Video Project: The Architecture of Entropy
Time
Professor Lawrence J. Hamlin
Instructor
Spring 2008
Concept
The project prompt for this video was to explore Architecture as it relates to time.
I found a starting point from Robert Smithsons essay Entropy and the New Monuments where Smithson applied the concept of entropy to inhabitable spaces. To him entropic space and the entropic mood can be described as banal, empty, bland, blank, and infintesimal. Its within the slurbs, urban sprawl, and the infinite number of housing developments of the postwar boom that he sees these spaces take shape. This video seeks to reflect the experience of the entropic mood as Smithson describes it.
In the video a commercially produced particle board dresser falls to pieces in two locations, seeming to occupy each simultaneously. Meanwhile images of locations that match Smithsons description of entropic space are intertwined. Entropy does not then appear as wild chaos but instead the slow homogenization of space over time.

ConceptThe Ecole Nationale Suprieure dArchitecture de Versailles (ENSA-V) hosted an intensive course on sustainable design to take place between French and American students. The task was to design a two person housing unit in suburban Versailles that could be self sustaining and completely disconnected from the grid.N

boutique hotel
Project
Boutique Hotel
Time
Professor Ralph Hammann
Instructor
Fall 2009
ConceptThe assignment for this studio was to design a luxury hotel with a concrete structure. The site was located just a block off Lake Michigan in Chicagos North side. Given the program of a boutique hotel I wanted to design a building that would offer a unique experience specific to the city of Chicago. To do this I took a historicist bent and chose to explore an aesthetic based in Chicagos early 20th century Architecture.

Green Line Extension Project Operators Facility
Project
Design of facilities for train operators and yard staff as part of the greater Green Line Extension Project for the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority.(MBTA)
Time
AECOM
Company
Winter 2013
ConceptAECOM inherited a detailed program and diagrammatic floor plan from the MBTA and was tasked with re-evaluating the layout and providing a full design for the building. The Transportation Building is a point of departure and return for train operators along Bostons Green Line. The building also provides office space for management staff.
I was responsible for all presentation work, 3D modeling, and much of the construction documentation.

Mass Development
The first step was to analyze the inherited programmatic massing and determine how we could alter it. We consolidated the buildings mechanical area into a penthouse above the stair core to simplify the massing.
The second step we took was to slide the program on either side of the axis defined by the corridor and create a recessed entrance at the end of the building.

a hotel apart
Project
Extended stay hotel in the 11th Arrondissement of Paris
Time
Alejandro Lapunzina
Professor
Spring 2009
ConceptThe objective of this studio was to design a building that was not quite apartment and not quite hotel, something our studio would come to call an apart-hotel. The clientelle was imagined to be anyone from a single business traveller to an entire family. The site was narrow, abutting an existing building to the south and a park to the north. My approach was to build away from the existing wall to allow for a long courtyard for light and ventilation. This studio occurred during my time studying abroad at Ecole Nationale Suprieure dArchitecture de Versailles (ENSA-V) when much of my travels and curriculum were exposing me to early 20th century modernist works which influenced this design.

JFK Terminal 1
Project
Copetiton entry for the expansion of Terminal 1 at JFK International Airport.
Time
AECOM
Company
Winter 2013
Architectural Team
ConceptOur task was to develop a design to expand Terminal 1 at John F. Kennedy International Airport that would respond to the existing Architecture of Terminal 1 as well as meet the Terminal One Group Associations (TOGA) requirements for additional gates and long term (hard stand) aircraft parking for 747 and A380 aircraft.
I was primarily responsible for developing the parti and buidling masses, as well as most of the assocaited 3D modeling including existing conditions and roadways.

Developing the PartiMass iterations.
Building mass is made of three distinct parts. The land side curve houses primarily pre-security program such as ticketing and passenger pick up. The air side curve and linear bar house post-security programming such as concessions, INS, Customs, and hold rooms.
Site limits defined by the Terminal One Group Association and existing Terminal.
Ideal aircraft and hardstand locations determined by air side engineers further define building footprint.
Final building form established by elaborating on curves of existing Terminal 1.

Travel Sketches
Project
A selection of sketches from travelling while studying in Versailles.
Time2008-2009
ConceptThe curriculum of the University of Illinois Versailes program included several sketch trips where students were allowed to develop their own itinerary and experience European cities and Archtiecture first hand. The only requirement was that each student return with a full sketchbook to document their travel. These pages feature a small selection of my own.
