2. Rendered Suite and Bar Elevation
The images on this page show some of the design
development work on the Bowling Green Baseball Stadium,
a minor league stadium in Kentucky. My job on this project
was to draw elevations in AutoCad and render the elevations
in Photoshop. I also helped design the back bar in the suite
area, drew the tile floor pattern in the entry lobby, and worked
on some basic construction drawings.

3. One of the projects I worked on while interning at
DLR Group was designing a floor pattern for Piper High
School located in Kansas City, Kansas. I carried this project
through the initial sketching and design development phase
to construction drawings. I also created a rendered floor
pattern plan to present to the clients. I enjoyed working on
this project because I was able to have creative freedom
and experience the process from beginning to end.

4. Green Week Recycling Center and Graphics
During DLR Group’s Green Week, employees were divided into
three teams, and each team was responsible for designing something
“green” that would benefit the company and its employees. My team de-
signed an in-house recycling center that was built from environmentally
friendly products. My task was to design and build conceptual models of
the recycling center in SketchUp.
As part of Green Week, DLR Group hosted a Green Week Open
House for clients and representatives in the area. I worked on a team
to develop the graphics on the invitations, posters, and flyers for this
event.

6. Stretch Children’s Hybrid Store
Floor Plan
In designing this children’s hybrid store, I became much more
knowledgeable about designing a retail environment as well as learned a
great deal about building codes. This store is called a hybrid store because
it combines the selling of merchandise along with five different activity areas
for children which include art, music, discovery, pretend, and cooking. After
several revisions, I decided on a final concept for the store as well as the
store name, STRETCH. I chose this name because it reflects the store’s
concept of being a fun place for kids to play while also “stretching” their
minds and imagination.
The criteria required for this project included creating a fixture plan,
drawing elevations and perspectives, choosing materials and finishes, build-
ing a mass model, custom designing floor and wall fixtures, and creating a
ceiling plan. This project was completed in three phases over the course of
Interior Perspective
one semester.

8. The Office of University Relations at the University of Kansas
The purpose of this project was to create an inspiring, creative
work environment while practicing sustainable design for the Office of Uni-
versity Relations (OUR). The OUR is housed in an older building on cam-
pus and needed to be redesigned and refurbished to better accomodate
the office’s needs and better project their image.
To begin this project, my partner and I interviewed the employees
of the OUR and made several visits to the office to better understand the
needs and wants of the employees and the positive and negative attributes
of the building. After carefully analyzing the information we obtained, we
began blocking the different departments of the OUR to meet adjacency
requirements and departmental needs. Once the locations of the depart-
ments were finalized, my partner and I began choosing sustainable fix-
tures, furniture, and finishes. In-depth research and practical knowledge
of systems furniture was a key component of this project.

11. Drawings of The Old Westbury House by Richard Meier
The five drawings on this page were submitted as a final project
for my Visual Presentation class. The assignment was to represent with
drawings a house designed by Richard Meier. Meier designs his houses
to be “white boxes” and avoids using warm colors, textured surfaces,
and natural materials. As part of the assignment, I had to add color and
texture to my drawings to create a more comforting interior environment.
I had to use the techniques I learned throughout the semester-long class
and refine my drawing skills to create these final drawings.

12. Wood Stool Design
The guidelines for this assignment were very simple: to create
a stool from wood and/or metal. The criteria or components that made
a stool was decided by each student. The overall objective of the pro-
ject was to create something different than the stereotypical commeri-
cal stool that utilized different joint techniques. The stool I created was
inspired by architecture and simple geometric shapes. I incorporated
interesting negative spaces in the piece and added nice finishing details
such as a “floating” top and a joint connection that pierces through the
bottom shelf.
