Leisure LoungeDesigned, Built, and Upholstered

For my final woodshop project, I wanted every detail of my design to be a new construction experience. These challenges include utilizing and incorporating research of ergonomics into the seat design, constructing the piece with minimal machine tools, the use and execution of complex joints, and upholstery.

Master Plan

Plant Life Elements

The problem with U.S. soldiers returning home is that they have no place to retreat to for physical, mental, and spiritual care. A soldier's care is unique and requires a more specialized aproach to establishing a successful entrance into civilian life than any one therapy can provide. With the healing efforts of biophelia in mind, this project is equipped with numerous therapies to provide a holistic care facility.

Ebb + Flow Jazz Club Redevelopment

Ground FloorBasement

Historic buildings have always been a passion of mine. They have so much to offer in the way of informing us of our history and they way people used to live in the US. For my thesis project, I took an abandoned building located on the outer edges of the 18th & Vine Jazz District in Kansas City, Missouri and designed a jazz club that embraces the essence of Kansas City Jazz. The basic structure was maintained in the design including the decorative brickwork of the original 1890 structure.
