JILL ROEBELRJ

I am OPTIMISTIC. To me, there is no problem that can’t be solved. I am

AMBITIOUS. After succeeding in being accepted into a top ranked design

school, no goal I set for myself is too high. I am CREATIVE. I know being

creative isn’t just about being artistic. It is the blending of artistic skill and

problem solving techniques. I mix my great listening skills, witty humor and

“cool-as-a-cucumber” attitude to come up with creative solutions.

PERSONAL STATEMENT

FINE ARTSVarious Projects, Various Mediums

My first two years of college were spent in the Fine Arts school. I took various drawing, painting, metal sculpture and ceramics classes.

This project was a color study project. We were asked to design a port-o-potty and render it using complimentary colors. The port-o-potty project was the first project to use color our freshman year.

The intent of this project was to learn AutoCAD and use it to develop constuction document of a well known building. My partner and I chose to draw the Wexner Center designed by Peter Eisenmen on The Ohio State University’s campus. The strong grid running through the building developed for Columbus’ city grid.

LITERARY CENTER

LITERARY CENTERLudlow Ave, Cincinnati, Ohio

This project was to design a literary center for a traveling author to stay for 3 months at a time. The site was on Ludlow Ave. in Cincinnati, Ohio. The literary center I designed had a “fish bowl” like atrium in the middle where the author could stay and write. Anyone visiting the center could watch the author and their process.

The interior of the literary center was designed to put the author on display. The visiting author would work inside the circular atrium to be watched by the visitors of the center.

The exterior of the literary center fits in well with the surrounding architecture. The facade is made of red bricks that are common in that area. Large windows on the south side of the building let in a lot of natural light.

Eco-Resort Design

This eco-resort in the Himalayas is built entirely on a bridge. It is a summer camp for college students looking for an experience of a lifetime. The dorms, cafe and lobby are all on this bridge that spans a river in Leh, India.

The dorms of this resort are able to accommodate four students. By putting the bunk beds on the side of the room I was able to give the students more room to walk around and unpack suitcases.

Lobby/Entrance

The main lobby of the resort is an open space to give students room with all of their bags. The balcony at the top of the image lets students look out amoung the landscape while their teachers check them in to the resort.

Cafe

The cafe is completely open to the elements. The weather in Leh, India is very mild during the spring, summer and fall. The roof on the top level has grid pattern cut outs. When the sun shines through it gives the feeling of sitting under the shade of a tree.

Residential Remodel

For this project I used an existing house that is owned by a baby boomer and remodeled it to better suit her needs as she ages. Her house was very broken up and felt small. She entertains her family of 30 and needed a bigger space.

After the remodel the room feels much bigger. I added more storage and a long bench on the right wall to be pulled out when her family comes over.

Pop-up Retail Design

This project was a pop up store for a men’s clothing store. It was to be built and taken down within a couple of months. The design of the store is that of a lounge for men to go to hang out, try on pants, and better the overall experience of shopping. Customers can choose what to try on by selecting items on a tablet. Those items would then be placed in the dressing rooms for them.
