I have always had a passion for interior design ever since I was young, and learning more about the profession and all it has to offer pushed me to enroll in the Honour's Bachelor of Interior Design program here at Fanshawe College. I love all sectors of interior design, but find I am most passionate about hospitality and commercial interiors. I am so grateful for all the great friendships and memories we have created over the last four years as a class and can’t wait to see where we all end up in the industry.
Social Hub for Young Adults Promoting Mental Wellbeing, Productivity & Social Connectivity After Covid-19 Pandemic:
Thesis Capstone Project
The Covid-19 pandemic has taken a toll on all individuals in the past year and a half, and has led to worsening mental health conditions, loneliness, isolation, and lack of social and mental wellbeing. Students and young adults have seen significant impacts through the transition from in-person classes and activities being moved to all virtual formats. Introducing a Social Hub design that comprises a library and a cafe environment, that provides feelings of mental wellbeing and social connectivity to young adults while remaining productive and comfortable in nature is the design goal for this thesis capstone project.
