My design is meant to create a cheerful respite. Nobody wants to be in a situation where they need to stay at the Ronald McDonald House. My design is meant for anyone staying in the room to be able to take a deep breath and maybe smile that they have a space to stay in that hugs them.

I have been saying for a while that I feel like “I need to give back.” I could not think of a more worthwhile cause than to express my creativity by designing a guest room for the Ronald McDonald House.
