A WRITER’S RESIDENCENorth Dumfries, Ontario
Situated on Taylor Lake as part of an artists’ community, A Writer’s Residence is a temporary location for writers to re-flect and be inspired. When approaching the unit from the north side, the stone retaining wall prevents any views into the Residence, except for the writer’s workspace. It is private and isolated yet they are only footsteps away from the other units located on the site. The simplicity of the space provides a calm environment for the writer.Upon arrival at the entrance the bridge provides a connec-tion between the wooded area surrounding and the Resi-dence. The writer can work anywhere in the unit from the provided workspace to the bedroom and the living space. The south-facing glass wall can be opened up to provide ac-cess to the deck.

Pleopontus[plee-on ‘abdomen’, pon-tuhs ‘bridge’]
The Rideau Canal is a historical landmark integral to the urban fabric of the City of Ottawa and it doubles as an outdoor skating rink in the winter. Although several bridges span the canal, only one, which is located at the north end of the canal, is uniquely for pedestrians. By increasing services to the walkable community, the city will encourage and support more sustainable lifestyles. The Pleopontus will be a pedestrian bridge offering an alternative route for those traveling in the south end of the city, just beyond the traffic-heavy Bronson Bridge at Dow’s Lake.Formally, the bridge mimics the pleon, the abdomen of a crustacean. Each segment of the pleon is represented in the structure by retractable pods that allow the passing of water vehicles. The movement of the two pleons that come together to form the bridge are inspired by the molting of the decapod crustacean. When fully extended, the weight of the pods is counter-balanced by a spring mechanism that is attached from pod to pod, while the central interlocking system prevents collapse.

A DESERT RETREATTABAAS, IRAN
Latitude 33 33’ 55” N Longitude 56 58’ 56” E Elevation 771.0 m
The O’COOL’US, a play on the original latin term ‘Oculus’, provides a cool, humidified retreat for weary desert travelers, looking for an escape from the scorching sun and the hot dry air. Why an Oculus? For the tired and thirsty traveller, optical illu-sions would be plentiful as they trek across the seemingly-endless horizon of the desert. The O’COOL’US, would be an ironic relief for this trav-eller, as they gaze on this very real eye catching oasis in the middle of the desert. Cool, right?

OCULUSThe oculus’ round opening at the top provides natural light-ing within, and also allows the rising hot air to escape.
NICHESThe dual-purpose niches provide cool concrete seating ar-eas, while maximizing the heat dissipation across the increased internal surface area.
VENTSMultiple vents prvides 360’ outlet for the humidified air inte the space.
POOLThe incoming outside air passes over the surface of the pool. The water humidifies the air entering the space within the oasis.

PHOEBE STThe Canadian Centre for Architecture (CCA) Archive is located on the corner of Spadina Ave and Phoebe street. Three (3)cube lanterns surrounds by the granite box bares the entrance, archive, cafe and research areas. The narrow building improves the natural lighting for the building, and creates a valley that connects Spadina Avenue to the existing park, which is hidden behind the archive.
