WORK & ACADEMIC PORTFOLIO M A N U E L A . V E L I Z
-2 -
I am a young architect with various experiences in architecture and design. I earned a Bachelor’s of Architecture in 2009 from NJIT’s College of Architecture and Design. Subsequently I worked while studying at NJIT and graduated in 2011 with a Master’s of Science in Architecture with a focus on sustainability. While at NJIT I was nominated for the Dean’s award for my studio project design and exhibited architectural work at the NJIT Design Showcase. As a student I had the opportunity to work at several organizations including Mercedes-Benz USA, Habitat for Humanity-Newark and B.S. Architecture & Design. During these experiences I have produced AutoCAD construction drawings, design proposals through sketch & photomontage, 3D models and animations. I have con-ducted research of precedents, site descriptions, census comparisons, and I have researched construction materials and companies. More recently I worked as an Intern Architect at AXIS DIA where I collaborat-ed with the design group in all aspects of the projects. The projects have been both local and international, and include various project types. Through my experience at AXIS I have increased my understanding of programs like Revit Architecture, which were used to prepare and organize design document packages. I hope to find employment where I can continue my IDP experience towards becoming a licensed architect. I hope to grow a career while becoming an important asset of a company and continue to develop my skills and interests in Design, sus-tainability, and technology.

A banquet hall, off ice suite, guest house and domestics’ quar-ters were added to a private residence to create The Colon-nades residence. The design preserves the entire existing garden and trees while minimizing the disturbance to existing utilities. New outdoor rooms connect buildings and covered pathways link the main house to the new guest buildings. The buildings are designed to compliment the existing main house, with the office wing reinforcing the arrival experience while the banquet hall is a focal point for the rear garden.

Lagos Island West is the western half of Lagos Island located at the centre of the fast growing Lagos metropolis. Lagos Island, the former capital of Nigeria and Lagos State, remains the commercial, industrial, f i national and cultural capital of Nigeria, Africa’s most populous country. However, overcrowding coupled with a history of poor regulation and maintenance has resulted in the environmental degradation of area and the flight of businesses from Lagos Island West. AxisDIA developed a vision plan to improve the physical conditions and functionality of the city, revitalize the vibrancy of its commercial sectors and to re-establish it as an attractive destination city. The Plan features thirteen strong districts anchored by three civic nodes, traversed by a grand boulevard and rimmed by a walkable waterfront. Other solutions include a variety of public open spaces, market centres linked by retail corridors, improved transportation systems with new inter-modal stations and hubs.

The Coast Guard Museum will become a new activity centre in New London, CT. The Museum uses its primary access to beguin a circulation force that brings people inside and distrib-utes them into its dif ferent parts in and around the site. The site’s landscape reacts with the program of the building allow-ing activities to f low in and out of the museum buildings. The result is a landscape that allows people to hold concets, enjoy the site’s vistas, and hold various activities.

This Gallery was inspired by the light sculptures produced by Sharon Marston. Marston belives that the ideal space for her light sculptures to be displayed in, would have to be the “perfect open space”. The Gallery is a beckon in the city that creates a sence of weightlessness and becomes part of the area’s network of public buildings. This building provides op-portunities to view the sculptures in social openness.

We live in a world where cities are involved in the living Networks of transportation and communication. The bound-aries of cities, states and countries that once existed are continuously being erased by the networks that connect them. As a result the Newark Arts Incubator erases its own bound-ries by becoming part of and egaging in its own surrounding network of the city of Newark.

Using the principals of LEED a new 10,000 SF mutli-tenant occupancy commercial office building on a 30’ x 100’ lot was produced. The project is orientated with its long side of prop-erty facing north/south. The focus of the project is to develop the interior environment of the building. Through LEED the office building has a fresh air environ-ment free of VOCs and pollutants, improves thermal comfort through natural and artif icial means, improves visual comfort through integrated natural and artif icial lighting and creates a healthy, comfortable, and pleasant place to work in.

The Broad Street Station is a major transit hub for the region, the station serves three commuter rail lines, 12 major bus routes, and the Newark Light rail. More than 8,000 pas-sengers use the station complex everyday. The area has great transportation infrastructure, yet the neighbourhood has rela-tively low densities. Anticipating new development a plan for the Broad Street Station Area is necessary. The plan represents a new form of urban renewal that com-bines city led improvements to the public realm with developer driven building projects. The product of this plan is to better connections, amenities accessible to both new & existing com-munities, and encouragement of walking and bicycling.
