Goal: Design a seat and aircraft interior for a new generation of buyers.

Parameters: -Must exist fi t within current KingAir interior dimensions -Crash safety and fi nish material weight-General FAA safety guidelines

Seats rotate and tray tables pivot out to go from airplane to conference room in minutes.*

The interior was designed so that a single repeatable section could be built and then ganged together to created a seamless fl ow from cockpit to tail. Details such as a recessed waste bin and tray table were incorporated. Other features include: a wall mounted reading light, touchscreen media controls, a wireless charging pad, and OLED screen in the shade.

Shown is how the sections look when brought together to form the hull interior. Maximum head clearance was vital so the isle ceiling and fl oor are at their maximum possible dimensions.

After the modeling was complete in Rhinoceros it was imported into 3ds Max for rendering. Lighting and materials were applied here to bring life to the vision.

Above: Seats rotate inward to face the center of the aircraft. The tray tables also swivel out to form work surfaces for the conference confi guration. A recessed projector in the ceiling makes presentations simple.Right: The window shades have OLED screens integrated for an individual viewing experience.

Goal: The concept for this chair was to create an upscale folding lounge chair with more comfort than your average folding chair. Cherry hardwood and custom cushions add class and comfort to a chair genre where function dominates form.

1. Incorporation of a swivel back that supports the occupant in any variety of positions.2. The unique cantilevered back is a hint to the discerning eye that the folding method is a simple single-motion feasible with one hand.

Although this project was on a short deadline, several diff erent prototypes, mock-ups, and scale models were made to assure the quality of the fi nal product. Mock-Up:Finalized seating and back angles and heights as well as arm rest properties.Scale Model:Ensured the proper functioning of the folding action of the chair.

WoundedWarriorR e h a b i l i t a t i o n & C o m m u n i t y C e n t e r

The Wounded Warrior Project’s purpose is “to raise awareness and to enlist the public’s aid for the needs of injured service members, to help injured servicemen and women aid and assist each other, and to provide unique, direct programs and services to meet their needs...What started as a program to provide comfort items to wounded service members has grown into a complete rehabilitative eff ort to assist warriors as they recover and transition back to civilian life. Thousands of wounded warriors and caregivers receive support each year through WWP programs designed to nurture the mind and body, and encourage economic empowerment.”

Goal: The WWP recognizes the additional needs beyond the physical many of our servicemen and women have when they return from war zones. Aside from the host of physical injuries they may have, there are a host of mental disorders and injuries that have a direct relationship with what these warriors experience. Normal rehabilitation facilities are not usually equipped to meet the additional needs of these soldiers with specifi c ailments such as Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) or Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI). The U.S. military has found it in its members best interest to commission

specialized facilities for the rehabilitation of wounded warriors back into civilian life

and so this project is one of these such facilities. This design is meant to be a prototype for future rehabilitation centers whose goal is to pursue

wholistic healing for its patients and total health for its members.

Parameters: -Site must be located near Ft. Riley and the adjacent town, Junction City. -A community and therapy center are required.-Appropriate areas for chosen specialized therapy must be provided in accordance with related research.-The designer is responsible for appropriate research, Program, Schematic Design, and Design Development.

Site ModelM o d e l e d i n R e v i t

This site in south Junction City, KS was chosen for its proximity to Ft. Riley (15 min drive) and the city center (10 min drive.) The site allows for easy access for both military and civilians and yet off ers seclusion from the surrounding city and highways.

The digital topographic model was created using a combination of topo. maps of Junction City and GIS data for the region.

Life is a journey of many destinations but for these warriors the goal is to move them from:A) Therapy and relying on others to

B) the Community and self reliance.

Red Line) represents the often indirect path patients take in their journey of healing.

Blue Componants) represent the central role that family must play in this process of recovery. These shapes represent what will eventually become a Family Wellness Center between the Therapy wing and the Community center wing.

The fi nal parti provides maximum views to the Southeast and also protects patients outdoors from unwanted winds and onlookers from the North and West.

The massing model of the therapy wing provides the fi rst view of how the parti can be interpreted in the 3rd dimension.

Above: This is the main gymnasium for physical and occupational therapy. Great scenic views and plenty of daylighting provide an open and energetic environment contributing to wholistic healing. The therapist workstations (semi-enclosed space in center of image) are centrally located and allow for viewing of both secondary and primary therapy gyms.Right: Shown is a fl exible simulation space. A large amount of storage is just off to the left for equipment to set up any simulation environment for testing a variety of skills.
