I can't believe I have been married for over 4 months now. The past year has flown by and certainly has kept me busier then ever. Finally I give you some of my favorite shots from the day. It was amazing! </div>

With all the excitement of graduating college and getting married I completely forgot to post my final project. Our last project was to design a mixed-use space for a neighborhood close to the University. With my love of diners I knew exactly what I wanted to do and what better way to bring a community together than with good food and friendly faces. <a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-fJK9rXhfy5E/T-NpOz149iI/AAAAAAAACMk/t7GqK5U2IsE/s1600/rendering+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-fJK9rXhfy5E/T-NpOz149iI/AAAAAAAACMk/t7GqK5U2IsE/s640/rendering+1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The space I had to work with was from a previous building I designed in a group project. I had to work what was there so I took advantage of the view of the neighborhood park and the tall ceilings.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KYs5_rArJZE/T-NppzLTB9I/AAAAAAAACMs/hUqRgRJkqJ8/s1600/rendering+2+.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KYs5_rArJZE/T-NppzLTB9I/AAAAAAAACMs/hUqRgRJkqJ8/s640/rendering+2+.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Ceilings were over 20 feet high in this space so I used horizontal beams to bring the eye down and out onto the diners outdoor space. This also allows for a cozier space for people to come together.</div>
<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used familiar aspects of a diner such as stainless steel counter space for sitting, an open kitchen and bakery items on display.</div>
<br />

I really enjoyed working on this last project. I can't believe it's over and school is out for good. It seems like just yesterday I was starting into the Interior Architecture program at UNCG not knowing what I was in for. Four years of sleepless nights, constant eating, screaming at times, and I'm pretty sure I lost some hair. Totally worth it! </div>

Today was my last day interning with Anrthopologie. After two semesters of of being with the Greensboro store it's sad to leave but what i got from my experience at Anthro I'll take with me forever. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Anyone interested in a hands on internship where the creativity never stops and the pace never slows down i suggest this internship to. This internship is not for the one who doesn't want to get there hands dirty. Spilled paint, died hands, splinters, and sunburns are required! : ) I had a blast and coming away from this i feel like my creativity these days is overflowing and i enjoyed being inspired everyday i worked at Anthro. Thanks to the Greensboro Anthropologie store for having me not once but twice and for all the good times! Love, your favorite intern : ) </div>

After a few last tweaks, a barnacle here and barnacle there, the new window for the Greensboro Anthropologie store is now complete! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

After completion of the window we have added a moment outside the store in the entrance way. This was a nice way to compliment the apparel on display. The contrast between the green wall and the barnacles is really nice.<br />

With 43 days left on the count down until the big day I think it's about time to start updating my blog with all the projects I have been able to get my hands into. From invites to showers to flowers you name it I have worked on it. This has been an experience I will surly never forget. How I have managed to hold down an internship, go to school full-time, keep up with the E shop, and plan a wedding is beyond me and lets not even begin to discuss all the extras life has thrown my way. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So today I give you our save the dates! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
These were so easy, we just picked an engagement photo, added a little text in illustrator, save and printed at the drugstore for super cheap. </div>

This week at Anthro we are installing the newest window display. After cutting 100's of recycled egg crates, bending and twisting them into new shapes we glued all the individual pieces together into sections. Each section was painted and now were heading out onto the floor for installation. Today we spent in the window connecting each section with wire and molding the window into a beautiful sea of purple barnacles.</div>

This week Paige was involved in a competition between Anthro stores for designing a bracelet fixture from found items in her art room. I must say that our solution came out pretty awesome and the Greensboro store took 2nd place. So big congrats Paige! As you can see there is always so much going on for the design coordinators at Anthropologie retail stores!<br />

The design coordinator has many responsibilities at Anthro and they spend there time working on everything from signage to fixtures to beautiful displays. These towel racks were made from scrap wood and faucet heads.

This edgy concept was a lot of fun. Ballons taped together and covered with glue and hemp. Sounds easy right, think again. These were a pain but look how awesome they came out. Some were painted gray after they dried. I think the more natural textures look nice in a store filled with so many colors.<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">With four months to go and sooo much to do it's easy to stress out over the little things that in the end probably wont even matter! </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was reading the Etsy Blog this evening and found this on A Wedding on your terms post :</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 22px;"><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #4c1130;">"write this on your fridge or hand: “I will not remember what my wedding looked like. I will remember how it felt.” Because at the end of the day, even really cool stuff is just that: stuff. It’s the love you share, the people who hold you up, and those precious moments of bliss and joy that you’ll remember for the rest of your life.

Once again catching up! Remember that Sephora Design Competition I was working on. Well it just so happens I took third place. Yes third place out of 495 applicants I do believe. So along with the honor of winning this amazing award i was invited to the 15th annual Pave Gala in New York City! It was amazing and I was awarded a check for 1500 while there. </div>

My love for Anthropologie grows everyday! Seriously, rubber bands! The awesomeness that happens in this store will blow your mind. Such a cool and funky texture! If ever in need to be inspired make a trip to your Anthro store! The Design Coordinators at these retail stores spend so much time and attention to unique details to make an unforgettable shopping experience for their customers! </div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">Children in South Africa who have lost one or both parents to AIDS are left to care for themselves and their siblings are referred to as "The lost generation". Many of these children suffer from emotional and psychological issues because of their lack of care, structure, and trauma of losing their parents. We want to aid these issues by designing a place for orphaned children to live, be loved, and have the same opportunities as if their parents were still alive. our solution is to design a home that functions as its own community while becoming part of the greater community and culture. The rounded plan reflects the traditional architecture of the Zulu people by encompassing cob structures and timber verandas with the addition of modern corrugated metal roofing. </span></span></div>

the two structures is a timber veranda which casts shade over the community and
eating area. In addition to the structure, there is also a water collection
system connected to the roof which gathers rain water and directs it into a
holding tank. The colors used within the building play off the theory of
Chakra. Green encourages emotional stability, purity, and calmness. Blue helps
to encourage communication skills and eases anxiety. And orange aids in the
ease of depression and physical ailments. </span></span><o:p></o:p></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">The goal
of this home is to give the children a comfortable and safe environment which
allows them to not worry about the struggles that they once had to face. The main
focus is to provide the children with the opportunity to go to school and ultimately
become self-reliant members of society. Research shows that orphaned children
who are raised in family settings are less likely to experience cognitive
delays, poor physical growth, and negative behavior than those who are raised
in an institutional setting or on the streets. </span></span></div>

The new window breaks away from the smaller picture and splashes it's cool shades of blues and greens across the entire store front.<br />

Layers of paint are dripped, splashed and painted onto the glass. This one should be loads of fun to take down but in the meantime i think it really works for the stores front. I really enjoy the splashes of color behind the vertical logs.<br />

The Holidays at Anthropologie!<div style="text-align: center;"> And this is how we do the Holidays at Anthro! I love decorating for the Holidays but this took that love to a whole new level. Before the Holidays got started we got a new Design Coordinator for the store. This turned out really cool as much as I hate to see Addie go however she now has started her own event planning business which is amazingly awesome because she is now designing my entire wedding day which I will catch you up with on a later post, and Paige Cox, our new Coordinator is just as talented. Paige also has an Etsy Shop online where she sells her beautiful felted creations, <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/lulugroove">http://www.etsy.com/shop/lulugroove</a> .

All in the details!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">As much as I have enjoyed the larger scale projects at Anthropologie the little details in this store are really what makes it stand apart from other retail stores. Special signage and unique details really complete the store and engage the customers in this unique shopping experience. These are just a few of the smaller details I worked on during the fall. </div><br />
