WEBB CONSULTING
SENIOR SEMINAR, UNIVERSITY OF CENTRAL MISSOURI
Webb Consulting Inc. was modeled to senior students as a corporation that included
separate divisions who worked as a team, yet all reported to the CEO and COO, who
emphasized open door policy. I designed the floor plan to mimic the way a tree works, with
the main offices at the core, or trunk, and divisions of the company branching off. Color
selections also reflect an organic palette.

NAVY EXCHANGE SALON, SPA AND BARBER SHOP
PEARL HARBOR, HI
The Navy Exchange (NEX) is part of a retail store that provides services to Military and
their families at discounted prices. This space was part of a major renovation on the base.
The design concept was to provide customers with a relaxing atmosphere and give them the
best possible space to enjoy an indulgent experience. At the NEX, they know just how
much Military and their families need pampering. They promote special packages
and encourage groups to book the salon for a day or evening. It is a great space to prepare
for a “welcome home day” and a great place for groups to celebrate the half way home time of a deployment. I designed the floor plan to achieve privacy with the division of salon, spa and barber. The styling station
walls were designed to create an intimate feel for each station and add an architectural
element.

DC Studio Salon and Day Spa HARKER HEIGHTS, TX
A relaxing and contemporary design reflects the personality of the client in this quaint salon. The open floor plan makes this 1200 square foot space feel larger and quieter. Rooms are situated in the back for quiet and privacy.
