Office Design Project- Simplean Graphic Designs Construction Documents

Construction Detailing

These are the detailing documents that I drew in a detailing class my junior year of college. They show my understanding of the appropriate depth in which a designer must go in their drawings in order to be accurately read by another designer or architect.

Designer Resume

Entertainment Space Furniture Design Sketches




These are some sketches I did for a project in West Linn, OR during my summer internship with Garrison Hullinger Interior Design, based out of Portland, OR. I was asked to come up with some furniture design ideas for a master bedroom entertainment space that had a long, unique cove like area and a dome ceiling above it. The furniture was to have the look of a built in piece, but was to actually be a free standing piece or furniture that spanned the length of the cove. I decided to go with a more contemporary, clean and simple look for this design because it seemed to be what worked best for the space as well as the families style. I also played around with various storage arrangements and drawer a door fronts. The wall behind the T.V has a rock wall covering applied to it to as a focal point.

Lighting Study- Revit

This was a light study done in 3D MAX where we were to design a room with windows and show how the light would reflect against different types of materials in the room at different times of the day.


Simplean Graphic Designs- Business Logo

This was the Logo that was created for Simplean Graphic Designs during the office design project my junior year at the interdisciplinary design institute of Washington State University. I wanted the logo to reflect the concept of my design which was simple, clean, organized design that promotes innovative thinking and collaboration amongst it's employees. The colors reflect the tones that were used in the interiors of the office space.

Simplean Graphic Designs- Office Space

These are some of the interior perspectives of the office space that I designed for the graphic design firm Simplean Graphic Designs in Spokane Washington. The design concept for this office space was simple, clean, organized and comfortable design with emphasis on collaborative areas throughout the office space. When asked to design an office space, I knew that I wanted the office to be place where It's employees could look forward to coming into work everyday. I wanted the office space to promote happy employees where productivity and collaborative innovations could come to life. This was made possible by designing a space for the Simplean's employees that was clean, organized, free of clutter and distractions along with collaborative areas that would promote innovative thinking and group efforts. Everything in this design from the color palate of cool and neutral tones, the furniture systems from Steelcase INC and the layout of the office space connects to this idea of a simple, clean and organized office space with emphasis on collaborative thinking. Simplean Graphic Designs has been given an office that can grow with their business when new employees, opportunities and ideas come along.
