HOSPITALITY DESIGN
AutoCAD MODELING & RENDERING
The Scarlet Hotel was my final project in 3D AutoCAD. This hotel is located in Lubbock, Texas in the Overton
Park Area. The hotel’s design brings a big city feel to the small college city of Lubbock, as its design stays
away from the traditional west Texas feel of the surrounding community. The dark, metallic color palette
used throughout the hotel’s interior will help produce a contemporary, industrial interior design look. To
balance the bold colors a minimalistic approach was taken in the furniture selection. Banded lights were
placed in multiple areas of the hotel to attract attention to important spaces and create an intimate
atmosphere.

LAW FIRM
HAND DRAWING & RENDERINGS
Through research, learned how to
interpret the essence of the style
of 20th century designers George
Nakashima and Isamu Noguchi, and
apply it to a small Law Firm office
located in downtown Dallas, TX. The
reception area and conference
room incorporated furniture by
Noguchi and Nakashima. The lighter
finishes, exposed wood, and shoji
screen helped strengthen the style of
the two designers.

AutoCAD Modeling &
VIGNETTE
This was the first project in 3D AutoCAD, and we were required to build each piece, without using
manufacturer built drawings. Project consisted of creating a showroom vignette based on the furniture
designs of Barbara Barry. Barbara Barry has a refined style consisting of lush interiors. The space gives a sense
of luxury, comfort, and ease. The bold colors were introduced to produce a sense of uniqueness.

CORPORATE DESIGN
HAND DRAWING & RENDERINGS
Designing this corporate office was the first project I was presented
with in the hand rendering studio. We were required to use colored
paper and use markers and colored pencil as little as possible. The
project statement required creating a contemporary small office
space consisting of an executive’s office and a conference area.
Design was presented by using two-point perspective studies, hand
drawn and hand rendered.

The Voyage Retirement
Community is centered
on the idea of anchoring
the heart in order to
reinvent the home for
aging seniors. Following
precedents set by the
Greenhouse model, four
homes each housing
fifteen residents allow
for flexibility for residents
with varying capacities
through flexible
furniture arrangement
and specialized care
provided by staff
dedicated to a specific
home. By unifying
residents and staff in
a family home setting,
nurses, aids, and
residents alike will be
14. empowered to make
decisions concerning
household matters and
activities. The residential
setting of the homes
will create an inviting
atmosphere for friends
and family. An on-site
community center, with
a small town main street
atmosphere, will invite
the community at large
on to the site to enjoy
an afternoon in the
peaceful environment.

A COLLABORATIVE GROUP
MIXED MEDIUMS
“The designer’s imagination is stretched to find as many creative alternatives as possible that can be generated to solve
the given problems. These alternatives are then sketched or recorded to build a series of different ways the problem can
be resolved. Creative designers force themselves to look at the problem from many different viewpoints, attempting to
resolve those into one strong solution.”
-(R .Kilmer & O. Kilmer, 1992)
Through the collaboration design class, we were teamed up with architecture and
landscape architecture students to reinvent an old warehouse site in Boston, MA.
Included on the site is office space, event space, interactive learning gardens
and space for the already existing weekly art show. Because of the historical area
where the building is located, we wanted to keep an industrial feel on the interior
of the building, but create an oasis on the exterior to create an escape from the
surrounding city. To execute this project we used AutoCAD, Rhino, Revit, Illustrator,
and Photoshop.

DEAN’S & RENDERINGS
HAND DRAWING
OFFICE
The project statement required the remodel of the dean’s office at Texas Tech University.
The office was to be modeled on an open plan concept limiting the use of permanent
walls. The office layout needed to consist of the dean’s area with a small meeting area, a
reception area, graduate student space, four staff desks and two conference rooms. It was
built up on a raised flooring system that created a sustainable space with easy access to
electricity, data and internet. The design of this space paved way for easy manipulation in
case there was a need for change or growth. The purpose of this project was to learn how
to produce quick sketches by rendering each perspective in an hour or less.

CONSTRUCTION
AutoCAD & ILLUSTRATOR
Going back to the origin of construction is where the concept of the design came for
the task of constructing a screen wall for a section of a building and relating it back to
the aesthetics of the exterior walls. In order to accomplish this, rebar was used as the
screen wall to relate to the actual form ties used in concrete construction. The rebar
placement was then directly related back to the placement of form ties in the concrete
along with the bolts connecting the cladding to the steel stud wall which simulates
form ties as well. The reveals in the concrete were staggered along the vertical access
to give the building a sense of height. At each of the reveal heights the orientation of
the corrugated cladding wall changes in order to provide a sense of unity. Another
design element chosen was to change the orientation of the rebar structure at each
of the reveal heights as well. This provided the screen with more orientation to each
of the building’s exterior walls. The entire exterior screen wall section of the building
encompassed the appreciation of details within the construction while relating back to
each other and providing a sense of wholeness.
