DISSENTDISSENT
This project was a collaboration between interior design and apparel, merchandising, and design students. The fashion student assigned was Abby Beuse. The goal was to understand and articulate her brand into a uniquely shaped building in Rome. This project was featured in the Iowa State newspaper and was admitted into the 34th Art / Design Annual Gallery 2014.
Designed by Abby Beuse
Dissent Clothing
Dissent’s atmosphere rebels against common attitudes in main stream fashion boutiques. The space de�es its physical constraints through illusion, lighting and repetition.

Dissent retail store creates for its customer an experience that is avangard and shocking. Materials are used in a way they were not originally designed for, creating an atmosphere that rebels against common attitudes in mainstream fashion. The space de�es its physical constraints through illusion, lighting, and repetition. The �oor plans are in tandem allowing for a �uid �ow through the spaces.

Working with real clients on Iowa State University campus was a wonderful experience. The employees in the Mackay office needed a solution to maximize their space and add new private and open plan work stations to their office. The objective was to create an environment that attracts and engages workers, fosters collaboration as well as supports necessary private work. Flexibility was key with this space’s furniture arrangements. The design was simplified to the essentials, featuring a clean and modern aesthetic.

Part-time Work StationsMinimize excess work surfaces in part-time stations creates more space. Reducing partitions in the center of the room allows for more light integration.
Full-time Work StationsSemi-enclosed work stations create privacy and reduce sound.
Healthcare
This project is a design of an addition to the Northcrest community. The scope includes an assisted living, healthcare, and memory care connected in one building. The challenge was to create appropriate spaces for each client while keeping the connection of the building and minimizing long walkways.

Custom created brand logo and identity
The Next University building project will be a 10,865 square foot opportunity that will not only support the needs of the faculty and students, but will creatively re�ect the university’s identity. The space encourages modern teaching methods crucial to the diverse learning styles expected by the students. It also promotes physical and psychological well-being.

The space is light and fun, yet aesthetically mature as it utilizes a purposeful repetition of color and texture to showcase Next’s brand identity. Connectivity is shown through the translucent wall partitions. The natural element is prominently displayed through the rich, green, living wall at the entrance. Gray corru-gated metal pillars represent the strength of the core values and the intentional �exibility of the educational process.A bouldering wall playfully conveys the innovative element o�ering hands on learning activities and wellness. The adaptable use of technology highlights the university’s transformative conviction.

ArtDrawing and sketching are an important part of my professional practice. I am continually challenging myself to communicate visually in new ways. I am currently most interested in computer painting, water color, and making logos.
