POETRY + LITERATURE CENTER The Austin Poetry and Literature Center is composed of a series of boxes to define programs that are connected by a simple circulation path. This is representative of all the different varieties and genres of poetry that are collected at the Austin Poetry and Literature Center.

PROCESS Extruded volumes were manipulated to create modules used for bookcases, stairs, and spaces to dwell. Additional inspiration was taken from a box that held an interpretation of a poem.
How happy is the little Stone That rambles in the Road alone, And doesn’t care about Careers And Exigencies never fears— Emily Dickinson

LADY BIRD JOHNSON WILDFLOWER CENTER BUILDING This building is centered around one of the most interesting trees on the site. It is a large Oak tree whose trunk is laying horizontally on the ground. Its limbs spread in all directions, providing shade and the occasional place to sit. Similar to roots, the building uses the tree as a its axis and spreads out with some volumes extruding more than others. The building will be used to educate its visitors about the special trees at the center as well as provide space for events to be held.

The building specifically addresses rain, wind, and sun. It’s roof slopes to collect water in the basins below. The covered exterior space in the center functions like a dog trot that funnels the air through the center to cool the building in the summer. Windows were placed to receive the best light and views.
MODULAR WAVE LUMINAIRE The Lady Bird Lake Trail at night is dark and often unpopulated due to the lack of illumination on the path. Because of these existing conditions, the Modular Wave is a fitting solution to provide a safe, illuminated path for those who wish to use the trail at night.

ARCH RESOURCE DESK The resource desk is designed so it can function with only one volunteer. The clients of the ARCH can receive information on one side and food and water on the other. Built in cabinetry behind the desk and along the study carrels stores extra supplies that would otherwise have to be stored elsewhere. Study nooks allow clients to prepare for job interviews and/or relax in their own space.

AUSTIN WOMEN + CHILDREN’S SHELTER The project illustrates the idea that designed spaces can foster INTERACTION that promotes healing and an improvement in well-being. The first kind of interaction, the INDIVIDUAL WITH NATURE, explores engaging with the natural environment from within the protective shell of the interior, so the residents of the building can effectively benefit from the beauty and healing effects of nature without being fully engulfed in its solitude. The second kind of interaction, the INDIVIDUAL WITH INDIVIDUAL, identifies the potential for the establishment of support groups within families and within the residing community through carefully designed spaces that promote comfort and communication.
The screens create intimacy by dividing the space. They also allow the residents to easily customize their living spaces. Art and notes can be hung or pinned to the screens with magnets.

CHALAYAN PATTERN MAKING
Extract
Duplicate Flip Repeat Offset
Fill
Overlap
Stretch
Distort
A pattern was generated from a geometry found in an article of Chalayan fashion. This geometry was then duplicated, flipped, repeated, and offset to create a continuous pattern that was then filled in with color. Afterwards, the pattern was projected onto the wall to experiment with distortion and perspective.

CHALAYAN POP-UP SHOP The Chalayan Pop-up Shop was based off a dress that has two distinctly different layers. One is a soft pliable fabric, and the other is a stiff structured fabric. The soft fabric slides behind the stiff one. Here, the concept of an inner and an outershell is introduced. The area where the fabrics overlap is considered the middle shell.

The outer-shell is hard and cold. It is what one sees on the outside. The middle shell is revealed as one looks through the entrance into the store. The inner shell is the most intimate space, typically the fitting room or lounge. The inner shell is composed of the most plush and inviting materials.

The store is composed of geometry inspired from Chalayan pieces to organize the space. A horizontal grain slowly guides the clients from the public outershell of the store to an intimate inner-shell.
PLANS + AXON The exterior of the store functions as the outer-shell. As one enters, they are pulled through by a horizontal grain found in floor displays and lights above. This grain pulls the customer through the middle-shell, up the stairs into the inner-shell where lounging, fitting, and transactions occur. The materials also become warmer as one approaches the inner-shell.
