SUSTAINABILITY GOALS: WELL IMPLEMENTATION
a. A11 - Source Separation: Enhance user olfactory and air supply through strategic placement of indoor pollutant sources and implementation of self-closing doors and vestibules to separate users from potential VOC’s and particulate matter.
b. Light Exposure (L01) & Daylight Design Strategies (L05): Promote the implementation of daylight in museum spaces and regulate productivity and mood of users by implementing seating and user spaces with 16-20 ft of envelope glazing, while also having 15% of the regularly occupied floor space equated in envelope glazing.
c. Sound Mapping (S01): Maximize acoustic comfort of users through strategic placement of spaces based on their intended sound levels and providing flexible acoustic solutions that further manage traveling noise.
d. Material Transparency (X07): Prioritize user health by utilizing products (flooring, wet-applied, and furniture) exclusively endorsed and disclosed through third party sustainability organizations.
e. Nature and Place (M02): Highlight the connection between humans and their place in the environment through access to outdoor garden spaces, and the integration of personal connection via artistic implementations in non-gallery spaces.

The atrium simultaneously serves as a welcome center and touchdown space for users. The high ceilings create a compression and release dynamic between the atrium and adjacent spaces.
Galleries serve as rotating exhibits for painting, sculpture, photography, mixed media, installation, and other means of artwork. Finishes are neutral to accommodate changing displays and not overwhelm any artwork.

The Archival Library is meant to be a noticeably different visual environment than the rest of the museum. A reservable space, the quiet study space allows users to learn more about the museum collection in a warmer, focused space.
The Bazaar, the eccentric museum store, is just as much an art piece as anything in the galleries. Custom millwork acts as an architectural artwork that elevates the retail space.

The Eatery - Cafe
Project Overview
NEXT is an architecture and design firm located in downtown Dallas, Texas. They are dedicated to sustainability, equity, diversity, and inclusion in the workplace while fostering innovation and collaboration.
The 14, 303 SF space draws inspiration from the built environment of Dallas while also tieing in natural elements to meet the psychological benefits that derive from both the built and natural environment.
The space encapsulates NEXT's core values by implementing bright pops of color, engaging displays, and a braiding of collaborative and independent spaces.

MONUMENTAL STAIRS
This stairwell, acting as an art piece as much as it is a mode of transport, is inspired by the triple interstate system of Texas . The exaggerated line work not only appears like sweeping traffic lanes, but also emphasizes the fast paced nature of Dallas' built environment. The monument acts a hub for the west side of the space, an organic sculptural element in a sea of linear walls. It's striking presence evokes creativity for those around it, an important visual element for the workplace.
ELEVATOR ELEVATIONS
The elevator walls are symbolic of the co-existing relationship between the built environment and the natural environment .
With one side exhibiting wood planks and lights that span the wall like a skyscraper, it reminds users of the power of innovation. Oppositely, the green wall towers over users to bring a grounded sense like being beneath a tree. Having this element placed in the entry and exit space, bring a marriage between built and natural environments for all users to ponder.
13
Workstations are arranged to allow employees to collaborate or focus in on independent work. The workstations are surrounded by collaborative spaces to encourage using on-site resources to innovate.

STEELCASE NEXT
Huddle
Reception
Meeting rooms are designed to be modern, welcoming, collaborative spaces where employees are engaged in contributing to the conversation.
In a workplace largely inspired by the built environment, a greenhouse space allows users to step away from stress and connect with nature. The site of this project is the third floor of a building, so this green space also serves as an alternative to the outdoors when time is tight or weather is unfavorable.

Project Overview
The Chop Shop Supper Club is an upscale dining experience that reflects the heritage and style of 1940s Wisconsin. Inspired by the unique dining hall at Harrods in London, The Chop Shop combines luxury with industry. Materials are chosen for their transcendence of time and displays reflect the grocery businesses that were often run by immigrants that would influence the cuisine of Wisconsin and the nation. This standalone classic space is also an homage to the classical styles that shaped modern design and a love letter to the heritage groups of Wisconsin, making thoughtful nods to the past, while remaining an independent beauty.

Dining Area
Project Overview
Positive Alternatives is a non-profit group home for at-risk teens in the northern and central Wisconsin region. Their current Menomonie facility houses between six and eight teens at a time.
Their current space is outdated, run down, and not spatially arranged for optimum use. The goal of this renovation was to keep as much of the space untouched as possible as residents need to live in the facility during renovation. Additionally, offices needed to have as much supervision to the common spaces as possible, and fixtures should be tamper-proof, and finishes need to be durable and safe for a behavioral health facility.
This was a team project I completed with two peers. We aimed to create a biophilic effect in this space with respect to the natural spaces of Menomonie.

Tempered rain glass between the common space and the private offices allow for privacy for office occupants but still allow for a medium of supervision into the common space.
Counter top seating allows for a separation between the common spaces but offers the option for a conjoined space.
26 Kitchen POSITIVE ALTERNATIVES
Chairs in the dining space are tip proof, making them suitable for a behavioral health setting. The wall shelves are custom made to be tamper-proof, to allow residents to showcase artwork or photos without being at risk for harm.
Dubbed “the cave” by our design group and client, we designed the living room space to be a darker, chill space for residents to decompress. Using acoustic wall sticks, we were able to render a quiet, dark space in contrast to the light finishes in the remainder of the building.
The furniture in this space is both modular and tamper-proof, light enough to move when needed, but heavy enough to not be thrown.

Project Overview
YouMedia is an existing library program located in the Chicago Public Library that provides teen students and young adults modern technology and educational resources to take their knowledge beyond the classroom. This application of YouMedia is applied to an existing floor of the Milwaukee Public Library. This space strikes a balance between maturity and childlike wonder through the use of color, materials, and furniture applications.
Additionally, the space encourages discovery both individually and as a community. Focus was primarily on end-users via researching Milwaukee demographics to determine how design can benefit and cater to a diverse audience.
This project was recognized by BWBR for their student scholarship program.

The solid surfacing material texture is intended to mimic the curvature of the flooring design and the other organic masses and shapes throughout the space.
Space planning for this building was based on noise control; grouping the noisier activities on the left side of the space with the more independent, quiet spaces on the right.
The two general areas are divided by the reception space that has the most acoustical components to control sound travel and contain as much noise as possible to its respective areas .

The Cafe, Performance Zone, and Social Zone were combined as a way to contain as much of the noise from those activities as possible to a single area.
The pink wall has voids filled with colored glass to allow staff members at the cafe pergola to still keep an eye on users in the Media Space on the other side of the wall, given the few sight lines to the area.
