Me in a nutshell

Ever since I was little, I have been interested in arts and crafts. Growing up, I was always busy crafting, painting, or scrapbooking projects of all sorts. I am pursuing design as a career because of this, I want to be allowed to let my creativity and imagination flow freely. I am inspired by everything around me, both by things tangible and felt. I hope to learn as much as possible about commercial and residential design, and learn to take on whatever challenges I am presented with.

Kitchen Case Study



To begin to better understand the functions of a kitchen before ever designing one, it is important to analyze and try out different kitchen spaces. In order to do this, I got together with three other girls to cook a spaghetti dinner. We went through all of the steps of making a delicious feast, and at the same time measured and discussed the space.
This was a unique task because we worked in a group to complete the dinner. It was a good challenge to divide the tasks up evenly and work together. I contributed to the group by taking the pictures, recording, and drawing out the perspective while also helping to discuss the positives and negatives of the kitchen. My weaknesses were not fully voicing my opinion on final decisions. The next time I work with a group, I will be more confident in what I want to see produced.
Diving deeper into kitchen spaces by cooking a spaghetti dinner was a fun way to analyze a kitchen. We learned from both the positives and negatives within the kitchen.
