Introduction Statement

Hello designers,

my name is Katie Rohrbach of Katie Rohrbach Interiors. Ever since I was about seven years old I have been designing interior and exterior spaces. I still hold onto some of the interior space drawings from way back then. My passion for design continued to grow as time passed by. After graduating high school I attended Bellevue College studying photography, art and design for about two years until I transferred to Washington State University to study interior design. Currently I am enrolled at Washington State University as a freshman in the summer program. This opportunity to study at Washington State University means everything to me and I will tell you why. When I was sixteen years old I had a grand mal seizure at one of my friends birthday parties and landed onto a glass/hardwood coffee table. Ever since that fall I have never quite been the same… the fall caused memory loss to come and go with each passing day since the accident. Four years later and I still struggle with remembering how to do certain activities or what I am supposed to do. The one thing that this accident can’t take away from me is my ability to design and create. Although I will have this ‘handicap’ the rest of my life I will always be able to do what I love; design and create. The world around me inspires my designs and I put everything I have into a project no matter how small. I will continue to expand on my understanding and elements in the Interior Design industry on my road to my future career as an Interior designer.

Urban Sketchers

During our time at Sculpture park in Seattle, Washington we had the chance to sketch with the Urban Sketchers of Seattle. We practiced and relearned sketching exactly what you see and using your pen/penicl to measure and mark on your paper the points needed in order to create a great sketch.

I consider the below sketches to be successful due to the detail and accuracy of them.

I realized my weakness is in my patience and once I do something wrong I also have the need to erase or start over instead of continuing through with the drawing.

My strength is in my technique and strokes with my shaky hands.
