PLASTIC wood stadium seats were the focus of my “40 HOUR RENDERING” which was just one of the skills projects we worked on our first year in design school.

STAIRS we found on campus were carefully documented and then rendered in many ways to show different characteristics.

CREATING cubes out of planes, volumes, and lines helped us dicover space in different ways.

“100=1” challenged us to create something completely in and of itself.

BUILDING blocks we imagined and created were put together in more space-creating exercises.

8 FOOT WALLS were created to mirror the design of a space in our school that is notorious for having no 90 degree angles.

Music Hall

OVER-THE-RHINE is known for being an unsafe part of our city so we were tasked with evaluating design flaws in the neihborhood. As you can see here, I focused on alley ways that caused an unsettling feeling for visitors.

ONE day I would love to create textiles of my own. This one was created with pastels manipulated in Photoshop.

DESIGNING a literary center was the first chance we had at getting really involved with interior and architectural design.

USING revit and photoshop, realistic renderings could be achieved.

ATTENTION to detail was important in creating a personal space for the author living in the space.

RESIDENTIAL studio was really interesting when one of our classmates was our “clent”. We were asked to convert an old brewery in Over-The-Rhine to their future home.

TREND FORECASTING was an extensive research project to learn what trends to utilize in our projects. this interactive table was my take on the the “next big thing”
