I OBTAINED MY BACHELOR’S IN INTERIOR DESIGN FROM INDIANA UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA IN 2024. I INTERNED ALL FOUR YEARS OF COLLEGE AT AFFORDABLE INTERIORS, LOCATED IN INDIANA. I STARTED WORKING AT LE BLUE GOOSE RIGHT AFTER COLLEGE, AS THE LEAD DESIGNER.

THIS PROJECT IS LOCATED IN LANSDALE, PENNSYLVANIA. THE FLOOR PLAN OF THIS PROJECT IS UNIQUE. THE LOWER LEVEL OF THE BUILDING HAS STOREFRONTS, SO I USED THE REST OF THE SPACE TO INCLUDE THE APARTMENT AMENITIES, WHILE ON THE TOP THREE LEVELS WOULD BE THE APARTMENTS FOR THE TENANTS. THIS BUILDING OFFERS A GYM, A LOUNGE AREA, A COURTYARD, AND PRIVATE OFFICES DEDICATED TO WORK FROM HOME TENANTS. THE RESIDENTIAL FLOOR PLANS OFFER ONE BEDROOM, TWO BEDROOM, AND THREE BEDROOM APARTMENTS.
MY GOAL FOR THIS PROJECT WAS TO CREATE A MODERN, COMFORTABLE, INVITING ATMOSPHERE FOR ALL TENANTS. I CHOSE TO INCLUDE A COURTYARD IN THIS DESIGN DUE TO ITS BENEFITS. I WANTED TO ENHANCE THE NATURAL LIGHT AND VENTILATION, CREATE A SOCIAL SPACE, REDUCE THE NOISE LEVELS, AND PROMOTE SUSTAINABILITY.

THIS PROJECT IS LOCATED IN AMBLER, PENNSYLVANIA. MY CLIENT’S OWNED BOTH PROPERTIES OF THE TWO TOWN HOUSES, THEY WANTED TO KNOCK DOWN THE WALL THAT DIVIDED THE TWO SPACES TO CREATE ONE BIG BEAUTIFUL KITCHEN. THEY HOST OFTEN, SO THEY WANTED A NICE SEATING AREA SO THEIR GUESTS CAN BE COMFORTABLE. THEIR STYLE WAS ORGANIC WITH A SMALL TAKE ON SPANISH STYLE. THEY DIDN’T WANT THEIR KITCHEN TO BE OVERWHELMED WITH CABINETS SO I INCLUDED SOME WOOD OPEN SHELVING.

THIS HOME IS A NEW BUILD, ONE LEVEL HOME. THE GOAL OF THIS PROJECT IS TO CREATE A WELCOMING AND WARM ATMOSPHERE THAT CATERED TO THE FAMILY’S NEEDS. ALONG WITH THE BASIC FUNCTIONS OF A HOME, I INCLUDED A HOME GYM, A HOME OFFICE, AND AN OPEN CONCEPT FLOW.
MY CLIENT’S STYLE WAS MID CENTURY MODERN, THEY LOVED WOOD TONES, SIMPLICITY, CLEAN LINES, AND ORGANIC ELEMENTS. THIS WOULD BE THE GATHERING SPOT WHEN HOSTING, SO SEATING WAS IMPORTANT TO THEM. THEY HAVE A DECK, SO I INCLUDED A PASS THROUGH WINDOW IN THE KITCHEN, SO THEY CAN ALSO HOST OUTSIDE AND PROPERLY USE THAT SPACE.
