Edges

The centre features basement parking to eleviate stress of limited availabilty of parking spaces in the city,

The Toucan Centre was designed for the context of Belize City in Belize. It is, as the name suggests, an entrepreneurship centre and community centre. The design features elements of modern and green architecture and is designed to stand out from the rest of the context.

Sketches

The centre is designed to bring a new aesthtic to Belize City while still considering the local constriants.

The centre has been elevated due to the limited landspace and the city being prone to seasonal floods during the rainy season.

Development Sketches

The aim of this project was to design a centre for entrepeneurship which will be run mainly by young people and facilitate a radio station or recording studio. The project site is in an urban context and should also facilitate possible tourist attraction.

There is a strong juxtoposition from the local architectural landscape as typically, compounds in this area - Allman Town, are heavily barricaded and enclosed. But this is a design centred around the people and is suppose to encourage community unity; therefore, it is very open and allows for seamless transition between spaces.

Lower Level

The centre utilises a serpentine form, like a wave, which is in keeping with the concept of progression.

The free flow movement experienced through the composition is similar to the free flow of

innovation which will emulate from the young entrepeneurs.

Upper Level

“Room of Celestial Knowledge”

Concept design from Rooms project based on research on

astranomical phenomenon and alignments and the links to

religion.

SALLY PETROS RESIDENCELIVE - WORK PROJECT

03

14

Sally Petros is a single mom who runs her private phisio-therapy business from home. She incorporates her private life with her work life but still likes things seperate for the most part. She also takes care of her elderly mother who is dependent on the use of a wheelchair for mobility.

Sally loves nature, she loves the outdoors, and she is a big endorsor of sustainable practices; but she is also very stylish and likes to be comfortable.

The design is a sustainable home for Sally and her family using elements of sustainable design and in-corporating a private workspace withn the residential fabric.

The design concept incorporates a variety of modern design practices such as wide open facades, rectalinear forms, and clean simple finishes.The floor plan is centred around the open living areas with eating and sleeping areas to the sides. The folding doors on the south allow the living areas to feel similar to that of a covered courtyard which opens up to the large back-yard for that precious experience with nature.

Lower Level Upper Level

Some notable sustainable features include passive cooling of interior spaces, use of shading devices to limit sunlight penetration of interior spaces, use of green roofs to reduce the overall heat capacity of the roofs; green roof also helps the water harvesting system. There is also the incorporation of gray water recycling system, smart energy through solar energy harvesting and natural daytime lighting from the wide vista spaces.

KELLY BED & BREAKFAST05

22

A two phase schematic proposal in Mandeville, Manchester

The aim is to develop a quintessential facility for overnighting convenience, which delivers comfort for all involved, is sustainable & environmentally

friendly, and a rewarding investment for the investor(s).

Phase I Concept: Bed n’ Breakfast – Business

Description: A Bed n’ Breakfast facility which accommodates a business retreat setting. The environment encourages meetings and interaction while still being remnant of the tranquillity needed when one needs to escape from the busy-ness of the office. The business model will facilitate a space which, though it is a respite from office environment, will still accommodate some small meetings and social activities.

The space will facilitate: o Small business conferencingo Business group retreato After work socialo Group diningo Private bedroom suites

Phase I - Ground Floor Level

Bubble & Schematic Development

Phase II Concept: Bed n’ Breakfast – Serenity

Description: The Bed n’ Breakfast will accommodate privacy at an almost totally secluded state of being. This model juxtaposes from Phase I and will utilise more natural feeling of escaping from reality. The space should allow users to experience almost total seclusion from the outside world during their tenure. It will promote serenity and tranquillity through its open vistas towards delightful outdoor garden spaces and views.

The space will facilitate: o Honeymooningo Meditationo Rehabilitationo Isolated dining (group dining optional)o Private bedroom suites

NATURAL PRODUCTS RESEARCH LABORATORY, UTECH06

26

The expansion of the Natural Products Research Labarotory, Utech.

The project saw the labaratory being expanded from its very small cramped single room to the neighbouring classroom

which allowed for more and better equipment with more usable space for lab sessions with students.

The schematic was done to show the builders what the lab should look like on completion.

Before: Previously used as another classroom for students.

Now: Fully equiped and functional Natural Products Research Labaratory.
