La Primavera Bathroom

I really enjoyed designing this bathroom. I actually submitted this design to the Daltile student competition. My inspiration piece was the painting "La Primavera" by Sandro Botticelli. This is personally one of my favorite paintings, so I had a lot of fun ideas. I tried to use very earthy or earth inspired colors like green, brown, and yellow to reflect the concept of being in a garden. I enjoyed playing with different tile combinations. This is actually part of a larger project I am working on, so the bathroom needed to be wheelchair accessible. To make it accessible, I added features like a roll-in shower, a separate water closet with grab-bars, and a sink that can be rolled up to. This was definitely a learning experience, but I enjoyed every part of it.

Gregory Kitchen Design

Designing this kitchen was a very different experience for me. I did not realize just how many details go into designing a kitchen. My inspiration piece was a few lines from the song "Arms" by Christina Perri. In the client brief, the family wanted a Palouse inspired color scheme (basically natural colors). I used different greens, yellows, and lighter browns to create a nature look. I also used granite counter tops. All of the appliances chosen are energy star. The counter height is lowered and certain appliance styles were chosen so that the entire kitchen is wheelchair accessible.
