Dining Located at the Cranbrook Academy of Art, students were designated as our client group given to us. The Fibers Department told us how they felt connected to nature with the location of Cranbrook and that the art they did helped connect them to the earth as well. After seeing what was important to my client, I added features such as “weaving” the tops of my tapered wooden beams, with multiple levels for eating and gathering, while leaving it all open for the client to enjoy the outdoors around the space.

Music Studio An inspirational studio space for an artist that we listened to, in my case, it was Childish Gambino. Located in Detroit’s historic Eastern Market which is full of culture and art. Childish Gambino has a large variety of music that has evolved as he’s gotten older. One thing that is consistant throughout his work is how he tells a story about where hes at in life. I wanted to design a studio that included a space for the public to interact with that can help inspire Gambino. The site includes murals that people can create art on that Gambino can see as he enters his studio.

Shriner Peak Fire Tower This project was based on single unit dwellings in different biomes. The biome of my topic was forest and I looked at a fire watch tower in Washington. Then using that knowlegde the design for the project was thought of. An elevated two-floor building that offers simplicity and customization to fit many different views.

All the furniture in the tower can be moved to fit the residents desires.

Chicken Coop The focus of the chicken coop is to allow as much activity and movement as possible for the hens living in the coop. A walkable green roof, elevated indoor walking spaces, and nice water garden were all added for the enjoyment of the hens. The roof is all one connected material “folded” over the structure. The front wall opens up to allow access for the hens’ caretaker to enter the space.
