The mission of the Discovery Science & Outdoor Learning Center, operated by the City of Ocala, Florida, is to create an oppertunity for community members of all ages to explore the world around them through science, art and the outdoors.

DSOC is a hands-on science and outdoor center featuring exhibit and special programs. The city of Ocala recently relocated DSOC to a former Armory building in Tuscawilla Park, a National Historic Landmark District.

The DSOC project objectives were to conduct pre-design research, create a new image and brand, prepare a program, propose a concept, and develop a design for the adaptive use and rehabilitation of the upper levels.

The design concept for inquisitiveMINDS was inspired by a woodblock print from The Atmosphere: Popular Meteorology, by the 20th Century French astronomer and author, Camille Flammarion. The image depicts a man peering through the sky as if it was a curtain through which to view the hidden workings of the universe.

This idea of mans inate curiosity translates into the design of the science center through the emphasis of exploration, as well as into the new branding and name: inquisitiveMINDS. Ultimately, visitors will have the oppertunity to fulfill their thirst for knowledge in a relaxed and fun environment, and will be inspired to continually search for more.

California Integrated Waste Management Board

California IntegratedWaste Management Board

California Integrated Waste Management Board (CIWMB) is the states agency that is in charge of overseeing, managing, and tracking Californias 92 million tons of waste generated each year. The new education and marketing facility for CIWMB in downtown San Francisco strives to meet ADA accessibility requirements and sustainable design

concepts within its design.

The design concept for CIWMBs new office space was inspired by wind turbines and the reduce/reuse/recycle cycle (the images to the left). The recycling triad translated into the design with the incorporation of three distinct Trash to Treasure areas that display adaptive reuses of trash. In addition to these custom-designed pieces, there are

two areas throughout the space that have Inspiration Wonder Walls containing information, images, and diagrams to educate employees and visitors about strategies to improve and sustain the environment. To further emphasize CIWMBs corporate identity, the companys color palette of blues and greens, as well as cross-hatching within their

logo is repeated throughout the space. Ultimately, the use of recycled, reused, reclaimed, and sustainable materials, finishes, furnishings, and equipment further emphasizes CIWMBs mission to train and educate the public about waste

management and sustainability issues.

California Integrated Waste Management Board (CIWMB) is the agency in charge of overseeing, managing, and tracking Californias 92 million tons of waste generated each year. Located in downtown San Francisco, the new education and marketing facility for CIWMB strives to meet ADA accessibility requirements and incorporate sustainable concepts within the design, such as, exterior views and natural light for the entire staff to enjoy.

The design concept for CIWMBs new office space is inspired by wind turbines and the reduce/reuse/recycle cycle. The recycling triad translates into the design with the incorporation of three distinct Trash to Treasure areas that display adaptive reuses of trash. In addition to these custom-designed pieces, there are two areas throughout the space that have Inspiration Wonder Walls containing information, images, and diagrams to educate employees and visitors about strategies to improve and sustain the environment. To further emphasize CIWMBs corporate identity, the companys color palette of blues and greens, as well as cross-hatching within their logo is repeated throughout the space.

Ultimately, the use of recycled, reused, reclaimed, and sustainable materials, finishes, furnishings, and equipment further reflect California Waste Managements creative, pioneering, and socially responsible vision.

FINE JEWELRY

The project objective is to develop a new prototype design for High-End Jeweler, Inc. who offers a unique selection of high quality, world-class jewelry. The design will be placed in multiple locations that will either be new construction or a retrofit of an existing tenant location.

The intent is to align the store environment with the core consumer and the current branding, and to improve the effectiveness of the design in conveying the brand to the guest. The success of the Prototype Design wil be measured by its effectiveness in achieving sales, fitting to a variety of sites, adapting for the future, presenting merchandise, and providing a consistent message to the guests with marketing.

Overall, the goal is to produce a store design that is easy to shop and encourages increased sales, as well as, meets the core customer service expectations.

The project entails the renovation of the Baptist Medical Center Beaches, in Jacksonville, Florida a half-mile from the Atlantic Ocean. The Beaches center is a full-service, high-tech medical facility with 146 private patient rooms and 24-hour emergency services.

Expansion plans include a 9,950SF renovation and expansion of the lobby/connector area providing welcoming/reception area, visitor services including gift shop, cafeteria, and lobby; a chapel, and administrative offices; and the renovation of the Gastrointestinal Endoscopy suite comprising 12 exam rooms and direct street access (approximately 5,600SF).

The project collaborator is Gresham Smith and Partners , a large Jacksonville firm specializing in health care design. Key objectives in this design are improving wayfinding and lighting and in general creating an attractive, comfortable, and relaxing environment that conveys the Centers mission of community advocacy, respect, excellence, and stewardship.

Because the location of Baptist Beaches is close to the Florida coastline, the design concept centers on bringing the outside in. This concept supports the idea of creating a nurturing and calming environment for patients and visitors. Natural elements and textures are used in the design materials, such as stone, sand, wood and water. Large planters that extend from the outside to the indoor public areas also help to blur the inside/outside boundaries.

The project collaborator in this project is Perkins & Will Branded Environments, a large firm in Chicago, Illinois.

The main goal of this project is to insure that the airport atmosphere is infused with local flavour and unique distinctive attributes from a specific location, in this case, Morocco, to give the traveler a taste of the place they find themselves. Four different character typographies were established that aided in the identification of specific programatic elements and needs.

Other key objectives in this design are branding and wayfinding and in general creating an attractive, comfortable, and relaxing environment that conveys a mission of community advocacy, respect, excellence, and stewardship.

An airport is the gateway to a city, a country, a culture. In order to attract more visitors and transfer travelers, the airport has to be of ultimate functionality and a place where you enjoy spending time.

The airport functionality combines travel functionality from departures, arrivals check-in, services and entertainment. It should be made accessible to everyone from every walk of life and of varied requirements. It should make the travel experience as seamless and enjoyable as possible regardless of your travel reasons and needs. Perkins and Will Design Brief

LAKE SHORE DRIVEHIGH-RISE APARTMENT

The project is a 2-story luxury residence in Mies van der Rohes famous Lake Shore Drive apartments, a high-rise complex in Chicago overlooking Lake Michigan.

The clients are an upper middle class professional couple who want their home to be a place that supports intellectual work, wellness and relaxation, art enjoyment and social activities. They want modifications including the designing of a staircase to optimize use of the space, and emphasizing; a) operational efficiency, b) distinctive spatial character with a clear design concept, and c) attention to human factors including universal design issues.

A major design concern is the location, mode of display, and lighting of their art collection. The centerpiece of their collection is the Sumac II mobile by Alexander Calder.

The design of a hotel room has to meet the needs of a wide variety of travelers. It should provide a place to relax and unwind at the end of a busy day. For some, it also needs to be a place to work and prepare for a business meeting. Certainly, they all need the standard accoutrement of a bed, seating area, desk and bathroom. But what will bring travelers back are the features that go the extra mile.

This was a project designed to hone & test our 3D modeling & rendering skills.

-fl-k-r- --The wall sconce design stems from the concept of a reflected sunrise over water. A solid, curved body simulates the horizon line, which is usually made by mountains, trees or landscape. An open top distributes a large ray of light upward onto the wall for ambient lighting and a small slit in the bottom of the fixture allows a smaller ray of light to shine downward for more direct lighting. The fixture is made entirely of recycled aluminum and is produced in a brushed or polished finish.

The lamp itself is a T-2 fluorescent bulb with 3500K color temperature that boasts a high efficacy, therefore saving energy as well as having a very long life span. The fixture is attached to the wall by four screws through the circular base and contains enough room to hold the ballast inside as well as any electrical wires. The wall sconce is designed to be used in hospitality corridors but could be used in retail or institutional locations as well.
