This project aimed to create a fluid, interconnected workspace reflecting contemporary work practices, encouraging interaction through an integrated library, organic forms, and a sculptural staircase, while blending functionality with cultural and aesthetic elements. The work was entered into the competition as a finalist on behalf of my university.

The project is an interior design concept for a Le Labo boutique inspired by a "Library of Memories." The space invites visitors to explore fragrances through alcoves, tactile interaction, and personalized experiences. With vintage-inspired furnishings, soft lighting, and the innovative "Chroniscroll," the design evokes nostalgia. Workshops and sensory experiences enhance the journey, blending industrial design with classic French elements to create a sophisticated, immersive atmosphere.

Produced as part of a Building Construction course, this set documents the transformation of an existing home through detailed plans and visualizations. Includes the original floor plan, demolition plan, and final renovated layout, along with elevations, furniture layouts, finish plans, and photorealistic renders. Demonstrates proficiency in residential drafting, space planning, and construction documentation.

The goal for this project was to restore a split-level, midcentury modern home in a historic neighborhood in Dallas, TX to it’s original style while incorporating the needs of the occupant family who wish it to be their forever home. A designated structural wall must remain in place between the existing kitchen and dining room.

A nature-inspired dermatology and cosmetic surgery clinic in San Marcos, blending advanced medical care with a calming, hospitality-driven environment. The design integrates biophilic elements, intuitive wayfinding, and locally influenced materials to enhance patient comfort, support staff efficiency, and reflect the community’s character while delivering state-of-the-art treatments. The work shown here is part of my contribution to the project, featuring both schematic and design development progress.
