Design Philosophy

I am a junior interior design major at Washington State University. I have always been interested in design. I enjoy creating abstract and organized spaces. Figuring out corrections to problems through design is a process I believe is fundamental. When I design I want to meet the needs of a client in a creative way. I like to find multiple solutions to a problem to hear opinions to consider a different approach. I think design should have meaning, and that is what I strive to tell in my designs.

Depot Final Project

These are my final boards for my depot project. The Northern Pacific Depot is a train depot in downtown Pullman, Wa that I did an adaptive reuse of. The depot will contain a residence, a studio, and a gallery for the artist. I completed 4 perspectives, one of the gallery lobby, gallery space, studio, and the great room of the residence. I chose materials for these spaces as well. I also completed elevations and sections throughout the depot. There are demolition and egress floor plans that I was new to. The furniture floor plan is also repeated in the final model. My process board shows a bit of the process throughout the project. I chose to use the bright yellow for the boards because it was the color I started with in my parti. I also applied my textile pattern to the background of my posters in gloss black. It does blend with the matte black background but adds to the presentation. From this project I learned more about technical drawings and codes that go along with them. I would say my concept was developed well through the process of finding an inspiration object and working with 2D and 3D abstractions to then develop into the depot design.
