Candice Yao
BS in Environmental Design — Spatial Experience DesignMedieval Dining
A medieval-themed community venue for Renaissance fair fans, fantasy lovers, and curious newcomers. Combining dining, gaming, retail, ballroom, and rooftop bar, it creates an antique, rustic, and otherworldly setting for connection and self-expression. Through rich materials, immersive layouts, and ties to local events, it offers a safe, welcoming space to bond, explore, and escape into a shared fantasy world.
Learning Outcomes:
Gained the ability to extract medieval design elements from traditional church structures and reinterpret them with modern materials, creating an impression without direct replication. Learned to design dining and experience spaces by considering varied seating for different roles, contrasting narrow passages with open areas, using layered circulation to evoke exploration, and creating custom lighting to enhance the overall atmosphere.
