Savannah Mullin Virginia Tech Interior Design Portfolio Fall 2022

Introduction

Hello! My name is Savannah Mullin and I am a third-year Interior Design student at Virginia Tech. I have always had a love for design and its ability to change the way we feel in an environment. I want to impact a large array of people by putting passion into my work. Design has a lot of opportunity for self growth and that is my biggest goal in my career. In my free time, I love to paint, dance, and learn new skills and hobbies.

01. Health & Wellness: CaaMTech

Third-Year Project

Located at 315 Albernarle Ave SE, Roanoke, VA, this newly restored 7500 sqft building has been designed based on entrepreneurs and as well as CaaMTech, a psychadellic tech company that researches drugs to help with anxiety and depression. Through the use of biophillic and sustainable designs, the space comes together with curvelinear lines for a comforting flow.

Perspectives

The spaces above and below depict a sample perspectives of what encapsulates the concept that the design was hoping to reach. Above is one of the many offices adapted with full accessibility to overhead storage, large table space for work, and double windows for maximum light. Below, one may see the large working hot desk space. With 19 workspaces, individuals may choose areas with a lower ceilling plane for intimacy, to a higher, more open space for an airy work environment. With entrepreneur offices to the left of the entrance, and the tech company, CaaMTech, on the right of the entrance, individuals are surrounded with a heavy and flowing workspace.

Cross Sections

The cross sections show below and beside best show the first and second floor transitionally. Areas that could not be shown, for example, the second floor corridor between the kitchen space and the offices, is best seen to show the movement of area to area.

Kitchen Axonometric

This axon displays a very important communal area of those who are inhabiting this workspace. The kitchen was an area that was made to give off a comfortable, yet professional feel. With hanging pendants over seating areas, the space is able to radiate that initial concept of personal space and comfort.

Large Axonometric

This large axon of the second floor shows how spacially sound the area has managed to become. The community space has allowed for a multitude of different seating options and the transitional space from there to the workplace allows for a smooth change.

02. Reinvisioned Soup Kitchen

Second Year Project

Located in Bioloxi, Mississippi, this reinvisioned soup kitchen has brought back a sense of life and comfort. The incorporation of curvelinar lines and vibrant colors gives the space energy to encapsulate a smooth flow. Individuals will come to distract from the noise of the outside world.
