INTERIOR DESIGN TO ME...
From the start I knew I had a passion for interior design.
Growing up as a daughter of an architect I learned how design affects many things beyond just the walls of a building. Design creates an environment, sets moods, and provokes emotions. Meeting your clients needs, choosing sustainable options, and fitting your budget are important aspects of design. I want to create designs that matter.

CONCEPT STATEMENT
The PACE Center located in Stillwater, Oklahoma will be a known 'hub' for the elderly within the community. The design of this space will allow for activities, gathering, and care for those important individuals who are so often left out of society's mind. The built environment will promote the socialization, mobility, and respite desperately needed in older age while keeping sustainability in focus. This will be done by incorporating sustainable materials as well as encouraging mindful sustainable actions, which gives this center purpose beyond the small group of end-users that the space will cater towards.

BOUTIQU HOTEL
GROUP PROJECT- 16 weeks, Spring 20
Revit, Enscape, Research & Programmin
12
The goal of this project was to chose an existing historic building and create it into a space of our desired use. My group chose a building located in Atlanta, GA that is currently being used as an office building. We wanted to recreate this space into a boutique hotel with the existing bones and inspiration from the city.
13
The main challenge we faced in this project was the layout of each floor because of the existing columns in the building. For the four floors we had to create a floorplan, RCP, life safety plan, fire safety plan, elevations and furniture floor plans. With such large spaces we chose to use wayfinding on the first floor by using different flooring.

LEVEL 2
My main focus of this project was the second floor gym. Making this space luxurious and comfortable for the guests was my main priority. To achieve this goal I choose a calming color palette and division of spaces with the use of lighting. To tie in the location of this hotel I chose a mural of the Atlanta skyline for this space.
