PARKLETTE CUP-A-JOE’S PARKLETTESAN FRANCISCO, CA

Commissioned by Cup-A-Joe’s coffee house, smallgroup, a collaborative studio formed with several post architecture graduates, designed this parklette as part of the city of San Francisco’s Pavement to Parks program.

This terracing method was adopted after developing a matrix of three tectonics and three approaches to the steep topography. Walls, floors and seating, all constructed of reclaimed redwood, cascade downhill to create a dynamic landscape for neighborhood hangout.

GROUND SHIFT AGRICULTURAL INTERVENTION + INFORMATIONAL PAVILIONBLACKSBURG, VA

From the beginning of this three part semester Ground Shift was a study in doing more with less. The initial proposal, a response to a two day design prompt, was for an information pavilion in the research fields of Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, Va. The Windmill Pavilion arose out the desire to make the ground work harder with minimal effect on the existing research fields currently home to corn fields and equine veterinarian facilities.

With its minimal footprint, staggering vertical presence and delicate visual disturbance the Windmill Pavilion becomes a beacon of information and hope for a more sustainable future.

// RICOLA STORAGE FACILITY Herzog and de MeuronCASE STUDY

An investigation into facade, screen, skin led to this case study of Herzog and de Meruon’s Ricola Storage Facility.

With their acute understanding of building tectonics Herzog and de Meuron create a highly functional rain screen and thermal barrier that unveils itself over the course of the user’s approach to expand the skin far beyond its physical confines.

Clearly separating the envelope from the facade frees the components of the rain screen to become a visual procession, opening up and elevating the building in space.

GROUND SHIFT RESEARCH WINERY AND VINEYARDBLACKSBURG, VA

The concluding project for this semester was a research winery and vineyard to be built as a new department for Virginia Tech and to lead the charge for Blue Ridge Mountain vintners.

Apparent contradictions in the project brief: a steel structure to utilize thermal mass heavily anchored to the ground while also focusing on the facade, become the driving force of this project.

The result is a series of steel trees pushing up the earth to make room for a subterranean research facility while leaving a glowing chasm in the earth as a beacon for innovation at Virginia Tech. The vineyard is embraced as the strongest possible facade for the project: a dynamic metonym seen while walking, biking, driving and flying into Blacksburg.

// PARAMETRIC DESIGNDESIGN and LIMITS

Plan and section instantaneously inform each through the use of a script tracking square footage requirements, the slope of a ramp that runs the perimeter of the winery and the shape of the footprint. With these parameters understood as contingent upon each other, the design is free to develop formally and programmatically.

Based on the success of this process, scripting was again implemented in the design of the School of Architecture + Design’s Awards Booklet 2010.

OBJECTS THINGS THAT CAN FIT IN YOUR HANDWELL, MORE OR LESS

These projects of a smaller scale afford the opportunity to see a project through to the end without large investments of time or money. Each project represents a different level of completion: from conceptual development for a competition, final model, to marketing, production, online sales and distribution.

// A THOUSAND THANK YOU’SLASER CUT CARD

These thank you cards are the continuation of a the exploration began with the A + D holiday card and carried into the 2011 Awards Booklet. The booklet graphic was reformatted for laser cutting so that rather than a change of stroke, varying score depth creates difference in the pattern. By combining the processes of cutting out the card and drawing the image production time and cost are dramatically lowered. These cards were seen through production by the collaborative project smallgroup using kickstarter.com

EGG RATTLEHAND CRAFTED MAHOGANY TOY

SEESAW RACKNYC CITY RACKS COMPETITION

The Egg Rattle was designed with intrigue, durability and elegance in mind. The egg shape compliments the hand, ensures strength and creates irregular movement patterns when rolled. Hand lathed mahogany and a salad bowl finish provide the safety and elegance that make this toy appropriate in a newborn’s crib or on an office desk.

The NYC City Rack Competition asked for an innovative network of bike racks that could eventually be installed throughout the five borrows. The SeeSaw Rack, created while working with C U P , was designed to have multiple points of contact for maximum security while creating an easily recognizable identity for the bike rack network.

DETONATION TOWER

THIRD YEAR DESIGN COMPETITIONAN INVESTIGATION INTO THE THIRD LANDSCAPE

Sited between an active rock quarry and suburban neighborhood in Blacksburg, Va, the detonation tower is a container of the past, collector of the present and projection of the future. As an investigation into the third landscape, the perpetually in-between, this project passes no judgment but creates a thick border space occupied by everything that defines it.

In collaboration with Griffin Ofiesh and Josh Eager.

WIRED NEXTFEST ENTRY PAVILION DESIGN + INSTALLATIONCHICAGO 2008

In 2008 WIRED Magazine asked C U P , a design research collaborative, to design and build the entry pavilion for NextFext Chicago. A previous project for the London Festival of Architecture was redeveloped and implemented in Chicago. Water jet cut polypropylene units ship flat and come together to make a pillow like wall and space for relaxing and viewing art.

MODENA OSSUARY ALDO ROSSI CASE STUDYTHE ART OF BUILDING

This model was built as a way to study Aldo Rossi’s Ossuary at Modena Cemetery. The ¼” = 1’ model stands over three feet tall and is placed so that the viewer stands inside to experience the space.

In collaboration with Terry Surjan’s Art of Building Class.

CITY OF THE FUTURE CARTOGRAPHIC UNDERWORLD PROJECTIONS CHICAGO HISTORY CHANNEL’S CITY OF THE FUTURE

When asked to envision Washington DC one hundred years in the future, C U P gave an image of local vertical farming intertwined with local environment, public transportation and energy gathering infrastructure. As the political seat of the US, this idea was then applied to the entire country and used to restructure not only a political cartology but also the national ecology.

After the one week charet and design period C U P presented the proposal in DC to a jury of local city planners and designers.

DEEP HISTORY MEMORIAL FOR THE ROAD TO NOWHEREGREAT SMOKEY MOUNTAINS NATIONAL PARK, NC

Understanding context as the interaction of layers, this project became a two dimensional and spatial mapping of the HISTORY, CULTURE, NATURE and ARTIFICE of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, NC. Translating the process of layering from a two dimensional exercise to the creation of space led to a memorial that distills and recomposes traditionally conflicting perspectives in an attempt to heal through observation and remembrance.

The initial map (top left) tracking the construction of the national forrest led to a more spatial concept map (top) for the Memorial for the Road to Nowhere site. Fire, construction, human displacement and ecological proceses converge on the site to create a deep history not easily understood and impossible to confine. The porous box defining the space of the memorial attempts to act as a lens, both focusing on and blending the continually evolving layers of the site.
