P O R T F O L I O KATIE WILLIAMS INTERIOR DESIGN SELECTED WORK

1

HELLO! My name is Katie Williams and I am a fourth year interior design student at the University of Nebraska- Lincoln. My journey into interior design was not a linear path like one would think. In January of 2021, I made the bold decision to pivot my career and fulfill my desire of becoming an interior designer. Before deciding to dive back into academics, I gained extensive knowledge and expertise in store and corporate retail, as well as visual merchandising. I believe those experiences will aid me in my journey towards becoming a successful interior designer. I am enjoying the discovery of interior design and can’t wait to gain valuable work experience in this creative field.

Biophilic Portable Classroom

THE FUTURE OF NATURE INTEGRATED IN THE URBAN ENVIRONMENT // ACCESS, PLAY, DELIGHT

Clinton Elementary_Lincoln, NE

The intention of this biophilic classroom is to provide an atmosphere where the outdoors and indoors seamlessly merge into one cohesive environment that is safe and inclusive for our youth. The designed space will allow children growing up in urban communities to have the wonderous benefits of nature right at their finger tips.

Exposure to even the slightest amount of nature provides not only physical health benefits, but cognitive benefits too. Greenspaces let children roam and explore, imagine and create; but the built-interior environment can do just the same. Open learning zones allow for effortless circulation and navigation. For visual stimulant and overall design direction, natural landscapes found outside the realm of Lincoln, NE designate open learning zones. These designed topographies expose children to new locations they more than likely have never experienced first-hand. By blurring the harsh divide between the natural and built-interior environment, children will be able to thrive and uphold a sustainable lifestyle that can passed on and be enjoyed by future generations.

Ritual Journey Map

Students are guided on an all-day “outdoor” journey that takes them through gardens, forests, mountains, and grasslands. The time spent inside their adventure land is colorful, imaginative, inviting, and cozy.

The children are able to navigate the various terrains with ease and confidence.

Biophilic Retail Market

THE FUTURE OF NATURE INTEGRATED IN THE URBAN ENVIRONMENT // EDUCATION, GROWTH, SUSTAINABLE FOODS

CONGREENGATE MARKET The intention of this project is to provide an interior environment that enriches the lives of Lincoln’s urban residents via sustainable and accessible food systems.

Biophilic design drives the form, function, and ambiance of the renovated parking garage. The focus of the new public market/retail typology is centered on improving the health and well-being of its occupants, as well as simultaneously revitalizing the city’s urban landscape.

An open concept layout will allow occupants to seamlessly navigate between local food kiosks and retail shops, find moments to lounge, and casually dine. The nature-inspired atmosphere is programmed to be inviting, communal, and relaxing.

The enhanced urban interior will help build a meaningful connection between urban agriculture, the built-environment, and community belonging.

The purpose of Congreengate Market is to provide an inclusive environment for local vendors and community members to congregate (hence the name of the market) and connect with one another; all the while enveloped in purposeful biophilic intent.

Office to Residential Conversion

ADAPTATIONS OF VACATED URBAN HIGH-RISE INTERIORS// IN A POST-COVID ERA

THE MODERNIST The intention of this project was to generate a proposal that would provide an atmosphere where affordability and attainability meets forward-thinking design. By readapting vacant office spaces into multi-family housing with supportive floor plan layouts, design details, and elevated amenities, a diverse multi-generational community would be fostered back into the urban core.

Two targeted demographics- the small unit family and the “empty nesters”- are viable user groups for this multi-family conversion due to their influencial role in the supply-and-demand balance of the real estate market. Their needs and wants in a modern post-COVID domestic life complements the intricacies of what is involved with urban infrastructure; downsizing and flexibility being among the most important facets. If both user groups feel comfortable in their individiual units, satisfied with building amenities, and safe in their neighborhood long-term tenure is sure to be the case. Unit affordability is achieved via material choices and spatial programming. This helps drive residential attainability which will lead to apartment ownership rather than short-term renting.

THE MODERNIST_UNL SPRING 2023

The intention of this community space was to provide the residents of The Modernist with an interior environment that serves as an extension of their external office environment, but feels as comfortable as their personal apartments. Covid-19 has not only greatly altered the way in which present-day office settings look and operate, but equally how/where individuals conduct their daily work.

Residents can utilize the room on their workingfrom-home days if they need a work space outside of their units, but not entirely outside of the building. School-aged residents can also utilize the space as an after-school study room, while empty-nesters can treat the space as a library to read and lounge.
