DAY & NIGHTRHINOV-RAY FOR RHINOPHOTOSHOPILLUSTRATORAUTOCAD

6-7

The botanical garden is located in the Portlands of Toronto, a waterfront area currently undergoing revitalization. The gardens are divided into two separate greenhouses, one of which houses day-blooming plants and the other night-blooming plants.

The pleasure gardens are connected by a bridge that spans the length of a canal that was once used as a cruise ship dock. Reeds are grown in this canal and the living plants are used in a process to generate electrical energy for the rest of the gardens, both indoor and out.

JULY 2012 / STUDIO

DIURNAL GARDENThe diurnal garden is divided into two layers influenced by the 24 hour cycle of the day. Firstly, there is a division between plants which bloom during the daytime and those which bloom during the night, creating moments of overwhelming nyctinastic movement at sunrise and sunset. Secondly, there is the separation of a pleasure garden of night and day blooming plants, from species which generate electrical energy from photosynthesis. This clear split of spectators and research demonstrates that the continuous steam of visitors and energy generation that is linked to the cycle of day and night.

THERMAL 8RHINOV-RAY FOR RHINOPHOTOSHOPILLUSTRATORAUTOCAD

Situated on one of the few busy street corners in the sleepy town of Cambridge, the hotel offers a thermal pools experience unlike any in the region. The hotel has a vibrant street presence with a ground floor restaurant, over which is a private garden accessible by the pools and spa on the second floor.

Visitors are whisked off to a retreat inspired by natural Icelandic hot springs and minimal Japanese onsen. Thermal pools and cold pools are scattered over a faceted interior landscape that extends to an exterior terrace, allowing for a soothing dip throughout all the seasons, even in the middle of a snowy winter.

DEC 2011 / STUDIO

The lights inside the onsen create a contrasting atmosphere to the weather outside.

The restaurant is pressed right up against the street with the private garden on the rooftop. Under the overhang of the flat slatted roof are the exterior pools, and the rest of the faceted landscape is further behind. The mid-rise tower to the side is the hotel, with the top corner sliced to create two communal rooftop gardens

for the patrons. Directly below is the monumental main entrance that is tilted diagonally to promote access from both directions of the street corner. The miniature stepped grid in the corner mimics the initial transformation of the pool landscape and creates a piece of urban installation for people to populate.

MIKAN GUMIRHINOV-RAY FOR RHINO3DS MAXV-RAY FOR 3DS MAXPHOTOSHOPILLUSTRATORPHYSICAL MODELSGRAPHIC DESIGN

Mikan Gumi is a firm located in Yokohama, Japan, a half-hour commute from the grand metropolis of Tokyo. I spent my time at the firm working on a variety of small- to mid-scale projects producing 3D renders and physical models for study and final presentation.

Projects include a sporting goods store near Yokohama for which I designed signage, traditional teahouse in the middle of the forest (right), Manseibashi train station café, traditional sweets shop, and modern sushi bar restaurant.

SUSHI BAR RESTAURANT

TRADITIONAL SWEETS SHOP

(left) In the centre of ‘Electric Town’ Akihabara, this café is situated right between the tracks of the Chuo line trains. Below, sits the newly renovated complex of shops and restaurants built into the existing arched brick support bridge.

(left below) The restaurant follows the typical layout of a small sushi bar in Tokyo. Great attention was given to detail, such as in the wood grain direction and the design of furniture.

(below) Sweets are a delicate art in Japanese cuisine, and the client wanted to present its long history to the current youth with this factory/shop/café. The roof is a complex shape that draws on vernacular architecture and variations were tested to find the perfect blend of modern and familiar. Landscaping also presents a combi-nation of modern aesthetics and traditional materials used in Japanese gardens.

The davidclovers office is located in the Wan Chai district, a recent location that I branded during my internship (left) by designing signage and sourcing suppliers. I gained a lot of practical experience in construction documentation and communication with contractors. I was also involved in interior, furniture, and graphic design.

Projects were mostly in the residential sector, focusing primarily on a luxury apartment complex in Repulse Bay. I was given work that took me from the exterior pool, to the apartments, to the lobbies, to the in-house café. I also completed visualizations for a series of garden pavilions in Shenzhen, China and other small scale projects.

COMMUNAL TABLES

PLAN OF BREAKERS RESTAURANT

(far left) Breakers is a restaurant in Hong Kong on the ground floor of the Repulse Bay de Ricou residential complex. The organic columns were designed to flow with the pattern of the abstract wave wallpaper. The communal tables and branding were also designed in-house.

(top) I designed the communal tables to follow the diagonal curves of the adjacent columns where they met the ceiling. The result was a set of amorphous wood tables that were complementary and created a focal point within the dining area.

(left) The central location of the communal tables can be easily understood from the plan, which also shows the myriad of floor treatments throughout the restaurant and kitchen.

DE RICOU IPAD HOME APP

Each residential unit at the De Ricou tower in Repulse Bay was designed to have the lighting, heating/cooling, and environmental system controlled with an interactive app on the iPad. I created a layout for each utility using the blue scheme of the residential branding and designed easily-recognizable icons for the individual function. Upon request by the manufacturer of the app, the icons were converted into a font to facilitate the insertion of the icons as workable buttons.

The office of Kengo Kuma in Paris works on a multitude of projects around Europe. I was given a wide range of responsibilities from interior and wayfinding design, architectural visualization, graphic layout for competitions and publication, and architectural visualization.

Projects include an opera in Granada, Spain (right), a cultural center in Besançon for which I contacted furniture suppliers, commercial building in Chamonix, a competition for a museum dedicated to Arthur Rimbaud, and various other residential projects.

KING’S COLLEGE CHAPEL

A 1:100 scale model of the King’s College Chapel was constructed to examine the style of English Perpendicular Gothic architecture. The model showcases the intricate ornamentation of the columns, the exquisite fan vaulting (the largest in the world!) and the vibrant stained glass windows.

The project was completed in collaboration with Haylie Chan, Jacqueline Chow, Emily Guo, Ronald Tang, and Christina Liu.

STINGRAY OBSERVATORY

The Stingray Observatory is an extension of the New York Aquarium that provides a view of Brooklyn’s local sea life. The building’s form was designed in biomimicry of the stingray’s elegant physique and movement. The barbed tail is reinterpreted as a sweeping entrance hall leading from the grassy dock to the underground observatory, creating a connection between land and sea. This extension breathes a little life into the oldest operating aquarium in the world and reinvents the city’s opinions towards its local sea life.

Entry for the 10th Annual SSEF Competition in collaboration with Haylie Chan.
