ATRIO

Built of modular construction, the design of the midrise residential apartments complex is based off the idea, form, and function of an atom. The idea of the nucleus in the form of an enclosed atrium creates a high concentrated area of community interaction. The amenity spaces of the building serve as the moving electrons, influencing patron interaction as well as influencing public vs. private involvement with the use of green-deck spaces. The layout of trapezoidal-shaped units create a curvilinear form that draws in people through its convex and concave interaction with the podium. The entire design was created to follow the Priority Green Expedited sustainable requirements.

After 14’ and 11’ module exploration and target costs analysis evaluation, the idea of the trapezoidal units were to combine both sizes to create a module that would optimize views and lighting, while maximizing rentable square footage. Prioritizing social and desirable spaces closest to the windows to allow maximum light for the program, while also putting mechanical-electrical-plumbing systems towards the least light spaces, allowing for easy connection during modular placement.

ATRIO: SUSTAINABILITY

One of the design goals of the building was to follow Seattle’s Priority Green Expedited sustainable requirements. With a water collection system for grey water use, solar PV panels to produce 5% of the buildings energy, 50% square footage dedicated to green space, 25% of sq ft dedicated to tree canopy coverage, stacked natural ventilation through the units and atrium, recycled building materials, and storm water collection systems around the sidewalk, influence a sustainable community that is lacking in South Lake Union.

CENTRO CULTURALE di ROMA

A cultural center built in the San Lorenzo neighborhood of Rome, Italy with the intent of stitching together the separate suburbs though manipulated social interaction. The neighborhoods are characterized based on different levels of interaction, and become reflected as the various program boxes. The boxes then are placed within the entirety of the site with the central point of the building becoming the highest level of forced interaction. Through folding planes and open, intersecting spaces, the community is lead to interconnecting communication.

SCULPT STUDIO

A paper mill cooperative studio for artists who create paper using recycled material to create sculptural forms. The intent of the design is to create free flowing spaces in which the entire paper-making process could be viewed from each other. The form is derived from interconnecting the stereometric (concrete) and tectonic (steel/glass) materials to influence a sense of movement and cooperation throughout the building. Working with natural ventilation, wet spaces are placed on the bottom and dry spaces on top for the paper making process.

ECOBSERVATORY

A conceptual project aimed to create an observatory that uses intersecting rectilinear forms to play with daylight that can be accessed from the land and the water. The first level of the structure uses light screens to project designed into the interior. The second level plays with reflected light that enters from holes in the walls and reflects down the tower in the morning, and light that reflects off the water in the evening. The angled orientation of the observatory allows for harsh summer light to stay out and all the winter light for warmth, as well as letting in the cool summer breeze and blocking out the cold winter wind.

CONTEMPORARY RUINS

An architecture/art installment at the Temple of Divus Julius in the Roman Forum. The intent of the design was to mimic the space that was once created by the temple created under Augustus in 44 BC. Two steel walls made of corten steel form the space of the preexisting temple while also giving the appearance aged ruins. Concrete platforms placed in the existing ruins allow for viewed connections towards the rest of the Roman Forum, while also trying to give the experience of being at the height of which the temple floor existed.

TIME CAPSULE PARK

A landscaped art exhibit designed to replace the parking lot in front of Frye Art Museum. With the use of offset rings, patrons are drawn into the park and forced to wander and experience nature and time. Each of the different rings placed in the center of the park, around a sun dial, represent different elements of time. The most inner circle being a wood light bench, that represents time in seconds. The next ring of flowers represents time in days, and the next ring of shrubbery representing months. The final outer edge of trees represent time changing through years, while also serving to hide parking.

HOUSE ON PLUM GROVE

A case study model of a house created by Kazuyo Sejima of SANAA. In the original house, Sejima uses 16mm thick steel with large openings in each room to allow the house to feel open and connected to the outer world. In this project Sejima takes steel and uses it as if it was a stereometric material. In the 1/8” scale model paper was used to represent the thinness of the walls. Creating the 3/4” scale model was the biggest challenge with trying to make the plaster walls as thin as possible to achieve Sejima’s concept.
