Hoa Vo's Portfolio

Hoa Vo’s Portfolio

Welcome to my art and interior design portfolio! My name is Hoa Vo, and I am a passionate artist and interior designer based in Scottsdale, Arizona. My love for art started at a young age, where I would model houses in papers and imagine myself living inside them. This passion grew as I pursued a Bachelor of Arts in Vietnam before moving to the United States in 2014.

During my time in the US, I continued to nurture my artistic skills by taking oil painting classes at Glendale Community College for three years. I also pursued my academic interests and obtained a Bachelor of Science in Design from Arizona State University (ASU). I am currently in my third year working full time as an interior designer at VMconcept Interior Design Studio (VMconcept) in Scottsdale, Arizona.

In my opinion, a good space is one that brings joy and happiness to its occupants. I believe that a safe, convenient, and sophisticated space can enhance the quality of life for those who inhabit it. As an artist and interior designer, I strive to create spaces that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional and practical for everyday use.

I am excited to share my portfolio with you and showcase my art and interior design projects. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about me and my work.

ASU Project based on house in San Francisco Fall 2020

Professor : Salvatore Cosenza

This research project explores design concepts, frameworks, and methodologies that are relevant to living environments. It serves as a laboratory for testing student ideas and observations while fostering the development of empathy, creativity, and resilience. The project requires the integration of technique, visual literacy, and analysis in order to develop students’ ability to effectively communicate their understanding of scale and human behavior.

The course requires the studio to cover several essential aspects of interior design, including programming, space-planning, and metric measurements. Students will learn to prepare design concepts and apply them to create functional and aesthetically pleasing spaces while considering universal design principles and ADA guidelines to ensure accessibility for all users. Additionally, the course will emphasize the importance of researching and selecting appropriate finish materials to achieve desired outcomes. Through this course, students will develop critical skills necessary to become successful interior designers.

LOCATION AND SITE RATIONANLE

To experience this site at the heart of urban Phoenix, is to participate in a lively environment of diverse backgrounds and creative expression. The walls are salted with colorful murals everywhere you look, each place houses a unique contribution to the community, and right in the middle of a lot at the intersection of 2nd St and E Roosevelt St. Adjacent to the site is the monOrchid coworking space, active with a place to grab a cup of coffee, collaborate on projects, and showcase the pieces of local artisans. Across Roosevelt is Arizona Arizona Wilderness DTPHX, where locals enjoy an outdoor dining experience around picnic tables and fire pits. In addition to the benefits of the area’s social network, this lot requires no significant change to the topography or removing natural landscape, and existing ADA compliant sidewalks. The orientation of the site is such that the main pedestrian traffic on Roosevelt faces North, so the building project can face north and south, improving the amount of available indirect sunlight in the space as well as reducing heat.

Professor : Jose Bernardi, Sonja Bochart, Alyssa Robinson, Scott Ross Steffes

The course will explore human - needs based research in conjunction with evidence based design and sustainability while looking at the future of healthcare environments. How does the built environment impact healing? How does the built environment impact quality of life? Why should healthcare organizations consider this in designing their facilities? What is their return on investment for these initiatives? What can designers do to make the transitions positive life affirming ones? What are the current trends for relevant and innovative healthcare design for our community health centers that will transform the patient and caregiver experience?

BOSTON R&D Hub

Concept Statement

The NEXT design and plan will be inspired by the North Atlantic Ocean and is in a Futuristic style. The design will clarify the vision of the life of the future where humans and robots live together, as its aim is to improve everyday living through robotics. Inspiration comes from the ocean, to remind us to appreciate the contributions of the city, its residents and the organizations that assist the Boston ecosystem restoration efforts.

We must agree that the world we live in is changing every day, due to human activity, weather, technology, economics, climate, the pandemic and so on.

The workplace strategy I focused on included the following points:

• Multi-functional spaces

• Employee engagement, collaboration and productivity

• Honoring local culture and customs

• Balancing transparency with confidentiality

• Sustainability

• Employee well-being

Fluid = Movement + Culture = Living Style

Color Rationale

The split complementary color scheme is used to create an enthusiastic environment and comfortable feeling. This color scheme evokes creativity and freedom in work, brings optimism and produces positive energy. Indigo blue symbolizes the depth and breadth of the North Atlantic Ocean, while olivine green, canary yellow, and citron orange represent vivid vegetation on the shore and in the sea.

Spring 2021 until to day

In 2021, I was presented with the chance to commence an internship at Vmconcept design studio located in Scottsdale, AZ. I initially joined as a lead designer assistant and have since progressed to become a senior interior designer, with three years of experience in the company. As part of my job, I interact with clients, conceptualize designs, and use computer programs to draft them. I particularly enjoy the process of selecting materials and fine-tuning furniture designs to enhance the sophistication and character of my clients’ lifestyles.
