Tasks included researching commercial spaces and learning about the different types of equipment needed for these spaces such as, ventilation, drainage, sanitation, countertop clearances, and the usual sheet layouts and how they differ from residential plans. I had the opportunity to develop design features and compiling inspiration boards down to the last color and textile that we proposed. A lot of times manufacturers did not have equipment or items that we can just use, we had to design things such as sneeze guards, countertops, display cases, lounge seating, and even shelving that did not exist. meaning we customized hardware for the contractors to build. Towards the end of my position at NCA, I was proud to say that I was transitioning to become a project coordinator. This meant I would begin to take on the task of managing projects on my own. If there is one thing I would like to advance on, is become a project coordinator. Show less
