B. Interior Architecture

!

hi there

I am an interior architecture graduate from the University of Oregon who graduated Summa Cum Laude. I accelerated my degree and also gained double minors in Architecture and Sustainable Business. As I enter my professional career, everything I have learnt these past four years has aided in creating the designer I am today. As a global person myself, being Tahitian-British-American and growing up in Germany (Bremen + Kiel), Spain (Jávea + Mallorca), and the Netherlands (Eindhoven), I am always seeking new ways to incorporate the local culture within my designs. I like to use my international knowledge to help me create the spaces I design. I was a professional show jumper (horse rider) for Team USA throughout all of high school and middle school. I competed internationally and learnt how to work in a team. It also made me very disciplined and taught me how to manage my time. I am a highly passionate designer who seeks to shape the lives of people through spatial design. Designing not only the interior, but all aspects of the design, because design does not only start with the interior, it starts when one first steps foot onto the property. As Jan Gehl best said, the most important scale is the human scale.

humans.

I am just a human who designs for other humans.

Respectful Restoration

Weaving in Tradition

Nature as Healer

Finding beauty in the rustic, the imperfect, and the patina. Looking to the site for material choice, color selection, and landscape.

The importance of culture and heritage and the seamless fluidity of a hybrid culture between the old and new.

Native landscapes and outdoor rooms are woven throughout the site to provide a deeper connection to nature.

This project also included designing with Spanish building code and fire codes in mind.

You follow a winding path to the main hotel. Once entering you are welcomed by the welcome lobby with a wide opening to the courtyard. This is the gathering hearth where you will take a pause before moving to your next activity. From here you can choose to go to the

welcome bar, pottery classes, restaurant, your room or explore the surrounding landscapes. The structure utilizes the natural historic style with found rocks and sandstone from the surrounding landscape along with river rock for the flooring in the courtyard.


main hotel | ground floor

The lobby serves as a threshold between the landscape and the retreat, creating a moment of pause, orientation, and calm. Filtered light and framed views establish a welcoming first impression.

Layered lighting combines indirect illumination, filtered daylight, and warm accents to enhance materiality and guide movement naturally through the lobby.

The material palette draws from Mallorca’s heritage through natural stone, handcrafted ceramics, and corten steel accents. These materials connect guests to local craftsmanship and the surrounding landscape.

Acoustic treatments soften ambient noise and create a calm environment. Subtle sounds and controlled reverberation help establish the restorative character of the retreat.

The central courtyard serves as a gathering point for social interaction but also as a source of climate control. Son Fortuny follows the Spanish culture of leaving windows open to allow air to circulate. This helps mitigate the temperature of the space throughout all seasons.

alchemy year: 2024 professor: Kyuho Ahn location: Eugene, OR, USA

This project is a refurbishment of a historical 1960s site. In this design, an addition was added to return it back to the former structures that have been removed. Alchemy is a restaurant that is a destination not just for your tastebuds, but all your

other senses. It creates the feeling of being grounded in a tree and being within a field of winding trees. The added structure was created to resemble a tree, and all fixtures, materials, and details were also selected to follow this tree motif design.

RCP & LIGHTING STRATEGY The beams are meant to emulate tree branches. The skylights emphasize this tree-like atmosphere as they cast leaf-like shadows. The pendant lights that come from the ceiling, are meant to appear like birds nests floating in the trees. Overall, this RCP is meant to create an ambient tree experience.

Wood is an important aspect of this design not only for the tree motif but as a natural element. Both cultures have a history a fine craftsmanship with this material. Thus paying homage to it not only through the structure but also the branding, will further emphasize the importance of this material.

svæve year: 2025 professor: Erling Christoffersen & Dögg Guðmundsdóttir location: Copenhagen, DK

“Svæve” means to float. This chair defies gravity by “floating” both in its structure and also in its seat. The stretchers curve and are inset into the seat, creating the illusion that both the seat and back a floating away from the main structure.

This was constructed with ash wood and the plywood for the seat and back were made by hand by layering 3 ply to make 9 ply. The curve was also done by placing the ply on a mold and securing it with a ratchet crank.

All drawings were done by hand and at 1 to 1 scale. The construction of this piece was done through joinery and dominos. No hardware was used during construction.

The chair tapers from the bottom to the top getting thinner the higher it goes. This makes it feel solid on the ground, and lighter as you rise up. It also is done this way because it follows not only the appearance but the structural needs.


All lines run parallel to each other. The seat and back follow the exact line of the chair structure, one inch apart to reinforce the floating idea and create a balance. The width and taper of the back and seat panels also run parallel to the taper of the structure below and follow each other’s lines to create continuity between seat and back.

Cascadia is a ground up housing project in We worked as a team of three with a developing neighbourhood in Barcelona, someone working on the urban space and Spain. another on the structure. This project focuses on fostering connections across generations to satisfy people’s feelings of belonging, family and sense of purpose within the community.

As this was a group project, I was in charge of designing all the interior spaces: the units, the kindergarten, the podium level, and the community spaces.

The structure of the building was done in a way to maximize the amount of housing we would be able to provide, whilst still complying with boundry laws. This is how the cascade structure came to be. It ensures every unit and surrounding buildings receive at least 1 hour of sunlight and also connects the street to the building encouraging connection. There are 177 units with the majority being 3 bedroom units. Others have 2 bedrooms and others have 1 bedroom units being provided in the corner intercept. All units have balconies to encourage interaction with neighbours, the podium level, and/or the street. It also allows for people to have access to their own personal green spaces.

Each unit follows a 3m x 3m grid. Within this grid is a modular wall unit. As an intergenerational housing complex needs change, people also need change. Children will move out, grandparents will move in. This modular wall adapts the space to the needs of the family throughout generations, accomodating to their lifetime needs.

There are 9m x 9m units located on the southside of the building to allow for a single loaded corridor and to open space towards the end of the corridor for larger units. These units also have a modular wall system that utilizes folding acoridan walls to allow for space change.

This adaptability of spaces allows for a multitude of spatial configurations that can be seen in the plans to the right. The use of a green room surrounded by folding walls allows for the outdoors to expand the interior space when need be.


nasa year: 2024 professor: Mark Gillem location: Houston, TX, USA offered internship by heads of planning at NASA

This NASA project is an individual ground architectural project of a 100 000 sq. ft. building that features a training facility, research labs, admin, and astronaut housing. This was done in 9 weeks hence why there is a lot of empty space as it was not necessary to fill the spaces, only create the extensive plan and programming for all elements of the space.

It is located on the JSC NASA facility in Houston, Texas. This site has strict requirements to not outshine the other historic buildings such as Mission Control. In order to do that, patterns were used to not only meet aesthetic requirements, but also sustainability requirements.

Natural air cooling is important as Houston has a hot climate and thus having the ability to self-cool through underfloor air distributions, cross ventilation, and passive cooling through the atrium space, minimizes the need for electrical resources.

The grand courtyard on the ground floor has an ephemeral lake. This lake will be filled according to the rainfall. This acts as a water capturing system that also creates a beautiful landscape for the employees to enjoy.

The majority of the roof is a green roof, whether that be an extensive praire system above the training wing, or the intensive courtyard gardens found in the housing area. This reduces the water runoff, reduces the temperature, reduces energy consumption, and creates a nice space for users to interact with.

The use of narrow wings to gain light from two sides minimizes the neccesity for electrical lighting. Although the building is highly glazed, the use of deep overhangs minimizes the heat exposure and solar glare for the interior spaces.
