Graphic Design Office

This is my newest project. The problem was to design a graphic design office in an existing building on the Gonzaga campus. The columns were to remain in place, as well as the windows. After doing some research on the modern office, I decided to focus my design on the use of daylighting. I also researched the presence of nature and the workplace and how we as humans seek out two kinds of environments- prospect and refuge. The idea of prospect and refuge became my concept. Prospect being the area where we go to take a break, it has a view and offers relief. The refuge is a more private space where we go to be alone and work.

IDEC Posters



  

IDEC Process work


For the IDEC competition the problem was designing a community health center. My group chose to focus on helping people with substance abuse and physical abuse problems. We felt that the lotus flower symbolized renewal and began with that as our inspiration.
