The image incorporates pastel, colored pencil, and markers to create a life-like replication of a magazine photo. The project taught me about color theory, mixing colors, and utilizing different design media in the process.

Floor plan for a Russian commercial office. The plan features wood floor inlays and a linear layout that promotes authority. A linear layout and space plan was created for easy access to a conference area, sitting area, and executive desk.

The kitchen project introduced me to axonometric drawings and lighting plans. I integrated general, task, and accent lighting through the use of under cabinet lighting, and incandescent can lights. Elevations also convey the cabinetry design better.

The design problem challenged me to create a unique master suite design that reflected a time period in interior architecture. To convey the art nouveau time period, I prepared a rendered perspective, cabinetry elevations, building sections, furniture and finish selections, and a rug design.

This project introduced the concept of office systems design. The goal was to create an exciting corporate concept which portrays a positive forward-thinking image for a successful interior design firm. I first developed a single workstation, then combined four stations to form a team pod, and progressed to designing the entire floor plan for the corporation. The administrations as well as staff spaces were designed for function and aesthetics with custom carpet graphics to facilitate way-finding.

The project was the first project I undertook with an actual client. The design problem was to renovate the old Wyatt building in downtown Nacogdoches into residential lofts for professionals. My teammates and I developed two unique staircases for the apartments as well as an ADA compliant single-level apartment. Other project highlights were the integration of game rooms and offices. This project required interior and exterior elevations, reflected ceiling plans, electrical plans, and section drawings.

The display was created out of 6 perpendicular pieces of plywood. The design provided ample space and a creative space to display my college work.

The human sciences expansion project was our final senior group project. The project included CAD work, space planning, and final presentation boards. Teams were to create a solution that would solve how 6 different majors should use and share 3 buildings efficiently.
