Rock Table SeriesDenver, CO, 2013Demiurge LLC
A series of tables custom designed tables originally produced for a Denver-based interior design firm. I utilized Rhino and Grasshopper to set up an iterative time-based script and delivered numerous sets of 3 tables for the client to select from. These tables were then fabricated using a combination of digital and analog methods and painted with a high-grade automotive finish.Various additional finishes and iterations are produced on demand.

Vaulted Willow Edmonton, AB, Canada, 2014Marc Fornes and THEVERYMANY, Demiurge LLC
Vaulted Willow is an architectural folly exploring lightweight, self-supported shells through the development of custom computational protocols of structural form-finding and descriptive geometry. The project’s aim is to resolve and delineate structure, skin and ornamentation into a single unified system.
Demiurge was contracted to build this sculpture - to that end, I worked with Marc Fornes and THEVERYMANY to rationalize and optimize the form of the sculpture with particular attention to the planarity and bending mode of the flat shingles. The form was also optimized with respect to material sizing and layout particular to the fabrication method we were using. I coordinated all material, fasteners, and finish specifications, and installation and logistics planning to install this piece in Edmonton, AB, CA.

Idea TreeSan Jose, CA, 2013Demiurge LLC for Soo-in Yang, Lifethings Studio
A complex assemblage of parts developed and fabricated for Soo-in Yang of Lifethings Studio, based in Seoul, South Korea. This project involved many fabrication processes, including 5-axis milling of foam, molding, casting, and engineered concrete design. Grasshopper and custom Processing components played a crucial role in streamlining the fabrication design and jig and template production.I worked closely with Arup San Francisco to optimize the structural design with respect to technical detailing and installation.

OLYMPUS Mexico HeadquartersMexico City, 2015Forum Studio
Schematic Design through Documentation of a Corporate Workspace for Japanese imaging company Olympus at their Mexico City headquarters. The scheme relies on a “hub” which is wrapped in aluminum fins and dichroic glass to physically and spatially connect the program-specific spaces of technology, repair, and education with open office and common space.

St. Louis College of PharmacySt. Louis, MO, 2016Forum Studio
A multi-functional campus building, this project will give this small professional school a student center, dining hall, gymnasium, and student housing. I worked primarily on enclosure design, specification and cordination. The combination of butt glazed curtain wall and pre-cast panels requires a high degree of cordination and precision, from designing a fritt pattern through drawing, samples, mock-ups, testing, specification, and construction administration.

443 Wabash Ave Mixed UseChicago, IL, 2014Forum Studio
Multi-use tower and plaza. A pedestrian plaza is abutted by a podium of retail and parking from which two towers rise. The taller tower holds residential units, the shorter, hotel rooms. The towers share a gradiated curtain wall detail which finds expression on the residential skin as small balconies and in the hotel facade as a simple mullion detail.

Queretaro Town CenterQueretaro, Mexico 2015Forum Studio
Master Planning, Urban Design, and Architecture proposal for a new town center adjacent to the first American state university to open a campus in Mexico - University of Arkansas. The architecture and planning take inspiration from the geological formations and natural topography of the site, as well as vernacular typologies. Planning and Architectural design completed as part of an invited competition in partnership with Mayer Hasbani.

COMMERCIAL ZONESProgram allocation reinforces the movement and den-sification of people by focusing small scale commercial in the city center adjacent to the main street and plaza.
RESIDENTIAL AND HOTELResidences are stacked above commercial zones to densify the city center and create an urban corridor. Hotel and amenities are added in later phases.
GREEN BOULEVARDSGreen boulevards and roof terraces are provided over-head and through the downtown area to further unify the disctrict and encourage pedestrian movement.
PARKINGVehicular parking and access to mass transit are provided off the main street, reducing vehicular traf-fic through the main pedestrian areas.
