Too much shopping is done in the comfort of our own homes and we, as a society, have nearly disregarded the concept of true social interaction. The internet has made it very easy for us to have what we desire as we mindlessly live in our isolated pajama pants world. The “bazaar mentality”, where consumers gets excited to go shopping, is dead. With this project, the aim is to please everybody with a bizarre and diverse program. Not only is it a place to house a considerable amount of retail stores, it also serves as a node of entertainment, social contact, sustenance and relaxation.

This studio was designed to challenge the norm by taking an experiential approach to the design of a single-family house. Students were asked in the early stages of schematic design to commit to a conceptual framework through a series of supporting analyses and design exercises resulting in a project sketch. Each student was expected to come up with their own specific program and guidelines relating to their own fictitious family. This specific family was designed to need a work space integrated yet separate from the main household. The site was located on Gurney Street in the suburbs of Cambridge, Massachusetts.

“Notions of architectural specificity, complexity, authenticity, and flexibility are typically eschewed in favor of the traditional trappings of conformity.” -Alex Anmahian, Graduate Studio Professor

As a new company, Yoga By Jenna was in need of a catchy logo for fl yers, sign up sheets, business cards, website, and a social network campaign. The concept was to take the structured practice and spiritual ideals of yoga and transpose them into a simple logo. The colors were chosen for the punchy and earthy tones as the title and font choices are simple and to the point.

Extra Touch Gourmet is a small cafe in Bedford, New Hampshire that specializes in soups, salads, sandwiches and specialty retail products. The responsibilities for this freelance graphic design project included designing a new website and developing an entirely new brand. Shortly after the logo was completed, the company began selling bottles of their own house wine. These wine labels were specially designed for each individual vintage and are now sold in the cafe.

Extra Touch VintageExtra Touch VintageShirazShiraz

This robust dry wine is dark in color with a rich bouquet of warm berries, fresh pepper accompanied

by distinctly peppery notes. It ages gracefully into a velvety wine of pure elegance, perfect for entertaining. A

powerful heavy oak finish fills the palate.

Extra Touch VintageExtra Touch VintageSauvignon BlancSauvignon Blanc

Crisp, light amber color with good acids. The nose is reminiscent of

freshly cut herbs with a hint of mint. It will enhance rather than overpower any dish. A wonderful complement to any light dish and

delightfully refreshing.

This wine's character is distinct with a black currant nose and

fruity flavor with smoky, spicy and earthy notes. Its taste might also be

reminiscent of dark chocolate, tobacco, and leather.

Extra Touch VintageExtra Touch VintagePinot GrigioPinot Grigio

Medium-bodied and complex with herbal aromas in the bouquet

and flavors of lemon and peach. The finish is crisp, and dry with excellent acidity. A gentle bite to

entice the palate, make this appealing to many.
