URBAN CROSS
Located in Queens, New York an old train station that was no longer in use was in need of renovation. Solving the problems by incorporating:-stairs that are more than stairs-integration of the bicycle -expression of culture -questioning of the ground plane -installation of programmatic diversity

“THE MORE SUCCESSFULLY A CITY MINGLES EVERY-DAY DIVERSITY OF USES AND USERS IN ITS EVERYDAY STREETS, THE MORE SUCCESSFULLY, CASUALLY (AND ECONOMICALLY) ITS PEOPLE THEREBY ENLIVEN AND SUPPORT WELL-LOCATED PARKS THAT CAN THUS GIVE BACK GRACE AND DELIGHT TO THEIR NEIGHBORHOODS.”
-JANE JACOBS Structural components cre-ate interior spaces which also express openness. Procession is influenced by an ungulating parti. In attempt to bring together the community as well as businesses adjacent or at the endpoints of queensway, nodes along the pathway en-courage indirectly forced visitation. Bicycles were an important aspect of the rapid transportation in this area, factoring in as a major focal point for the design.
Combining ramps and stairs that question the ground plane puts the ground lev-el and the upper level on a similar course psycho-logically. Interior spaces on the bottom floor have parameters delegated from the exisiting structure. These spaces incorporate the cultural aspect with temporary market venues.
CLIFTON LIBRARYREMODEL

The original library lacked multiple components which were driving factors of the design:
-cultural expression
-connection to cityscape
-community engagement
This design focuses on implementing those factors back into the cityscape with this library.

REJUVE-N-AID
Coral Reefs are in danger because of the threat of global warming. These coral reefs perform better in a cooler temperatures. Through a water purifying system via the main hub structure, rain water is collected and then filtered, distilled and then chilled. The water will then begin to be enhanced and this underwater habitat is saved from perish. The coral reefs serve as a home to many sea creatures. The port cities of the world will have plenty of protein to last them, contrary to years passed. In preparation for a disastorous storm, the modular structures that branch off of the main hub serve as temporary shelters and residencies. Below the sea line, laboratories provide the chemists and engineers a space for making these structures more progressive.

Winnipeg, Minnesota is host to the forks, which is a path that connects two end-points. Dissecting the history of the area, we started with a simple ribbed structure such as the canoe, which is a vernacular reference to the Lewis and Clark historic trail. Two geodesic hemispheres union together to establish a wooden igloo ideal. By allowing the structure to unveil its dynamic space, these triangular panels work together to stabalize eachother the ribbed connections that symbolized the canoe.

CARDBOARD INSTALLATION
COLLABORATIVE
PROGRAMS USED:form-ZAUTOcad
A group of around 25 individuals worked together to self assemble this installa-tion which acts as device to deafen the sound that this atrium space exhibits on a daily basis. The lattice structure design resembles a water fall motif. There was nothing used to connect the cardboard with the exception of an adhesive.

TATTOO STUDIO
INDIVIDUAL
PROGRAMS USED:hand drawing
physical models
Focusing on the building as a “skin”, a mixed-use commercial and residential structure insipired by the art of tattooing was assembled. The aspects in this studio was reliant on the art form of tattooing as a catalyst for building design along with space-making and assembly rather than form-making. Model making was a big tool for the exploration of these spaces.
06
TRANSPARENT PROCESSION
Dividing the building into three compartments made this section model a prime tool for the exploration between spaces on the x-y planar activity. The intricate spaces show how the variation of floor + height levels enrich the procession through the spaces.
INVERSING THE RAUMPLAN
The delicate and grueling process of the Japanese tattoo meant that these spaces need-ed to simulate a procession from the lobby to the stations. In harmony with the tattoo process, the spaces are similarly intricate, which establishes a ceremonial experi-ence.

This building’s program is to contain a leasable retail space on the ground floor of approximately 1700 sq. ft., with a floor of leasable office space on the sec-ond level that is approximately 4000 sq. ft. Beginning on the third floor and ris-ing to the fifth are the 11 residential units (shown left) containing 2 bedrooms per unit. The concept of this building is to deliberately balance the order and proportions of the historic guidelines while also implementing certain modern ele-ments that idolize innovation. The Base, Middle, Top hierarchy is exemplified with the transparency throughout the base, larger doublehung windows embracing the mid-dle and smaller double hung windows to represent the top. The glazed stair tower is one of the modern elements that seamlessly separates the adjacent building. The brick veneer on the second floor symbolizes a historic feel, while the large fixed arched windows highlight the modern element of stripped detailing. The lightweight concrete paneling that is used for the exterior above gives new opportunity to the area.

WINNING ENTRY FOR PARAMETRIC DESIGN / FULL-SCALE DIGITAL FABRICATION
Voxelation focuses around a single-card geometry that interlocks with one anoth-er to create a structurally sound, artistic representation of 3D pixels. Voxels, are, by definition, an array of elements of volume that constitute a 3-dimensional space. The project emphasizes how a repetitive shape can create a distinct form, which can be reconstructed into an endless array of configurations.
