Revit Enscape Illustrator Photoshop concept

This adaptive reuse project tasked students within the studio course to research, design, and adhere The Living Building Challenge Measures.

Utilizing the Solar House (an existing and vacant building) and the CSUS Arboretum, while considering the university’s community members, a new learning arts and sculpture gallery + park was designed and implemented on site. Through program, critical materiality, building construction, and satellite locations, I was able to communicate how the newly designed Solar House welcomes Sac State’s community members, users, and friends while also standing within The Living Building Challenge’s criteria to sit as a living building.

AutoCAD Rhino 6 Illustrator Photoshop

concept

Students within the course demonstrate their design through AutoCAD and their desired rendering applications; Rhino 6, Enscape, Illustrator and Photoshop. Working within a historical building site in Downtown Sacramento, the Sacramento Valley Station is transformed into a new cultural location.

My design for the Sacramento Valley Station was to implement a museum and sculpture garden on the site. Fusing dramatic gallery halls with traditional museum program and an entry way that acts as art itself. The project serves the community and brings new life to the 1920s Neo-Renaissance building.

i n tr od u c ti on The next works showcase my visual and graphic capabilities. Since the completion of these next two examples, I have perfected and discovered a graphic style of my own while at Sacramento State. My visual skills will be ever-changing, but the Home and Pavilion projects represent my best visual and graphic techniques that I am most proud to highlight.

The HOME Project stands as the final design assignment within the Interior Design Graphics II course. Students within the course begin their introduction to Autodesk Revit software while utilizing previous knowledge of rendering applications such as Adobe Photoshop and Enscape Freedom to design and visually express what “home” may look like, this project displays the skills and techniques learned within my first semester using Revit. Final renderings were finished out through Adobe Photoshop and Enscape.

Rhino 6 Enscape Illustrator

concept

Shown are the final deliverables for the final project within the Interior Design Graphics I course. Within the course students are introduced to Rhino 6 modeling and graphics. Alongside 3D modeling, Enscape and Adobe Illustrator were utilized to visually explain the final design.

The Pavilion Project helped execute the skills learned throughout the semester within Rhino 3D Modeling. My vision for the design was to establish a meeting place within an urban setting. Inspired by organic forms and in contrast with steel materiality.

i n tr od u c ti on Within this section of the portfolio are drawings completed within the early stages of the BFA Interior Architecture program at Sacramento State. Both projects begin with cardboard models and are then dimensioned for hand-drawings. Two-point perspective and axonometric drawings and techniques are taught within the course as seen in the final deliverables.
