Outpatient Clinic Final​

2020 ASID South Central Student Competition Bronze Winner in Healthcare, Institutional, and Computer Generated Rendering


In ID 3753: Spring 2019 Studio, the course was designed to have students explore healthcare design and how to design for


primarily outpatient clinics. Students had to make a four module outpatient clinic for whatever type of care they may choose. 

Primary care was chosen for this particular outpatient clinic and was designed with LEAN principles, Evidence Based Design,

and 
FGI design guidelines in mind. The outpatient clinic was designed in the style of a tropical oasis (inspired by the birds of

paradise flower) one would see on vacation to break the stigma of healthcare environments as sterile and stressful

environments.

Pacific Haven

Pacific Haven Homeless Facility is a partner project in Interior Design Studio V for an IDEC Student Design Competition. Pacific

Haven is located in Venice Beach California to encourage the homeless populations that reside on Ocean Drive to come to the

facilities and feel welcomed without judgement. Design features include colors and designs that can be seen in buildings and

businesses in the local area. Collaborative space planning, site and zoning analysis, FF&E specifications, ADA considerations,

and construction documents were created for Pacific Haven. Pacific Haven was one of three chosen in the studio to represent

​the school in ​competition.

Bank of America Lounge

2020 ASID South Central Student Competition Bronze Winner in Hospitality


PAVE hosted a student design competition to create a pop-up banking concept on college campuses for Bank of America. 

Students were assigned partners to charrette and collaborate with each other in order to create a banking concept. I wrote the 

concept statement, made the mood board, chose and ordered the FF&E, organized the booklet in Microsoft PowerPoint, and

​rendered all perspectives in Revit.

St. James Place Renovation
​
This course, ID 3752: Fall 2018 Studio, is organized to develop holistic perspective and approach to thinking and problem

solving, viewing design with awareness and respect for different user groups and the community issues related to it. St. James

Place's Highland Court Area is a memory care facility for elderly patients with Alzheimer's, dementia, and other aging

concerns. Human factors and Alzheimer's research was conducted to design and re-furnish the Highland Court Area to

accommodate their needs. ADA space planning, site visit measuring, and FF&E selection was done to help solve problems in

the space. The inspiration for the space revolved around a Colonial Revival aesthetic to accommodate the regional look of

​Louisiana's interiors in the 1940s/50s.

Fourth Floor Interior Design Office Renovation

In ID 2751: Spring 2018 Studio, students worked on the configuration of their reception office's set up. The Interior Design

Reception office needs a face lift that will 
accommodate pop-up showrooms and represent the department. The organic

f
orms "growing" gives the area dynamic movement. The bases of the form can be moved to bring in large showroom pieces or

smaller ones by putting them on the movable pedestals as ​seen in jewelry stores.
