With the emergence o new manuacturingtrends (clean, small scale, data-driven hyper-customization, service oriented), actories andspaces o material production could once againtake advantage o the urban environment -not only as source o labor, but also or itsconnectivity, accessibility and proximity tomarkets, intelligence, and exchange.
Downtown Los Angeles provides a primeopportunity or a new center o uture
manuacturing with its existing and propoinrastructural connections, its leading andgrowing importance in logistical ows andcultural production. A relatively under-developed and under-dened area, it isa site to experiment and exploit the newrelationships between the city and the spaco production and consumption, and callor new inrastructural strategies, buildinginterventions, and urban experiences.

The future of manufacturing -

Recent technological developmentshas greatly expanded the capabilities ocustomization in multiple industries,allowing smaller scale production to meet abigger diversity in demands.
With the prolieration o I technologiesand networked business activities ,manuacturers are ever more responsive to

60 Broad Street suers rom poor natural day-lighting and air circulation - a problem knownas sick building syndrome - which is prevalentin many glass towers constructed during 1970sin New York City. Afliated single-client leasesare ractured among various oor levels, creating
working conditions that inhibit collaborationand exibility.
Tis retrot strategy pairs new methods
o inhabitant connectivity with passiveventilation and natural daylighting torecirculate people and recirculate air. Te goo the retrot strategy is to positively alter theinternal lie o the building, drive down energcosts and decrease carbon emissions. Tis is
accomplished via a double-skin cladding thathouses perimeter stairwells and programmatibreakout nodes.

Using both program and

information and ideas.
InTe Strength of Weak ies, sociologistMark Granovetter demonstrateda model o understanding humanrelationships through strong vs. weaties. He argued that strong ties connecpeople through similarity and tend
to orm closed loops, while weak ties(acquaintances) more oten propagatenew ideas and opportunities.
However, all relationships are importanin their own ways in the entrepreneuriprocess.

A wall has two surfaces, each
having its own distinctive
qualities - materiality, public/
private, opacity, etc.
These qualities and their
relationships are
re-dened by delaminatingthese two surfaces.
Te apartment unit is here examinedmore closely - the relationships betweeninterior and exterior suraces wereinverted by the delamination operation.
By reconsidering the public/privateand materiality o the inverted unit, wepropose an atrium complex in whichunits looks into each other and thedissemination programs below. All units
o the atrium are connected by a spiralramp system on which residents andguests may circulate through blurredprivate/public zones o each unit as theyhead to the incubators below, or to theoutdoor amenities on the roo level.

We live in a world o atmosphericdiversity - countless human creations,traditions, rituals, behaviors, andsensibilities o dierent groups o peoplecan be directly or indirectly related tothe atmospheric environment o a certaintime and place that they inhabit in.
However, the global diaspora o air-conditioned environments has greatlyneutralized many o these experienceswith the wide-spread notions o moderncomort and modern environmentalcontrol equipments.
Museum environments are amongthe most controlled, conditionedenvironments. Te Museum o Diasporachallenges the normative enironment by
providing curators the opportunity tointegrate the atmospheric environment othe museum into the curation process.
Te Museum o Diaspora challengescurators to include another sensorydimension to the museum experience.Te air can enhance, contrast, inducecomort/discomort, producephysiological eects or museum exhibits,the air can even be the exhibit itsel.
The diaspora of air-conditioned
environments has neutralized
the atmospheric diversity of

Te current acade o the Adidas SportsPerormance Store is a regularized glassscurtain wall system. We wanted to
introduce a united system that has thepotential to create a more sculptural,engaging screen to break the severityo the current mullion grid, and takeadvantage o the wide street crossing - aprime opportunity or the viewer to seethe entire acade at street level.
A unitized panel system that
creates a 3-dimensional,

Site: School in Lionwe, Malawi
Filtro-Kiosk is a specially developed bricksystem to construct a wall that is able to carrythe ow o water through cascading levels andmultiple ltration units. Tese ltration kiosksare sited in a school in Malawi, where waterinrastructure is under-developed and mainaccess to water are through water kiosks. Te
goal is not only to provide or useable water, butto also visualize the ltration process, and createa visually and ambiently compelling space.

The intervention for bringing
fresh water will be at the scale
and type similar to existing
water kiosks, presently the
predominant water source in
Lilongwe.
Water kiosks present an eective way odelivering sae drinking water to urbancommunities where there is a basicdomestic supply network in place. Tesupply network may lack the capacityto support the connection o individualhouseholds but water kiosks oer a wayto dispense drinking water using existingcapacity.
Te Filtro-Kiosk will encorporate a waterholding wall at the scale o a typical kiosk.
Te goal is not only to supplement cleanwater through ltration, but also servean educational purpose by visualizing theow o water and ltration process.

Aerated concrete is a light weightstructural concrete, created by a mixtureo concrete and aluminum powder, whichgenerates hydrogen bubbles during thecuring process.Te trapped bubbles o hydrogen
ultimately evaporates and creates smallclosed cell air pocket in the concrete.
We hypothesize that by manipulatingthe amount o aluminum added into themixture, the density o the cell structurescan then be manipulated, allowing ow owater at a rate to be determined.
A kiosk that would not only
provide ltered water, butalso visualize the ltration
process, and create a visually
and acoustically interesting
place.
Te ltro-wall system may tap intoexisting grey water acilities on site, andtake advantage o the terrain to introdunaturally owing water. Given theeducational purpose o the site, and theevaporative cooling eects and acousticambience o owing water, the waterkiosks may extend beyond utilitarian uand become a place that is communal,educational, and compelling.

For the Bunker Lot in the Bronx, NewYork, we revisit the notion o load-bearingmasonry construction through exploring thepossibilities o precast concrete construction.Rather than the stacking o purely generic,mass-produced blocks(such as bricks, stoneblocks or CMUs, as traditionally used), we
propose exploiting the contemporary abilityto manuacture highly-designed buildingcomponents, and seek to simultaneously addrbuilding unctions other than structure such athe enclosure and mechanical systems throughmasonry construction.
