BEYOND THE BOX
YEAR: 2018, Studio IV DURATION: 3 weeks SQUARE FOOTAGE: 43,000 CONCEPT: Collage *team project With the growing quantity of empty “Big Box� building shells comes the growing opportunity for adaptive reuse. From research found through online databases and personal surveys, it has been concluded that based on the high number of students, small business, and a lack of existing spaces of this type, there is a need for modern, temporary or permanent, workspaces for entrepreneurs, students, and small businesses to develop ideas, work, and collaborate in Tallahassee, FL. CO+OP, a co-working space, will provide Tallahassee with a membership based, modern, communal workspace for entrepreneurs, students, and small businesses to develop ideas, work, and collaborate. Improving user well-being is a main driver for the creation of this space--choice and autonomy is provided through physical flexibility of the space with a relatively low overhead cost. The space will feature several different workspace options and styles, as well as amenities such as meeting and conference rooms, an event area to accommodate up to 130 people, lounge, and a cafe space.

CONCEPT IDEATION
Collage is the collection of various elements. The contemporary workplace can be seen as a collage—people of different generations, ages, ethnic backgrounds, and personalities all working under one roof to create community. Co-working facilitates the opportunity for an even larger assortment of people to come together and collaborate. Through an assemblage of materials, modes of work, space types and environments, and user groups, the concept of collage will be applied and represented.

ZYSCOVICH ARCHITECTS
YEAR: 2018, Studio III DURATION: 12 weeks SQUARE FOOTAGE: 16,975 CONCEPT: Cultivated Distinction, represented through map motifs This design has addressed client needs and design goals through the application of a variety of materials, an open space plan, and furniture arrangements that allow employees to find respite. With most of the space being an open plan, there is frequently an opportunity for spontaneous engagement and consistent collaboration. Despite the open floor plan, users still have the opportunity to personalize their work area and move work station styles when needed. Nearly all long-term work stations are placed near a window or have sight-lines to the outside. Diverse material and furniture selection creates an environment for the user where they can find a space where they are truly comfortable and work efficiently.

CONCEPT IDEATION
Zyscovich architects embody the idea of “Cultivated Distinction” their employees need a work space that promotes creativity and inspiration. With influences from maps and the aerial views of farms, this workspace becomes a metaphor for the diverse and ever evolving Miami landscape. The aerial view of farms influenced the layout throughout the space, encouraging the use of slanted lines leading to a dynamic and rhythmic space plan. Materials and finishes will be refreshing and take influence from a fruit based color scheme and consider textures found throughout nature.
1. Diverse Materials:
To, throughout the space, use diverse materials that engages users, while ensuring not to be overstimulating/overwhelming—achieved through a thoughtful color scheme and carefully selected finished/materials
2. Collaboration: Encourage collaboration and mingling within studios and around
the office; this can be achieved through soft spaces/meeting spaces being dispersed within the space and by placing collaborative spaces by PMs and Exec—the best ideas are often those discussed with others
3. Well-Being: Provide adequate personal space per employee, as well as provide adequate soft seating and enclaves to allow for alone time and focus work—spread enclaves throughout and place them in easy to see areas to encourage their use

MEZZANINE, featuring the urban planning studio, and private offices
Red is used carefully throughout the space to give consistent bursts of color without fatiguing employees. Soft space areas utilize several different colors and materials to keep surface diversity high. Varying ceiling heights create an unspoken walkway to the stairs.
With enhancing creativity in mind, this space is more vibrant than other areas of the office. The red ceiling and strong geometric shapes to encourage determination and confidence. Low room dividers help to keep the area feel open and spacious.

RIGHT| The work cafĂŠ is designed to be a space that accommodates sudden inspiration. It is placed across from work stations to encourage employees to take lunch away from their desk.
Soft seating areas seamlessly transform into open work areas making it easy to quickly share ideas. Natural light and several types of artificial light illuminate the space. Lowered ceilings make the open office feel comfortable, along with the use of a warm color scheme.

GOURMET GROCER
YEAR: 2018, Studio III DURATION: 3 weeks SQUARE FOOTAGE: 40,000, of which 5,000 is retail space CONCEPT: Lunchbox; fresh, cheerful, playful
LB, a Gourmet Grocer prototype store inspired by the lunchbox, will service a suburban area of the upper middle class in northern America. Trends are leading towards the automation of the grocery store—with this, there is the potential for a lack of social interaction that comes naturally with grocery shopping. The lunchbox has inspired this design solution with its connotation to the youthful, the social, and the healthy. The concepts of fresh, playful and cheerful have directed the design solution for LB by Gourmet Grocer, and will be the key to their successful business model. An efficient design will allow groceries to be automatically curated, packaged, and delivered to the user via the LB grocery store hub. Traditional grocery shopping is revived through this new, innovative design.

Raw materials, like brick, reclaimed wood, and concrete, are meant to reflect the natural and honest business model that LB holds. Bright blue branding is meant to contrast with the raw materials to draw attention to the store and to the store name. The small patio area, combined with the garage doors, is meant to open the space up and let the outdoors in, creating the potential for a seamless transition from inside the store to outside.

With an eclectic style and vibrant color scheme, LB encourages customers to shop and relax in a positive, lively environment. If customers need a couple of items, they can purchase from the prepared foods sections, or if they need a “pick-me-up”, they can order from the automated, gourmet coffee maker in “The Box”. The indoor picnic area offers customers an area of respite where they can enjoy food, interact with the garden, or simply wait for their order to be completed at the pick-up station. At the end of their trip to LB, groceries that have been ordered will be available for pick up under the green canopy, which acts as a wayfinding feature to the exit.

PHYSICIAN PARTNERS
YEAR: 2018, Studio IV DURATION: 8 weeks SQUARE FOOTAGE: 4,696 CONCEPT: Healing Crystals
With patient comfort and admin efficiency in mind, crystals and their connotations are used to influence this clinic’s space plan. This plan is asymmetric and geometric: the south wing is dedicated to admin areas and the north wing is dedicated to patients. By using exclusively rectilinear shapes, efficiency was achieved and a sense of order is created—this is especially important for the nurse station which is placed in the middle of a cluster of exam rooms. With patient wellbeing as a priority, various furniture and upholstery options are used throughout to accommodate as many types of people as possible. A multi-colored, but muted palette is used to create positive distractions without becoming overwhelming. Blue and teals are used heavily throughout the space to evoke a calm feeling.

CONCEPT IDEATION The patient experience is often consumed with worry and anticipation, which makes the routine of going to a doctor’s office marked with stress and anxiety. With these emotions in mind, the concept of HEALING CRYSTALS will aide in enlightening the patient through their clinic journey. Crystals connote reflection, meditation, and light, while denoting geometric forms and beauty in nature. There are specific crystals that are known for assisting in healing within western medicine—the deep blue, warm gray, coral, and teal colors of these stones will be used throughout the space. With an intention of providing several medical services to a wide variety of patients, each piece of furniture will be selected to enhance user experience. This concept will bring positive energy, as well as mental clarity and balance to the physical space through geometric, rectilinear forms in an asymmetric plan, that one is in, while personal medical needs are cared for.
GOALS •Create logical adjacencies through geometric, and balanced spaces to e n s u r e efficiency and minimize the number of steps physicians, nurses, and patients have to take to reach an intended destination •Prioritize comfort for all people who enter the space through thoughtfully selected furniture that accommodates a wide variety of people and ages •Evoke a sense of calm through furniture and finish selections that help patients feel comfortable, relaxed, and welcomed
FINAL DESIGN PROPOSAL
LEFT | Reception elevation with clinic branding and geometric, stone reception desk
In the waiting room, blue walls and accents create a calm and soothing environment. To accommodate as many patient types as possible, there are several styles of seating options and two layouts: a living room style with lounge furniture, and a more linear layout with more upright furniture.
ABOVE | Exam room door elevation featuring signage with geometric, transparent, and natural signage. LEFT | Lab room elevation with raised millwork to allow for easy cleaning.
ABOVE | Exam room elevation featuring raised millwork for ease of cleaning and bariatric seating options. LEFT | Axonometric view of exam room showing exam table, and monitor for charts and positive distractions.
This view into the nurses station displays its central location in relation to exam rooms and waiting room. Flooring change under the nurses station suggests a change in privacy level. Wayfinding is bold and geometric, but does not overwhelm the space. Semi-transparent walls create a sense of privacy without disrupting sightlines.

OTHER WORKS
YEAR: 2017, Graphics II DURATION: Varied
Hand renderings were created throughout the fall semester for three different projects: the first is an inspired rendering from an existing photo in a magazine, the second is a series of 12 products of different materials (of which four are shown) that were re-created using a personal rendering style, and the third is a residential that I designed based from a floorplan. All renderings are created using Prismacolor markers and pencils, and multi-weighted graphic pens.
