I AM A JUNIOR ENTERING MY SIXTH SEMESTER OF STUDYING INTERIOR DESIGN AT IOWA STATE UNIVERSITY. I HAVE LEARNING EXPERIENCE IN BOTH THE RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL DESIGN FIELDS. I SPENT THE FALL OF 2024 STUDYING RETAIL DESIGN IN ROME, ITALY. WELL-BEING PRINCIPLES, SUSTAINABILITY, AND LUXURY DESIGN ARE ALL ASPECTS THAT INTRIGUE ME AND DRIVE MY LOVE AND CURIOSITY FOR INTERIOR DESIGN.

OKOBOJI IS A LAKE COMMUNITY LOCATED IN NORTHWEST IOWA. I GREW UP SPENDING SUMMERS THERE WITH MY FAMILY. AS MY FAMILY EXPANDS, A LARGER CABIN IS NEEDED TO CONTINUE OUR SUMMER TRADITIONS INTO THE NEXT GENERATIONS.
REMODEL
I DREW INSPIRATION FROM MY RECENT TRIP TO NANTUCKET, INTODUCING A COMFORTABLE, COASTAL CONCEPT FOR THE CABIN. IT IS DESIGNED TO HOST LARGE GATHERINGS OF ALL AGES.
ORIGINAL PLAN
THE ORIGINAL FLOOR PLAN IS FROM THE LATE 1960S. IT FEATURES 2 BEDROOMS, 1 BATHROOM, AND 2 LIVING SPACES SURROUNDING THE KITCHEN. THERE IS A DETACHED 2-STALL GARAGE. THERE IS A LARGE DECK FACING THE BEAUTIFUL EAST OKOBOJI LAKE.
UPDATED PLAN
THE UPDATED PLAN CONNECTS THE GARAGE TO THE HOUSE. THIS ALLOWS SPACE FOR A BUNKROOM, ENTERTAINMENT SPACE, AND AN ADDITIONAL BATHROOM. THE NORTH FACADE EXPANSION ALLOWS FOR A FORMAL DINING ROOM, LARGER KITCHEN, AND A SPACIOUS LAUNDRY ROOM. THE DECK PROVIDES MORE SPACE FOR ENTERTAINMENT DUE TO THE OUTDOOR KITCHEN AND POOL DESIGN.
YVES SAINT LAURENT WAS BORN IN ALGERIA AND OFTEN VISITED MORROCO TO GET INSPIRATION FOR HIS COLLECTIONS,
