Location: Kobe, JapanCompleted: December 2012 (student project)Project focus: installation space, intervention, urban form, curation
This project is inspired by urban phenomena in Japan, particularly those conditions that result from a rapidly changing urban form. One of the most significant effects of this rapid rate of change is the presence of gaps in the urban fabric. This thesis engages with the gaps in the Sakaemachi neighborhood of central Kobe as representative spaces of change, addressing temporality, questioning the void as a negative space, and offering a proposal to exploit the gap. This project envisions Sakaemachi’s gaps as a collection to be curated, creating an infrastructure that supports this network of gaps as an ‘art site’, filling them with temporary site-specific installations and inviting the public to transgress the void.

1246 24Four gaps & Art Site Sakaemachi (right)Interstitial voids are critically important to perpetuating the unique character and formation of urban space in Japan. Of the forty-eight gaps surveyed in Kobe, four were selected to rep-resent Art Site Sakaemachi. A visitor’s experience of the site is either intentional or discovered.
Gap EvolutionThis sequence of maps demonstrates the increasing fragmenta-tion of urban land and the growing complexity of the network of voids that separates buildings.

The overlay of the figure ground maps from 1956, 1984, and 2012 demonstrates the evolution of gap development within 26 year increments, the average length of one ‘scrap and build’ cycle. Notable is the growing number of gaps, the increasing division of space and smallness of property, and the amount of empty space by 2012.

Maintaining the GapThis facility provides the basic infrastructure to maintain the Art Site. It is located in a larger gap, a typical infill site, measuring 34’ x 70’. Programmatically, it includes public restrooms and a welcome center for visitors coming to Sakaemachi and it also acts as a storehouse and workshop. Scaffolding and other materials for the in-situ interventions are stored and staged here by the curator and artists.

Temporal StructureThe storehouse is temporal in nature, reflecting the ever changing urban landscape. Scaffolding acts as an exterior structure to shelter the unconditioned space of the work-shop. The conditioned space, a simple box constructed of plywood and 2x4’s, is entirely hung off of the scaffolding structure. The lifespan of the storehouse is 3-6 years.

Experiencing the GapThis rendering displays the final realized product of an artist’s installation in gap #12. A simple ramp built from scaffolding brings the visitor up into the space, suspending them 4’ above the ground plane. A mirrored surface covers the ground in the center of the gap, allowing the visitor to experience a reflected image of the sky above and the hanging installation, which is here represented as a glowing pink orb. The projected length of any one installation is 6 months.Visitor’s experience of imagined hanging installation in gap #12

Location: Washington, DCProject Size: 30,000 sf; 22 residential units + retailProject Focus: Adaptive re-use, mult-family residential, mixed-use
Proposed adaptive reuse of a historic theater into multi-family housing & retail space. Working with a larger project team, my role consisted of programming, conceptual studies, zoning research and preparing documentation for submission to a historic review board. I also conducted space planning exercises for unit layout and configuration, working to maximize the FAR and achieve a minimum number of units required by the developer.

Envisioning a restored Takoma Theater
Transformation of a Historical IconCentral located in the Takoma Park Business District, the proposal provides much needed retail and housing. Working to satisfy local residents and preservationists, the proposal aims to restore the head house and strategically punctuate the blank facade containing the old auditorium with openings to bring light into the space and satisfy the needs for housing.

Location: Washington, DCCompleted: estimated 2015 (under construction)Project Size: 5,310 GSFProject focus: single-family residential
This modern addition to a historic home opens up the main living area to views and access to the backyard. Limiting the material palette to harmonize with the existing house, the addition utilizes floor to ceiling glazing and modern detailing. As Project Manager, my role consisted of working with the client through all phases of the project including complet-ing all drawings and details, permitting, coordinating with the contractor + consultants, contract pricing + negotiation and construction administration.

Location: Seattle, WACompleted: March 2011 (student project)Project focus: Tectonics, structural systems, public space
Preparing for the next generation of bus travel, this hypothetical bus terminal accommodates the civic nature of public transit terminals through creating an open and accessible public space. The terminal itself acts as an extension of the streetscape, allowing for ease of flow of people and buses to and from the site. The tectonics shift between a dense manipulated ground and a highly trans-parent plane defined by an expressive steel-framed roof above.

Vertical and lateral support systems are integrated via three canted columns at each support point which rise from an extrusion of the concrete ground plane and meet a curved roof plane overhead. The frame of this roof also stitches together the lateral support.

Location: Charlottesville, VACompleted: October 2013Project Size: 330 acresProject focus: urban design, sustainable development, landscape urbanism
This revitalization plan for the City of Charlottesville transforms a former industrial site into a vibrant new mixed-income, mixed-use neighborhood. The vision plan focuses on sustainable infrastructure, varied housing types and improved connectivity and public space. My role in this project consisted of working with a team to review and edit the plan document. I also developed plan diagrams and rendering/collages to evoke an imaginative idea of what could become of this forgotten area of Charlottesville.

Working within the constraints of an existing building, the focus of this project was to transform a mundane backyard structure into a luxurious pool house. I served as Project Manager throughout all phases, completing all drawings including construction documents and coordinating with struc-tural, electrical, A/V and mechanical consultants. As Construction Administrator, I reviewed shop drawings, led bi-weekly site meetings with the contractor and clients and submitted construction sketches.

Part of a new design-build development on the Washington DC southeast waterfront, the Capital Yacht Club serves as an anchor for the boating community with administrative offices, community rooms and a restaurant. Working with a team, my role in this project consisted of drafting floor plans, reflected ceiling plans, interior elevations, egress diagrams, bathroom layouts, material selec-tion and various schedules during the Design Development phase.

MaterialsDesigned to project over the Potomac River, the building is split between land and water. Stone masonry wraps the exterior over land and at the water’s edge, the cladding changes to a pre-patinated zinc siding, evoking a maritime quality of a weathered hull. Other materials include textured wooden screens for solar shading and wood decking.

During a year long research fellowship, I documented my travels and everyday occurrences through sketching. This method of documentation allowed me to record not only architectural ideas and concepts but gave me a lense to process my observations, from the mundane to the phenomenological.
