INTERLAPPINGuniversity of illinois at chicago
INTERLAPPING, as exemplified in Oscar Niemeyers House of the Architect at Cancoa, is used to reconcile the differences between two sprawling surface graphics, creating dynamic spatial qualities within an overlapping roof and ground surface. Various moments of interiorized (void) and exteriorized (figure) space begin to be defined through the interconnecting process of the two surface graphics. Formally this process also begins to suggest program. Amphitheater is suggested by sloped like seating. The wall perpendicular to the amphitheater serves as a presentation wall for a projector facing the amphitheater and gallery area outside. At another moment a table top platform is accompanied by seating to create another performance area. When situated within the overall context of the site, specific moments of space correlate with the architecture building and important intersections within the walkways drawing people in to what otherwise would have been vacant space.

I utilized my knowledge of wood frame construction to develop the 3d massing/structural model which I then used to finalize the renderings, diagrams and physical model.

INTERLAPPING officially opened to the public for the Year End Show on May 4, 2012 concluding a two month construction process. Following the completion of the construction drawings, prefabrication of the wall and floor panels began on 3/19 in the controlled environment of the A+A building. The assemblage of these parts on site promptly commenced on 4/2 and ended 5/3. During this period the roof and exterior cladding was also fabricated, fitted, primed and painted on site. Interlapping remained open to the public for the summer of June - Aug. 2012.

VERTICAL GREENHOUSEtulsa, oklahoma
Iconographically shaped in the form of a troop of mushrooms, Vertical Greenhouse is designed to provide visitors a firsthand experience learning the workings that go forth towards producing, harvesting, and ultimately eating farm raised/grown food. This project comprises of seven variously shaped buildings each sustaining different aspects of the farm based on the particular floor to floor height of the floor slabs. Aside from its function as a vertical farm, vertical greenhouse will also integrate various other programs including: a hotel, gas station, and an assortment of restaurants all serviced and influenced by the food the farms produce. Large interior atriums open up the interior not only providing ventilation but the means from which to connect and begin to link the farm and restaurant programs.

24/7/365 Urban Recreation proposes concentrating out of city/state attractions not found in inner-city Chicago to create a new location of entertainment and culture within the city. It will be a place to potentially spend an entire day with friends and family, and benefit from a diverse selection of both daytime and nightlife activities all year long. The fruit orchard, organized on a 25 x 25 grid would best represent the notion of 365 as a representation of the annual cycle of the changing seasons. Leveraging the piers overall attendance is the centrally located stadium that may attract several local professional sports teams as well as several other activities and events throughout the year. The childrens museum located west of the stadium identifies the family zone defined as everything west of the stadium. Similarly the casino identifies the adult zone located east of the stadium. The stadium or shared zone serves to intermediate user flow between the two zones.

GLOW IN THE PARK (BUILDING SCIENCE)chicago, illinois
Assigned the task of designing a wood frame Bike Shed and Workshop of a lightweight sensibility, we designed a structure utilizing a wood louver and energy efficient polycarbonate panel system. Both systems work together to control the amount of filtered sunlight may be allowed in during the day and how much may be allowed to radiate out by night. Northern facing awning windows provide ventilation but also soft natural day light.

VILLAGE URBANISMchicago, illinois

02optimize tower mass to inform

The concept of Villiage Urbanism arose from the idea of having private housing units, stacked one on top of the other, and having them placed within the public modern urban high-rise. Together it will be a collection of program consisting primarily of residential and commercial office space. A four story garage at the base will house the lobby and a coffee shop. Residential units are placed within the elevated shifted platforms of the commercial program with lobbies, retail, and the athletic facility serving as connecting program between the platforms. Structurally these platforms are cantilevered using a truss system with columns and core also adding support. The skin differentiates the commercial program of the platforms with a repeating horizontal and vertical pattern.
