THE SMITH HOUSE
This light frame construction project served as the introduction to drafting with CAD software. Some of the basic residential construction methods touched upon include continuous concrete footings supporting ladder-framed, eight-inch thick by nine-foot tall foundation walls, exposing parging above grade. Engineered wood joists support the sub-floor material and Engineered truss framing supports the roof structure, with a slope of 7/12. A minimum headroom of eight-feet has been provided for.

R E S I D E N T I A L 1.2THE REVIT HOUSE
Working in REVIT introduced BIM (Building Information Model) and parametric CAD software. It revolutionizes drafting and the speed at which changes can be applied to drawings and demands a deeper understanding of a project’s design specifics of its users. For this project we practiced splitting wall finishing construction from wood clapboard to wood shakes, legend and schedule customization for doors and windows, and site settings like property lines and entourage.
A U T O C A D1.3THE NAIT DOCKS RENOVATION
Second semester working drawings required students to complete an existing construction measure-up of a public study area in the NAIT Engineering Annex. After the existing drawings were completed, demolition and new construction drawings were started. Included was a door and window schedule and a final report containing all notes and sketches made up during the measure-up, as well as full size drawings on 36 x 24 sheets.

C O M M E R C I A L 1.3THE NAIT KAHOOTS DORMITORY
Working drawings and detailing from second semester through fourth semester included the application of my dormitory design from design studio to a fully laid-out set of construction document drawings. Kahoots transitions from brick veneer cavity walls on the main floor to a stuccoed Exterior Insulation Finishing System (EIFS) on the second and third floors. The upper floors cantilever at 1.2 meters at certain points and includes a warm soffit design.
“Design must reflect the practical and aesthetic in business, but above all, good design must primarily serve people.”

THE NAIT KAHOOTS DORMITORY
The NAIT dormitory design project was started in the second semester and became the platform for a great majority of work, even beyond design studio. Tasked with creating a fully functional student housing complex that included mixed-use retail on the main floor, the dormitory designs have been incorporated into several other courses, including working drawings, detailing and building code. The inspiration for my design was based on the collaborative nature of much of the technical programs offered at NAIT. I aimed for an economical space by maximizing mixed uses and living quarters capacity.

CANADIAN WESTERN BANK BRANCH DESIGN
One of the most comprehensive projects involved designing and presenting a Canadian Western Bank branch located on a hypothetical Edmonton site. At the beginning of the third semester the class of Architectural Technologists met with CWB agents who presented program requirements including areas, uses, design ideals and graphic standards which were to be used to create a sustainable, innovative, functional building that was aesthetically pleasing and provided strong CWB corporate identity. My inspiration came from the industrious beehive, providing a social and constructive environment for workers and for clients.

TOMBSTONE TERRITORIAL PARK
In my second semester of design studio at NAIT I was tasked with designing a tourist information centre inspired by the geography and historical context of the surrounding National Park. My site was located in Yukon’s Tombstone Territorial Park named for Tombstone mountain located near Grizzly Lake. Inspired by the mountainous, craggy region and the Tr’ondek Hwech’in first nation’s traditional sod house, My visitor centre is partially entrenched into the landscape while also providing an ideal viewing area contained within a glazed segment evoking the majesty of the Tombstone peak.

TEMPLUM ANTONINUS AND FAUSTINA
Learning the history of the built environment was a focus during the first year of studies at NAIT. The course required groups to research and build a scale model of a famous building within a certain time period (which was randomly assigned to the group). What now exists as the Church of San Lorenzo of Miranda in the Forum of Rome, Italy, was built in 141 A.D. in tribute to the wife of Roman ruler Antoninus Pius whose name was Faustina and who was deified by the Senate for her benevolent deeds. Upon his own death, Pius was deified and his name added to the Temple’s entablature. 21 steps led the way to a portico including six monolithic cipolino marble columns.

THE AMES ROOM
The think-space project was assigned at the end of the first semester at NAIT. The goal was to take a client (which we were allowed to select and research) and design a space that reflected the qualities and/or characteristics of that client. I selected David Blaine, a popular illusionist, born in Brooklyn, NY. His birth place and his roots in street performing were the inspiration to create a mock subway station, and designed after an “Ames room”, in keeping with his career as an illusionist. The room is trapezoidal and the floor inclined at a diagonal creating the illusion of an occupant growing and shrinking as they walk from one corner to the other.
