Multi-Family - SD through CA, DOB, LPC The Fractal Group, 2017-19 - Project Designer & Manager
Gramercy Park multi-family building. Units: 6 + Doctor Office Area: 6,964 SF. Floors: Cellar, basement, first to third floor & bulkhead. Construction: on going. This three stories Greek Revival style townhouse built c. 1850-1851 with later alterations is located in Stuyvesant Square Historic District. Left in poor condition a gut renovation is performed to revive its historical features but also reinforce the exiting structure, and create an accessible entry. The renovation of cellar level includes a new slab to welcome mechanical, storage, and a laundry room. The creation of a new medical office on the basement floor is possible thanks to the new accessible entry, and the upper floors area renovated to five apartments. A new HVAC system, new plumbing, and extensive structural reinforcement of existing structure are planned on the overall building.

Small Lots NYC PROFESSIONAL WORK
Affordable Housing - RFP NYC
18 -
The Fractal Group 2019 - Studio Project As a result of previous development and irregularities in zoning and parcels, small and odd lots are a common thread in every neighborhood of New York City. The research for each community district provided some distinct demographics numbers to inform various city typologies for each lot, ranging from multi-family townhouses to single family houses. Versa Wall is a project serving the versatility of the various small lots in NYC. The 3 typologies are grouped by neighborhoods and based on our analysis, we found similarities between the five boroughs. By dividing the lots in three categories we propose to address housing needs in each community district as they best fit in each specific environment. The three typologies: detached 2 families houses, Multifamily townhouses and Shared Living, allowed us to keep a similar construction method but with the flexibility to adapt the layout needed for the different communities. Replicability for all typologies and on all lots is based on a common simple concept: the living wall. This interior organization allows us address each lot in a similar manner by adapting to the type of units required and the core location. All utilities - gas, electricity and plumbing - related spaces are located within this wall with a minimum thickness to allow for comfortable but efficient spaces. The living wall can extend, depending on the length of the lot size and typology needs and is linked to a passive space (bedroom, living room...).

Mall Redevelopment Research PROFESSIONAL WORK
From Mall to City - Research & Schematic Design The Fractal Group 2018-19 - Studio Project A proposal to redevelop mall facilities into mixed-use complex. Traditional mall shopping is in decline resulting many mall facilities to be abandoned. Our research tends to understand how to redevelop mall facilities by adding residential towers on top of the traditional mall. By extending the anchor stores to towers the mall is transformed to a small city were inhabitants can find all they need within the same facility. Danbury mall, CT, is chosen to develop a typical project. The site is thought for future transportation, including driverless and electric cars as well as more public transportation access. Green space is brought back to the site and a sustainable strategy is developed for water management, passive heating and cooling, as well as renewable energy.
26 -
The program is in development but is thought to bring back recreational space, green spaces but also vertical farming and shared work space. This project is an on going research, in discussion with developers.

Mexico City Airport Schematic Design -Santa Lucia International Terminal The Fractal Group 2019 Mexico City is developing a masterplan for its new airport located north of the city. Paired with the existing army terminal, the existing proposed masterplan was given to have a extended design study utilizing concrete prefabricated structure and panels. The design aims to blend in with the landscape and imitate local fauna such as the cactus by creating a gradient of different shaded panels.

Geneva Town, NY - Lakefront Park Public Art Shade - Runner Up
COMPETITION
Group project with The Fractal Group Role: Conceptual Design, 3D Modeling, Graphic Design and Details The more than one-hundred weeping willow trees that have lined the northern end of Seneca Lake since the 1800’s stand as symbols in the lake-front park. Their growth naturally shades people out for a stroll as well as those pausing to sit on the benches beneath their branches. The willow trees natural shade, from their movement, density and beauty are translated through fabric. Flowing from a steel structure, the fabric embodies the leaved branches that fall down from the tree by swaying in response to the wind, providing protection from the sun with its multiple layers, and falling to various lengths. The metal structure supports the shading fabric standing strong, tall, and in branching multiples like a tree. Clusters of structure are connected to further clusters, similar to tree relationships within a forest.

The structural construction method is derived from details of wine barrels made in Geneva. The clusters of our narrow, metal tubes define the perimeter of a circle on the ground and are wrapped with wooden supporting members. The long tubes supported by the wooden circles mimic the oak staves being wrapped by the hoops in wine barrel construction.

Bird Tower Observation Bee Breeders - Pape Nature Reserve, Latvia Group project with Mark Berlinrut & Jonathan Vega Role: Coordination, Conceptual Design, Graphic Design and Renders Auroxen
In this tower, we do not observe nature from above, we experience nature within. The Pape Nature Reserve is a sensible environment developed to enhance the relationship between people and the natural splendor of the Latvian landscape. The observation tower is imagined as a point of intensity, amplifying the sensuality of the environment for human perception, between the flora, the birds but also the wild horses and cattle.
Great Birttens
By supplementing the observation tower’s primary role of seeing with a secondary program for listening the visit transcends the senses. Dishes are placed throughout the tower and offer a chance to pause and listen, using amplified acoustics materialized by dishes of locally-crafted ceramic tiles arranged in parabolic arrays. The bird observation tower becomes an full sensory experience.

Dish Sound Study
Tower Wall Section
In order to perfectly capture the sounds of Pape Nature Park’s abundant wildlife, we analyzed a series of parabolic shapes. Sound travels in waves, which means it must be focused in a specific point in order to maximize the clarity and amplification of distant sounds. They provide an important acoustical link to the nature park as a visitor climbs to the rooftop observation deck. 1

CARNIVAL CONFESSIONAL Carnival Confessional The challenge of media is to break the boundary of the screen. The limitations of traditional digital media is that it has only image and sound (think of an iPad screen). Instead of walling in what a mediascape could be within the limits of visual/auditory media, we attempted to open a new door in Tenancingo, a door that that opens into an exploration in a multi-sensory experiment embedded deep within the local culture.

#SENSATIONS Observing the northern light is an experience. Visitors travel from around the world looking forward to seeing this extraordinary natural phenomenon surrounded by a vast and wild landscape. #MEDITATION The project focuses on enhancing the senses and observation by making the visitors wander through the landscape and feel the environment. The wander brings the visitor to enter their mindscape before getting to their cabins to observe the Aurora Borealis and the vast icelandic landscape.

#SKY EXPERIENCE The buildings face such an incredible scenery, hiding and merging themselves with the landscape only to emerge as they are approached. The visitors discover the different spaces through the journey to his cabin. Separated programmatically, the buildings disappear during the day under the vegetation and glow at night resembling a volcano crater in eruption. A depression shapes the craters creating different views focused on the sky and hides them within the scenery of the landscape.

#LIGHTPATH The journey brings the visitors to observe the lights in different spaces, states of mind, angles and environments. The entry is located on the lowest point of the site where visitors park to then rise through a path towards the highest point. They then get a better sight of the beautiful land before entering their cabins to observe the lights privately.
#CRATER The cabins stand out from this curved landscape architecture as rock formations creating a dialogue with the existing volcanic rocks. Organized around the bed,lights embrace the visitors as a cloud, enhancing the observation within the cabin. The reflection allows the visitors to forget their environment and enter their mindscape within the northern lights.

Waste is the inescapable byproduct of capitalism, and capitalism is as inescapable as its waste. This stadium functions both as a monument to Lagos’s economic past, and a locus for its economic growth. It seeks to preserve the memory of trash by using it as a cast to create an amphitheater emphasizing nature and inspiring artists showcasing underneath the field of 3D-printed stadium columns. After the big game, the stadium transforms into rolling grass fields above, and vibrant art and music market below. The stadium becomes the point tying the city’s past with its future. In Lagos, waste creates its own growth.
