Interior Design, 2018

CrossRoads is a program developed specifically for Fire Station 6 in Franklinton, Ohio. To address issues facing the community, CrossRoads targets two main groups: those who left high school early without graduating, and young businesses looking to grow. By teaching those who left high school early technical skills in areas like computer science and graphic design, the main goal of CrossRoads is to connect these trained individuals with the young business professionals. This provides the businesses with experienced workers, and gives the workers a viable career in the community as it seeks to grow. Social areas amidst offices and classrooms allow the groups to mingle and get to know each other, with the café being the centerpiece on the second floor. The hope is that these connections result in both a stronger community and a more developed economy.

After graduating high school in 2013, Greggory Tuckerman spent a year at Liberty University before deciding to transfer to Ohio State. Originally from Westerville, Ohio, Gregg has spent 4 years at Ohio State in Interior Design. Personal interests include interior design, architecture, sneaker design and culture, basketball, and video games. In interior design specifically, Gregg is most passionate when it comes to retail, restaurant, office, and lighting design.
