JANNA DE VERA  

THE COMPLETE
PORTFOLIO



Hi! My name is Janna De Vera, a fifth-year undergraduate student majoring in architecture at the University of Southern California. My journey into the realm of architecture began with building legos as a child, and has evolved into the creation of sophisticated models throughout my collegiate experience. 

Committed to a pursuit of excellence in education and hands-on learning, I am driven to cultivate a profound understanding of design, technology, and human behavior. My academic journey has not only equipped me with a strong foundation but has instilled in me a resolute commitment to continuous improvement. As I embark on the transition to the professional realm, I am eager to apply my existing skills while actively seeking opportunities to acquire new competencies that will contribute to the dynamic field of architecture. 

I am enthusiastic about the prospect of leveraging my knowledge and skills to make meaningful contributes in the workforce as well as the built environment. Welcome to my portfolio, cataloguing all my work from the past four years, I hope you enjoy.

ARCH481: Furniture Design
R. Scott Mitchell
The design was inspired by the need for additional seating in my room and a dedicated storage solution for my records. Previously, my record player and records were tucked away in a neglected corner, and I often found myself too lazy to get out of bed to change them. Drawing from vintage gossip benches, I reinterpreted their design elements to create a functional yet visually cohesive piece. I aimed for a clean, seamless aesthetic, where simple forms fit effortlessly together. The circular cutouts serve as a playful nod to the shape of records and the record player. Using 1.5 sheets of Baltic Birch and the campus CNC machine, I was able to bring this design to life.
