The Heritage Gateway is a multiuse residential building that honors the historic character of downtown Lawrence while embracing modern sustainability and community-focused design. Bricks from the Lawrence Journal-World building (currently on the site) are re-purposed to reflect the site’s history, while a layered facade combines ceramic tile cladding with opperable brick screens, allowing residents to customize shading and privacy. Ground-floor retail spaces, a café, and a gym activate the building, while green roofs and garden spaces enhance urban biodiversity and offer places for relaxation.

Heritage Gateway is an R-2 building with a sprinkler system throughout. Its exterior walls are rated for 3 hours of fire resistance, while the interior walls are rated for 2 hours. Constructed using Type IV materials, the mass timber offers excellent fire resistance by charring instead of burning through, which forms a protective barrier.
Heavy timber frame with flat glulam beams supported by massive 3-hr Fire Resistance Rating (FRR) columns with thick CLT one-way panels (Type IV-A/B/C).

Nexus Heath Wellness Center
Design Concept Nexus Heath Wellness Center
Nexus is a project where health, fitness, and community converge in downtown Lawrence and offers a vibrant, interconnected space that fosters holistic well-being through exercise spaces, healthcare and spa services, and inviting public areas. The building’s design draws inspiration from the surrounding pathways—sidewalks to the west and south, and a street alley to the east—that guide movement around the site, shaping the flow of the building’s interior spaces. Just as these pathways facilitate navigation through the urban environment, Nexus incorporates clear, intuitive pathways within the building that connect different areas to each other and the outdoors, enhancing wayfinding and encouraging exploration. The design also organizes each level based on the required privacy, with public, communal spaces on the ground floor and more private/members-only areas on the upper levels. This spatial arrangement mirrors the site’s pathways, where proximity to the street or alley determines the level of accessibility and interaction, ensuring that Nexus provides a balanced environment for social engagement and personal retreat.
Site Context
The site for our studio project is at the corner of 11th and Massachusetts St. in Lawrence, KS, within the Downtown Lawrence Historic District, known for its well-preserved 19thcentury architecture. Our project involves designing a health and wellness facility for the community, incorporating therapy spaces, public retail, and a members-only gym. The site’s north-south orientation is ideal for maximizing solar access, particularly on the south facade, which can benefit from solar gain in winter with appropriate shading devices for summer. Because this building will be utilized by the local community, the site context analysis includes other buildings with
similar user groups such as retail and entertainment spaces, parks, and restaurants. Surrounding landmarks include the Watkins Museum to the west, the J.E. Stubbs Building to the southwest, and the Douglas County Courthouse to the south. Sidewalks border the site to the west and south, with a street alley to the east, and a bus stop and two linden trees are to the south. Sounds range from the ambiance of shops and cultural sites to occasional traffic noise, while smells shift from appealing restaurant aromas to less pleasant odors from the dumpsters in the east alley.

Vivacity Memory Care
VIVACITY MEMORY CARE
Project Background
I needed to create a vibrant, user-centered interior environment that encourages and facilitates social interactions and engaging activities among mildly cognitively impaired elderly with Alzheimer’s Disease. It was very critical that the design reflects a non-institutional ambiance. These expectations are all based on design research data that show that non-institutional type interior design significantly helps elderly populations with Alzheimer’s Disease. As a result, the Client will see the interior design of this facility incorporates state of the art design features that heavily draw from the most recent, cutting-edge research on designing for Alzheimer’s and Dementia and all design decisions are based only on research evidence.
Right now, there’s an estimated 6.5 million Americans with Alzheimer’s, and due to a higher life expectancy, the number is growing.
What is it?
Alzheimer’s is a brain disease that causes problems with memory, thinking, and behavior.
How is it caused?
The disease is caused by an abnormal build up of proteins in and around brain cells. Over time the brain cells die and the brain shrinks.
What are the effects?
Some symptoms of Alzheimer’s include; memory lapses, mood changes, disorientation, problems speaking, and problems with depth perception. Problems eating, incontinence, and serious problems with long and short term memory come with more severe Alzheimer’s.
Concept FLOW
Inspired by the human brain, the design of Vivacity Memory Care Center focuses on the flow and energy of each space. The facility’s organic layout and well arranged activity and rest areas allow for a focus on psychological health and living a meaningful, functioning life.

Sustainable Smart Home
SUSTAINABLE SMART HOME
Project Background
A classmate and I designed a sustainable smart home fit for a homeless family in Kansas City Kansas. We researched the challenge and then designed to accommodate it applying human factors, sustainable design, and smart technology. The home was designed to be LEED certified as well as to provide a safe, low cost housing option for a family coming out of homelessness.
Demographic Research
53% OF HOMELESS MOTHERS DO NOT HAVE A HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA
85% OF HOMELESS CHILDREN HAVE BEEN EXPOSED TO A SERIOUS VIOLENT EVENT
The Johnson’s have been struggling with homelessness for months after Jessica was a victim of domestic violence in their home. She and her children have been bouncing between homeless shelters, her car, and friend’s homes. She struggles with finding a permanent place to stay due to low funds from having to pay for some type of childcare while working at a local grocery store at minimum wage.

Concept
This smart home incorporates materials and elements that aren’t overwhelming and flashy as well as an emphasizes balance between connection and privacy. People living in this smart home will be connected through spaces designed for social time, as well as rooms that are literally connected together through a wrap around deck on the second level. There are multiple outdoor spaces designed to connect the residents of the home to the outside.

Rendering of Kitchen & Back Entrance
Rendered Elevation of Kitchen
These spaces are the ones I designed to be completely open. On the first levels, if someone was standing on one end of the house, they could see completely through to the other side. Since the home is designed for a family seeking help after homelessness, connection within the space was a top priority. A natural, flowing color scheme and room separation that is not completely closed off with a slight elevation difference helped with that in this design.
