The Building: This was a barracks on what was a Naval training facility that now has become a new city that is nearly self sustaining. With post tension slabs the 7 story building is very limiting on its possibilities.
The Problem: Create a sustainable structure that can accommodate as many luxury apartments as possible while creating a community inside of the building while tying the building to the outside city.

Reclaimed water off of the roofs goes into bio sand fi ltration tank
for later use as potable water.
Large overhangs and solar shad-ing devices cover the windows and balconies from excessive heat gain.
ICF (insulated concrete forms) are used to keep out the harsh Florida
heat for a more sustainable structure
Existing Structure to be remodeled
Green roofs insulate the buildings while providing a communal space.

The Lamp: Our goal for the fi rst digital fabrication project was to design a lamp in Rhinoceros 3D and introduce the class to the new laser cutter.
The Problem: Learn the process of creating a digital model, run scripts to piece the model together, and then to fl atten it to send to the laser cutter.
CorelDRAW Rhinoceros 3D Autodesk AutoCAD
The Solution: Create a lamp that can be made cheap and effi ciently. The lamp is simple to assemble and was designed to be adjustable to fi t the wants of the user along with the color for their likeness.

The Building: To create a sculptural / archi-tectural element that can be inhabited or used at a human scale. The object also needed to be modeled in 3D and needed to utilize the laser cutter. The Problem: Design a 3D model based off of a
classmates sketch that best represents our inter-pretation of their idea.

The Solution: Create a twin high rise that react to each other along with the history and culture of the city. The shorter tower (tower 2) is the residential tower and the taller tower (tower 1) is the offi ce and hotel tower. The base is parking and the high end offi ces. All of these are based off of the program and square footage requirements.
