The lab building is conflicted by the historical character of the City University of New York campus and thetechnological requirements of its program.

As if folded, the form of the enclosure appears to be in continual transformation. The architecture remains incomplete.

v FauxBois

Steel is wood.

The barge was to be renovated as a gallery space for historical artifacts. As if made of wood, the steel envelope decays with a gradation of perforations.

The wooden skin is clad to a structure of steel frames braced into the landscape. Visitors descend and progress through a series of spaces elevated above the stream. Over time, the substance of the wood cladding decays into the water.

v HousingParcel

The schematic design resolves tight mechanical systems, square footage, and circulation constraints into a singular spatialexperience.The750squarefootapartmentunitsarestackedandshiftedtodefineaninternalvoid.Variationin plan is produced as each apartment is rotated around a centralized utility core. Circulation is carved from the volumes and detailed in raw plywood. The entire assemblage is clad in a diaphanous trellis to condition light and support plant growth. The project was completed in collaboration at Rice + Lipka Architects in New York.

v ArtFactory

The iridescent building volume is sited within a vacant property in a distressed Pittsburgh neighborhood. The facility expands theadjacent rowhouseandprovidesnecessaryutilities for thearea’sdevelopingartscommunity.Therenovations include a sawtooth ceiling with an integrated photovoltaic array and an escape stair to satisfy egress requirements. The project was presented to the community through a town meeting and included a business and event plan.
