Chapter seven: Week 7

Week 7 Reflections

This week marked a significant milestone in my journey as I successfully extended my contract until May, a result of the positive feedback on both my design contributions and the interpersonal support I provide to the French office and the Canadian artists. Being assigned the office redesign is an accomplishment that fuels my motivation to create a space that is not only visually appealing but also fosters a true sense of belonging for my colleagues.

With each new resident, I’m sharpening my adaptability and interpersonal skills, responding to different personalities and dynamics. The growing responsibilities bring added pressure, but I’m determined to maintain a balanced work-life balance and find time to recharge.

This role is shaping me, both as a designer and as a mindful team player.
