The document summarizes Christina LaRosa's design portfolio from projects in 2015 and 2014. In 2015, as part of a team, she redesigned an existing government services center to transform it into a more human-scaled building with live/work spaces, housing, and a new residence cafe. In 2014, for a corporate office design project, she drew inspiration from the structure of suits to create a sophisticated furniture design company headquarters, incorporating elements like pockets, folds, and seams into the architectural features.

- 20. Experience Related Projects: Central High School, Enfield High School, Berlin High School This Co-op taught me various design-related tasks including casework details, floor pattern plans, interior elevations, annotating drawings, finish schedules & legends, 3-d modeling using sketchup, 3-d modeling using revit and much more! Note: I drew and/or modeled each casework detail + interior elevation. I then added all annotations and dimensions as required to each sheet. Floor Pattern Floor Pattern

- 24. Objective Project Name: Bachelor Pad As I entered the luxury apartment in Boston, I noticed one very important aspect was missing...A view. Using Boston’s skyline at night as a concept, I’ve created a space that enhances the entertainment and tech-savy aspect of the theoretical male client presented as well as incorporated the aspects of the luxurious view. When con- structing this space, I focused on the voids between buildings, the sleek strips of light emitting from windows as well as the reflections present on the water. In addi- tion, I incorporated the varying building heights and rectilinear forms.

- 31. Objective Project Name: Wentworth Library The conditions of Wentworth’s library influenced my decision to create a space that enhances those existing conditions while incorporating details that emulate books. Each area in the space is placed in accordance to the ceiling grid and defined by the ceiling plane and flooring ma- terial. In addition, each space enhances the character of a book’s placement and stacking. Bubble Diagram Mezzanine Zoning First Floor Zoning Mezzanine Circulation First Floor Circulation

Through the study of Paris’ night scene, I have created a space that reflects the lighting and colors of Paris’ romantic night.
