IMUA
Public Service Design
Imua is a 3-story transitional housing facility in Honolulu, HI to serve 40 otherwise unhoused adolescents (ages 18-24), providing housing and comprehensive trauma-informed care services for 18-months, with the goal of enabling residents to heal from past trauma and gain the supportive community and independence skills necessary for a more stable, secure future. Using a holistic trauma-informed approach, we designed with these 6 core values: (1) Hope, Dignity, & Self-Esteem; (2) Connection & Community; (3) Joy, Beauty, & Meaning; (4) Peace of Mind; (5) Empowerment & Personal Control; and (6) Safety, Security, and Privacy.

THE HATFIELD
Hospitality Design
The Hatfield was commissioned by a local entrepreneur to develop a new-build event venue in Grand Rapids, MI. A minimalistic palette, clean lines, repeated geometric shapes, natural elements, and iconic mid-century modern furniture creates an elegant, timeless design. The plan comfortably seats 300+ guests in each of its event spaces, complete with accordion doors that create seamless indoor/outdoor transitions. Bridal suites, photographable spaces, and an energizing central bar/lounge make The Hatfield a truly unique, all-inclusive experience!

SMITH RESIDENCE
Residential Design
The Smith Residence was a near-complete remodel project for a ranch-style home in Grand Rapids, MI. It involved a major floor plan remodel of all shared spaces of the home: Entry, Kitchen, Dining Room, Living Room, Hall, Pantry, Laundry Room, Mudroom, Half Bath, and Office. The project included a new, 3-sided fireplace, custom millwork, including storage built-ins and a drink station, and all new appliances, fixtures, and furniture. Opening up the home and adding additional South-facing windows better connects the family with nature and to their park-like backyard. The open floor plan lends itself well to entertaining, helps to better connect the family, and supports the Smith family's active lifestyle.
