WINTER 2013_VERTICAL + AGILE

A high rise middle school in the urban setting of Chicago focusing on agile spaces/classrooms and vertical connections. Classroom clusters were designed through the learning ecology of “making the classroom agile” and my design looked at this in two separate conditions; the corridor, and the home room. The vision for the corridor was transparency through the classrooms while the home room was about this vertical connection linking the two levels each grade occupies. In both in-stances, interactive furniture walls are used as partitions that start to define space. Students no longer have to be confined to a set room as they can now break out into the corridor and home room to create their own spaces.

FALL 2012_SPARKING ENLIGHTENMENT

EVOLUTION is defined as the gradual process in which something changes into a different and usually more complex or better form. My project looked at how evolution can spark enlightenment in a new community library through the following two aspects: ststic + dynamic of spaces and how a library can successfully link and engage the community.

1. Existing building on site.

2. Structural grid and footing of previous building extended west.

3. New bar of program introduced facing the street giving the library a pres-ence while intersecting the existing library forming programmatic spaces.

4. Roof pushed in catching wind to naturally ventilate the building.

5. Entry sequence setup providing a feeling of a private entrance iso-lated from the street and parking lot.

SPRING 2012_EPOCH WINERY & SPA

As a winery and spa are two programs not generally integrated, my design focused on subtle interactions between them driven mainly by a light shaft that pierces the roof and eventually leads down and frames the main pool in the spa. Playing off of the existing adjacent York Mountain Building and con-crete pad, my building acts as an extension to this and continues along that same axis while the spa level in punched into the earth so you are walking on the roof of the spa as you enter the central lobby. The wine production facility uses a gravity flow system and starts off near the road for easy drop off of grapes then continues downhill leading into the tasting room which overlaps the spa and sets up views into the narrowing valley.

Interior perspective of the wine tasting room. Truss structure exposed and set inside the glazing for a layered appearance. Once in the cantilever, you have 180 degrees of viewing into the valley.
