Arts[Rock]Center was a site-focused studio project to propose an art center for the University of Minnesota where creativity was displayed, experienced and shared. Inspired by the majestic Mississippi River water body and the riverbank landform in the close vicinity, on-site conditions were imagined as metaphoric currents to carve out the final building as if from a solid piece of rocky material; the result was a sculptural and triangulated façade.
The interior layout was manipulated to encourage interactions among humans, arts and site; this was achieved architecturally through facing terraced floor slabs and multifunctional grand staircases—Terraced floor slabs created several balconies over which strong visual connections could be made between any two points in the building prompting interactions and circulations; the grand staircases blurred the lines between spaces for circulation, socializing, exhibition and production.

Heath Ceramics was a studio project to find a balance expression
between concrete masses and light steel structure. The modular steel
members of the factory created a series of cubic spaces that mimicked
the formal quality of the concrete showroom; the rhythm inherited in the
modulating heights of the street front not only brought together both
parts of the property but also served pragmatic function of housing a
variety of programs. Back edge of the building morphed to respond to the
shape of the lot. Greenery was inserted in between building volumes to
take advantage of the changing colors of distinct seasons in Minneapolis,
taking in the sight of different hues year round.

Flat Pack it!—All-in-one-piece studio hub
In this charrette exercise, students were asked to work in groups of two to collaboratively and creatively come up with a functional piece of furniture that was to be put in a corner of the design studio classroom. Programs were to be determined; dimension and material allowances were prescribed.
The final proposal aimed to be relevant to architecture student life and use the least material and the simplest assembly method. Folding was used to manipulate prefabricated powder-coated metal panels. The final ensemble included a coffee station, shelving unit, seating and a study nook that were all self-supporting and required minimal assembly and no screws. Units were movable and could be rearranged to accommodate different usage.

Floating Residence—A hypothetical personal dwelling
This project was the final assignment of an introductory drawing class to
landscape architecture design. It aimed to demonstrate various drafting
and rendering techniques and concepts covered in the course. The
main courtyard was the focus and next to a building that was free to be
assigned with any characteristic.
I was inspired to create a hypothetical personal dwelling. The location
would be situated in tropical climate and the peripheral water ponds
jointly with the infinity pool design evoked an illusion of a floating
dwelling.

Lake Pepin Residence—A retirement house proposal
This project was for a preliminary construction plan reading class where essential working documents literacy was taught and applied. The assignment was particularly exhilarating because it was for a real client friend of the instructor.
The client adored French Provincial interior and the extensive nature of Frank Lloyd Wright’s style of architecture. To provide a compelling proposal, the final design strove to create strong connections between inside and outside through material manipulation, programming and orientation of openings. Environmental design techniques were also implemented to maximize access to winter south sun and take advantage of the distant calming view of Lake Pepin.

Visual Culture—See the world one drawing at a time
I’ve always been a very visual person. I believe there is an irreplaceable
place for hand drawings that ties artistic instincts with humanity. Prior
the study aboard trip, I had come across the term “urban sketcher” and
decided that I wanted to live as one. During my 4-month stay in Europe I
constantly put down in my Moleskine journal what interested me. Putting
myself out there and drawing in public had proven to be a very fruitful
way to interact with local people and learn about their cultures. Here I’m
sharing with you some selected pieces from my visual journals followed
by the final presentation for my visual culture course in Istanbul.

As part of the College of Design family, I’d like to believe that no areas
of design are off-limits if you have the right mind for it. I think the
architecture curriculum has given us transferable knowledge that can be
applied to other areas of creative interests. On the right side are some
graphic design pieces that I’ve done on the side while in school in my
leisure time. Hopefully, they will offer you a glimpse of my personality
and voice as a designer!

The slice of watermelon is smiling with its seeds and wearing sunglasses reveals the joy and sweetness summer brings out in everyone.
