MARISSA DEWEESE Kansas State University Interior Design
Hello, Hard work has always been a driving force in my life. Growing up on a farm, I learned early on the fulfillment that comes from being hands-on and fully investing in what you do. While my path took me in a different direction, the same foundation of persistence, curiosity, and creativity continues to guide me. From a young age, creativity has been a source of joy, whether painting with my grandmother or creating pep rally videos in high school. I knew I wanted a career that would challenge me and allow me to make a meaningful impact. In high school, I took the Johnson O’Connor aptitude test, which confirmed interior design was where I would thrive. This experience also reinforced my belief that research and knowledge should guide good design decisions. Choosing Kansas State University gave me the opportunity to grow my education while also joining a supportive, collaborative community. At K-State, I discovered how deeply research and design are connected. Courses such as Design and Human Behavior and Lighting Systems revealed how textures, materials, and lighting can shape productivity, mood, and wellbeing. I fell in love with the idea that design is not just about spaces, it’s about shaping and improving experiences. My designs aim to create environments that support positive experiences for all people. In every project, I strive to balance functionality, research, and comfort to leave people with meaningful and memorable experiences.

SITE
Course: Studio V | Fall 2025 Skills Used: Revit, Enscape, InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator, Procreate Location: Los Angeles, California Type: Adaptive Reuse Duration: 10 weeks Description: NEXT, a global law firm with over 70 years of history, is expanding by opening a new Los Angeles office designed to reflect the evolving nature of the legal workplace. As the profession faces rapid digitalization, shifting generational expectations, and the permanence of hybrid work, this project reimagines the traditional law office as a resilient, inclusive, and human-centered environment. The design prioritizes both client and employee experience, diverse work modes, and a culture grounded in mentorship, wellbeing, and connection. Guided by the firms ethos, “rooted in law, driven by legacy”, the Los Angeles workplace becomes a place where teams across global offices can connect meaningfully. This office is a place where professionals feel supported, inspired, and proud to welcome clients. Objective: Plan and design NEXT’s new Los Angeles office, measuring approximately 15,200 USF. Client: The Los Angeles office supports 55 employees across three litigation teams, Labor and Employment, Real Estate, and Intellectual Property, along with essential support staff who manage the firm’s back of house operations. The work place is designed to reflect NEXT’s core values of inclusion, well-being, technological advancement, sustainability, and flexibility, creating an environment that empowers teams to work efficiently while supporting a human-centered culture.
SITE
Los Angeles, California Los Angeles exists within a productive tension, where diversity and creativity drive continuous reinvention. It is a city where tension fuels innovation. 757 S Alameda, ROW DTLA NEXT’s new office will be located in ROW DTLA, a revitalized district known for its culture, industry, and adaptive reuse. Once an industrial hub, the area features warehouse-style architecture and vibrant public spaces that encourage community and collaboration. The site maintains its historic character while embracing modern intervention. This aligns with NEXT’s vision of a workplace grounded in strength, adaptability, and forward progress.

CONCEPT HARMONY THROUGH TENSION The concept is built on harmony through tension, a principle rooted in Greek philosophy that views balance and progress emerging from opposing forces. This relationship reflects the firm’s current state at the intersection of tradition and transformation, especially as it expands to Los Angeles, a city defined by reinvention, innovation, and cultural evolution. Similar tensions shape the legal profession: interpretation and innovation, debate and resolution, advocacy and collaboration. The design expresses harmony through tension by using contrast such as light and shadow, public and private spaces, and industrial structure paired with modern refinement. Together, these elements create a workplace that thrives on dynamic balance.

The workplace is organized into three zones that respond to NEXT’s complex needs, creating a flexible and connected environment that supports today’s employees while adapting to future generations. Just like the legal profession, the design balances the tension between prestige, tradition, and human-centered design. These tensions are unified through harmony to create a forward-looking workplace.
CONCEPT DIAGRAM Harmony through tensions is identified in 3 key categories of the legal workplace where tension creates one unifying harmony.

WHY IT’S IMPORTANT
1 in 31
8-year-old children in the United States are diagnosed with autism.
43%
Location: Topeka, Kansas Type: Pediatrics Healthcare Duration: 10 weeks Description: Located in Topeka, Kansas, this pediatric clinic is designed to support children with autism through an environment embracing neurodiversity and holistic care. The clinic provides more than medical services—it is a place where children feel safe, engaged, and understood. Spaces are created to encourage exploration and comfort, through furniture layouts and sensory-friendly design. The design follows an on-stage/off-stage model, separating staff and patient circulation to reduce stress, improve privacy, and support smoother operations. This system not only enhances patient comfort but also strengthens staff well-being by providing spaces allowing for focus, respite, and collaboration.
of U.S. mental health treatment facilities report providing behavioral health care for children with ASD.
Children with autism are more likely to have unmet health care needs and higher rates of health care dissatisfaction.
More than 1/2 In UK studies, more than half of children with autism and their parents reported difficulty in waiting rooms because of bright lights, noise, smells, and waiting next to strangers, acting as a major barrier to accessing care.
OBJECTIVES Visual and acoustic privacy are essential because eye contact and background noise can be overwhelming for children with autism. Predictable routines help children feel a sense of control and reduce stress that comes with unpredictability. Design spaces to accommodate self-soothing behaviors, providing children with opportunities to regulate their emotions.

CONCEPT STATEMENT

TECHNICAL DRAWINGS
Course: Construction Methods | Spring 2025 Skills Used: Revit, AutoCad, Photoshop Type: Cabinetry Construction Description: Developing technical drawings increased my understanding of construction details and their impact on function and aesthetics. Studying the joints and connections taught me how they shape style and structural integrity. Exploring materiality showed me how different materials perform and interact to achieve a cohesive design vision. Creating detailed drawings also helped strengthen my ability to translate my design decisions from concept to construction.

STUDY TOUR
Course: History of Interior Design | Summer 2025 Skills Used: Hand Sketching Location: United Kingdom & France Duration: 3 weeks Description: This summer, I was grateful for the opportunity to spend three weeks studying in the United Kingdom with the Kansas State University Interior Design Program. The experience offered a firsthand look at English and French history, architecture, and cultural evolution. From the elaborate details of Chatsworth to the intricate beauty of Versailles, I gained a deeper appreciation for how historic motifs continue to shape modern design. Experiencing both historic landmarks and contemporary architecture strengthened my ability t0 recognize design styles and understand the forces that drive their evolution over time.
