MICRO-HOUSING KNOXVILLE, TENNESSEE, USA
TYPE: THESIS LEVEL: ARCH V THESIS STUDIO INSTRUCTOR: ELLEN BRAATEN LOCATION: BLACKSBURG, VA, USA COMPLETED: 2011
Maneuvering through the interstitial urban terrain, MICRO-HOUSING calls for the re-evaluation of urban dwelling space, developing a dialogue between inde-pendent structures and the spaces created between them. It is an architecture of the individual scale that breeds collectivism. It treats spaces like individuals that can mingle and interact with others and creates opportunities for communities to participate in urban life.
The project provides a new living condition for the downtown city center of Knoxville, TN. Units have specific functions and can be grouped to create vari-ous dwelling environments that are adaptable and expandable.

700 GAY STREET, KNOXVILLE, TN / 2011
SECTION / 500-700 GAY STREET
The site is a sloping hill with the uppermost portion touch-ing the most visible and accessible thoroughfare of downtown Knoxville, Gay Street. The lower portion is met by the ruins of a pre-existing parking structure that is now demolished. Roughly 80 feet by 180 feet; a flower shop is located on the corner of this plot.

The interstitial urban terrain is the collective space within the city that is in a potentially exploitable state, either un-der-utilized or undefined. It is a space open to spontaneity and creative use that could otherwise be limited within the order and regulation of the traditional cityscape.

URBAN TERRAIN, KNOXVILLE, TN / 2010
65THESIS / MICRO-HOUSING
A structural framework was designed to interject into the urban terrain and to accomodate the building of in-dependent unit structures. The system was designed to expand and contract between the city’s permanent struc-tures as a connective tissue for the interstitial spaces. These existing spaces intersect with newly formed unit structures. Based on the given area and specific charac-teristics of a specific terrain, different systems of varying dimensions arise.

6 THESIS / MICRO-HOUSING
The manufacturing and assembly of the structure is an in-tegral part of its relationship with the interstitial urban ter-rain. The system and order given by the superstructure is a basic grid over which different types of units can be placed.
The connection between the individual units and the super-structure is a vital point of departure for the overall experi-ence of the urban terrain. The unified design is a land-based housing mechanism for which individual spaces can be cre-ated through the growth and development of the community at large.

BEYOND UTOPIA TOKYO, JAPAN
TYPE: CASE STUDY / COMPREHENSIVE RESEARCH LEVEL: ARCH IV STUDIO INSTRUCTOR: TERRY SURJAN LOCATION: BLACKSBURG, VA, USA COMPLETED: 2010
As part of a semester-long collaborative research stu-dio, our study focused on a number of 1960s utopian cities.
Under the theme of REcycle, REuse, REduce, our out-put was focused on drawings and models. Looking through the lens of cities and water, physical models were constructed of three cities by the Japanese Me-tabolist group.
3 cities, 4 scales, 5 people.

Based on 49 Cities by WORK AC, our initial studies utilized digital versions of the maps in 49 Cities to reconstruct our own interpreta-tions of utopia.
Using hundreds of different sources, our team compiled and cre-ated a working compendium of Metabolist works from 1958-1971. With this material we were able to reconstruct three major works in drawings, digital models, and physical models at four scales (house, street, district, city). These works are: A) Kisho Kurokawa’s HELIX CITY; B) Kiyonori Kikutake’s MARINE CITY; and C) Kenzo Tange’s TOKYO BAY.

Kisho Kurokawa’s recently demol-ished Nakagin Capsule Tower in Tokyo, Japan was a parallel study to the larger scale of the utopian cities. As one of only a few built represen-tations of Metabolist theory, the cap-sule tower was a powerful realiza-tion of the potential of urban utopia.
The unit design for the tower was a vital part of our investigation, as it detailed the construction of the smallest scale of utopia. It not only expanded the range of our study, but allowed us to research from op-posite ends of scale: city to house, house to city.

19CASE STUDY / BEYOND UTOPIA
City scale models were laser cut, primarily with recyclable paper products. Each model was 4’ x 4’ and placed onto an MDF platform custom built with two sliding glass panels; one piece as a base for each city and one as a cover/view-ing piece. With each component being attached to the base glass, the models could be viewed flat or tilted up as a wall display.
Each city was designed and enabled to be built up and bro-ken down into individual working elements and scales. Two sets of each city were cut so all elements could be viewed and potentially reconstructed to build new proposals for the future.

SUPER CONSULATE LUGANO, TICINO, SWITZERLAND
TYPE: MIXED-USE LEVEL: ARCH IV STUDIO INSTRUCTOR: MICHAEL ERMANN LOCATION: RIVA-SAN VITALE, TICINO, SWITZERLAND COMPLETED: 2009
Given strict programmatic and site limitations, the SUPER CONSULATE raises specific urban issues of land use, contex-tual awareness, and privacy.
The consulate functions as a highly controlled domain, yet its functions are vaguely defined. It is constantly adjusted to embrace time and action. Its geo-political nature raises ques-tions regarding rules, hierarchy, ambiguity, efficiency, and in-terpretation. What can architecture do at this boundary? How does it manifest?
Given the requirements, I created my own brief based on the guidelines (opposite page). The program has two parts: CON-SULAR OFFICE and CONSUL RESIDENCE. My study asks how can architecture work as a device to explore the contemporary role of a consular post as a paradoxical urban event.

The given area is deemed a paradox space. The functions of the post are contradictory to each other. The drawings shown here are glimpses into that paradoxical space; the secret and the shared.
In conjunction with the drawings, I was also exploring digital modeling in Rhinoceros and rendering with V-Ray.

The limited width of the site naturally pushed the program vertically. The question of how the architecture touches the ground was a vital one throughout the process.
Using Rhino as a primary design tool, a number of iterai-tons were produced that addressed the ground and how the ground carried up through the architecture.

CHAPEL OF ST. IGNATIUS SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, USA
TYPE: CASE STUDY / MODELING LEVEL: ARCH III BUILDING ANALYSIS/ASSEMBLIES INSTRUCTOR: JIM BASSETT LOCATION: BLACKSBURG, VA, USA COMPLETED: 2009
BUILDING ANALYSIS/ASSEMBLIES engaged students with the assembly of architecture from the ground up. The task was to study and reconstruct the architecture. By creating a dialogue between drawing and modeling, we were able to analyze construction documents and create a method of representa-tion through those drawings.
Starting with the foundation, we divided the model into two sections, a mass-ing section and a structural section. Utilizing birch, basswood, and walnut, we created a model for Steven Holl’s St. Ignatius Chapel, based on his tilt-up panel construction.

How do u make a deck of cards span 40 inches? What distinguishes an architectural solution from one which simply structures?
At first, it either spans or does not span. If we can achieve that basic purpose, then we must ask, “What guides us, what can we do, what do we want to explore and how do we want to use our architecture to do it.”

THE ROAD TO NOWHERE BRYSON CITY, NORTH CAROLINA, USA
TYPE: PUBLIC LEVEL: ARCH III STUDIO INSTRUCTOR: JIM BASSETT LOCATION: BLACKSBURG, VA, USA COMPLETED: 2009
The Road functions as a metonym; a subtle substitute for the forces of the road that bring it there and the questions that its existence raises. It is a crossing.
How can we reconcile different points of view while giving them equal con-sideration and weight? How can we find an “answer” when we can argue equally both sides of a conflict? The architecture does not attempt to realize a solution. The context is merely acknowledged and questioned.
The program has three parts: burial grounds, rest area, story telling space.
Hold these lightly.

VIEWPOINT FROM THE TUNNEL
ON THE ROAD TO NOWHERE
UNDER THE GROUND
46
The project site is located at the end of the paved road, just past the end of a 1200 foot tunnel. The project aims to question the context and targets the road as a met-onym; a crossing where stories are shared and remem-bered. The architecture does not attempt to realize a so-lution. It merely acknowledges the context and questions it. The end of the road then becomes the memorial; its existence is delineated with a break as the ground is ex-cavated beyond it and a path around the edge is created. This path leads to an area adjacent to the road that acts as a resting place for visitors. A concrete retaining wall creates this excavated space.
The ROAD TO NOWHERE is located in the Great Smoky Moun-tains just outside of Bryson City, NC in Swain county. In the 1930s, much of Swain county was forced to give up its private land to the government for the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and Lake Fontana Dam. The government promised to build a new road that would have stretched along the north shore of Fontana Lake and provided access to old family cemeteries located in the area. This road is called Lakeview Drive. Unfortunately Lakeview Drive was never completed and the road ends at tunnel about six miles into the park. At this point the road simply became a dirt footpath for travelers and hikers. The road earned a nickname from Swain county residents: the Road to Nowhere.
