As a designer, I have a strong understanding of how interiors come together, from the architecture of a space to the furniture and soft fixtures that fill it. Each element is essential to creating one cohesive look that is both unique and innovative. Having completed a Diploma Program from Humber College, I am formally educated and trained in an industry that I truly love. As an interior designer, I have the flexibility to work with an ever-changing industry but also keep the creative freedom to create truly beautiful spaces that will tell each client's individual stories.
My partner and I designed a modern urban style loft that was located in the 6th largest city in Canada, Mississauga. Our clients were a couple that was expecting their first baby, they loved to travel together, take walks and hikes and they both had interesting hobbies that we needed to incorporate into our design. We took the natural, luxurious, and vintage elements and added them to our design.
I was given an actual home in Manhattan and was asked to come up with construction, electrical, finishes, and furniture plans along with kitchen elevation plans for this new build in AutoCAD. This was one of my favorites!!
This one was so fun!!! In this assignment, we were given an empty shell of a pre-made garage. I was giving a word and I was to design a getaway that people could enjoy during the pandemic. I was given the word STRENGTH and I designed a getaway for the strong women in our lives that take on the weight of the world every day not only for themselves but also for their families. Moms don't ask for a lot but what they do ask for is time with the girls, my friends call it "book club" and that's exactly what this garage was made into.
The Barrett Centre is a campus residence at Humber that took a big hit from the pandemic when everything went online. My partner and I decided to design a room that students, professors, and guests on campus can use for both sleeping and working. We built on our harmonious connection of organic lines, and playful colors that give both a dynamic and inviting outlook to our floor plan.
My final assignment of semester 4. In this assignment, I was given a family that was moving to Stratford PEI. Although the couple is soon to be empty-nesters the family is growing their son is getting married, their middle child is married and is expecting their first child, and the baby of the 3 kids still goes to college and lives at home. The couple recently had a health scare, the husband suffered a stroke so they decided to live a sustainable and healthy lifestyle. What I designed for this family was a home that was large enough to hold Sunday family diners and give the couple a relaxing private retreat for just the two of them to be together. I gave them a dynamic, supportive, and intertwining family home with lots of texture, balanced lines, and a unified sense of togetherness that brings it all together.
