process It is good as a designer to understand your personal process that works for you. It allows for there to be a go-to system that you can always rely on while designing a project.

dr+dr² In the time period of all of the creative project I have been a part of, I found a process that works for me. I call it the DR+DR² process. It consists of defining the issue, researching, designing, reviewing the design, and then repeat. This process is very flexible in that some projects don’t need all five parts and sometimes the process takes months and other times minutes.

define Define what issue that you are trying to solve.

research Research various ways to solve the issue. Look up inspiration, case studies, and standards.

design Create a solution the issue.

review Evaluate the solution you created and look for potential new issues.

repeat

INTERIOR DESIGN Designing the interior of a space is not just about picking out materials and furniture. I focus on the psychology of the space and the user, and the overall experience.

People today don’t just want a space that is functional, but a space that they will remember and want return to.

2014 STUDENT DESIGN COMPETITION WINNER

forty-five wellness

2.1

Children's Wellness Center Indianapolis, IN

thinking wellness The well-being center for an Indianapolis community should be a welcoming environment to encourage the youth to actively seek overall health and wellness. The center is named “Forty-Five� in regards to the geometry and the meaning behind the angular name. Diagonal lines signify activeness. The structure is designed to keep the user alert and curious through interesting features on varied planes.

art Expression translated on paper or canvas has always been a passion of mine. This has been the foundation of my design style. It has allowed for an understanding of many designing principles (contrast, composition, color, proportion).

painting process

Painting is about layers. This layering process allows for patience in letting the process happen. First you start with the base colors, then add detailed feature, and then I like to add “flare�. After I finish the painting overall, I add bright, unexpected colors for visual interest

publication Publication design has been an extension of my graphic design knowledge.

Adding on layout knowledge and font proportion, it has expanded my understand, allowing me to work on various publication projects.

the concept The art catalogue is the creation of simple art pieces that follow a template or set of instructions created by the originator of the are design (an individual within the company).

The art pieces come in two different forms; hand-painted and printed. The hand-painted option will be made by an individual(s) within Mitsch Design. The printed option will be created in Adobe Illustrator (a vector-based design program). The Illustrator art files would be resized, recolored, and manipulated however is needed to fill client needs and placed in a canvas scale. At this time, all prints will be done on stretched canvas through an outside source.

Through the art catalogue design process, there is more of a controlled outcome of art selection for both the designer and client.

Catalogue Template Mitsch Design

the template As a summer intern, there was only a limited amount of time to create the Art Catalogue for Mitsch Design.

Instead of trying to complete the impossible task of creating the entire catalogue, I constructed a template for the company to build on to as they create more art catalogue options.

graphic design Developing a skill in graphic design started with one class that blossomed into making it my chosen minor. I not only want to use graphic design in it’s traditional understanding (logos, icons, signage), I want to make it an extension of my art foundation, using principles found in artwork.

The concept GraphiCAD is a future firm who plans to take older buildings and bring them into the 21st century. The initial concept of graphiCAD involved arrows that cycled around. Later, a way was found to not only incorporate the arrows but also the initials of the company. And then the one sided arrow was born for the GraphiCAD brand.

in progress There are sometimes projects that are not quite finished, but worth recognizing. It is always a pleasure to see where projects were at one point in time to where they are when they are completed. Noting the progression of a project allows for people to understand that design is a process and not something that just happens

proposed plan Emens Auditorium has remained one of the most recognized buildings on Ball State’s campus. It is my mission to keep the integrity of the auditorium while making the space easier to use. Users should experience an ease in navigation and a comfortable setting where they would want to be for however long their event may be. The auditorium should allow for users to have quicker access to the restrooms provided in the facility. Providing better space utilization will provide more possibilities for Emens staff.
