.1Positive | Negative
Purpose: Observe objects in both positive and negative space.
By analyzing objects in both positive and negative space I was able to see more than the object of
focus.

.2De Seversky
Purpose: Observe the mansion on NYIT's Old Westbury campus: "De Seversky". Pick a perspective and draw what you see. Pay
close attention to what is creating the space that you draw.
The hard lines define the boundaries while the shadows
show depth. By shading exactly how the masses were seen, the
extrapolations feel realistic.

.1Surface Design
Purpose: Use concrete as a medium in a golden section-based design.
Make a fountain with three turns using concrete.
Create an interesting design out of blocks to display different water falls.
Because the model was made of concrete, a foam core mold was necessary. The mold created represented the negative space of the model.
.2Water Works
Location: Brooklyn, NY
Site Constraints: 4,620 s.f.
Purpose: Create a water viewing park for the public through the excavation of a hill side
while displaying water in different ways.
Approach: Use a waterfall to naturally move the water down the slope; circulating with the
inhabitants while creating different experiences and moments to interact with the
water.

.1Flat Space| Deep Space
Purpose: Take a 2D painting and transform it into 3D while maintaining the main focal points
and themes of the painting.
Approach: Strategically layer the themes of the painting in model so each side is a
different and interesting view.
The diagrams each represent a different theme
within the painting that I wanted to highlight within the
model: square proportions, negative space, guitar
translation, and rotational translation
Guitar Layer Study Model
Proportions Negative Space
Guitar Translation Rotation
Keeping the concept of the origami model in mind, I created six layers of a wood frame that each embody a theme of my chosen painting, thus turning a 2d idea into a 3d model.

The Cliff Dwelling .2
Location: New Jersey Palisades
Site Constraints: 1,296 s.f.
Purpose: Create a dwelling for three inhabitants through the excavation of a cliff
while maintaining natural light.
Approach: Staggered floors.

Perspective
The circulation of the space is displayed well in section. I created a seperate
entrance for the studios so that they would be disconnected from the public part of the house. Also, by creating a
seperate entrance at grade level, this makes carrying materials to the studios
more conveniant.
Playing with masses were necessary to
see how volumes would fit
together and relate to one
another.Study Models

I wanted to design a space that would not only grasp each of the artist's individual style and needs, but also use personal experience of spending large quantities of time in a studio to make life in the dwelling as simple and convenient as possible.

.1Central Park Gatehouse
Location: Central Park West, NYC
Site Constraints: 9,000 s.f
Purpose: Design a gatehouse that transitions the public from the busy streets of the city
into the serene and natural land of the park.
Approach: Create a void through the center of the structure that welcomes the public
inside.
I wanted to incorporate nature within the structure to symbolize the coming together of the city and Central Park. The concept was to create a
void down the middle of the building. The circulation encompasses the void, making it the
focal point during the transition from city to nature.

Circulation
The top view expresses the open circulation on the top floor. The
higher the people circulate through the structure, the more
open the plan becomes. Ironically, they are getting further from
nature, yet feeling closer to it.

.2Ecology Observatory
Location: Prospect Park, Brooklyn, NY
Site Constraints: 114,165 s.f.
Purpose: Design an office space for three scientists; an astronomer, biologist, and chronologist while keeping their specific
needs in mind while having a gallery space for the public to walk through.
Approach: A long gallery space with extruding offices.
Creative Process | Inspiration Board
The initial idea was to have one long gallery space that would connect all the program
together. I used Zaha Hadid's, "Land Formation One", as an inspiration to develop the design.

To obtain order, I created a grid using two specific views across the lake: The
Le Frak ice skating center and a natural baseball field. One is synthetic
(man made), and the other is natural. The grid would create 90 degree angles along the curve (the program) which represents the synthetic aspect of the project while the water curve follows the natural land.

I translated the three labs based on the personality of the
scientists. I pushed the chronologist towards the
sky, dug the biologist into the earth,
and shoved the hydrologist into the
water.

.1The Fifth Elevation
Location: 482 Broadway- Roosevelt Building
Site Constraints: 11,500 s.f.
Purpose: Design the fifth and sixth floor of an existing office building for a fashion
designer using the existing structure within the building.
Approach: L-shaped circulation to distinguish public and private areas.

Creative Process
Steve Madden Shoes was chosen as the company for the office space since their
first retail store in New York was in SOHO. The circulation is two L-shapes in order to
distinguish private and public space. PrivatePublic
The double height space integrates both floors with one another. It also makes it possible for
both runway shows to be viewed simultaneously. This large space becomes the
employee gathering area for when the space is not occupied by runway shows.

Steve Madden stores throughout New York City have an industrial look. Their shoes are
also described as young, trendy, and fun. That idea was carried out when choosing
materials for the interior.
.2Parc De Bombers
Location: Montblanc, France
Architects: Arriola & Fiol
Site Constraints: 9,612 s.f.
Purpose: Discover how the fire station functions with its design.
Approach: Dissect the structure and discover how that dictated the program placement.
Function
Truck Bays
The function wraps around the focal point of the building: the double height truck bay.
By doing this it is allowing any fire fighter in the building to get to the trucks in the least
amount of time.

.3EMS Station
Location: 19 Old Fulton Street, Dumbo Brooklyn
Site Constraints: 4,200 s.f.
Purpose: Design an EMS Station in the given site keeping the height of the surrounding
buildings in mind.
Approach: Dramatic internal and external views.
Upon vising the site, I noticed three distinct views: The Brooklyn Bridge, New
York City skyline, and towards DUMBO Brooklyn. The given site had two unusual angles. By copying them at ten foot intervals, I created a criss-cross
grid which dictated the placement of my program.

Like "Parc de Bombers", I had the function wrap around the truck bays in order for circulation
to be the most efficient. I wanted to define the
bay, but not enclose it. Using the grid, I created
angled partitions that puncture through all the
floors.

The bottom two floors are focused around the
view of the truck bay. The upper two floors
extend past the neighboring buildings
which allows it to have exterior views.

The zig-zag pattern created by the site grid created the possibility for unique angled balconies to look over the double height
space.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
