It is through our lived body experience that we connect to places around us. this project aims to explore the experiential connection with the sites prime location by engaging the user in a kinesthetic and sensory experience of space, light and texture. floridas climate, and fort lauderdales varied entertainment areas, as well as proximity to the beach, retail and restaurant areas make this a prime location for tourists and residents alike.
The project aims to act as an extension of the adjacent beach by allowing users to interact with each other though sensory stimuli. this provides occupants with a feeling of belong-ing to the environment, and forms a strong memory of the space.

Proposed Masterplan
The proposed Masterplan called for the implementation of different methods of interconectivity among specified anchor points across the area. The main pedestrian connection throught the area would be a boardwalk which, by adapting to the different conditions of the area it would intersect, would provide a lively and dynamic experience for residents and tourists alike.
The area was to be divided into three sectors. A formal sector, a semi-formal section, and a casual section. the formal section would consist of the closing of Banyan Rd for vehicle use and the implementation of retail storefront at the ground level and mixed use development at the upper levels throughout the lenght of the the road, finally culminating in a marina.
The more semi-formal area of Las Olas & A1A would consist of the closing of Almond Avenue for vehicular access (see Section B ) and the implementation of retail and cafes to serve the adjacent beach area. To the south of that main inter-section, a more casual area would be developed, which would include a gallery, a food truck area and a renovation of the

The project was envisioned as a way to provide an anchor point to the beach area, able to be ac-cessed from the most important areas of the master-plan, such as almond ave. and the Las Olas Blvd transportation hub. Also, it aims to explore the relationship between the cultural activities of the area and its natural surroundings. The Fort Lauderdale Beach center is the result of a previous
master-plan study of the area. Based on that study, it was determined that the are was in need of some major mixed use development which could follow
the previously mentioned connections to the BeachWalk area.

The Aquarium complex at-tempts to serve as an extension of the beach area at ground levels, while also allowing the upper levels for enhanced views of the site at dif-ferent terraces. It serves as not only a cultural but also an educational hub and provides activities which promote a sus-tainable relationship between human and marine species. The complex features several aquariums varying in size, which house a plethora of sea creatures, from jellyfish to sharks and eels, and features a coral reef aquarium and sea turtle exhibit, which intends to help educate in the preservation of local wildlife. Additionately, the complex features an auditorium, cafe, and gift shop.

ORGAN REGENERATION PROCESS:
1. Genetic Material is collected from the patient and grown. 2. Organs are brought in. Genetic material is washed by the use of special chemicals in a 2-step process, leaving a skeleton devoid of any genetic information. 3. Clean organ is infused with genetic material of the future patient 4. Cells are allowed to migrate to the tissue, resulting in a perfect match for the future patient. 1

This project aims to play up the balance be-tween reality and fantasy, staticity and mo-tion, and the idea of merging biology and mechanics, to create a biological machine.
The Organ Regeneration Lab takes inspira-tion from the view of the human body as a machine, and uses the concept of the assem-bly line, first created by Henry Ford, to allow for the re-utilization of otherwise discarded human organs. By utilizing a systematic ap-proach to organ regeneration, a second chance is allowed for thousands of patientswho die annuallydue to lacking compatible donors.

The facility features a covered area where bikes can be rented, as well as a designated area for citizens to park their own bicycles. the facility also contains lockers, and chaging rooms with showers, as well as a small bike repair shop. Finally, it contains an open cafe where users can enjoy a drink or have breakfast before heading to work.
The central portion of the facility is open to the elements, and serves as a connection between the street and the library.
All of this provides downtown Ft. Lauderdale with an architectural solution for the issue of poor alternative methods of transportation by creating support facilities that en-courage the use of such ways of movemente throughout the city.

The concept of motion and movement drives the design of this outdoor space with the use of wooden frames which change in proportion, creating an organic shape that changes the traditional notion of wall, floor and roof by uniting them into a fluid form. The series of frames are held together lat-erally by the use of cross members which run through them and create an interesting play with light and shadow as well as forms
Its location, right on the center of Fort Lau-derdale, allows for more exposure of the fa-cility and its purpose and encourages citiz-es to use alternative modes of transportation.

The site is located on the South East corner of Broward Boulevard and An-drews Avenue in downtown Ft. Lauderdale. It was chosen as a convenient location for the project because of its proximity to the Ft. Lauderdale main bus terminal, which is located across the street, as well as adjacencies to the business district. Because of its centralized location The walkway gives citizens the oportunity to connect to the main library while also allowing for a unique experience that transitions into the park area.

The design of the matrix construct explored many different concepts of spatial interactions. Some of these concepts included interlocking spaces, spac-es within spaces, and collision of forms. Another idea which was explored in the 3 dimensional composi-tion, included the metaphorical reference to the stairs in Eisenmans House X. This was achieved by verti-cally stepping up the spaces in a systematic way.
The composition was additionally a study of 90 de-gree angles versus 45 degree diagonals After carefully measuring the area that joins FAUs Higher Education Complex and the Sun Sentinel Building in Ft. Lauder-dale, several matrices were developed and studied. They graphically represented the relationship between different elements of the site, such as columns, veg-etation and streets. Principles of hierarchy, repetition and rhythm were then used to develop a final version of the matrix. This matrix was then set against a fa-

Main Concept: To design a series of open galleryspaces resulting from several 2-D matrix and siteanalysis diagrams. The Matrices were developedby carefully studying both natural and man madeproperties of the site, and the surrounding areas.The site, located in Pompano Beach, overlooks the Hillsboro Inlet, which offers a panoramic view the Hillsboro Inlet, which offers a panoramic view of the Atlantic Ocean and the historic lighthouse.
The next step in the design process consisted ofadding linear elements to the final deconstructive matrix. This helped define the volumetric spaces in further detail, which aided in the creation of thestudy construct model shown below. Henceforth, the original 2-D matrix was then transformed into a 3-D volumetric compositiona 3-D volumetric composition.

Spatial Building Construct
Main Concept: To design a series of open gallery spaces resulting from several 2-d matrices and site analysis dia-grams. The Matrices were developed by carefully study-ing both natural and artificial properties of the site and its surrounding areas. The site, located in Pompano Beach, overlooks the Hillsboro Inlet, offering panoramic views of the Atlactic Ocean.
After completing the 2-D matrix drawing, process models known as deconstructive matrices were produced. The models were then used as a basis for establishing the volumetiric composition of the 3 dimensional matrix. Finally, the major gestures of the site were incorporated hierarchically, with a cen-trally dominating space acting as a datum to secondary and tertiary spaces.

The final design of the 3- dimensional construct was a direct result of the interaction between the final ma-trix, and the 3-D volumetric composition.
Initially, shapes that followed the pattern lines of the matrix where chosen for spatial definition. Two ma-trix lines that formed a strong axis across the site were chosen to serve as a datum for the remaining spaces. Then, the views of the site, the sun path, and other analysis diagrams were studied to determine the location of the different areas, as well as indoor vs. outdoor spaces. Finally, the horizontal matrix was turned vertically to help further define the angled
The interaction between different levels of transpar-encies further defined the spaces and the filtering of light throughout the design. Solid planes were de-fined by using aluminum, while mylar was utilized to infer a semi-transparent finish. Finally, mesh was used to express a greater degree of transparency within the composition. 44 | 45

ROOF DESIGN: In order to maximize contact with nature while keeping the area pro-tected from the rain, a moveable roof design was created, which consisted of wedge-shaped aluminum frames with fabric type-canvas material. It is a rotating mechanism which provides flexibility in deciding the degree of en-closure desired.

CONCRETE MASONRY PAVILLION Synergy of Man & Nature
CONCEPT: Unity of the 4 elements of nature : EARTH WIND FIRE & WATER
Designed along a radial grid, the pavilion incorporates the main axis points of the given site and relates them to the main for elements of life, showcasing each one in one of four walls that enclose the space. EARTH: Showcased by a green wall, allows visitors to enjoy a direct interaction of the concrete block with nature, made possible by openings in the wall itself, while also allowing for vines to grow in between. WIND: : Represented by the use of rows of con-crete block turned on its side to allow for maximum airflow. Structurally, they are supporte BY the use of a frame, which is also made of concrete masonry units. FIRE: Showcased by the use of turned concrete block and colored glass, which gives a warmth glow to the enclosed main space. Water: Cre-ates fluidity and also serves to cool the space by facing south.
