PINE & PEAK HOSTEL
COMING SUMMER 2025
PROJECT OBJECTIVE
Many hostels in the United States no longer meet the needs of modern travelers who seek immersive experiences, cultural engagement, and a balance of socialization and privacy. Traditional designs often lack adaptable spaces and community-focused amenities, limiting meaningful interactions.

Natural elements like green spaces and lighting enhance the experience while reflecting each location’s identity. This redesign aims to keep hostels relevant and appealing to future travelers.
CONCEPT
The “Force of Nature” concept is inspired by the elemental forces—wind, water, and geological movements—that shape national park landscapes. This design uses natural materials, organic forms, and dynamic layouts to immerse guests in the power and beauty of nature. Each hostel location will reflect the unique natural forces of its surroundings, offering guests an authentic experience that connects them to both the environment and the park’s landscape.
DESIGN GOALS

PURPLE GOAT AGENCY WORKPLACE
PROJECT BRIEF
The goal of the project is to design a 10,000 square foot corporate workplace for Purple Goat Agency that utilizes a collaborative culture and creates a cohesive environment for employees. Purple Goat Agency is driven by inclusivity which will reflect the design of the space. The staff have multiple abilities that will require ADA compliancy such as adjustable tables and chairs, maneuverable materials, and wide doorways.

The Reception space acts as a resource area for employees and users upon entering the work place. The custom reception desk has two separate surface heights, granting accessibility for all users. The reception and waiting area are designed with curvilinear lines and a warm color palette to welcome users in as they walk in the front door, creating an inviting and pleasant mood.
RECEPTION AND WAITING
CONCEPT
The design of Purple Goat Agency‘s workspace will be centered around the concept of Progress over Perfection, an idea that encourages focus toward smaller, more present achievements, rather than becoming blinded by the end goal. Workplace trends are shifting, creating a culture that is focused on personal growth and awareness without the pressure of perfection. This concept is reshaping the workplace to create a balanced and motivating dynamic. This will be expressed within the design through strategic space planning and unified movement that will create a haven for the agency and its employees. The core of this concept will be alluded to within the open concept, rhythmic layout, and subtle contrast within color and pattern that unify the company values and culture.

The Work Café provides a comfortable, functional space for employees to step away from work, offering varied seating options that support territoriality and choice. Its layout features wide pathways and open spaces, ensuring accessibility for all at Purple Goat Agency. Inspired by the idea that “progress is impossible without change,” the design embraces movement and evolution, shaping a dynamic workplace for employees and clients alike.

WILLIAMS BUILDING
FLORIDA STATE UNIVERSITY
The Williams Building was constructed in 1927 and named after the first chairman of the history department, Arthur Williams. This building includes both Gothic and Jacobean features throughout the doorway. The Gothic Arch is among one of the main features of this building that contributes to the historical style that is present throughout Florida State’s architecture. There are multiple decorative aspects as well that include motifs and ornamental details that go up the front of the doorway and reflect on the history of the building. The elements add to create an ornate sense of decoration on the front of the building that is unique to its facade. There is also an English bond pattern in the bricks that is consistent in the doorway and the remainder of the structure. All these architectural features work together to bring out the Gothic and Jacobean style that is historical throughout the campus.
