DESCRIPTION

During our Junior Spring semester project at Texas Tech University, we were tasked with designing a wine resort which included 3 different selections of cottages of varying sizes, a winery and wine production space, a restaurant, a venue, and a check in and reception area My assigned town was Loudoun County which is known for their vast vineyard landscapes and refined wineries. In preparation for this project, we researched everything there was to know about our given location, wineries and what elements are essential, and what can make our resort an overall sustainable and desirable place to stay

Some challenges to this project included figuring out how to create a functional and spatially cohesive resort.

The inspiration behind this project is a colonial voyage. Virginia has a deep history and was part of the original 13 colonies of the United States. The state played a major role in both the Revolutionary War and the Civil War, with big parts of those wars taking place along the coasts of Virginia. Pieces of Virginian’s coastal history and old architecture can be found in this project that both integrate the dark sides of the stories and the positive sides.

BURLINGTON CO-WORK SPACE

D e s c r i p t i o n :

During our Junior Fall semester project at Texas Tech University, we were tasked with designing a commercial co-working space, alongside a retail space and a cafe, within a chosen US town. My chosen town was Burlington, Vermont. The project required ten renderings, and two rendered floor plans We were also required to present the best aspects of our programming and design development phases. To accomplish this, we learned Revit within a semester and utilized it to create a two-floor commercial complex. All of our renderings were produced with Revit and Enscape

The challenging thing about this project was trying to utilize the given space in the most efficient and functional way.

THE INSPIRATION

Green Mountain Works, the co-working space created for my junior year project, derives its name from the lush landscapes of the Green Mountain State, Vermont. Incorporating biophilic elements was essential for both the aesthetics of the design and the health and well- being of the inhabitants. In addition, the concept behind Green Mountain Works revolves around creating a collaborative working environment with a simple yet inviting design, aiming to instill a sense of comfort and productivity that entices people to return.

DESCRIPTION:

For my Senior Capstone project at Texas Tech University, I saw a need in the community for a better mass commuting option which led me to create a train station

This capstone project focuses on the design of a 50,000 sqft train station at the existing Lawnview Station in Lawnview Park, Dallas, TX The goal is to address the pressing need for a safer, more efficient, and accessible mass transit system to accommodate the rapid population growth in North Texas. With Dallas facing increasing congestion and the potential for more traffic-related accidents, a reliable and well-designed public transportation option is crucial The current DART rail station, being primarily outdoor and exposed to harsh elements, offers a suboptimal commuter experience. This project aims to create a station that not only prioritizes safety and navigability but also provides a welcoming, comfortable environment for daily commuters By enhancing wayfinding, shelter, and overall security, the design seeks to inspire future improvements in Dallas' public transit , setting a new standard for commuter stations in the region.

C O N C E P T S T A T E M E N T

Like jazz music the station will flow seamlessly, evoke a calming feeling, and will represent the working class of Americans. Jazz music also originated from a blend of music styles symbolizing the diverse Dallas, Tx. The space will imitate this calm feeling of Jazz with mostly warm and neutral tones with pops of brass to symbolize the saxophone and guide the eye through the space. The station will also have nods to the age in which jazz music became a largely recognized music form: the 1920's. This can also be seen in the construction methods such as utilizing steel, brick, and stone for support.
