This project was a collaboration e�ort between me and a friend of mine, Molly Schultz. The design intent for this vertical cemetery in Japan was to create light tubes in which urns could be housed to bask in heavenly light, bringing comfort to mourners, and solving the problem of a large aging population in a crowded city. Work was divided evenly.

This building serves as an event center.
The structure composed of 3 wings:
- Hotel “Stay” Wing-Multipurpose “Work + Play-”Vertical Streets” extending up from ground streetscape for even more activity
Main structure composes of large columns supported additionally with cross-bracing and a typical girder and
joist floor framing system.
The ‘vertical streets’ are suspended by the other two wings via a large truss and suspension system.

Renderings and Site Plan6.
The objective for the CRIPE Tiny Home Competition 2016 was to design a site for 6 tiny homes and a communi-ty center on an 8000 SF lot on the corner of 9th St. and Hoyt Ave. in Muncie, IN. The design, which features tierred gardens and a basketball court among other features, was a collaboration between me and classmate Madison Hendershot.
