ABOUT

Hi my name is Lauraine Ramadan. I am a hard working and driven Interior Design student who is always looking to broaden my skillset through manual and digital methods. I have always had a passion for anything that allowed me to utilize my creativity. I graduated with a degree in Social Science in 2019 and spontaneously decided to pursue interior design as it was something I always thought I would enjoy. Now I am extremely happy with the big step I took and cannot wait for what the future holds for me and my career.

CHANEL

Toronto, Ontario

This Chanel boutique resides in the distillery district and is considered a heritage location. The design concept revolves around Chanel's symbol; the Camelia flower. The organic symmetry of the Camelia flower translates into the luxury space to create structure and flow in the store for customers. Using the concept words of Layering and Symmetry, I was able to create a luxury space that represented the brand.

HUMBER DENTAL

Toronto, Ontario

The design of the dental clinic follows the principles of alignment. The balance of architectural form, colour, and space planning. Along with it being a visual balance, alignment is also about cohesion and how pieces fit together perfectly. This aligns to the approach that the dentistry industry has with taking pride in ensuring patients smile with properly positioned and cleaned teeth. Keeping these principles in mind will result in a patient-centric design focused on creating an overall sense of wellness for staff, clients, and visitors.
