Vancouver Sky Train Commercial Broadway Station
The Vancouver Sky Train system was opened for the World Exposition in 1986. Following the success of the original expo line, the Millennium line was created. The commercial Broadway station stands at the convergence of these two lines and is the busiest station in the city. The city of Vancouver has expressed the desire for an iconic station that gracefully handles the site traffic and unifies the complexities of the site.

Many levels of scale were
considered during the design
phase, from a sketch for a
new master plan down to
the station’s joinery details.
Vancouver Sky Train
Mercer Museum Addition
In 1916, Henry C. Mercer erected a six-story concrete castle to house his collection of handmade working objects that the industrial revolution had rendered obsolete. This project envisions an expansion of Mercer’s original museum. Mercer was a gentleman archaeologist who did extensive exploration and mapping of ceremonial caves in Mexico. His experiences there had a strong influence upon his design of the museum. With this in mind, the addition was envisioned as an archaeological dig, where the patron enters below the original structure and emerges in the grand atrium of the original structure.
14
The site plan preserves the majority of open space on the site that the museum uses to house community camps and festivals.
15
The new main entry is a quiet feature that does not obstruct the grandeur of the original museum.
Materials and building forms used on the addition were chosen to be complementary to the original structure.
Mercer Museum Addition
16
The museum addition combined with the new public space was designed to create a unifying landscape feature that would provide a plinth for Henry Mercer’s historic building.

The building massing was developed to capture light and transform it, so that all who enter the space would be enveloped by sacred light. Preliminary massing investigations were made with many small models and the use of a class site model.
Final massingPreliminary massing
21Urban Mausoleum
22
Preliminary visions of the grand space were rendered in charcoal to communicate the experiential qualities of the space. Later, the daylighting was tested using physical and computer models.
The building contains four memorial gardens. The Mourning Garden, shown here, forms an important processional space to a small memorial chapel.
23Urban Mausoleum
24
On the south side of the building is the Chapel of Light. This small memorial chapel lies on axis with a garden beyond. Water from a fountain in this garden flows through the chapel, and eventually flows down the front of the facade as a solemn reminder of the never-ending march of mortality and the ever-renewing cycle of life.

The Squirrel Cove Restaurant
This is a yet-to-be-built project designed by Allen + Maurer Architects for the Klahoose First Nation, a Coast Salish tribe.For this interpretation of the scheme provided by Allen + Maurer, the basic footprint and profile of the building were respected and served as inspiration for site placement, orientation, facade and interior design, as well as guidance for an overall site plan.

Site placement was carefully considered to define outdoor spaces that correspond with the interior.
Views from the interior were aligned to distant peaks and an adjacent island, with the culmination point at the hearth.
Traditional shapes and forms were the fundamental elements considered in the builing’s design.
An exercise to examine the morphology of traditional forms through an iterative process.

The interior was designed to be holistically integrated with the site. The facade of the building was made of six accordian-style doors that fold up, allowing the heart of the structure to have a pavilion-like feeling.

Site Parameters:
The site parameters were very important considerations in the design of the interior of the building. The vastness of the site is allowed to penetrate through the structure guided by the natural variation of the site which was different on each side.
Western facade opens toward Squirrel Cove.
The longest view is aligned through the doorway to a peak on a distant island.
The eastern facade opens to the forest which offers a screened view out into the strait.
The back of the building was nestled against the thick forest wall.

I completed two historical building repair surveys with documentation for bidding. The images shown are from the survey document I created to show the type, location, and damage to historic tiles within the building.
Other responsibilities included drafting and creating renderings for client review.

All wood in the vanity was reclaimed from other
projects. The only new material used in the
construction process was the 250 lb. concrete
counter top.
When moving to Eugene to attend architecture
school, I put in an ad on Craig’s List offering
to trade work for rent. Surprisingly, the idea
worked out, and I have remodeled a wood
shop into a rent-able apartment.
One of the components of this remodel was
to build a bathroom vanity and sink. The sink
was constructed from plywood, carved, and
covered in a marine grade epoxy.

This site model of the urban condition surrounding the
intersection of Burnside and 405 in Portland, was designed
and built as a collaborative effort between me and two
fellow students. It was important to us that the model
be informative and interactive for early building design;
however, it was also of great importance that the model
be a an inherently beautiful object. It was made from hand
cut wood blocks, CNC cut laminated plywood, and sits on
a laser cut steel base.

I believe that beautiful objects come about through beautiful processes, and that the art of making a design is just as important as the design itself. Therefore, working with my hands has always been an important part of my life. I love to create, to build, and to sculpt. When I am able to build my own designs, I find that work absolutely invigorating as well as deeply educational and fulfilling. My goal as a designer is to reveal beauty that unfolds through the process of creating, and I hope that the making of my designs will add to the beauty, life, and vitality of the world around them.
