Timepiece Students were assigned to
consider how you perceive
and visualize time; how you
use time in your daily life;
and what tools humans use
to measure and mark time,
from there we re-imagine
and design a
portable or wearable
timekeeping device.
The Dumbottle is a weighted
bottle to imitate the ef fects
of a dumbbell while also
configuring how much water
a person should drink in
a day with a silicone band
that also acts as a hidden
storage compartment for
keys, identif ication and
credit cards.

Toy DesignWe were assigned to design a children’s toy that not only was easy to play with, but that also had an educational purpose.
In beginning research the main focus was on nutrition and physical activity. The main concept is a life size board game, adding physical activity to the game as well as getting the children interested in learning about nutrition.
With that, the f inal product is an indoor/outdoor board game with a hectahedron die that will give them questions about the food pyramid as well as silicon tiles that show dif ferent activities when they land on that cer tain tile.

Lighting DesignFor the final project of our second year we were assigned to design lighting device for a use of our choosing,
With my device I wanted something that can help with growing vegetables during the winter season. In looking at research I found LED grow light that use red UV rays to help vegetable grow indoors.
With the actual design there needed to be a natural essence in the shape, hence the curves. The curves also acts as a reflector for the light wands to have better dispersion.
With the light wand they can be used within the vessel or taken out and put into other potting plants. This device will be helpful when needing fresh food year round.

Yoga KitIn my final year we had to
also design a product that
can be used to help with
wounded warriors and their
treatments needed.
In looking at various
treatments, the one that
was most helpful for
soldiers suffering from Post
Traumatic Stress Disorder
(PTSD) was yoga
and meditation.
With this product it is a two
part system 1.) bands that
go on your wrists, knees,
and head to help with the
alignment of the poses.
2.) A pressure sensitive
mat to help with balance.
By combining these two it
creates a more independent
yoga experience.

Her man Miller Proj ectFor this group project
we designed a student
workspace/workstation
to be installed in a design
office/studio. This allows a
professional distance learner
to attend virtual lectures,
critiques, and classes
remotely and interact with on-
campus professors
and students.
Our final product we used
the abstract idea of a city to
form a workstation. Where
the primary space is the
heart or main-street of the
city, secondary space is the
subway transporting ideas,
and tertiary spaces are
neighboring communities
or utilities.

Woo dshop For our Woodshop class
we had three major projects
we worked on; a box, lathe,
and container projects. With
these projects it enhances
our skil ls in different types
of machinery as well as
providing creativity while
doing hands on work.
In our final project we had to
design a piece that contained
something we choose
within 1,000 cubic inches.
For my piece I decided to
contain music and made an
IPhone docking station out
of air dried walnut. With this
project Using finger joints to
accentuate the edges and
lathed a speaker make it a
unique piece.

Knock Dow n DesignIn beginning graduate
school our woodshop II
class assigned us the
knock down design project.
We were asked to pick a
design style and design
three piece furniture set that
could easily be taken apart
in a specified UPS box.
From our three design we
had to pick one and make
an actual prototype.
The Booma office set is
a compilation of a roll top
secretary desk, bookcase,
and floor lamp shelving unit.
The floor lamp shelving
unit was selected to be
prototyped and is stil l
under production.

In our History of Furniture class, we were assigned to identify an historically significant piece of furniture and redesign a piece of contemporary furniture that transforms and transports the attributes and elements through time to the present.
The original piece is know as the Rohlfs Rocker designed by American Arts & Crafts furniture
In transforming this piece creating a statement through the use of the sides were key. While the original piece had a Chinese symbol for longevity the symbol on the side represents Earth. Other aspects include the use of soft upholstery and pegged tenon pay homage to the Arts & Crafts Movement.

The rocker on the left was
something that I found in
my basement that belonged
to my great grandmother.
I sanded it down to a
smoother surface and
applied a dark stain, then
I found a light fabric with
pastel-like petals that I
upholstered to the seat
and back.
The rocker on the right was a personal project while at an internship in Denver, CO. It was serendipitous find in a vintage shop. This project was easier since I had a guide with the previous upholstery on how the piece should work. Major changes besides the fabric was sanding it down to put a new coat of paint on the frame as well as adding better padding for comfort.

“Silhou ett e” Massage Chair
In my final year of woodshop
we were to design any piece
of furniture for ourselves,
basically giving use entire
freedom of design.
Within original research
the main goal was to have
a sense of duality. Also,
when looking at the piece
as my own I wanted to
make something that can
be beneficial for my friends
as well as myself. In looking
through precedent I wanted
to create something simple,
but elegant like the reading
writing chair.
Thus I decided to create
a massage chair that was
elegant to use when giving
my friends a massage, but
something functional that I
could use when I needed to
sit and relax.

DIS Study AbroadIn the summer of 2014
I had studied abroad in
Copenhagen, Denmark, at
the Danish Institute of Study
Abroad where I had spent
the whole summer learning
about furniture design and
near the end we built our
own chair that represented
Scandinavian design.
It was a wonderful
experience that opened my
eyes in experiencing new
cultures as well as new
approaches to
furniture design.
My final product is made
from solid maple for the
frame and red paracorde
for the webbing. I was
inspired by a corset with the
delicate weaving and a very
stuctured frame. Bringing to
life what I have named: the
sensual chair.

Exhibit DesignIn our second year we were
to design an interactive
‘near environment’ museum
exhibit display as a
theoretical component for
a ‘phase 2’ extension of
an exhibition at the Flint
Hills Discovery Center in
Manhattan, Kansas.
In the ‘phase 2’ portion it is
slated to focus on ‘forces’
that shaped the Manhattan,
KS area from 1917
to 1963.
This design focuses on
Kansas State University
during the 1920s. I sought
out help at the Kansas
State Historic Costume and
Textile Museum where they
prescribed a 1920s school
dress (seen on the right).
These artifacts created an
eye-catching design while
also using minimal space.

Concept: Concept: During the period 1917-1929 there is boom in Greek life, as well as a scandal about bloomer checks that made national news. With such an attention getting decade the design showed no less. By having eye catching graphic panels and memorable interactive boards helps to transport the visitor into the 1920s as a student at K.S.A.C.
Grapic panels provide as an attention getting device with photos from the Royal Purple during 1925-1929
With such a major growth in Greek Aff airs this board helps futher explain how K.S.A.C gained so many fraternities and soroities during that time.
Th e touch screen interactive allows the visitor to look at diff erent fraternities and soroities and learn what the are about as well as looking through the Royal Purple to see brother and sisters of the past.
Th e board discusses the scandal of the bloomer checks and how the dean of women set a standard of appropiateness.
Th e Interactive provides people with expressing their opinion on the matter with adjusting the fi gure to what they think is appropriate, giving visitors a chance to open up about the topic of modesty.

Restaur antThis was an international
student design competition
presented by the Retail
Design Institute. We were
given a proposal for an
American fare restaurant.
Along with the RFP our
professor wanted us to also
focus on branding
and signage.
The design concept was
an open floor plan creates
community dining and
a chance to mingle with
other customers. It also
showcases certain areas
by using material changes
to emphasize that particular
area. In order to be
sustainable we provide a
variety of mason jar sizes to
store our food.

Cor por ate Space PlanningFor this first project of our
fourth year we were asked
to design an office space
for an all natural pet food
company. Their goals for
the space were to create
an inviting space for staff
and guest. Ideally, spaces
should be designed for the
tasks performed in
each department.
The overall goal of this
project was to gain
awareness in work and
social dynamics in the early
process stages
of programming.

Digital Media OfficeIn this design project
we had to renovate a
warehouse into a two-story
office space for a digital
media company.
In choosing a location
I focused on the digital
aspect in finding future
employees in the
technology related field,
Raleigh, NC was the
perfect choice.
In designing the space, the
creation of a natural and
open space is seen in the
use of very neutral colors
and facade materials. With
pops of color in designated
spaces it enhances certain
areas, providing focused
area for people to work.

Officescapes Inter nshipFrom January to May of 2014
I was in Denver, Colorado
for an internship with a firm
called Officescapes. The
firm sells high end office
furniture from manufacturers
(i.e. Steelcase, Turnstone,
and Knoll). I worked within
the design team and helped
with schematic design and
material choices.
The majority of the work
I had done while at this
internship was renderings for
clients, along with organizing
materials, and being apart of
design meetings and lunch
and learns, gaining new
knowledge of new products
available from manufacturers.

Wou nded Warr ior For our Capstone studio in my final year we had to design a rehabilitation facility for wounded warriors.
In creating this facility there was extensive research done on various ailments such as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) then finding the appropriate treatments.
From the research there was a focus on anti-stigma within the facility and making it have a sense of a community center rather than a hospital.
The concept for the facility is based on chakra and how the balance of the human body can be transferred into the building. In doing so it creates an inviting environment for soldiers nervous about getting treatment.
