CORPORATE OFFICE SPACE:

AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL

CONCEPT: HOUSE OF RIGHTS FOR ALL

Amnesty international is an non-profit organization that protects human rights. Their motto is that everyone deserves to live with dignity. The concept for this office was to reinforce this idea, allowing the space to act as branding. The idea of a house of home and its associations were utilized to convey a feeling of warmth, make the space inviting and give a sense of comfort.

RETAIL – GIFT STORE

635 QUEEN ST. WEST

TORONTO, ONTARIO

Concept: Celebration

Throughout history, queen street west has thrived as an energetic, eclectic neighbourhood that has been home to immigrants, budding artists, and young professionals alike. While it seems that queen west has always been a place for new beginnings, there is a strong sense of history there too. My concept is based on this very unique identity belonging to west queen west. It is about the vibrancy of the neighbourhood now, coupled with the nostalgia of the past. It will represent the memories of the artists who contributed their flavour to the area, and the immigrants who made it flourish, while at the same time, it will be representative of the cutting-edge trend-setters of modern day residents.

(COLLABORATIVE PROJECT)

TEAM MEMBERS: Andrea D., Sukaina E.

HEALTHCARE: MOBILE CLINIC

CONCEPT: ADVENTURE JOURNEY BY SEA

The inspiration for our concept stemmed from three words; journey, path and adventure. These words describe the emotional experiences of cancer patients, especially children, and their caregivers. The struggle to overcome the obstacle of cancer is a journey full of choices, both good and bad. This train of thought lead us to think of adventure in all its forms and we found that stories are full of adventures at sea, on a ship. We had found our concept. A ship represented a journey, the choices of paths were limitless to the captain and each path could potentially provide a different adventure.

CONCEPT: CROSSING BORDERS

The angled axis dividing the plan represents the border between Canada and the United States. The angled atrium is an outdoor space with a connecting bridge across the second level. Private office space is separated with a stone wall while the public area is transparent to the outside because of the glass wall partition. The concept of crossing borders is consistently repeated through out the design.

DISPLAY UNIT OBJECT

CONCEPT: MOSAIC OF CREATIVITY AND DIVERSITYThe display unit will be a collection of cubes designed by 3rd year students. The end result is a diverse collection of designs representing essentially the same thing; Humber College, its students and the Interior Design program. I derived the concept from the diversity of people, cultures and programs at Humber and then narrowed it down to my specific program (interior design) and then further to my own cultural heritage.

yearn for timelessness.Frank Gehry
