CARA AMBLERinterior design portfolio
ConocoPhillips – Eagle FordConocoPhillips is a major player in the oil and gas industry and one of the largest
in the world for independent exploration and production. Although their main
headquarters is in Houston, Texas, they have remote drill sites all over the globe. I
have served as the interior designer on several recent projects, which has helped
me become familiar with their standards, taste in design and commitment to safety
throughout the construction process. Their field offices are often surrounded by
rural landscapes, so the interiors are brought alive with use of vibrant colors and an
abundance of natural light.
The Eagle Ford field office is located in Kennedy, Texas and was completed in the
Fall of 2013. During my internship in the Summer of 2013 I was able to participate
in some important decisions regarding furniture and materials along with the
architects, client and their preferred furniture specialist. The interiors that our firm
designed for Eagle Ford have become one of our client’s favorite projects to date
and a model for future projects.Reception Desk at Main Entry

Bakken Village ApartmentsThe Bakken Village Apartments is a design proposal for a housing project in North
Dakota. The desire for this project was to be an upscale apartment complex with
custom cabinetry, stone countertops and man-made marble vanity tops. While
quality materials and finishes were desired, the interiors needed to also accurately
represent the location and user profile.
My Primary Responsibilities:
• Selection of materials and finishes

Painted Pony CasinoThe Painted Pony Casino is located in Trenton, North Dakota.
Ambler Architects was challenged to expand their existing
trailers, creating a larger, more functional space to meet their
growing demands. Although most casinos are designed to be
flashy with a lot of sparkle and color, this casino needed to be a
little different. Catering primarily to male, blue collar workers,
it was important to consider the user profile and location in this
design development process.

Why Black and White?Sometimes clients tend to focus on color and materials
at first glance. In an attempt to redirect their feedback,
we presented these renderings in black and white to
ensure that we were headed in the right direction before
we honed in on the details.

community in Oklahoma for nearly 40 years. This center provides a safe haven

Bartlesville First United Methodist ChurchFounded in 1895, First Church has a rich history in Bartlesville and now meets in a
newly-constructed facility designed by Ambler Architects. During the original
construction of the church in 2013, we had specified stained concrete to be the flooring
in the building. Several months later, the product began to bubble up and lose adhesion
to the substrate. It was necessary to find a replacement flooring that could be installed
quickly, while also providing durability and ease of maintenance for the staff.
My Primary Responsibilities:
• Selection of materials and finishes
• Finish plan
• Several presentations regarding
suggestions of different products
• Continual communication with
flooring subcontractor and
team
• Continual communication
with client
• Final punch of facility
