About Me

My name is Paige Desrocher, and I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Interior Design from Texas Tech University in May 2024. While I’ve always been passionate about art, I initially believed creativity was limited to traditional forms like painting or illustration. Discovering interior design opened my eyes to a new way of expressing creativity through shaping the spaces where people live, work, and connect. Interior design allows me to blend my love for art with my desire to connect with and serve others. I’m passionate about designing spaces that not only reflect each client’s personality and vision but also elevate their everyday experiences. My goal is to create environments that are as functional as they are inspiring— spaces that feel personal, purposeful, and entirely unique. I hope to join a creative, collaborative team that values inclusivity and encourages growth, where I can express my style while meeting clients’ needs.

CONCEPT STATEMENT SECOND FLOOR

The redesign of the HCOA building is inspired by the rugged beauty of the West Texas landscape and the fluidity of curvilinear forms. The concept aims to capture the raw and untamed spirit of West Texas, using a palette of colors that reflect the earthy tones of the desert landscape. Curvilinear forms, inspired by natural elements such as rolling hills, river bends, and windswept dunes, are incorporated into the design to create a sense of flow and continuity. The facade of the building reflects the essence of the Palo Duro Canyon, capturing its grandeur and natural beauty. These organic shapes facilitate smoother circulation, enhance spatial experiences, and foster a connection with nature. The organic architecture of the design opens up a myriad of possibilities for window placements, each offering a unique perspective of the vibrant campus life. This design melds effortlessly with the West Texas landscape, establishing a symbiotic relationship between the constructed form and the raw beauty of the natural surroundings.

ORIGINAL RED BRICK: BUDDY HOLLY CENTER:

Broadway Street’s red brick road have been there since 1982. There has been much debate on removing the bricks but locals feel as though a piece of history would be erased. In the new renovation, the bricks would be preserved and added to the exterior of the buildings.

The exterior design was inspired by the distinctive architecture of the Buddy Holly Center, an iconic landmark in Lubbock, TX.

Known for its unique structural elements and contemporary aesthetic, the center serves as a creative reference point in shaping the modern look of the architecture.
