SATTERLEE

WELCOME I was born and raised in Manhattan, KS, where I gained my passion and appreciation for design. Growing up my parents renovated homes locally, and I was always apart of the action. Being surrounded by this process is what has been my inspiration and driving force for everything that I do today.

I am now a third year student working towards my Masters in Interior Architecture and Product Design from Kansas State University. The IAPD Program is ranked #4 Graduate Interior Design Program in the Nation by Design Intelligence and is also CIDA accredited.

IAPD considers three levels of design that create the experience of a space: element, envelope, and environment. These three scales work together cohesively, through similar design processes, towards the same conceptual goal that contribute to an occupant’s perception of their surroundings.

I value the craft associated with both analog and digital means.

Here is a collection of my best undergraduate projects from the past few years.

Thank You

EXECUTIVE COACH BUS INTERIOR INDIVIDUAL WORKSPACE This project aimed at designing four different interior divisions of a bus that would be used by professionals in a variety of ways. Considering the users and the limited space, my group designed a portion of the front as individual workspace for multiple people.

How does someone work by themselves? Are others involved? How much space does one need for what they are doing? These are the types of questions we began asking ourselves.

We were lucky enough to have the actual shell of a coach bus donated to us for a period of time to do this project, and envision it right in front of us.

GROUP PROJECT This project was a team effort, being seven of us that worked together. I participated in the beginning research, ideation, and conceptualization, as well as full scale build of our design. My specific role in the group was to diagram our space and design within the bus, as well as the hand-rendering, perspective drawings and material board.

MUSIC STUDIO PAVILION CITY PARK, MANHATTAN KS This project was a proposal for a music group that would visit Manhattan to live and play for a period of time in the local city park. Our challenge was to design a place where this group could live, work and play.

The concept I worked from was a pavilion which opened up to the community in a means of outreach.

They are visiting to work and play, so I created a place where that could happen both privately and publicly at any given time from this one pavilion.

The structure is operable in multiple areas, so when playing for the community the structure can open up to the outside. On the other hand, when practicing and living privately, the structure can easily be enclosed.

The Client CDZA, short for Collective Cadenza, creates musical video experiments featuring highly trained musical virtuosos, particularly from prestigious music schools in the NYC area.

The official YouTube channel for the group was launched in 2012, releasing a new musical video experiment every other Tuesday.

TASK LIGHTING DESIGN WATER & LIGHT This project was to design a task light that could be used for our desk space. The concept I worked from was how light works with water and increasing productivity. I learned so much from this project, considering the amount of reasearch and science that was behind my overall piece. The way water diffuses light, working with water polymer beads, and incorporating a place for a living creature to swim.

The light comes from within the base that holds the whole piece. The light source is a battery operated push light that is inset just enough for the top to stick up so that when the clear form is placed on top, the user can control the light with just a push on and off.

PROSTHETIC COVER DESIGN CLIENT: BRYCE BOYER This project was to design a cover that could attach to the pylon of one with a prosthesis. This cover being a form of art, while still being durable for daily activities. The challenges we faced were how such a thing would attach to a prosthesis, given that there are many different kinds, as well as how it works.

This process started by 3D scanning our client’s prosthesis to get a basis for modeling around it, and then a series of interviews and learning about our different clients to form a conceptual design for the piece.

The concept behind my design was derived from a very active individual who lives life to the fullest, despite having prosthesis his entire life. He is into grappling and jiu-jitzu, so for this design I took the visual illusion from those techniques and moves to design an intriquite optical illusion, and patterned skin for him to show off to the world.

DISCOVERY TOY Children AGES 3-5 This was a toy designed to occupy a young child either playing by themselves or with others. I took the approach of steering the opposite direction of technology, and created something that was made of objects already in our world today, making a game that can be used individually without the use of another to play and stay entertained.

The interface is a compass, in which the dial would move based off of the earths magnetic forces, which would then land on the card faces I designed with different catergories and difficulty levels. These cards would essentially be an “iSpy� game to engage the child with their surroundings.
