TRAILS TO HEALTH
This Assisted Living facility focuses primarily on health and well-being. A facility that believes in compassionate, graceful aging. This project involves a wide range of creative, fun services designed for age groups between 60-85 years or older to provide lifestyle options that meet your loved one’s unique needs. The assisted-living wellness programs provide an environment for group fitness dance classes, painting classes, personal fitness training, team gardening, and pool use, to further improve activities of daily living (ADLs), balance, and strength. The interior contains Large open hallways and entrances that are easier for residents to move through and meet and greet their next-door neighbors. Incorporating custom natural wood elements for ceiling design, and further helps residents recover from stress, mental fatigue and generally lifts their mood. Every design aspect in this project supports social connections both between patients, staff, and the community that arises from such connections through careful decisions regarding wayfinding, circulation, and materials. Having a combination of natural light and soft artificial lighting throughout the space. Varying seat heights, sturdy chair arms, and ergonomic support make residents and guests feel more comfortable, especially aging populations with limited mobility. Exercising in a group setting also provides an added layer of safety for older adults who require more supervision during activity. Although it can be a challenge and can seem like a good reason to slow down and take it easy as we age, they’re even better reasons to get moving, to get motivated, to trust the path of endurance and Trails to Health will lead us there.
As apart of the design process, I analyzed a selected poem to generate a visual diagram and to be able to diagram the structure of the poem by developing a system of layers based on analytical methodology.

The WOOLEN World
IDES 207- Studio 3: Experience
• Existing Building: Cooper Hewitt National Design Museum in New York City Location of Building | 2 E 91st St, New York, NY 10128|
Welcome to the Woolen World Exhibition where we explored the material history of wool as both a cultural and spatial substance; leading to the design of an exhibition on the subject at the Cooper Hewitt National Design Museum in New York City. I investigated various aspects of the history and performance of wool, culminating in a compendium of research, which was used to generate the terms of the exhibition.
This photo shows the shearing process by which the woolen fleece of a sheep is cut off. Domesticated sheep have been shorn since the dawn of civilization. Early on, wool was a vital resource to support human life. Wool is a unique type of fiber that just grows on the hide of sheep. Sheep are sheared with electric shears or manually with scissors or hand blades. this exhibition will focus on the importance of the sheering process as the act of sacrifice of the wool being removed. Being able to physically experience the wool being removed and feeling the sense of relief in the end. Seeking the presence of violence, being able to read the kind of crudeness of the blade having passed over the body of the animal. This is the violence of welcome.

Wool Studies
The Pasta studies were used in place to substitute the wool. Having to explore the material behaviors and histories of wool led to inform ideas and methods for generating an immersive exhibition experience.

The first sectional room consists of using felt material surrounding the entire room. The guests will be able to able to interact with the wool material by walking and touching the rough cut edges of the felt material that is stacked above at tall lengths. The signage and the information for the exhibition will be cut out within the felt material showcasing the written description for the exhibition.
