Our processes are never alike,
Architecture is a process. As an individual, my admiration is not towards the outcome of a project, but its beginnings and progression. As humans, we are sometimes, if not most of the times, frightened for what is unexpected. We are frightened because we are not in control for what happens in our future stages of time. However, if motivated, interested, and allowing one self’s ability to grow, and learn from mistakes, there is no need to fear what happens next. This is because, a great result is simply a great process of betterment. Finally,
Which is why no one is right, Nor wrong for the exploration, grows with time`s involvement on motivation, creative one should not know the outcome, for it may lead to a great future endeavor...short run, what is next? no human should know,
process is directly related to individual experiences. It can never be called correct or incorrect, it is simply lived, explored, unique, and never the same.
for we are humans, curious, explore, question, grow

This elective course “focused on the scale of great urban rooms within the City of Toronto, and its contribution to our understanding the role of architecture as a physical and cultural force in our daily lives.� As architect students we were to research, document, visit, and analyse our designated room. The art of the measured drawing was significant for the study of each room. Orientation, scale, geometry, detail, and much more were acknowledged for the appreciation of each room.

Within this collaborative exercise, students were to explore a free form surface of choice, and create a seamless facade system on its exterior. The surface chosen for this project was a mobius striped turned into a mobius donut geometry. The facade system imposed was a triangular skin that had an outer and inner structure, altogether created through algorithmic scripts in Grasshopper plug-in for Rhinoceros 3D. Having parametric parameters, the shape of the mobius donut, as well as the facade imposed, could change its composition in shape and size. The final result was a playful pavilion that had sunshine permeance for users to experience.

THE LIVE/WORK CUBE Course: Studio I (ASF31A/Fall 2006) Studio professor: June Komisar Bachelor of Architectural Science Ryerson University
Although basic in its geometry, the cube has been a fundamental solid in the realms of mathematics, science, art, and particularly, architecture. Defined as a solid bound ed by six equal squares with perpendicular adjacent faces, one should think that the cube is absolute, and should not be tampered with. The Live/Work Cube project attempted to challenge this absolute form, exploring ways to fuse program and user qualities into its shape. Playing with its form, I focused on the ability to manipulate the cube’s geometries in order to place emphasis on light and space in relation to circulation and program spaces.

OLYMPIC VILLAGE Course: Digital Architectural Modelling (CKDA 602/Winter 2010) Professor: Karen Ho-Cespedes Bachelor of Architectural Science Ryerson University
Digital Modeling has become an extremely important tool for designers today, giving us the ability to visualize and manipulate our ideas and concepts early during the design process. Unrestricted to physical complications, the modelling world allows a high degree of exploration in architectural structure and form. The Olympic Village Project’s objective was to conceive, model, and render residences for competing athletes for the next Olympic games. In this project I used the idea of “transprogramming” (Bernard Tschumi, Architecture and Disjunction), where one “combines two programs, regardless of their incompatibilities, together with their respective spatial configurations”. The final product became residential modules housed under a public green roof park, branching off a significant structural bridge, exploring the advantage of infrastructure space to situate residences and public space.

KIDS FIRST EARLY LEARNING CENTRE Course: Studio II (ASF32A/Fall 2007) Studio professor: John Ingrao Bachelor of Architectural Science Ryerson University
With a program of medium complexity, the project takes strides in multiple layers of design. For instance, site is a address early, acknowledging the projects need for views and open space. In addition, section is broken down and rearranged with the use of program space in a playful manner, relating to kid blocks. This approach of “blocks� goes further into the facade design of the building, where window design can be viewed or ordered 4 ways: blocks, voids, extrudes and frames.

ISOSCELES DESIGN/BUILD (Summer Internship, 2009/2010) Company Executives: Michael Lo & Lawrence Lo
Established in 2008 Isosceles Design/Build (IDB) is a young design/build company focusing on small projects throughout the Greater Toronto Area. What distinguishes IDB from other companies is its unique design-build approach, focusing on the reusability of a building’s existing materials and technologies and their adaptability into new construction. Apart from reusing existing building components, IDB also customizes and creates its own millwork to fit specific project needs. During the two summers I was employed with IDB, I had the opportunity to be a part of the design and construction of two projects: 1398 Queen Street West and 391 Cairncroft.
1398 QUEEN ST. WEST Residing in the Parkdale neighbourhood of Toronto, the area contains a problematic lower class demographic in need of newer facilities. This particular project attempts to revitalize the former drug infested building, transforming it into an economical and multifunctional entity within the community. Being a design-build firm, I was involved in both the design and construction phases. I was responsible for generating a Revit model that provided drawings for construction and permit applications, as well as detailed renderings. During construction, I was able to understand how the building operates systematically, which greatly enhanced my appreciation for the tangible and intangible aspects of architecture.

ST. THOMAS CONSOLIDATED COURTHOUSE Constructed within a residential neighborhood in St. Thomas Ontario, 1853, the St. Thomas (Elgin County) Courthouse is a provincially designated heritage building. With respect to project’s premise of being a preservation and expansion project, the design proposal was focused on three tasks: preserving and restoring the Elgin County Courthouse and the former Land Registry Office, as well as providing a significant but subtle architectural addition. Having an established arrangement of a tripartite portico entry, the new addition anchors the existing building’s backdrop with its symmetrical extension to the east and west. Within the design of the building, a three storey atrium space was created to act as a spatial separation between the existing building and new addition. During this portion of the project I was given the opportunity to work on the interior design of the atrium space and public corridors, specifically materials arrangement, application, scale, order, and colour renderings for final presentation.

Q-SHIP TOWER The Q-Ship Tower was a unique proposal in that it had to be completed and submitted within 7 days. With the premise that the tower would be made for Qatar Navigation Company, opportunity had risen to create a distinguished landmark that would utilize its immediate surroundings. Fluid forms were the inspiration for the design of the building, including, billowing sails, water motion, and sand dunes. In addition, the outer skin design obtains a cultural appearance of a cloak wrapping around the building. Within this short scheduled proposal, I was given opportunity to work directly with Associate Principal, Stephen Hancock, who led the design and team of the Q-Ship Tower. I was given the responsibility for all model tasks including, massing, concept iterations, detailed facade designs, and final elevation renderings for presentation.

PIXELIZATION (THESIS CHARETTE #1) Course: Thesis ARC41A (Fall Semester 2009) Thesis Coordinator: Ian MacBurnie Thesis Instructor: Jamie Lee (WZMH Architects) Bachelor of Architectural Science Ryerson University
In this week-long design charette, the challenge was to redefine the “threshold” of Ryerson Architecture Building’s Church Street entrance into an event. Realizing the discontinuity of the inside and outside, we attempted to create a dialogue between the two, using the concept of socio-spatial permeability as the bridge. The entrance vestibule is considered as “the threshold”, being a convergence of “pixels” in a double-ended funnel, architecturally drawing people in and through. Involving a “pixelated” canopy and strategically placed seating and floor tiles, the idea was conceived with a full cost estimate and instructions for assembly, expressing its feasibility.

LAMP DESIGN Independent Study (Non-course Related) Bachelor of Architectural Science Ryerson University
The premise of my lamp design was exploring a circle’s 2D and 3D geometry. Basic properties of a circle begin with radius, tangent, diameter, secant, and chord. Acknowledging these properties, an algorithm was created and applied to a surface in the parametric program Grasshopper. Having complete control of a circle properties on a surface, that could later be manipulated far from a flat surface, a structure was needed to support the parametric mesh. Within five extractions of a circle, a structure was established and the mesh was applied producing the final design of the lamp.

HENRY MOORE WATERFRONT SCULPTURAL CENTRE Course: Studio III ARC21A/B (Fall/Winter Semester 2008/2009) Professor: John Ingrao Bachelor of Architectural Science Ryerson University
This studio project held complexity in both design and technical design. With the premise for creating a sculpture centre, located within Toronto’s East Bayfront, for housing and displaying significant Henry Moore sculptures, this year long project involved many phases of design (i.e. preliminary, schematic, and design development). Site analysis, Ontario Building Code study were also considered within building design. The final design of my sculptural centre considered transparencies and visual voids.

URBAN DESIGN PROJECT: ST. JAMES TOWN Course: Theory IV ARC612 (Fall Semester 2009) Professor: Ian MacBurnie Bachelor of Architectural Science Ryerson University
As an urban design project, the task was to redesign a master plan for the community of St. James town, in the spirit of Foreign Office Architects (FOA). Using the design principles of their firm, the team was engaged in an iterative but interesting process of conceiving the final design. The final design included the widening and depression of streets, allowing for cars and people to pass through, making the streets livelier, and ultimately, more pedestrian friendly.
MACRO SITE ANALYSIS
INTERNAL ANCHORS Programmatically the neighbourhood can be identified in 3 internal anchors: the park, the services and the libary. Individually they attract various users from relevant areas around the site. The overlap of their connections creates the possibility of an internal circulation thereby achieving a more even distribution of circulation between site and its surrounding. EXTERNAL ANCHORS Areas of interests including neighborhoods an parksROSEDALE are fed by various circulatory sources. The possibility of making connections ROSEDALE to these anchors across and around the site creates opportunities to blur the interface between the interior and exterior of the TTC SHERBOURNE BLOORDON DONVALLEY VALLEY TTC TTCSHERBOURNE SHERBOURNE building.

BAQA’A COMMUNITY CENTRE Course: Thesis ARC41A (Fall/Winter Semester 2009-2010) Thesis Instructor: Jamie Lee (WZMH Architects) Thesis Mentor: Mark Baechler (Teeple Architects) Bachelor of Architectural Science Ryerson University
Since the advent of Israel’s establishment as a state, the immigration flux of 500,000 West Bank Palestinians moving into Jordan holds historic significance of human progress and growth for new urban fabrics. With the assimilation of the Palestinian population, as well as economic development, 78% of the country’s population live within urban environments today. However, the past priority of the dwelling unit has currently raised negligence of community amenities and open space within certain cities, such as Baqa’a. Thus, the creation of a community centre, amalgamating landscape and building, progressing human hierarchy of needs is the focus of this thesis.
