Danielle PomeroyWith gratitude,

With a highly motivated and enthusiastic attitude, I approach all aspects of design towards the goal of problem solving while satisfying enrichment of happiness, quality, and value.

I look at this field of design as a leading change for good in regards to the world we once lived in before,the world we live in now, and the world we will continue to grow in.

The process of discovering, implementing, improving, and ultimately thriving from, is a journey worth taking.

For design is not just a job, it is a way of life that allows for growth and development through time and passionate work, with the collaboration of great minds.

studio work

studio spaceartists’

tiny

Through being introduced to the fundementals of design, this project allowed me to explore solutions towards designing a studio space for an assigned designer, under 100 sq. ft. I developed ways to maxamize space usage through providing a full wall of built in storage that also doubles as a disply case for the artist to show their products.

collaborative communitiesdesign fora

Universal Design should be the norm for public architecture. Through my design I aim to push the boundary away from the division that architecture and design creates between those disabled and those not; in order to build a community that grows through the interaction of all users.

This adaptive re-use project turned a historically preserved bank building in Oakland, CA, into a Center for Independent Living. The hypothetical design project explores how the principles of universal design can be integrated into a community arts center that thrives off collaborative and interaction with a diverse group of users from all expertise.

Extending a visual expression through the communication of design in a comprehensive way is my aim when designing graphics. Dynamic, bold, and interactive are all qualities I try to emulate. I am drawn to making simple designs that speak on multiple levels yet respect the boundaries of clarity & understandability.

poster designlecture series

I had the opportunity to design the Fall 2015 AAA Lecture Series poster for the University of Oregon. The design focused on taking bold graphic moves in a clear, well defined manner.

Photographed by: Danielle Pomeroy

Inspired by Islamic geometric patterns, I aimed to use contrast as a way to spark interest. The monochromatic text and background contrasted by the bold and irregular, bright red pattern effectively moves the reader throughout the menu. A hand made recycled wood board lays below the menu and displays its sense of artistic quality.
