interior architect - artist

bio
my name is katie osinski. i am currently a graduating student of chatham
university studying interior architecture. i am a transfer student, meaning i had
a realization of what i actually wanted to do half way through college! lol. i
have an intense passion for art, design, and all things beautiful. ignoring that
part of me would be doing a huge disservice to myself and possibly others.
who knows. so, i guess i’ll take the extra year of college.
when i was a kid i thought i wanted to own a restaurant, but realized i
would want to make a bunch, and move on from each one after the next. i’m
also not much of a cook. then i thought that i wanted to be a nurse because
the childrens hospital of pittsburgh was so full of color that i wanted to be
there all the time. through the years, i began to realize that my passion was
centered around creating and curating environments that could inspire other
small katies. i hope one day i can do that.

hospitality
the blockhouse hotel was inspired by the spirit of
pittsburgh. the last remaining building of fort pitt, the
fort pitt blockhouse, is the oldest existing structure in
western pennsylvania. we take inspiration from this
representation of pittsburgh’s rich history, as well as it’s
main building material; concrete.
pittsburgh has an unforgettable
essence of eclecticism; represented
through the many diverse neighborhoods
which all house a unique feel.
this is emulated through our use of
varied material finishes.

hospitality
555 is a virtual reality nightclub centered around the concept of escapism.
spanning 5 stories and located at 555 gold way, each indivicual floor is
meant to be it’s own escape. unifying design elements of the past, present,
and future helps to create a unique other-worldly vibe within each space.
escapism is a state of mind produced by action attention,
or paying attention to the activity at hand; in this case, the
augmented virtual reality experience, as well as the other
activities offered by each individual floor. occupants will be
engulfed into a euphoric and timeless escape at 555, and
leave feeling renewed.
