priorities shine through pretty clearly. I value relationships and a steady, consistent life where things revolve around routine and people that pour into me mentally and emotionally. I strive to find joy in all aspects of my life, whether things are going swimmingly or if my life seems to be falling apart. Being trustworthy, or having faith, in God and the people around me is something that helps my life stay consistent as well. I also strive to be aware of my surroundings by being conscious of other peoples’ feelings, the tasks I need to complete, and the values I’m living for. Appreciation and gratitude for everything in my life is one of the most important things to me. Nothing I have is through my own accord or effort, so to not express gratitude would be taking things for granted and lead to self-righteousness and thinking I deserve things. Because a lot of things are earned, and not given, perseverance is a key trait to have and maintain in order to get anything done. Life inevitably gets hard, but being able to overcome obstacles and keep working hard can help things work out and be rewarding. Respect is earned where respect is given, so I try to give and get respect from everyone I encounter. 40

Bowers, Alexandra Victoria
Kindness in my life comes to me when I am truthful to others and affectionate at all times. Being a reliable person comes withholding lots of responsibility and being answerable to others at all times but standing my ground. This is also true when it comes to being a designer and taking credibility for my own design work, but not copying others. Being an upcoming designer in the world today, my imagination and passion roots from the world around me and what I see in my everyday life. When practicing in studio, I make sure to maintain a composure and work balance with life so that I can be flexible with my work and outside activities. 54

Consistency has allowed me to create a schedule that promotes productivity, which I have learnt to be extremely effective while going through college. Being considerate of others has allowed me to create loyal and true friendships. Living with three other girls has taught me the importance of being selfless , and caring for one another. College has allowed me to understand the difference between genuine and convenient friendships. Within this interior design major, I have been taught how to allow my creative side to be fully expressed. 74

In my life, I feel as though I am dedicated to the things I do. I am often most determined to do things when social aspects are involved. Partnerships are very important to me, and I would consider myself to be a trustworthy friend. Genuine relationships mean more to me than anything I would say. The friendships I maintain are always selfless. Things don’t always work out don’t get me wrong, but being consistent is key in any relationship. I always have great admiration for my mom as she is always accepting of people whom she maintains relationships with. I learned from her that caring or not caring for each other in a relationship can make or break it. 88

Having empathyallows me to grow closer to others. Beingselfless allows me to think about others before myself. Lastly, being generous and kind creates someone whom people are drawn to. 102

Cole, Carlee P
To be outstandingandlikable, other steps must be accomplished first. Caring for others, as well as yourself contributes to your ultimate goals. Being concerned, as well as sensitive and attentiveare important attributes to begin with, towards yourself and the ones around you. Reflectingon your past, even so far as the previous day, helps make your next steps as thoughtfulas possible. This reflection helps to learn from your previous choices and to make better ones in the present, as well as the future. So, think before you speak and act. This makes lovingyourself and those around you simple and carefree. Also, having spontaneity is important, however keeping your stability and routine is relevant. Finally, being committedto yourself, others and your work is at a high level of importance, only next to being kind, which is most important of all. Commitment can encompass many aspects of your life. Commitment to all aspects create a well-rounded character, rather than focusing on one aspect of your life, for example, work. This creates an unhealthy balance, which then affects your health and relationships with loved ones. 110

Crow, Amanda
Throughout my life, I have shown bravery and individualism, specifically when I decided to come to Arkansas from Texas for my freshman year with no one from my high school. I consider myself to be a strong and dependable friend to my peers, always being there when they need me. Through my years of college, and my major change into the design program, I have learned to have integrity, determination, and restraint. My parents always taught me to live an altruistic lifestyle through volunteering and giving back to my society. No matter how hard life gets I will always admire the life of design. I would not be where I am without the continuous affection and support of my friends, family, peers, and professors. 118

Everett, Olivia M
One trait that I admire most and strive for is modesty, as I believe someone who is more quiet and humble about their successes and beauty shows a higher level of character than that of a boastful person. Because of this, I tend to be more thoughtfulof others. Part of the reason that I do not seek attention is that I lack confidence and am not as courageousas I wish to be. I dislike conflict and, although many of us come from different beliefs and backgrounds, I seek harmoniousrelationships and friendships.I desire sincerityin myself and others, as it is impossible to develop true trust and understanding in relationships without it. This has required me to learn patienceand gentlenessin listening to things that are sometimes difficult to hear. My desire for these kinds of relationships has caused an eagerness to learn and grow in knowledgeof things I am interested in, as well as things I am not because it allows me to better understand the world and people around me. Above all else, I strive for faithfulnessto what is important to me, including family, friends, my interests and pursuits, religion, and my beliefs. 142

Ferguson, Julianna S
Strong design can be distinguished into categoriesincludingmercy,honor, andgenerosity. The designerneeds to lovetheir work yet be tasteful about their achievements. This modestyremains whenever a designer teaches upcoming designers, being mercifuland understanding throughout the project. A designer should be courageousin their design and step outside their comfort zone. They should still honorthe program however, making only justdecisions. They should remain faithfulto their client and be creativeto meet their needs. In this way, a designer must be flexiblewhen collaboratingwith their clients. In addition, they should be generousin their explanation of their intentions and within their work. 150

Finkelstein, Devyn Ann
My main goal is to surround myself with creative and passionate people in order tocreate a healthy and driven environment around me. It is important to put myself in a position in which I can thrive among my peers. Keeping open and honest conversation with my peers facilitates an amount of trust and respect amongst us. With thoughtful input and some patience, the work that I can create makes me feel accomplished and proud. I feel as though it is important to continue to create work that drives me to be better everyday and that my work, while exceptional in my eyes, is never done. Speaking humbly about work and patiently explaining things that people have questions on is what makes review so beneficial in the real world. 158

Garcia, Itzel
I am an individual who is organized, disciplined, and a perfectionist. When I am not happy with a result, I will redo it until I am content. Also, I have empathy towards everyone I come across. It’s a positive because I can read people’s energy and give advice that will benefit them. It can be a negative because being an empath takes a lot of energy. On the other hand, I am a competitive person. I love to weight lift and I love to push myself to beat my personal record. To beat my personal record, I have to be disciplined and concentrate on my form. Having a hobby that helps me when I am stressed allows me to get rid of tension in my body. Aside from having a healthy physical life, I am truly grateful for the friendships that I have. My friends are authentic, mature, and have respect towards others. An important aspect I look in my relationships is trust. Without trust, friendship or relationships will not last. Lastly, in the near future I would like to accumulate wealth that will allow my future kids to go to college without having to worry about money. I want to give my kids the opportunities that I never got to experience. 178

Gobbi, Drew Michelle
My name is Drew Gobbi. I am 20 years old and a full-time student. As a emerge further into society as an adult, there are several things I have learned about the importance of my own identity. Something that has helped me establish positive friendships is being consistently generous and reliable towards others. This has helped build trust and a strong sense of empathy. Also, being very thoughtful about how I treat myself and others is something I have grown to appreciate, as it has benefited my confidence greatly. Through this grown confidence, I now possess a lot of self-determination to maintain my character and push myself further in all directions of success. This is one of the characteristics that helps me have persistent work-ethic, expressive creativity, and devotion towards my passion of interior design. 186

Hall, Daria
During my life I was lucky enough to have some great people around. Being raised in the Post-Soviet Union Country meant hard work, excellence and responsibility was something that people around expected from you. I was born to the family of a teacher and a construction worker. My mom’s dedication, eagerness to learn and responsibility have been in front of my eyes since very early age. I also learnt hard way, during my parent’s divorce, that the full trust is risky, and that independence is very important. With my mom experiencing a lot of pain from my dad’s betrayal, I learnt the value of kindness and thoughtfulness, I also learnt how easy it is to break the trust. Later in my life I spent 6 years working at the Steel Sales Company, where I received many organizational skills, learnt how to work in a team and collaborate. Most of my life I spent doing somewhat creative things, but I truly discovered my passion in being creative when I started this program.Russian culture taught me a lot of respect to other people, older people, more educated people. But only when I moved to the U.S. I saw how much more people take to a consideration other’s needs, embrace thoughtfulness and celebrate differences. 194

I truly believe that there is a power in finding your purpose through each day. By setting your day up and nding your day with being intentional. When I create a sense of serenity in my morning and evening routines and spend time focusing on me, it helps me lead the day with ambition and determination for the things in my life related to work and my friends/ family. Something that I really love is neuroscience, staying educated on how humans and the world works can bring empathy and respect towards others and myself. I also love to create, I am imaginative, and my mind is constantly creating imagery, I love being able to take what is in my mind and be able to create it which I find through being able to design. 222

Jacobus, Christopher Corbin
Each day I strive to be a selfless and understanding person, which requires me to be able to adapt to handle any situation that is presented to me. My days are very structured to complete the work that is required. This takes sacrifice, dedication, and endurance. When creating workI often think about ways to do something unique, and truthful which requires bravery. 234

Kersey, Sarah Nicole
Regardless of the task, I have always been a very driven and task-oriented person. I am attentive and diligent when it comes to details and will always put in the extra work to make sure everything is done to the best it can be. Although I tend to be independent and am actively pursuing leadership positions, I often prefer working in collaboration with others for projects as I think it provides great intellect, ideas, and efficiency. Because I am someone who will go the extra mile to make sure my work is perfect and love diving into the details of something, I have often been relied on to organize, execute, and teach other people. Teaching is true passion of mine that I have found makes me more humble, empathetic, and patient. In a teaching role I always aim to be very honest and creative as I know that every person learns differently –you just have togive them a chance. This sense of compassion also occurs in my design roles as I am always very intentional with my designs and heavily consider human experience. I truly strive to be someone who istrustworthy and noble as a designer, friend, daughter, and mentor. Although there are days where I am overwhelmed, anxious, and frustrated. I always try to be resilient and push through as I know the people in my life depend on me, love me, and deserve the best version of me when I can be fully focused and attentive. 262

Krueger, Jessica M
I feel as though it is important to find friendships that share similar values as myself. I choose to surround myself with people who are uplifting and empowering. This creates room in friendships for stability and trust, as well as growth. However, finding these friendships is not always easy. It takes time and effort to create genuine, intentional friendships that have a deeper meaning and strong connection. In the past, I have been burned by friendships that aren’t genuine, where there is a lack a trust and an abundance of miscommunication. For this reason, I am committed to finding friends who are selfless and genuinely care about other people. I find comfort in people who are inclusive and recognize feelings and needs of others. On another note, I do believe it is important to have multiple different types of friends. This includes surface level friends as well as friends with more substance behind the bond. Surface level friends are there when you need entertainment and originality. Friendships with more substance are there to provide strength and stability in your life. However, whatever type of friend a person may be, they should always be trustworthy and genuine. 270

This year my goal is to obtain and lifestyle surrounded by wellness and find a healthy balance between every aspect of life. I want to be more present and attentive to the thing around me, while beginning to explore the things I do and becoming more free with my choices. Academically, I want to grow stronger and become more knowledgable on the material that I will be learning. This comes with being much more attentive, and opening myself up to be vulnerable to sharing and being more open to learning anything that comes my way. Learning new things and being able to explore new ways to obtain information and grow is something that i am looking forward to this year. 278

Lallier, Katherine Loring
Throughout the college experience, I have learned more about what I value as a person and in the other people around me. The career I’m aiming for through my major has taught me important qualities, such as being imaginativethrough the creative process and to always have goals that I am aiming to achieve. College overall has taught me how to balance the number of things going on in my life and having organizationin every aspect. I have also realized how important the relationships in my life are, especially during this time in my life. I’ve learned that having kind, caring, and trustworthyfriends and family is one of the most important aspects of my life. These people truly are my support system and make me able to get through this college experience and the specific aspects I am passionateabout. Some qualities I have learned that are important for me to portray as a person are being considerateand sympathetictowards what others are going through because I understand that you never really know what a person could be going through. Therefore, my college experience, my relationships, and my growth as a person have allowed me to develop what qualities I truly value in my life. 282

I try to keep my composure when things do not go how I planned, and when I need help I try to ask for assistance. Being considerate and understanding is very important to me and I try to remember to exhibit those qualities. I like to have many acquaintances and hope that the relationships are faithful and truthful. In my opinion, it is important to have talented friends who help inspire your imagination and help you stay diligent. 290

Martin, Campbell L
In school I have always been very driven and always want my work to be the best it can be. Many people have pointed out that I can be a “perfectionist” with my work, which used to be more of a curse than a blessing. I have had to learn to not be too hard on myself and refrain from perfecting every little sketch or model I complete. Over time I have learned how to create quality work that I am proud of and shows my dedication I have to my work. Through school I have developed greater trust in others and their capabilities. I always try to be put in my best work, whether I am working individually or in collaboration with others. I always try to be a person that people would enjoy working with or just being around. Both in and out of school I am always conscious of those around me try to treat everyone with kindness. I feel that it is always important to be intentional with people and in your work to be successful. 304

My goal not only as a designer but also as a person is to carry myself with purpose and respect. In order tobe admired, I need to be considerate so that others know they are heard. My creativity and passion for design has driven me to devote my time completely to school right now. My goal is to take time to appreciate the details and time that went into creating something, as well as being flexible with my normal ideas so that I can be open to explore. I believe in creating things that are for the people, so reliability and collaboration are important when designing. 318

Mendoza Jr, Eugenio
Growing up in a Latino household as the oldest of four siblings my parents taught me about manner and how far God will take you if you practice GENEROSITY. Our household was not filled with expensive or opulence, rather, a different, greater type of wealth- an ABUNDANCE of LOVE. My value as a human was built up thought the acts of my parents and their way of raising my siblings and me. A GENUINE trait of mine that I am rather proud of having is my EMPATHY, and openness to feel for others deeply and understandingly. Additionally, growing up I had to take up responsibilities that most children didn’t experience until their adulthood. I would take care and cook for my siblings while being a child myself-I believe this is where my PATIENCE towards people and especially children derives from these experiences. Coming from a home where money was scarce, my siblings and Is IMAGINATION served us well as our form of entertainment. With this comes large and risky dreams, now goals, that require COURAGE and my CONVICTION to achieve them in life. Not only for the sake of myself, and desire to become INFLUENTIAL; but for all the sacrifices my parents have committed. 326

Mulloy, Katie G
I have always had a strong sense of empathy for others when it comes to losses or failures that people close to me go through, I tend to hurt with them out of sincerity. The most important aspect of my being is my faith in God, therefore the love I experience through Christ affects my life in every way. Faithfulness is shown through my actions because of this which allows me to remain diligent in everything I do. My education and personal relationships are responsibilities I hold close to succeed. I keep my surroundings clean everywhere I go to keep my sense of serenity which can positively impact my work and relationships. I sacrifice a lot of time to focus on my education for my future self. My self-determination will allow me to grow in ways I can’t imagine yet. The successes will help me become generous, and the failures can humble me where I need work. 342

Ofria, Adrienne Sheffield
My name is Adrienne Ofria. If my friends were to describe me in one word, I think they would say I am dependableor enthusiastic. During my college career in the Fay Jones School, I have been able to show many of my other characteristics in usefulways like creating uniquedesigns and being politeand respectful to my peers and authority figures. Throughout studio I have developed many friendshipsand become inspiredby those people and the people around me. I love how thoughtfulmy classmates are and how supportive, helpful, and understandingthey are because we are all working hard together. Studio work has made me a bit of a perfectionist. Sometimes I get caught up in the details or with time that I forget how to adapt when plans or things change, so a goal of mine this semester is to be easier going. 350

Orosz, Anna I
As a person, I cherish every companion that I have and strive to make sure we are role-models to each other. When your role-models to your companion you can have a healthy and balanced relationship with each other and you work towards understanding each other more and more. Almost like bonding. Sometimes, thinking I’m the most clever person in the world has gotten me into huge issues and trouble with my friends and peers so I try now as an adult to grow as an individual and become selfless. As a person, enthusiasm is something that I hold very close to my heart a value because if you’re enthusiastic about a situation, class, career, etc. it can make you a reliable person and you’re more likely to practice adaptability as a young adult in situations you’ve never been. Having esteem in your friendships and life in general can take you very far in your path of growing, I have practiced tolerance and became independent since I was 17 years old which helped me come very far in my life. 356

Penney, Ella Grace
Something very important to me is good comaraderie. I believe any situation can be made better if you surround yourself with the right people. It improves my personal ability to be mindful of the authentic, selfless love surrounding me. I keep my company in consideration wherever I might be, because being optimistic and resilient is a lot easier with company. I use my vivid imagination to fuel my dreams and aspirations, while still following a routine to ensure success. I try to bring humor into my life because I believe people can get bogged down in the seriousness of it all. In addition to this, I pride myself in having a good, positive outlook on the life I have been given, staying mindful of life’s simple pleasures. 364

Ross, Peyton Jade
I think understanding someone day to day life is just being aware that sometimes people are having a bad day and all you need to do is be caring toward them. I want to show giving to people who are close to me and show them that I care about them and is willing to give myself vulnerable sides of me. To be considerate towards everyone is to be able to be helpful and treat them with kindness. I would like to make plans and follow through with them and be someone that others know they can depend on. The state of the world right now is declining and everyone’s quality of life could be improved if we were all more sustainable in our day-to-day life. I would describe myself as hard working because I’m a full-time student, while also working full-time and trying to maintain personal relationships. 420

Treating others with respect and kindness creates a positive and welcoming environment for everyone. Promoting tolerance and understanding different perspectives is key to building a community where individuals can believe in a shared sense of harmony, alongside mutual respect and kindness. Dependability and reliability further strengthen the community fabric, ensuring that individuals can trust one another, fostering an environment built on shared values of respect, kindness, tolerance, and belief. In such a supportive community, the cultivation of understanding and encouragement for creativity becomes essential, allowing individuals to express themselves freely and fostering an atmosphere where diverse ideas are valued alongside dependability, reliability, respect, kindness, tolerance, and belief. An organized environment not only promotes efficiency but also serves as a conducive space for nurturing creativity, where innovative ideas can seamlessly blend with dependable structures, reinforcing the values of respect, kindness, tolerance, belief, understanding, dependability, and reliability. 446

I feel that I have a newfound ambition after the new year. I’m striving to be more consistent with my work-life balance while still working diligently to achieve my goals. I consider myself to be a responsible person, but its something that can always be improved in different ways. I’m also working to be more honest in my friendships. While I always want to live in a harmonious environment in the most ideal situation, lately me being scared to upset someone has caused myself more harm so for me its more important to be honest right now. 462

Spillman, Mikayla Breanne
I aim to be a person that is loving and considerate, not only to myself, but for those around me. I want to be a joyful person, who finds happiness in all circumstances, as well as a hopeful person, who believes that the best things will come on their own timing. I can emulate those traits best by remaining organized and always striving for individuality. I am the best version of myself when I can remind myself to stay humble and reliable in my relationships with other people. I hope that I can be considered a strong person who is not afraid to be vulnerable about my feelings and experiences. 482

I value honesty and try to only share my most true self with people. I am working on being confident in myself and the path that I’m on at this moment and surrounding myself with things and people that I love. I belief that people’s individuality is their most important quality. When we are our most authentic selves the world becomes a much more exciting and unique place. Valuing yourself, the people around you, and everyday things that make you happy are essential in living a happy life. I believe that we should be accepting of one another’s uniqueness, and that flexibility is a key part in that. Intentional conversations and actions are essential in working together to effectively problem solve. 490

Stratman, Zoe Savannah
The most important thing to me in life is love. Love is the passions we hold in life both big and small, and the people we truly care for. Love is more than just a feeling, but a tangible action and a choice, a choice I strive to choose every single day. I aim to live my life purposefully, being intentional through everything I do. I work to have a thankful and grateful mindset for the things, people and opportunities I have, to stay in the moment given and to be content in the season of life I am in. I enjoy having an open mind to other ideas and diving deeper into supporting facts and reason to gain wisdom and learn more about why things are the way they are. I cherish the friendships and relationships I carry and appreciate the level of honesty, love and support received within them. I am filled with so much empathy towards others and seek to live a life filled with giving. Forgiveness and grace for those around me and within myself allow bring a more freeing and peaceful life. Though I strive to work hard and do well in the things I do, I want to always keep a humble intent putting others before myself. I love love, the passions of this life, and others because of the faithful God I serve, Jesus. I strive to live this way and love others just as Jesus loves. 498

ABSTRACT The authority of religion is expressed through the use of an elevated level and location. The Meditation Chapel is in an elevated position within nature for a clear view of the sea. The 2 sets of stairs and a roof top space continuously move the user upward, in reference to God being the higher power elevated above. The authority of religion is also expressed using a high ceiling and double height space. Higher ceilings create a more open space and allow the user to truly experience it. Higher ceiling spaces affect the users mental state as well, creating a space of awe and allowing the user to think freely and more abstractly. Those who believe in God and Jesus Christ live in awe of Him and the space provides and opportunity for users to pray and connect in relationship with God and reverence of Him. The Chapel is a solitary volume separating the outside world, a retreat for focus on nature, God’s creation. Intentional openings allow light in the space and open up views of the sea and nature. Small specific openings control strategic beams of light and large openings flood the space with light. Stained glass transmits light, and its colors and forms allude to nature. People are in awe of light and nature, so the spaces main design elements and focus is light and nature. Connection to nature and light are important because God is the creator of all things and He is known as the light of world bringing light in the darkness. God’s beauty and His very character is displayed in it.

ABSTRACT Wayfinding is the most important element that should be the forefront of design in an airport, where many programs and specific needs collide. Large amounts of all different people trying to move from one place to another on a time restraint and stressful process need wayfinding through the space. Signage throughout the entire airport should be eye catching and easy to read, located both above for all to see and down low at eye level. Arrows with signs or on the floor help give specific direction and more detailed wayfinding. arrows for direction, located up high and at eye level. Positioning of furniture and rope partitions help to control mass groups of people through an organized circulation. Roped partitions leading to service desks help to keep an organized order as well. Circulation paths are large enough for people to pass through the airport with luggage too. Seating is located in every space to offer space for resting or waiting. Material changes offer zoning for circulation paths to support wayfinding. Service desks and flight information boards are dispersed throughout for constant user help when needed. Amenities like restaurants and retail shops have their own unique design as a space within a space, offering a whole different environment. These amenities fulfill users’ needs and create enjoyment and entertainment, breaking up the stress of travel and transforming it into a fun experience. Signage and clear circulation paths create order and bring comfort in a stressful situation.

ABSTRACT The Oak Park Community Recreation Center serves its community with a space that is easy to pass through and enjoy. The use of color and glass helps signify the front of the building and draws the eye and user into the entry space. The three-story high building segment emphasizes the entry location around the building. The yellow color highlights the vertical circulation, leading the eye up to the other floors and to the stairs and elevator which move the user there. The color also lines the hallway walking path to other community spaces and the locker room. The use of glass helps with visual connection to other surrounding spaces, so guests can see other spaces and better understand where to go and how to get there. Clear walkways and space give the user pathways to follow to achieve their destination, users don’t have to make decisions for routing because specific paths are given. The vertical circulation is located in close proximity and in view as soon as the user enters the building. Lastly, zoned areas and visual elements provide a landmark for maneuvering to and around.

Barn B Hay Storage
Locally sourced bamboo, environmentally friendly material, good use of invasive plant
ABSTRACT I chose the Mason lane farm because I found it really interesting for an agricultural building to be LEED Certified. Both the site and Barn B played a role in its silver LEED Accreditation. A barn used for farm operations, equipment servicing, and hay storage goes above and beyond to produce a creative structure and system that works with the environment and helps the environment. The building uses passive sustainable design working along with the climate and landscape of the space. Both the building design and site work together as a holistic system, the environment and built environment coming together to fulfill the system needs of the farm. There are site gutters along the roof eave that move water run off from storms and rain to be collected in the basin. The site is closer to perimeter to preserve the dark sky without adding light pollution to the environment. Barn B uses locally sourced bamboo as its building material, bamboo grows fast and can quickly be renewed, an invasive plant put to good use. The built pattern with bamboo creates natural ventilation for hay storage, allowing it to dry out. Concrete footings allow the open-air structure to stand against strong winds. Materiality choice from recycled materials and local bamboo shaped the building strategies.

I am an individual that has appreciation for people that give respect towards others. I view life as a gift which comes with trust, reliability, and generosity. If you think about it that is what life is about creating your own legacy, showing your encouragement through everything we do in our daily lives is a necessity for becoming the person you want to be. The memories you build and create throughout your lively hood is chosen based how you as an individual choose what you want to do, and for me that’s creating magical relations with people that will know for the rest of my life. Being an inspiration to someone is what I want to be, I want to be a loving father and build a family, I want to create spaces that makes an impact to a community, I want to show passion through my work creating collaboration within your own life. In all, us as human beings need to be appreciative of the gift we were given and keep building a legacy we all desire. 514

Vidales Jr, Javier
I chose courage to be the main word that describes me for the reason being that I did not come into the program directly out of High school and felt so out of place the first few years here knowing I was not in the same age range as most of my classmates. Along with being an introverted individual did not help with establishing a quick relationship with others in my section. The motivational pursuit comes from within a small family that has always admired architecture, but never knew how the process of getting more insight of pursing aacademic education in that field. Having to do so on my own allowed me to step out of my shell and seek ways of getting here where I am today. The guest lectures In Shollmier had an influential impact on me allowing me to feel even more welcomed in the environment that I was in who spoke about similar circumstances I was in. Patience played a major role in helping me settle in without having the urge to leave scared as if I had no place in being here. It also helped create friendships in which I never saw coming from genuine people who care in helping each other progress. I have also learned to not mistake kindness with friendship since some only care to benefit from one another. My time here so far has made me play a role in which I feel good to be known as someone who can be reliable on. No just on due dates but as a person who can take creativity to a next level. Studio is a place I can find harmony at with no drama being involved and can be at peace with the welcoming vibes that surround space. 522

Wait, Martha MacNamara
My name is Martha Wait. I grew up in St. Louis with parents who love me. They were really good stewards of everything given to them and earned. My mom taught me to shop smart and on a budget, how to reuse things and be purposeful with my time. My Dad worked really hard to provide and put food on the table. He is self employed and does sales. He taught me how to communicate well with people. He taught me how to resolve conflict, ask questions, write emails, answer the phone. I am not afraid of conflict and all my friends will tell you that. I like to show grace on myself on others because I know that life is not always easy. I love resolving conflict and talking things through and adjusting when things in my life need to change. I have learned endurance growing up being an athlete and in college being a full time student. I try to be innovative in my time management and in all the things I do. I make a lot of mistakes and try to have humility and stay out of the spotlight. I like to seek peace and serenity and love calm environments, especially nature. I have many commitments and do my best to be faithful to them and responsible. 528

Walker, Lorelei Dawn
When living lifeI try to be intentionalwith every decision I make, small or big. I surround myself with people I think have differentideas or opinions, so I’m forced to broaden my mind. Being surrounded by people like this who also love and care for me makes me feel warm. Individualityis something that is very important to me as well, I tend to struggle with it. I feel like it it’s hand in hand with confidence, you must be confidentenough to stick out because being individual you’re automatically going to stick out and that’s what’s difficult for me. Something else that I tend to struggle with, but more recently have been getting good at is self-restraintwhen it comes to what I say to others. I find comfort in quietplaces, like out in nature or in my room. Beliefis something that fuels me and almost every other person, for me it’s a mixture of a belief in myself to overcome challenges and belief in a higher power. As I grow older, the more independentI get, I value doing things on my own, rather than being afraid of doing things alone. Doing all ofthese things and having a healthy balance, helps me to be calm. 536

Walls, Avery Brynne
In every situation, I approach it with love, and peace. One should always give someone or something the upper hand until proven it is not deserved. When it comes to my school and design work, I remain motivated, put passion into every design decision, and have thoughtfulness to every detail. Although these attributes can be visibly seen by others, I also remain humble in my abilities and quietly know that I am unique, and take responsibility to every action made, those good and bad. 544

Zamorano, Israel E
In embracing the complex tapestry of my identity, I find a profound sense of responsibility guiding my actions as I continue to learn every day. With a humble demeanor, I navigate life, recognizing the importance of empathy and understanding with my family and friends. An eccentric spirit fuels my creativity, allowing me to approach challenges with a unique perspective when I have a new project in studio. Grounded in the principle of self-determinism, I believe in shaping my own destiny through intentional choices and thoughtful decisions. A deep conviction in my beliefs propels me forward, infusing my endeavors with passion and purpose, and practicing my beliefs by attending church. Generosity is woven into the fabric of my character, as I strive to contribute positively to my peers and friends. Consistency serves as my compass, fostering stability in both personal and professional spheres where I practice building an agenda and schedule every week to help me complete all my tasks. As a visionary, I constantly seek to explore new horizons and innovate, driven by a desire to make a meaningful impact. Discipline forms the bedrock of my achievements, providing the structure necessary to turn dreams into reality; working hard always pays off. In the intricate dance of these qualities, I discover the harmonious symphony that defines my unique self. 552
