Senior Capstone
Dementia Care o4
Concept: Supportive Functionality
This senior living facility was designed specifically for those suffering from dementia. Dementia can be very difficult on not only the person who had it, but also on the family members who are caring for their loved one with dementia. Creating a safe, interactive, and home like environment that provides round the clock care for those who have dementia can relieve some of the stress placed on the family of those who suffer from this condition. This facility features a private rooms for each resident, activity spaces, a sensory room, and an open kitchen as well as many other features that allow residents who live in the space to feel at home and comfortable in their environment all while maintaining their independence and dignity.

BREWERY
Inspired by the lack of women in the brewing industry, I wanted to create a brewery immersive experience that embraced women in the brewing industry. Ladies and Lagers is a brewing experience like no other. On the first floor, visitors would enter and purchase a ticket, and then take the elevator or travel up the winding staircase to the second floor. On the second floor, there is a bar/resturaunt area. Visitors can try some of the beer or grab a quick bite to eat. Next, they would travel up to the 3rd floor where they can learn more about the brewing process and how women have made an impact on the brewing industry. 1st Floor

Concept: Modern Elegance
The James hotels have a very modern look to them and have a major focus on luxury and making their guests feel pampered. Many of the rooms give off a mid-century modern feel while other spaces feel more elegant and sophisticated. Overall, the look that the James Hotel is trying to achieve is modern elegance. The use of bright whites, clean lines, and a more muted, neutral color pallete will achieve a level of calmness and purity within the space while still giving it that simplistic yet luxurious feel that the hotels have.

Odd.Dog Marketing Firm

Concept: Eclectic Modernism
Odd Dog is a very unique company with very indivualistic people and I want this space to represent those indivuduals. Using a mix of bright and more muted colors and modern design trends like flexible workspaces, collaborative furniture and so on. My goal was to create a modern and unique space that fits with the needs of this company.

Oncology Suite Concept: Lavish Lavendar
This oncolgy suite was inspired by the healing properties found in lavendar. Not only does it smell good, but lavendar can be used in aromatherapy to help reduce stress and anxiety. The lavendar plant has also been seen to reduce hair loss in cancer patients. With all of these elements in mind, this hospital room was designed to be a relaxing and stress reducing environment for cancer patients experiencing long hospital stays.

Pediatric Office
Concept: Tranquil Jellyfish
23
This pediatric office was inspired by the jellyfish. Using bright colors and different patterns and textures that are often seen in the sea, my goal was to create a fun environment for kids who are coming to this pediatric office. Doctors offices can be frightening for a lot of children so being able to make the environment fun can help ease their fears.

Concept: Direction Refraction of Light This sustainable cottage was inspired by the shape and light reecting ability of a prism. It features large open windows which allow for the perfect amount of daylight in order to use less articial lighting during the day. Blinds are used to control the amount of daylighting and add privacy to the home. Other sustainable features in the cottage include; a toilet/sink combination which allows for minimal water use, LED lighting which can be controlled by a smartphone, a wood burning replace and it uses solar energy to power the home along with many other eco-friendly features. This project was done as a group project in collaboration with Moranda Romanishan
