KA’ CHI RESTAURANT FOOD TRUCK TO RESTAURANT PROJECT TYPE

RESTAURANT |

YEAR

2021

The client has been running a successful local food truck and is now opening her first brick-andmortar restaurant. I have been hired to design the interior for the new restaurant. Her business has an existing brand identity—name, logo, typography, color palette based on the particular culture & cuisine, which will be the basis for my interior design. The restaurant will be located on the first two levels of 201 N. 3rd Street.

The core concepts are, engaging with others in different ways throughout the distinct spaces.

Creating the option of a new experience each visit. Transparency and Nature, tying in the materiality of nature. Using the empty spaces between wood slats to create just enough transparency to unite the spaces while still keeping them separate.

PEDIATRIC AUDIOLOGY OFFICE PROJECT TYPE

MEDICAL OFFICE

|

YEAR

2022

In this project my clients are two physicians who have partnered up to open their own medical office. Each floor serves a different medical field: audiology, dentistry, and ophthalmology. This project will cater specifically to the audiology floor for children. The space uses contemporary forms, colors, lighting and materials. The clients want the office to express current technical expertise with an appealing aesthetic.

This design was inspired by Mondrian with the intent to use colorful volumes, lines and textures to create a space that enhances a child’s visual and tactile experience.

HERMES POP-UP SHOP PROJECT TYPE

RETAIL

|

YEAR

2022

In this project I was assigned to choose a luxury brand and design a pop-up store in the Italian department store La Rinascente, located in the historic center of Rome. During the analysis and survey phase, we researched compelling environments/experiences that influence alluring atmospheres and learned about strategies of visual merchandising. As a final result, we proposed a temporary organization of the space for creating a unique shopping experience.

The leading concept is creating a space for people to be transported into a world of Hermes.

An immersive experience by playing with Hermes’ historic orange color. The atmosphere will challenge Hermes’ classic flagship interiors and create a new world using tactile and visual experience through materiality and color. The “bar” experience will create an interaction with clients and allows a moment of rest in La Rinascente.

MENTAL HEALTH CENTER PROJECT TYPE

HEALTH CENTER

|

YEAR

2022

In this project we were challenged with the design of a multi-purpose Health Care Center located inside one of the Roman former slaughterhouse pavilions. The project site is characterized by its mixed activity and use: cultural, residential, commercial and educational. An additional feature is the multicultural character of its inhabitants and users.

The main concept is creating a safe space and creating connection through healing. A place for people to seek refuge no matter their background. The use of multiple zones to allow people to find their home and make them excited to come back and work on their mental health.

SHRUB OAKS AUTISM SUPPORT SCHOOL, DINING HALL PROJECT TYPE

DINING HALL |

YEAR

2023

Shurb Oaks existing dining hall was cold and bare. The client wants a space where people with autism can thrive and enjoy their dining experience. This group project allowed my partner and I to dive into Magda Mustafas concepts and create a space that will excite the users of this space while still allowing for sight lines all throughout for safety.

1. Bringing the outdoors in through landscapes and nature.

2. Incorporating a layout of organic movement and flow.

3. Utilizing curved seating arrangements and circular table setups to enhance comfort and reduce sensory overload.

This ultimately will create a soothing and inclusive dining environment.

PHOTOGRAPHY

|

YEAR

2020 - 2024

Film photography allows me to capture beautiful memories through non-digital means. Using film creates an intentionality in the process of taking each picture. Due to the limited number of pictures on each roll of film, more care is put into the composition of each photo. My film photography here showcases Italy and creates images that capture the true colors and emotions of the landscapes.
