Design Concept:

Designed a children’s museum that connected adults’ and

children’s minds through the journey of the ramp experience, art

studio, perception exhibit, and play space. Their connections

ignite their creativities and curiosities, honoring the child’s

creativity and allowing an understanding of their world

perceptions. Children learn best through somaesthetics and

play which is used as a tool to adapt in different learning

environments.

Extensive research was developed on the range

of learning styles and perceptions of children’s

minds and play.

The art studio of the Children’s Exploratorium allows

children to create art out of recycled materials, based

off of what they experienced from the perception

exhibit. Families, teachers, and staff work together in

allowing children to artistically express themselves

and their perspectives.

Research supports the fact that spatial cognition is

developed through working with 3-D dimensional art.

Perception Exhibit - Activating senses

Page 7: Caitlin Martins portfolio

“Exploring, walking, crawling, experimenting with high and

low: all these experiences activate the tonic function and

propioception, but above all engage the child’s emotional

body; that is, the body as source of big emotions and deep

sensations. A body that becomes the primary source of the

identity-building processes and the essential protagonist of

the learning and knowledge-building processes.”

Play +

The playspace of the Children’s Exploratorium allows children

to physically move their bodies to explore different aspects of

play. Furniture is movable, inspired by Emilio Reggio’s cognitive

learning play furniture line.

M o r n i n g P r o d u c t s

The journey of the store starts off with the main

entrance, displaying the morning products.

The design reflects the organic structure of

morning routine.

As you travel past the demonstration sinks, you

enter the back entrance, displaying the night

products.

The design transports you through a more

dynamic, fast paced life style, reflecting the day

and night routine.

Restaurant Logo

Design Inspiration

F l a m e n c o

The restaurant will focus on Spain’s exciting, vibrant culture of

flamenco dancing and its rustic terrain. The design will invoke aspects

of flamenco dancing through connecting terms that describe its

powerful culture, dance, and aesthetic elements. Zest, vibrancy,

rhythmic movement, sophistication are all terms that add spide to

the design’s influences. These include bold patterns and colors,

worn finishes such as wood and stone, and a Chihuly-inspired glass

ceiling reflecting the flamenco dress.

The proposal was to design a restaurant for the Harbor Edge Hotel that

is inspired by one of Charlestown, Boston, Ma trading history.

At Flamenco, guests are enchanted when dining and drinking with friends

as if they are amongst Spain’s gathering crowds viewing the passionate

and lively flamenco dancing culture.

Stunt Show

Design Concept:

Abraham L incoln the Vampi re Hunter

Class was separated into teams and each team worked on creating

a script and a timing stunts chart for a stunt show in an existing

arena. Our group chose the movie, Abraham Lincoln the Vampire

Hunter, for our IP and the location in Japan’s Universal Waterworld.

My contributions to our team were producing the design concept

of the behind the seat screens for Henry ’s letters, model building

the sets, rendering Scene 1 in Photoshop, and story boarding the

earlier scenes

Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter, The Stunt Show

Spectacular!

Script: Scene 1 - Springfield Illinois:

“Scene opens on a busy street in Springfield. Audience

receives first note telling them to remain extra vigilant,

especially around the pharmacy. Abe walks through

the crowded streets of Springfield, enters the

pharmacy (open vignette), fills a prescription. As he

is leaving he meets eyes with another customer who is

about to enter the pharmacy. His 6th sense tells him,

this is a vampire...”

Lobby Design

Design Concept:

Night Time View

Preliminary Sketch of Lighting

T s u n a m i L o b b y

The concept of the hotel lobby space is influenced by the Japanese painting print, The Great Wave off Kanagawa by Katsushika Hokusai. It illustrates the rushing tsunami wave near Mount Fuji. The design will illustrate a modern, minimalist version of the painting by evoking elements of curvilinear forms, complimentary hues of blue and orange balanced with neutral hues of brown and white, and textural elements that reflect the print ’s prominent crashing wave’s motif.
