Role: Designer
Developed a schematic environmental branding concept for the renovation and pavilion addition of Georgia Tech's historic Smith and Howell first-year residence halls. Collaborating with architecture and interior design teams, I created "It's All in the Details," a concept featuring a custom Georgia Tech-inspired icon system and geometric graphics that balanced technical precision with a warm, student-centered aesthetic. The concept was presented to the client alongside multiple design directions during schematic design.
Completed while working at Ayers Saint Gross.
The entrance of the Dining Hall displays a large map of local waterways – providing trade routes to the Piscataway people for over 13,000 years and locating the 16 tribes of the Piscataway Confederacy. Next, you are met with the legend of the shad fish – original artwork by a Piscataway artist.
A comprehensive timeline extends one’s experience to the lower level of the building. A highlight of the timeline is a photographic display of Wampum Belts. Originally proposed as a collection of written treaties, the Elders of the Piscataway-Conoy tribe conveyed the significance of beaded belts as a marker of historic moments.
