Crime and Punishment Room ARCH 211 Design Drawing II

But his sleep had not refreshed him; he waked up bilious, irritable, ill-tempered, and looked with hatred at his room. It was a tiny cupboard of a room about six paces in length. It had a poverty-stricken appearance with its dusty yellow paper peeling off the walls, and it was so low-pitched that a man of more than average height was ill at ease in it and felt every moment that he would knock his head against the ceiling. The furniture was inkeeping with the room: there were three old chairs, rather rickety; a painted table in the corner on which lay a few manuscripts and books; the dust that lay thick upon them showed that they had been long untouched. A big clumsy sofa occupied almost the whole of one wall and a half the floor space of the room; it was once covered with chintz, but was now in rags and served Raskolnikov as a bed. Often he went to sleep on it, as he was, without undressing, without sheets, wrapped in his old student’s overcoat, with his head on one little pillow, under which he heaped up all the linen he had, clean and dirty, by way of a bolster. A little table stood in front of the sofa.

Fyodor Dostoevsky, Crime and Punishment.

Design for a room described in a passage from “Crime and Punishment”, drawn as one would see it from the doorway.

Room Within a RoomARCH 301 Architectural Design II

Presentation Haiku:

Gouged flesh of mind,Sacrificed to the temple:

Bring inspiration.

A conceptual project, wherein we were challenged to define what makes a space a “room” and create an inspirational space for a writer or artist, given a specific volume of material, the mass of which had to remain the same, as if molded from a piece of clay.My space required the occupant to descend through a dark tunnel of meditation before being allowed to ascend to the platform that gives a view out of the walled space, representing a sacrifice of physical senses in return for an expansion of the mind.

Artist’s Space ARCH 301 Architectural Design II

A project for an abandoned lot on a historic street in Ballard, Washington, using the space for an artist’s live/work loft with rentable storefronts.

March 2007

The storefronts are at a right angle to the street, creating an explorable and friendly “alley” that opens into a small courtyard. The elevation at the street continue the classic brick and mortar look of the surrounding neighbor-hood, while the artist’s space in the back of the lot has a more modern feel, with glass and concrete facade.A photographer’s black room and studio are located underground beneath the storefront area.

Design for a Media Library in Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighbor-hood. My design’s central concepts were the curved gesture at the entrance (an homage to the corner entrances that are popular in the area), the counter-curve on the second floor, and a theatre at the basement level. We were also challenged to make conceptual models out of “real” materials: wood, metal, and gypsum wall board.

ROOTS Homeless ShelterARCH 400 Architectural Design IV

A site with lots of surrounding history was the setting for this homeless shelter design. Adjoining our given location were the iconic Cafe Allegro and University Temple Church, with its stained glass windows facing the site. Respecting these landmarks was important to my design.

December 2007

Page 19: Hahn-Wagner Grad School application portfolio

The site model stand for the ROOTS studio came from my concept sketches of a shopping cart, an icon of homeless culture. I painted the cart with a fire motif to reflect the existing ROOTS phoenix mural on the adjacent church. The site model was hinged at the cart handle, allowing us to store materials beneath it.

Privacy on the ground floor of the shelter was achieved with minimal fenestration and stained glass. Natural light was brought into the communal space by way of a clerestory and “Column of Light” concept.

High Rise ResidentialARCH 401 Architectural Design V

Design for a residential high rise building in Seattle, with emphasis on low income apartments and temporary housing for patients of nearby hospitals. We were challenged to do research about required setbacks, municipal height limitations, green space initiatives, and safety codes.

Des Moines Studio ARCH 402 Architectural Design VI

The studio was located in Des Moines, Washington, where we interacted with residents and explained concepts for beautifying the underused and outdated waterfront town. Using photography, digital photo editing and other mixed media, we demonstrated a wide variety of possible improvements, from basic exterior paint, new city banner designs, and uses for aban-doned dry dock storage.

June 2008

I focused on simple and inexpensive elevation improvements for strip malls, dry dock conversion possibilities, and improvement of mass transit and pedes-trian access, including a unified bus stop design. The bus stops echo construction materials used at the Des Moines Mari-na, with a slanted metal roof gathering water for an incorporated planter box.
