title:Reception Desk

info:Simple, contemporary and functional are the three words that best describe this furniture model, a design mentality that I have had throughout many of my designs. I believe that an attractive reception desk would give a positive impression within its environment. I believe that basswood and acrylic have the ability to demonstrate the potential beauty of this furniture.

title:UCD Design Building Renovation

info:Remodeled 16,000 square feet UC Davis design building. There is an open space flowing from the top floor to the bottom, which in turn allows for inspiration to circulate throughout the building. A sense of community between students and faculty is generated by outdoor balconies. The faculty offices and meeting room areas are located on the top floor, allowing more space for students, encouraging focus. Technolgies in place include a wireless network. The backside of the building contains a large indoor balcony, the area gives the illusion of a design world, and the possibilities for one's ideas and designs to become infinite.
