Community Wellness
Center
Project Description: As part of a collaborative team with two other students, I contributed to the adaptive reuse of the historic Old Dallas High School Building over the course of a semester. The project aimed to transform the existing structure, currently home to various office spaces and businesses, into a community wellness center focused on promoting physical, mental, and social well-being. Our design concept integrated contemporary design elements with the building’s original Art Deco features, preserving the historical charm while updating the functionality. The project deliverables included a construction document set, design presentation boards, and furniture, fixtures, and equipment (FFE) selection.

My Design Process
This is the general design process I use for all my projects. Here I am showcasing my design process for my Senior Capstone Project.
Step 1 Programming
In the initial phase, I conduct thorough research based on the project brief to ensure informed design decisions. This research then informs the development of design concepts for the space, allowing me to create thoughtful and well-guided solutions.
Step 2 Preliminary Design
In this phase, I create preliminary sketches, adjacency matrices, criteria matrices, relationship diagrams, and block diagrams. These tools help me gain a deeper understanding of the spaces to be included and the interrelationships.
Step 3 Schematic Design and Design Development
In this phase, I develop more detailed plans and documents based on the spatial diagrams. I continuously refine the design, addressing feedback and any spatial challenges that arise. This iterative process continues until the design fully aligns with the project brief and meets the required quality standards.
Step 4 Presentation
Finally, I compile all the documents I have created and prepare them for presentation, which may include design boards, material samples, and individual renderings.
Challenger Dormitory
Project Description: I am serving as the lead interior designer for the renovation of an Air Force dormitory, focusing on interior finishes and materials selection. The project includes minor layout modifications aimed at improving the functionality and flow of the space. Drawing from insights and recommendations provided by a campus quality of life study, my goal is to create more inviting environments that foster social interaction and camaraderie. Additionally, I am incorporating strategic pops of color to enhance wayfinding and contribute to a more navigable and cohesive design.

PACE Center Project Description: For this project, our team of four collaborated to design a PACE (Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly) Center for the Stillwater community. Using floor plans from an existing building in downtown Stillwater as a base, each team member was assigned the task of designing a single floor, ensuring that the overall building design remained cohesive. The design adhered to a specified list of required spaces and square footage, incorporating essential elements such as ADA compliance, Universal Design principles, and special considerations for the aging population. My responsibility was to design the third floor, which includes activity rooms for participant engagement, physical rehabilitation facilities, a quiet room, staff break room, public restrooms, and storage spaces.
