This project features a Contemporary Residential Space. The open living area on the first floor features cool colors and a mix of materials, such as distressed dark wood, glass, stainless steel, grasscloth, and concrete.
The upstairs is warmer, with warm colors and palette that is not as high contrast as the downstairs. This creates a more relaxing sanctuary for winding down, coming together at the end of the day, and for sleep. It is luxurious, chic, and features materials that have a very textural quality, like silk velvets, silks, animal hide, glass, and hand-scraped wood.

Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.

Snake River, Wyoming
This house was
designed to be a
remote getaway set
on the pristine Snake
River in Wyoming.
Its timber framed
foundation floor and
large timber columns
emulate the wooded
surroundings. The
bulk of the structure
floats above the large
chimney foundation
providing shelter for
the outdoor fireplace
without too much
disturbance to the
natural setting.

8. Living Observatory
South Carolina Botanical Gardens
The Goal of this project was to design
a night observatory and art exhibition
space that incorporated the landscape.
The building’s tower is designed to be
open to the public 24 hours a day to
allow amateur astronomers unrestricted
use of the observation deck.

9. The Living Observatory was named such
for two reasons. Part of its roof structure
appears to grow right out of the ground,
and is landscaped with the same natural
grasses found on site. Also, the myriad
of circulation routes and visual apertures
throughout the structure allow visitors
to observe as well as be among the
observed.
Northwest Elevation
The tower wall flares
outward to direct the
observer’s gaze towards
the stars, yet it is open
in front to allow visibility
of the live roof and deck
structures.

structure
seems to
emerge from
beneath

12. Nesting Cube
I designed and built this jewelry box to seamlessly fit
together to resemble a solid wood cube. The box is
made from quarter inch walnut which is mitered at
all edges to hide the joints. The modified splines
are accented using eighth inch basswood,
which reenforce the glued miter joints and
double as sidewalls on the interior of the
box.
The two pieces of the box
can be pulled apart to create
identical open containers
for keeping small items.
They also fit together
again to securely protect
its contents.

At a larger scale, the nesting cube
becomes a versatile piece of furniture
with many different possible arrangements.
Two end tables can become two stools. Side by side
the pieces create one large coffee table. Storage is created
when the two pieces are fit together.
