OREGON PREPAREDNESS AND RESILIENCY CENTER School Term Type
UO A&AA Winter 2017 Thesis Studio Interactive Learning Center
The “Big One”, the offshore earthquake poised to change the landscape of almost the entire West Coast of the United States, is long overdue and the population in the Pacific Northwest is drastically underprepared. The need for an institution that can train, educate, and prepare the population of the region is ever-rising. The Oregon Preparedness and Resiliency Center serves as a center-point of education and training to better equip all those who visit the center or access its resources online. The OPRC is located on the waterfront in Southeast Portland next to OMSI at the foot of the Tilikum Crossing, the only bridge structured to withstand an earthquake of a magnitude of 8.0, and off of the Eastbank Esplanade, a popular path for alternative modes of transportation. This location enables the OPRC to adequately serve as a beacon for education and a bunker for survival.
The project was meant to serve as a space for education, information, and awareness before a disaster and a place for refuge, resupply, and assistance in the event of a disaster. The Response Center can operate year-round off the grid and has the capacity to supply 1/3 of the population of Portland’s water needs for two days of travel.

PORTLAND REFUGEE HOUSING School Term Type
UO A&AA Fall 2016 Mixed-Use / Housing
Commercial Continuity
This mixed-use housing project attempts to introduce a flexible modular design that accommodates the wide variety of needs of a refugee family. Flexible design within the units is critical to accommodate family sizes between 2 and 8 people that can later be transformed into a split unit to generate rent income. The complex includes a combination of community and commercial spaces on the ground floor that can be transformed into 100% commercial spaces once the refugees feel comfortable in their new city. The courtyard typology combined with front porch flower beds and different communal gardens creates a sense of community and security as well as instilling a sense of pride and ownership Community Programs amongst the occupants.
Two-story unit
Semi-Public Private Semi-Private Semi-Public Public
Privacy Gradient
Single-story unit
Each unit faces both the street exterior and communal interior and addresses. The unit program is strategically placed to provide a privacy gradient that allows the unit to be completely shut off or open up to whichever edge condition the inhabitants choose to enjoy.
Both unit typologies are enhanced by easily replaced walls to help reconfigure the space and accommodate for larger or smaller families. This flexibility also allows the unit to grow and change and adapt to the inhabitants over time as the size of the family fluctuates.
Throughout history, gardens have been utilized as coping mechanisms to comfort those in times of great stress or change. This project provides ample open space and garden space to each individual unit to assist refugees with transitioning into their new lives’ in Portland.
The courtyard typology, interior circulation, and shared communal spaces –both indoor and outdoor– engender a sense of stability and belonging within the housing complex. This typology is not common to Portland, but it is critical for rebuilding communities.

DANISH PAVILION
School Term Type
DIS Copenhagen Summer 2015 Open-Air Pavilion
Tasked to create an easily constructible pavilion that the community can enjoy in various ways. The city of Copenhagen itself and the site within Kongens Have served as critical elements of inspiration for both form and function. With it’s simple configuration and diverse spaces, the project accommodates introspection while simultaneously encouraging social interaction. The pavilion can be utilized throughout most of the year by providing a forum for public artwork and serving as a platform for various festivals that occur in the city.

UO A&AA Winter 2017 Enclosure Design
Tasked to design an enclosure for a hypothetical building in southwest Portland. A terracotta panel facade rainscreen wall wraps the first two floors and a curtain wall wraps the top three floors to create a distinction between the ground floor commercial/ lobby and office conditions. The enclosure was required to include fireproofing, concrete structure, and a vegetated terrace and the opaque wall assembly achieved an R-Value of 29.
