interior perspective practice

this is the renovation of my friend Melia's perspective:

apparently no one is home, and the person that lives there reads braille magazines.
but they have great taste in art.

final studio project: habitable wall

the final project for the semester was to create an engageable / habitable wall for a client we were assigned. I designed a wall for James Turrell, an artist whose medium is light.
beginnning with sketch models, I developed the idea that ended up in the final design, that incorporated a canopy type "wall" with a space for entertaining, sleeping/resting, food prep, storage, a place to work, and an area to showcase work.
here's the process:



second iteration model






final model





final model, second view

wishful thinking

meet my newest love:
the Becca stool by Anthony Marschak for Modern Bamboo caught my eye while window shopping at Design Public. they feature it as seating and have two together to form a coffee table, but I'd love it as a bedside table.
