Interior design is the art of visual communication and storytelling. Each element must harmonize to create a cohesive, inviting atmosphere. I thrive on finding innovative solutions to the design challenges that arise from the unique functional and aesthetic requirements in each project. My aim is to craft spaces that reflect the inhabitant’s narrative while supporting the demands of their daily lives. As a junior designer, I am looking for a role where I can learn and grow. More specifically, an opportunity to contribute to innovative design solutions while learning from and supporting industry experts who share the philosophy that good design changes lives.

Maximizing Space
I treat my own home as a visual diary of my interests and travels. Working with only 700 sq.ft, it became crucial that the scheme would not reduce the perception of space. A paired back palette with sage green and gray accents offer vibrancy without feeling overpowering. Additionally, this neutral palette offers a canvas for my collection of art and artefacts, which rotate constantly. The result is a welcoming refuge that fosters my creativity and offers flexibility in my evolving taste.

I was tasked with specifying finishes, fittings, and most importantly, wallpaper. My client wanted to make a statement and had a desire to show case her travels to Sub-Saharan Africa. In the guest bathroom, we decided to reflect this in the safari-esque wallpaper. In contrast, the powder room offers a more refined aesthetic with textured Farrow and Ball wallpaper. Photographs of her travels across Africa sit in silver frames, which reflect the light beautifully.

One Room, Two Spaces
Prior to starting my education, I was tasked with bringing life to an attic room. The primary goal was to minimize the visual weight of the ceiling. Low 5-foot walls created a sense of disproportion, posing a significant design challenge. I decided to paint a substantial portion of the ceiling, which creates the illusion that the walls are taller.
Additionally, the client desired versatility that adapted to his lifestyle. Color was used to define zones for sleeping and entertaining. A dimensional blue enveloped the sleeping quarters. This calmer space faded quietly into the background during frequent evening gatherings taking place in the bright art-filled sitting area.
SAELOUN JANG
DAEJEON, SOUTH KOREA SENIOR LIVING
Pride of Place
Zoiros Frontida, or “ZF” is an American company that operates senior living facilities across the globe. ZF prides itself on seamlessly integrating their facilities into different locales and cultures. Their newly built South Korean facility was to reflect the traditional design elements of the locale, while offering a sense of modernity.
Saeloun Jang - (Korean)
Translates to English as “New Chapter”
The transition from independent living to a facility can be daunting for seniors. It can condure a fear of the unknown, the loss of independence, and a feeling that this is the end. Naming the space Saeloun Jang aims to reinforce that this transition is simply a new chapter.
Interweaving Cultural Fabric
The main goal for this senior living facility was to reference the hibiscus flower’s symbolism of unity, resilience, and strength.
The concept for Saeloun Jang came from the idea of tradition, and how this would look translated into present day. Local materials promote familiarity and foster a connection between Saeloun Jang and the country that these residents call home. Hajji papered screens and wall dividers are punctuated by fabrics that reference traditional South Korean motifs, while contemporary lacquered furniture strengthens the relationship between the past and present.
Inspired by the National Flower
Unity | Strength | Resilience
For centuries the hibiscus flower has been an integral part of Korean history and culture. The hibiscus began as a medicinal remedy for a variety of ailments such as fever, coughs, and skin irritation. This humble flower continues to be symbolic in modern culture, representing unity, resilience, and strength.

Promoting Physical Activity and Accessibility
The goal for the grand-stair was to create an enticing alternative to using the elevator. Open sight lines and an open planned seating area in-front of the grand-stair creates vertical connectivity between the first floor and the floors above. Incorporating pull off areas with seating provides a space for residents to rest and enjoy the views through the windows behind them.

MISSION FRESH
MISSION BAY, SAN FRANCISCO RESTAURANT
Served by Tony Riviera
The brief given by client Tony Riviera was to create an upscale eatery that redefined the farm-to-table experience. Rivera was interested in tapping into this market from a fresh angle. The cuisine emphasizes presentation and a level of sophistication that was continued into the design concept. As put by Riviera, “The interior should support the food.”
The Root of Organics
Our natural world is comprised of a symphony of organics. Smooth shapes, live edges, and delicate intricacies are elements that are difficult to replicate indoors. The interior seeks to pay homage to the food source of Mission Fresh, California’s shores and terrain. The concept of farm to table is often translated as rustic, or farmhouse simplicity. Mission Fresh seeks to challenge this perception by demonstrating how sophisticated farm-to-table dining can be. The design incorporates biophilic forms, surfaces with patina, and an overall feeling of naturalistic elegance. The interior supports the gourmet sustenance by providing an elevated and memorable dining experience that will remain in the mind of the guest for a life time.
Biophilia
The Foundational Connection between Man and Earth
Roots connect us, both through heritage and through the relationship we have with the earth. Mission Fresh seeks to cultivate this relationship through design.
LEVEL 01 MAIN DINING AREA
THE ROOTS OF MISSION BAY
Nostalgic images of farmers markets, co-operatives, and early revolutions in the farm to table movement of the 1970s pay homage to the heritage of this age-old way of procuring and serving food.
DINING AREA
Presentation Matters
San Franciscans are known for being forward thinking trend setters. The Bay Area has a sub-culture of health-centric restaurant goers that enjoy nothing more than well presented food in a well dressed room. As stated by client Tony Riviera, the interior should support the food. Guests dine beneath a mahogany tray ceiling, which is complemented by polished marble flooring, brass, leather, and textural wall coverings.

CUSTOM BOOTH DESIGN
Dining in style, No-Matter the Weather
Mission Bay is just as mesmerizing by day as it is by night. A custom booth design provides shelter and integrated electrical conduits provide ambient lighting well into the night. Succulent raspberry and blueberry bushes offer a buffer from the Westerly winds without impeding sight lines of Mission Bay in the distance. Seasonal Produce, such as aromatic herbs grow mere feet from guests in an on-site garden and greenhouse. In addition, guests are encouraged to pick their own fruits and vegetables for an added layer of immersion in the farm-to-table experience.

THE DINING EXPERIENCE
Four Seasons, Four Senses
The outdoor dining area is a celebration of the farm-to-table philosophy, where the essence of fresh, local produce meets the tranquility of nature. This design concept is inspired by the authenticity of farm-to-table dining, creating an immersive experience that connects guests with the origins of their food through sight, smell, touch, and taste.

SAN FERNANDO VALLEY RESIDENTIAL
Hampton’s - Meet Southern California!
Boston transplants Jess and Bo recently traded the blue and white stripes of the Hampton’s for a Mission Revival home in the heart of the San Fernando Valley. As per their request, they wished to bring some of that quintessential style into the walls of their new family home. It was of high importance for these new-to-be parents to have a comfortable and attractive space that catered to their frequent dinner parties, and the inevitable movie nights and sleep overs to come.
Concept
Our design concept for this traditional home is rooted in creating a warm and inviting space that fosters togetherness and comfort for the entire family. Drawing inspiration from classic design elements, we aim to blend timeless aesthetics with practicality to accommodate the needs of modern family life. Layers of texture in deep blues and grays create an air of sophistication while paying homage to the classic blue and white palette of the Hamptons.
A Mirror, a Metaphor.
Reflecting a Growing Family
A mirror is defined as a surface capable of reflecting diffused light to form an image of what is placed in front of it. Mirrors are also known as a looking glass. When we look in the mirror what do we see? Ourselves, surrounded by our lives and our things. An antique mirror holds these reflective qualities, but more so, it holds the past. The patina from generations of history and use glazes the mirror like a film of heritage. While history is being made the mirror continues to sit patiently on the wall, reflecting the contrast between old and new.

The timeless Built-In gets a Face-Lift
In every East Coast family home, built-ins are a cherished feature, seamlessly blending with the home’s architecture. In the kitchen and dining area, they provide practical storage for appliances, while shelving around the fireplace adds symmetry and space for personal items. This mill work pays subtle homage to East Coast traditions, serving as a backdrop for modern furniture and balancing old and new aesthetics throughout the home.
