This project was created during my time at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, taking architectural design courses presented a rewarding challenge alongside my broader studio practice.

Comfort Station Designs

In this project, I was tasked with designing a series of public restrooms centered around a space theme. The result is a bold, futuristic concept that reimagines utilitarian design, transforming a traditionally overlooked space into one that is visually engaging, imaginative, and far from ordinary.

Concept Sketches

For these concept sketches, I aimed to create forms that felt organic and pod-like, reflecting a natural, integrated aesthetic. I began by exploring freeform shapes, which gradually evolved into the final floor plans, allowing the architecture to emerge intuitively from the sketches.

Restroom Design 1

This building was designed to create a space that feels both welcoming and visually engaging. The wave-like roof draws inspiration from the movement of cosmic gases, echoing the fluidity of water.

The floor plan balances openness with intimacy, featuring circular stall designs that offer a sense of privacy and gentle enclosure evoking a feeling of comfort and embrace within a larger communal environment
