  • Infl atability Conditions of inflatability. Explanation.The leg as inflatable object became a point of departure. A series of balloons, aggregated together begins to shape the form. Thus the bubble becomes our initial unit.

    The BubbleThe bulbous form.

    The bulbous, even grotesque shapes of acrylic paint bounce light from canvas rendering of the 1765 Jean-Honor Fragonard artwork Swarm of Cupids. The work suggests airy, ethereal forms, gathered in clumps that accumulate and disperse almost extemporaneously. Amorphous form and the light nature of these subjects inspired the idea of inflation and progression of form as membranes. Encouraged to stay away from the contrived, our group was urged to pursue a dichotomy between membrane and fi ll, investigating ideas of density, porosity, structure, and part to whole relationships.

    GenesisStudy of Rococo Art

    Assembly The Bubble and the Brick.

    The Unit The Plaster Bubble

    The Method Chemical Process Joining

    Stacking vs. Stack and tesselate.

    Instead of directly copying any specifi c bricklaying bond the Bubbles were aggregated into 5 diagrammatical assemblies: the hexagon, diamond, pyramid, prism, and branch. These assemblies were used to create conditions of stability within the given envelope of this pavilion. Mock-ups were constructed to test the usefulness of these assemblies and determine which orientations would be most effective for aggregating.

    The original bubble. Discovered at 3am during late night experiments before a studio pin up.

    The plaster to plaster bond ended up being the solution that best provided stability and gave us an aesthetic we were happy with.

    Failed Experiments Included:+ Casting with Rubber / Latex / Resin / Cement / Foam / Fiberglass / + 3D Printed Plastic connections were tested as well.

    Modularity and unit aggregation were themes explored by each studio. Our group studied the brick and the history of Louis Kahn at Penn and his infatuation with brick masonry.

    Essentially each course was a laid as headers with the drip points facing the exterior and the balloon removal opening facing the interior.

    Aggregation CatalogueBubbles on Bubbles on Bubbles.

    Catalogue of orientations for the aggregation of the bubbles. Nearly 700 bubbles were produced to erect the pavilion and the multitude of bubble combinations is illustrated here. Every single bubble was unique, so building the pavilion required a logical assembly and each connection between bubble groups was essentially a bespoke connection.

  • NARRATIVE

    The music. It is so loud, so so insanely loud. To the point that actually trying to listen is pointless. Forget about it, feel it, just go with it. Its fades after a while, trust me. The sea of people drowning in the waves of the music, their bodies like buoys bouncing and bobbing off each other. Everyone unaware but subconsciously in rhythm with the relentless repetitious pounding of the music. Every tone, every crescendo and crash, the buoys maneuver.

    Tall, short, dark, light, thin and thick, all.. just buoys. Regaled in endless amounts of beads, and minimum amounts of clothes, the skin is taught in its youth. As the buoys float, pushed around in the waves again and again they are unphased, incessant on the motion that sets them free. Like a river that is at once calm and crashing. Its timeless, endless.

    It doesnt matter who they are. Each has lost their identity. They are each, unspecifi c, just another particle in the ocean of sound and light and emotion. As the current drifts, it is unrelenting, and omnipotent. It takes what it needs, nothing less, and nothing more. As the light makes its way above the horizon, the boundless swarm awakens from its trance and slowly but surely departs the ocean of hedonism, one by one, buoy by buoy, once again assuming their masks and returning to life outside the carnival.

    The rave is essentially a party, which is what I want to bring to the waterfront of Philadelphia. However, the rave is also a subcultural phenomenon. A collage of people, sound, light, movement, all pushed to the large scale. This collage is meant to subvert the existing fabric of the Spring garden corridor and bring change. Perhaps for the better, perhaps not.

    RESEARCH MAPPING 02 // VACANT LOTS + PUBLIC EVENT SPACE

    RESEARCH MAPPING 01 // DELAWARE TO SCHUYLKILL

    Vacant Spaces of PhiladelphiaEvent Space of Philadelphia

    Map 01 displays the distances and timeintervals between festival pier and Delaware River to waypoints along the path to the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the Schuylkill River.

    This process was fi rst meant to understandthe effective distant for convient walking tosuch a prominent event space in Philly.

    However, while actually out walking the route I discovered the plethora of vacant lots in north Philadelphia. This was a key shift for this project.

    Map 02 is a catalog of spaces in North Philadelphia running from the site on the Delaware River westward towards the Schuylkill River.

    The heavy disparity between vacant space, which doesn't include abandoned buildings, and the amount of event space speaks to the neglect and reduction in density that north Philadelphia suffers from.

  • Network created between the median points of all vacant and event spaces mapped in research phase.

    A datum is set up in order to create a focused region where the analysis and generation take place.

    The fi eld created by this network is distorted by the density of vacant spaces in this section of Philadelphia based on a walkable distance algorithm.

    Each adjusted fi eld point is attached to an X-Axis array of vectors leading from the datum to Festival Pier.

  • An additional fi eld is created. These + notations are spaced based on a mean distance algorithm between vacant spaces.

    The remapped vectors are altered once more by site conditions. This new set of mapped vectors generates a cluster of ribbons which segment the space within the site. This segmentation is the departure point for programmatic and formal generation.

    The vector array created in diagram 4 is remapped based on proximity to clusters of vacant spaces. This remapping effects how the vectors interact with site edges.

    West Philadelphia is in desperate need of recreational space. Parks, playgrounds, community centers, swimming pools and just about any other recreational program you can think of are not surprising missing from the context of lower income west Philadelphia neighborhoods.

    Parks + Rec seeks to imbed a recreational faciility complete with community center, park, playground, and a new type of residential unit into the fabric of west Philly.

    With UPenn investment boundary recently extended to 57th street this site, located at 59th and Market is in prime position for development.

A melting pot of seasonal event space, community outreach, public art gallery, and renewed architectural engagment with the oft forgotten Delaware waterfront. The project will consist of a new landscape with the built program sitting almost lightly as a beacon of adventure and fun in the new waterfront event sapce.

    The linear event diagram was folded onto itself to create a circular version. This diagram was the inspiration for the form. This circular form allows the building to situate itself autonomously on an awkward coastal site as well emphasis the cyclical nature of the calendar and the purpose for which the architecture is to be used. A circle can also be entered from any direction as there is no front or back, only inside or outside, which is how the program becomes further defi ned.

Located on what is currently the western shore of Fishtown, and lively and up-in-coming neighborhood of North Philadelphia.
