Born and raised in Naperville, IL, I needed a change of scenery and a higher sense of adventure. Therefore, I enrolled in the University of Colorado’s School of Architecture and Planning to remedy the situation. Now living in Boulder, I spend my free time hiking, cycling, snowboarding and mountain biking. At school, I find designing in real and practical contexts to be extremely interesting. Professionally, I aspire to be an environmentally conscious architect and to provide great spaces and experiences for the public.

01

Boulder Hostel[Studio Three] Professor: Ping Xu

Term: Spring 2010

Boulder, CO is a very active town that experiences many visitors. However, there is no affordable place to stay upon visiting. This design is a proposal for a hostel located in the foothills west of town. It is centered around the idea of community, and explores the concept of revealing. The building lifts up from the hillside and cuts away from itself to provide opportunities for people- watching. Visitors become the revealed object. Opportunities for exhibition occur in the atrium section (below the main skylight) where the floor steps down to a dining area. Visitors can also look out the front and see people swimming in the basement. Patrons can also observe new guests arrive from the loft above the entrance.

*The Kitchen

The Kitchen[Studio Two] Professor: Chris Jahn

Term: Fall 2009

After interviewing cooks, waiters, and managers from one of Boulder’s posh restaurants, The Kitchen, our studio compiled a program for the restaurant’s new location on the popular Pearl Street Mall. The site is occupied by a boarded-up house which holds historic value as “The German House”, which was once a hostel and bar for German immigrants in the early 1900’s. The new program required a larger restaurant which reflected The Kitchen’s communal practices and a separate wine lounge with outdoor seating. My design placed the wine lounge in the existing building which connects via two gaskets to a new addition which contains the restaurant and supporting services.

The restaurant is composed of a system of planes which control views and light to provide ever changing experiences. The front facade chooses to isolate mountain/street views based on which level the user is on. Fenestration is placed in key areas to frame certain views, such as at table level to put the food on display. The idea of a plane is further expanded to define the roof systems.

48 Hours[National Competition] Host: AIA Atlanta

Term: Fall 2010

With the design brief distributed on a Friday, and the submission deadline on the following Sunday, 48 Hours posts the challenge of representing a design concept in very little time. This year’s competition called for a redevelopment of a 15 acre urban amalgamation of parking lots and rail road tracks in the heart of downtown Atlanta, GA. In order to preserve the essence of the train tracks, pedestrian circulation was placed above which loops around the site. Parkland ramps down from the above street level to provide an oasis in the city. Many designed features would then be added to the site to provide a completely public entity. In order to revitalize the industrial area, mixed-use developments would surround the site.

*Platforms

Platforms[UIC Workshop] Professor: Paul Preissner

Term: Summer 2010

Over a course of two weeks, the Platforms Workshop covered Rhino, Grasshopper, and Maya. The final exercise was a comprehensive design which incorporated aspects of each computer program. This “Bending Tower” was described by a Grasshopper definition which can control the height, bend, width, and geometry of the form. For the depicted iteration, The tower starts as a hexagon at the base and deforms to a square at the top. The skin is tessellated into triangles to allow for ease of panel construction. The computer model was then sliced so that the pieces may be cut and stacked to create the form. Lastly the tower was manipulated and rendered in Maya.

The design of a roadside farm stand raised questions of open/closed relationships and signage that would attract the most customers who drive past the site. The result was an object that could be prefabricated and shipped to any location and outfitted with custom graphics. Additionally, the farm could move its stand to various locations, including farmers markets. The farm stand consists of an interior box which has a fixed position while an exterior box slides over this on tracks. When the market is open, the stand can thus slide open and add an extra 2/3 of its original length. When the market closes down, the stand simply slides back to a sealed position. This kinetic relationship then organized the fixed/mobile aspects of the plan.

*Farmers’ Market

06

Permanent Market [Studio Four] Professor: Marcel de Lange

Team Partner: Stephen Anderson

Term: Fall 2010


Boulder is home to a rapidly growing Farmers’ Market, yet it has no permanent infrastructure to support it. This proposal for a multi-use building was derived after interviewing market directors, farmers, and compiling research.The linear promenade aspect of the current market was manipulated to wrap around the new site and the floor slabs were then ramped at 1:48 to provide a subtle rise to the second floor. This allows vendors to drive into the building and unload their goods directly at their stand, and then continue to an underground parking garage. This also gives the visitors a unique experience which culminates at a green roof. Shortcuts between levels were also added to create a closed circulation.
