Si ver ake Community Center

Arroyo Seco Rec CenterDesigned summer 2009

Located along the aroyo seco in Eagle Rock California, the design incorporates a large pool, gymnasium, bleach-ers on the roof overlooking adjacent fields, changing rooms, cafe, classrooms and gathering areas for vending and recreation. The building being primarily used during summer months and as a recreation facility allows for an open and light roof design. The heavy concrete elements form ground surfaces and furniture, while the light alu-minum roof is split and ‘gilled’ to open for light and ventilation, and also to provide bleacher seating.

Spring - 2010

Located in Echo Park, the site is an old redcar crossing of the LA river. All that has been left are large con-crete pillars. The project design is for a community center, a spa, administration, and 3 garden spaces. My ap-proach divides the program into three distinct programtic parts. Each part forms a ‘bar’ spanning between pillar sections. Each piece is then cantilevered and bent to interact with one another and connect to structural points. The user experienced each building as a series of exterior views and framed garden spaces shifting as the privacy needs of each space change. The existing heavy concrete elements are contrasted with cantilevered steel trusses clad in aluminum paneling and vibrant structural elements.

KIRUNA STUDIO - FALL 2010PENGUIN URBANISMDANIEL NAY, BRETT VUCKETS, TIFFANY CHENG

*Puplished In World Architecture 2011

This project seeks to incorporate biomimetics and computer scripting in order to create an urban plan for the city of Kiruna. Kiruna, located in the northern part of sweden, is a small mining town that has begun to collapse due to the min-ing activity. This project, under the instruction of Nick Pisca and Neil Leach, utilizes MEL scripting to generate a new urban vision for the town of kiruna utilizing complex algorithmic and parametric processes. All studio work is completely computer scripted.
