Growing up, I always wanted to be a nurse because I love helping people. However after shadowing one in 7th grade, I quickly realized that a profession that deals with blood and needles is not for me. It was not until my sophomore year of high school that I decided to look into architecture, and then, looking back on my life, everything began to add up to this profession. When I was little, I would always ask for Lego’s for my birthday and Christmas. Art was always the subject of choice in school, as well as math-surprisingly. In addition, I have always had a passion for baking because it allows being creative and experimenting with ingredients. Finally, I found that architecture parallels to nursing because both are public services by way of professional knowledge. Architecture is a combination of all of my interests and hobbies.

I was able to observe the many steps needed in completing projects and was asked to contribute in various phases of different projects. I was included in planning meetings as well as training sessions. One project I was asked to complete was creating an inventory spreadsheet and program for furniture that was in a warehouse in another state that they needed for a project.

PrecedentMurcia Town HallMurcia, Spain
Rafael Moneo designed the building, located in the Cardinal Belluga Plaza, which is also home to the Cathedral and Cardinal’s Palace.The facade is oriented towards the Cathedral, and the balcony is on the same horizontal plane as central balcony of the Palace. The facade materials are brick and sandstone, and the lateral facade is adapted to the dimensions of the street. In addition, the columns are numerically organized as a musical score, using the horizontal levels.

The location of this site is at the intersection of Southwest Boulevard and Central Street in the Crossroad District of Kansas City, Missouri. The precedent I decided to use was RGA Headquarters in St. Louis, Missouri. It was just recently built and is made up of two glass boxes sitting on top of a main solid building. One of the key reasons I chose this as my precedent is because the structure is exposed through the glass. I enjoy the way the building lights up at night and how the solid braced columns contrast with the transparent glass. Therefore, I incorporated the idea into my design and decided to make a brick building in the shape of the site and a glass box that sits on top of it. Another reason I used the concept of a glass box was because the Kauffman Center, located up the street, has a glass façade. It is an iconic building in Kansas City, and I wanted the Cultural Center and Auditorium to be seen as an important place, too. Most of the surrounding buildings have a brick façade, which is what inspired me to use brick in my design. The brick building is extended up two floors on the side adjacent to the building next to the site, to create a smooth transition to the glass box. I used horizontal fin system with steel vertical columns to support the curtain wall, as well as braced steel columns like RGA Headquarters used in their building. Surrounding the glass, I then employed a green roof to improve sustainability and create a view on the balconies of the auditorium.

Sudying precedent is more than tracing drawings and printing images from the web. because another thing that separates good designers from great designers is the ability to “read” and understand precedent. more specifically, the ability to discern what is worth stealing and what is best left on the table. On this project, my group and I analyzed the Rose Center for Earth and Space, which is part of the American Museum of Natural History in New York, New York. The overarching focus of this analysis was the building’s structure and skin. however, we were also suppossed to pay attention to the building’s overall form and function.

The objective of this project was to create a new iconic entrance to the Kansas City Convention Center on 14th Street in Kansas City, Missouri. Currently, the complex consists of multiple interconnected buildings that are designed to host independent, simultaneous events. Therefore, each building has multiple entrances to accommodate the multiple events that may be going on. However, this causes a significant issue on where the location of the main entrance to the convention center actually is. The solution to the problem is to create an entrance to the entire complex. Consequently, the City of Kansas City and the Conventions and Visitors Bureau of Kansas City, have identified the space between Municipal Auditorium and the Conference Center (currently known to be part of 14th Street) as the ideal place for the new entrance.
The majority of the materials used in the design of the entrance center were glass and steel. Using a variety of steel truss systems, I was able to support the glass curtain walls that made up the roof and façade. In addition, trusses were used to make the oculus structurally stable so that it could support most of the program requirements, and create a visual focal point for people approaching the complex. The program requirements included 2 small meeting rooms (200sf), 2 large meeting rooms (400 sf), 2 storage rooms for the meeting rooms (100sf), a lobby for each of the large meeting rooms (50sf), 1 loading dock for two trucks, 1 information desk (150sf), 1 coat room (150sf), a bar that seats 15, and a restaurant that seats 30 and includes a food storage area (150sf) and a kitchen/food prep area (250sf). I wanted to create a focal point that would make people want to enter the complex, and I think I achieved that with this design. The oculus creates curiosity and a desire to explore.

Pavilion of SilenceKastelletCopenhagen, Denmark
When entering a dark heavy concrete building one comes upon the feeling of tranquility and silence. Sliver is a space that brings about these experiential qualities one observes while spending time within this pavilion of silence. With the concrete walls, each a half of a meter thick, combined with wooden floors and ceiling, it creates spatial qualities that promote calmness, contemplation, and tranquility.
Cradle - To - CradleThe building is primarily made out of concrete that can be turned into aggregate and re-used. The wooden floor and roof can also easily be recycled. In addition, instead of digging into the site to add foundation, the pavilion is built on a leveled out slab of concrete- due to the fact that it is a temporary design.

The objective of this project was to design a glassblowing workshop and retail store for an artisan in Lawrence. The site was a 50’ x 115’ vacant lot on the south side of the 1000 block on Massachusetts Street in downtown Lawrence. We were told to use around 5,000 square feet, and to pay attention to the surrounding buildings. My goal was to draw people into the workshop and cafe by having a translucent facade that resembles a theater curtain. Therefore, it looks like the building is revealing the blown glass artwork.

Throughout the American Southwest, a number of sites exist that exemplify the architectural and cultural traditions of the indigenous inhabitants of the land. Many of these sites are in danger of deterioration or destruction by wind and water erosion and the overuse by tourists. This program is designed to provide a roof enclosure to prevent water damage to a fragile adobe ruin and to create a sense of the architectural space that the ruins represent.
I was inspired by the Kauffman Center of Performing Arts in Kansas City, Missouri. High tension steel cables are anchored to support the glass enclosure. The glass is protected with UV Protection Film.

The objective of this project was to design a non-denominational chapel for the West Campus at KU. The main campus has been served for more than half a century by Danforth Chapel, and there is a need for a similar kind of structure on the new and growing campus west of Iowa Street. We were told the chapel should be a place of contemplation and inspiration, and it should be designed to accommodate a wide range of ceremonies and rituals. Because the chapel would not be associated with any particular belief system, it needed to embody a universal sense of repose, hope, and solitude. It also had to serve as a major visual object in the landscape and a landmark for visitors entering the campus from Iowa Street. The specific functions that were to be accommodated in the chapel were seating for 45, a speaking dais, a gowning area and toilet, and a storage area for folding chairs, tables, and religious objects. In addition, the total square footage of the structure was not to exceed 800 SF.Process:

Systems1st Year, Fall 2012
In a previous project, called ‘Transformation’, we were asked use an apparently random set of lines to make a purposeful form. This ability to extract order from chaos is what capitalized on in this project. We used repetition and rhythm to create a system of parts that, when assembled, allows something larger to be constructed: a pod wall. The individual parts may be complex, or intricate, but the system provided order.
This unit ended up being one of my favorite projects of my first semester, first year. At first I was skeptical about creating a model out of an 11”x17” piece of paper, but it turned out really interesting. After experimenting with a couple of different options, I ended up making one of my final models on my third try. I really liked cutting little slits in the lines on my paper, and then cutting a couple of big lines so that I could create a curve in the paper by sticking one of the points through the slit. The next model that I used in my final presentation was my fifth one. I focused more on folding to create nice lines.

The picture above shows the connection between Eleven Lake and Waterway Park. Looking at a site map, my group and I found that the two sites could easily be connected to promote the use of the two sites. The yellow shows the way the two sites can be connected and the purple shaded lots show the vacant lots and buildings. The red rectangle shows an existing community center.
One of the reasons Eleven Lake is part of a food desert is because no one in the community wants to go near it because they believe it is poisonous. In reality, the lake is too high in Phosphourous levels, making an excess of algae grow, therefore killing the fish and making it look unappealing to visit. Our solution to solving that problem, along with our way of connecting the lake to Waterway Park, is to have bioswales along the roads that surround the lake, and the roads that create the pathway from the lake to the park. Therefore, the urban runoff from them goes into the bioswales rather than the lake, creating high phosphorous levels, and the two sites are connected and made into one.

Our solution to the food desert problem is to create community gardens in the vacant lots along the yellow path seen in the site photo. The above left and middle photos exemplify the main idea that these kinds of community gardens can not only be installed in the Eleven Lake community, but also in any city that contains a food desert. Many urban environments in the United States contain abondoned lots and buildings due to the state of the economony, therefore we have come up with an efficient way for communites to get together and make these gardens. With the uase of old railroad tracks the gardens can be put in beds above the ground (so they can be put in lots that may not have good soil for growing). By having the beds on railroad tracks, they can be pushed together so that there is an open space for community members to gather in. The abandoned buildings can then be used for farmer markets and events where maybe local restaurants can come in and hold demonstrations on how to cook the food they grow. An app can even be made to show where local gardens are located. The roofs of the centers can capture rain water and bioswales can be installed around the site to catch urban runoff from the streets. This is a way to bring communites together and to try to elimated food deserts.
