The inspiration for the design came from a pencil
drawing of a fox. The organic suspended roof is
constructed from 3from panels and symbolizes a
fox den.
The layout of the store was designed to act as a
canvas for the home décor, allowing for stylized
vignettes to display the product as you would in
your home.

The clients for this bathroom had a busy lifestyle and needed
somewhere to relax and get away from the stress of everyday life. A
warm grey color scheme was chosen with rich colored millwork to add
luxury. The design features a compartmentalized toilet and a staging
area for added efficiency on early mornings. A open shower area with
two shower systems serves for function as well as relaxation. The result is
a perfect balance between form and function.

.solution.
A bulk candy store with large clear tubes to dispense
the candy. Inspiration for the structure came from
traditional rock candy. Wood veneer is used on the
slanted poles to replicate the rock candy stick.
Large crystals are constructed from Chroma 3form
which illuminates at night. The shapes that hold the
candy dispensers protrude out from the crystals. The
back wall is constructed of solid surface with cut-
outs in it to display the candy from the exterior.
FUELed will bring out the child within while adding
visual appeal to the airport.

18. .solution.
A traditional kitchen with an industrial twist. Copper accents were used
to add warmth and interest to the space while a rustic beam cover adds
texture. A cofferd ceiling reinforces the traditional style. Plenty of counter
space with areas to do homework, play games and a message center
ensures this kitchen is not just a space to cook, but a place to dwell.

.solution.
An asian fusion restaurant that blends both western and
asian cuisine together to create a unique and new dining
experience. Inspiration for the space came from the
packaging of an asian pear. The result is a trendy, yet
sophisticated, space where people come during the day
to close business deals and gather after work. The
atmosphere is upbeat with a layout that encourages
people to mix and mingle. Pared is where afternoons
quickly turning into evenings.
