LAUREN CLINGMAN

INTERIOR DESIGN

about me

My name is Lauren Clingman, and I’m a fourth-year Interior Design student at Texas Tech University. I chose this career path because I believe every space has the potential to be more than just functional. a space can be thoughtfully renewed, emotionally engaging, and deeply impactful. My background in visual art and early involvement in design projects helped me cultivate a strong foundation in creative problem-solving, spatial awareness, and an eye for detail. These experiences continue to shape my design approach and inspire my work.

I’m committed to mastering the principles of interior design through a combination of academic excellence, hands-on studio work, and active engagement within the design community. As the Special Events Coordinator for the ASID student chapter, I’ve had the opportunity to lead the planning of the annual West Texas Design Expo—an event that fosters collaboration between students and industry professionals. This role has deepened my understanding of the professional design world and strengthened my organizational and leadership skills. I’m excited to continue growing as a designer and contributing meaningfully to the future of the built environment.
