Harmonious International students living away from home feel isolated and overwhelmed, probably experiencing culture shock, while focusing on their studies and seeking a stable housing option. They may often find coping with others hard, pressured by social anxiety and lack of communication, which leads to homesickness and academic failure. This student housing project seeks to bring coping comfort through providing familiarity with design and socialization in a commu-nity.

Cafe’
The design of this café explores shape, form, texture, rhythm, harmony, and color. Inspired by the natural honeycomb, the Honeycomb Café incorporates shapes and color schemes to ref-erence community and activity. This space is multi-function-al, accommodating both small gatherings and large parties.

Custom Luminaire
The design is an abstracted form of tree branches. Using wood, natural elements are incorporated in the three luminaire designs. How the light is seen through mimics the ways natural light shines through the tree branches in nature. These luminaires utilize a 3000 k LED bulb, to resemble the color tem-perature of the natural light coming from the sun.
Kimberly - Clark Office
This project is corporate headquar-ters for Kimberly-Clark, a consumer paper products company. The use of the abstracted form of one of their products, bath tissue, represents and advertises their brand throughout the space. Incorporating elements of their corporate identity and products within the design include different hues and shades of blue, grey, and brown. The use of wood provides a warm, interactive, and authentic at-mosphere to embody their values and identity.
Walker Residence
The design combines the modern industrial concept with comfort and personality creating a space to accommodate and entertain the guests, all the while showcasing an art collection. The use of a neutral monochromatic color palette pres-ents the perfect environment to emphasize the artworks. The natural materials such as concrete, steel, and wood incorporated within the industrial design provide a warm, welcoming, and relaxing home environment.
