SYSTEMS:GOMATERIAL ORGANIZATIONSUNG HO KIM, professor FL 2008The first project in graduate studies, ‘material organization’ was an exercise in systematic construction. The evolution of a unit is followed by the development of a connection strategy, leading to a very structured geometric field. In the final analysis the most intriguing revelation is the coexistence of the chaos and order within the same geometric field. The process driven exercise dictates the form as opposed to the creation of form. The vital lesson and beautiful sculpture which resulted were a solid foundation for the rest of graduate studies.
LINEARDEVELOPMENTRESEARCH FACILITY 35,000 SQFTJEN MAIGRET, professor SP 2009The impetus of the project began with constructs which addressed qualities of line. The idea of collaboration was an important factor in the design decisions and with further development, the line expands to be the volumes of crisscrossing space while maintaining a fluidity as an overall form. Additionally, the climatic conditions allowed for an ambiguity in transitions from exterior to interior.

ASEPARATESPACEHOUSING 40,000 SQFTPAUL LUKEZ + KEN TRACY professors FL 2009With the many restrictions imposed by a housing project I looked for a way to make a typical element, the wall, something special. In this project the wall becomes a light well which separates public and private spaces within each unit yet unifies them by providing daylight to both. These light wells then offer a method for uniting the entire complex. Additionally, the two building strategy allowed for the creation of a private courtyard.

THECOLOSSUSOFRUOHOLAHRUOHOLAHDENTORI PAVILION1,500 SQFTWITH NATHANIEL ELBERFELD SP 2010A sketch project, the pavilion was intended to act as marker of and entry to the square. Drawing strong inspiration from the Villa Malaparte, the pavilion extends the existing stairs to the square while incorporating small programmatic elements into act of accession.

CONTRACTTOEXPANDCULTURAL CENTER7,000 SQFTMATTI RAUTIOLA, PENTTI KAREOJA, + HILLE KAUKONEN professors SP 2010The American Cultural Center in Helsinki was an opportunity to represent America in the Finnish context. Of particular difficulty was designing a space which mediates an exuberant American culture and a reserved Finnish one. Spatially the dynamic, overlapped spaces distilled from simple geometry provide constantly evolving spatial experiences while maintaining a familiar geometrical language.

PAIREDREACTIONTANGO ACADEMY9,000 SQFTGERARDO CABALLERO, professor FL 2010Inspired by the responsive relationship required by tango dance partners, the academy of tango is a warehouse of dance. Created from the distortion of a singular line, the duel space which results both encloses the dance studios and allows the milonga to be an active part of the street life. The dynamic section is the heart of this project since it embodies the movements of tango.

DIVINEINTERVENTIONART MUSEUM + MONASTERY30,000 SQFTSTEPHEN LEET, professor SP 2011This studio addressed the peculiar pairing of a monastery and a contemporary art museum. While different in many ways both are places for people to elevate beyond their mundane experience. One through art and the other through God. Therefore the insertion of the monastic program into the volume of the contemporary art museum intensifies the conceptual relationship while physically connecting them in brief glimpses of wonder.

MAKE-DOPUBLIC WORKSHOP 60,000 SQFTERIC HOFFMAN, advisor FL 2011The origins of this project began by studying urban appropriations. I loved the creativity and ingenuity of the acts but more importantly they expressed an ownership over the city. Previously influenced by African and Latin American culture, Cherokee St. now has a growing artistic community which will redefine its identity. The people who live here posses the spirit of the aforementioned appropriations and are eager to be involved. This project intends to capture the spirit of Cherokee and enable it’s growth by providing a community space for creativity and production; a Cherokee St. workshop.

LOWRIDERFURNITURE DESIGN6 SQFTJULIE SCHEU, professor SP 2010As part of a semester spent in Helsinki, a furniture design course with the prompt of designing a wooden chair was integral to a true Finnish design experience. In the process I had my first experience in furniture design and bent wood construction. The simple chair, made of only two pieces is a new twist on temporary seating.

RE:DECKDESIGN STRATEGY730 SQFTFaced with an aging, over designed deck, the client looked for a way to simplify. This goal was achieved by dividing the deck into a lower level wet room and a raised public gathering area separated by a privacy wall. The final move of pushing the circulation along one edge frees the rest of the deck for uninterrupted occupation. Additionally, the design allowed the existing utilities to remain in place including the outdoor shower. It’s currently under construction.

UNSOLICITEDRESEARCHDEREK HOEFERLIN, advisor SP 2011As part of my graduate education I chose to study abroad for a year; a semester spent in Helsinki, Finland and the other in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The year was experienced through contrasts of culture, style and aura. As an initial investigation I attempted to distill what I learned from my year abroad about my personal perceptions and the evolving contexts in which I lived. My primary interests soon revealed themselves to be multifaceted. From the beginning the unusual and creative appropriation of public space coupled with the duration of said events was intriguing. In addition was the revelation that the pairing and layering of contrasting elements combine to define identity. With these notions as prompts, the aim was to determine what architecture’s role is in creating these moments. The moments and places which defined my experiences over that pivotal year.

‘TRUTH AND BEAUTY RESIDE IN THE ODD, THE MISMATCHED, THE IDIOSYNCRATIC’The A.O. Scott quote above regarding the work of Wes Anderson has been a continual source of inspiration. The honesty of this statement had a profound effect on me when I first heard it. The truth is life isn’t perfect but it’s wonderful if you can learn to appreciate
the imperfections. In the end it’s the imperfections which give us character. It is exactly those characteristics which attracted me to urban appropriations. Some are intentional, some found circumstances but all have this spirit about them. They are moments that interrupt the mundane
experiences of life and they are the source of stories and engaging conversations. They are the result of and joy and unrest but they are always born out of some raw emotion. Not over thought and distilled into mediocrity. The freedom afforded to these moments is not what you typically
associate with Architecture. After a semester studying urban appropriations it is my strong desire to find a way to bring this spirit, this ‘joie de vivre’ into my projects
HELSINKI,FINLAND is an ideal city in which to study for a semester. Its scale allows for easy exploration within the parameters dictated by an academic schedule. The calm, collected demeanor of the typical Finn at first heightened insecurities, but I quickly realized the cool impression they give is undermined by the sincerity with which they conduct themselves. The sauna, the preeminent Finnish export exemplifies the beauty of their lifestyle. It is a place where you bond with others without any physical boundaries and also a place where the silence demands a contemplative solitude, a community in silence. Never underestimate the Finnish spirit, for it knows how to endure; the winter always turns to spring.

BUENOSAIRESis everything toArgentina. It’s the economic, cultural, and political center of the country and it feels like it. Despite the economic and political tribulations of its past there remains a laid back character and vibrancy to the city. The shear volume of activities and places to experience is overwhelming and exhilarating. From the large crowed clubs, to the intimate milonga; from weekly outdoor markets to hidden movie theaters, Buenos Aires is an exciting place to live with much to offer. Though clearly tied to Mediterranean culture, Argentina has managed to create an identity all it’s own. The tango, whose birthplace was in the Rio de la Plata, is just one of those indicators. Culturally rich in literature and film, the prolific artists of Buenos Aires use it as their muse to great effect.
