Alida is a graduating senior at Utah State University and will be receiving her Bachelor’s degree in Interior Architecture and Design with a minor in Art. Design has always been a part of her life – she enjoyed sketching floor plans and fashioning furniture and decoration for as long as she can remember. Her love of design grew stronger via a healthy appreciation for nature and the way it carries our attention. Wanting to create spaces and landscapes that inspire awe and tie us back to our natural roots, she finds joy in changing interior spaces that speak to the adventurer in all of us. She was excited to be accepted into the Interior Architecture and Design program at USU and was fortunate to complete a 13-week internship at DLR Group in Portland, Oregon, working in commercial design and learning more about historic preservation.
Alida has always seen spaces not as they are, but as they could be. Her design style is best described as colorful and eclectic, with an emphasis on texture and appreciation of small spaces. She is passionate about design that tells a story and excites the inner child. She feels an interior should be a tactile exploration, guiding the eye and the body through every inch of the room. She values empathetic design that pushes the envelope while creating a positive user experience. Alida enjoys the process of design because it is a journey of discovery. She is excited to work on projects in hospitality, commercial design, and experience design and hopes that her future work will bring about positive effects for both people and the environment.
