Reciprocity, known as the mutual exchange amongst two or more parties is the foundation of human development. On a global scale the thought of reciprocity or reciprocal exchange should be a key component in travel especially in emerging countries, but this is a fallacy. As it currently stands the spectrum of travel contains two leaders: Big Tourism and Home Stay where the first dominates in its position of economic commerce while the second dominates is its position of reciprocity. Distinctively, Big Tourism leads travellers to easy, reliable, and recognizable expeditions but is a highly scripted and repetitive experience. The Home Stay leads more adventuresome travellers to a less scripted and more cultural expedition by directly having the traveller live under a localâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s roof. Although this provides great reciprocal experience between local and traveller, many difficulties are present such as with privacy and comfort. This leads to question: can a new system can be created to harness both positive ends of these types of travels? Can a new proposal for travel within emerging countries be created for the ultimate reciprocal exchange in culture and economics for both the traveller and the local? Using Peru as its area of study, this thesis explores architectureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s potential to converge with technology and be a threshold to directly merge these two types of travel into a third type, ensuring the ultimate reciprocal exchange for all involved. Through the creation of prototypical Micro Havens, locals will be able to fashion secure, comfortable, and centrally located places for tourists to stay, allowing maximum exposure to the surrounding community and environment. This project seeks to be a catalyst for resiliency among communities and at the same time create a outstanding experience for the global traveller who desires cultural experiences, education, and social interactions.

And with this focus in mind I began to think about how reciprocity or reciprocal exchange is embodied on a global scale such as with tourism, where people who are passionate about travelling exchange wealth for the opportunity to go away from home to another country, another physical space and place, to learn about people’s landscapes, cultures, and locales.

So looking at this spectrum of travel, we have big tourism on one end, where it is safe, reliable/convenient, easy but concentrates money to the few and is a highly scripted experience lacking reciprocal exchange with local culture. On the other side, we find the Home Stay where there is reciprocal exchange, but money is being distributed to too few families, it’s not as comfortable in terms of privacy and freedoms because you are in someone’s house, and accessibility or ease to go on this type of travel

involves many background checks and references. Looking at the middle of this spectrum, I could not help but feel there was a void to be filled. I started to question whether it was possible to create a system, revolving around a specific space, where the best of both worlds can be had, with the ultimate result of creating reciprocal exchange between travellers and hosts.

Home Stay Travel Type 2

The fact is, we do live in a world that is globalized, where travellers have pollinated world cultures with new ideas just by visiting and exposing themselves and the different places they come from. As is embodied by this photo, the local Peruvian native, perhaps never being able to travel outside his country, still knows about the world or the baseball team called the Los Angeles Angels. Regardless of his conscious or unconscious decision to wear his hat, that fact is that he chose it speaks volumes about

The question then is, where can a traveller find this, where can they have a more personal/reciprocal exchange? The answer leads us to the other side of the travel spectrum which is the Home Stay, which is for people who desire a less scripted experience of a country.3 This type of travel is great because you are culturally immersed as you’re involved with all experiences of your hosting family what they eat, they’re daily routines.

This studio project held complexity in both design and technical design. With the premise for creating a sculpture centre, located within Torontoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;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.

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.

Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape & Design Project role: Project Architect

The interpretation of ‘community’ carries a significant amount of meaning within literature and architecture. As a word, it’s defined as “a social group of any size whose members reside in a specific locality, share government, and often have a common culture.” With this consideration of common entities sharing spaces or ideologies, our design thesis was formed: A division of major programmatic building units closely attached or adjacent to one another altogether achieving unity in the context of a large public park space. By carrying forth the literal significance of community, where common entities share spaces and be unified, our design thesis was established. With the strategy to build three major cohesive building entities on site, creating unique interior spaces, and shaping new outdoor program spaces for all public users to utilize to the fullest, the new Dufferin Grove Community Centre not only carries a considerable amount of literal expression, but an architectural one as well.

Over the course of a semester, students were to develop, research, and frame a final dormatory building project all influenced by the studioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s core subject: sleep. Through case studies of buildings associated with sleep, as well as research dedicated to sleep as a component of program and significance in time cycles, the final project in this studio was realized.

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 projectâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;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 buildingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;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.
