Corporate Headquarters
Concept Statement
ReadyMade magazine takes everyday objects and turn
them into useful items you can use in your home. The
concept for their corporate office takes cues from
Marcel Duchamp’s definition of Ready Made and his
controversial art work “The Fountain” which is a simple
manufactured and mass produced item. The floor plan
reflects a factory by laying out each department along a Floor Plan
straight corridor that emphasizes the process of the
making of the magazine.

Hotel Restaurant- Group Project
Concept Statement
By using the idea of modern elegance for our space, we use
gracefully curved pathways and sophisticated materials to
pull people into the space. This option would open the
space up and purposefully circulate people to their
seats, to gather and enjoy each others company. The
reception area would set the tone with stylish elements
such as comfortable seating, relaxing colors and curved
desk directing you into the space.

Our dorm room looks to the traditions of modern Danish Dorm Room: Group Project
design by creating a sleek and multifunctional space.
This space will perform as a sleeping, study and social unit.
In addition it will give each of the roommates a sense of
privacy when needed. Sustainability will be the foundation
of this room by reusing some of the existing built in
furniture as well as employing green fabrics, finishes and
appliances. Energy efficiency will be addressed through the
examination and exploration of water usage, lighting
efficiency, and recycled materials. The redesign of this
dorm room will set the tone for future dorm rooms by
setting an example of a modern multifunctional space that
embraces sustainable design.

Office Environment-Group Project
Concept Statement
A circuit board provided a roadmap to the design of this
office environment, strong lines extenuate pathways to
assist in communication and collaboration between
divisions. Glass office fronts and workstations along the
window wall allow daylight to penetrate the space. Using
natural daylight helps to create a more open and
collaborative work environment that reflects the firms
values. The space includes a variety of team areas, private
offices, conference rooms, as well as relaxing stations to
help reduce stress among employees. Circulation
throughout the space enhances teamwork and increases
productivity to provide solutions that enhance
efficiency, improve client services, and enable the
company to push the envelope in development of software
products and technical services. .
