Clearvoyance is a proposed building science center located in Bethesda, MD. The project aims to bring clarity and understanding of building science to the public by concealing and revealing key moments within the buildings’ systems. The research and public realms are united in a courtyard that bridges the gap between researchers and the public. The exterior features a juxtaposition between the opacity of shou sugi ban charred wood and kalwall cladding within two distinct forms. The public space is lined with kalwall and glazing, providing an open, refined space for community engagement. The research laboratory is contained by a taught shou sugi ban box, with an exposed glulam frame structure reaching outwards to the public park. Through the reconnection of people to the built environment, Clearvoyance spearheads harmonious building science for a sustainable future.

The Convene Valley community serves to reconnect the built and the natural environment within an urban context to promote a new vision for city life. The development will provide equitable housing for a diverse range of occupants with new outdoor greenspaces for public and private use. Adjacencies to key public transit infrastructure will provide sustainable means of access for the tenants. An expansive open marketplace will provide live-work opportunities for tenants to engage with the economic growth of the 14th St. Corridor. Native plantings sprout from the green walls that surround the central courtyard that separates the complex. The courtyard will provide visitors and tenants with new connections to the integrated garden and rainwater management strategies. The courtyard also features a flexible space to host community events.

Ecological Intrusion – Net Zero College Park

University of Maryland, College Park 2021 – 3.5 Weeks ARCH403 – Digital and Hand-crafted Media Team Project with Donato Jimenez – Individual Focus: Building Facade and Program Net Zero College Park’s new headquarters serves as a beacon of sustainability in the urbanized landscape of College Park. The building demonstrates sustainable strategies and establishes new public and private spaces for education and collaboration. Vegetation and green spaces bring nature back to the urban fabric of Baltimore Avenue while reusing elements of the previous building like the exterior mural. Wooden louvers adorn the upper levels, wrapping around the facade and reducing unnecessary heat gain. The pitched roof holds photovoltaic panels that generate clean energy for the building and its neighbors while enhancing rainwater collection for the green roof terrace and use inside the building. The central atrium acts as a light well to illuminate the building’s interior and allows for cross ventilation from the main windows to the pitched roof ’s clerestory windows.

Four Corners Re-Established – Urban Design

University of Maryland, College Park 2021 – 9.5 Weeks ARCH700 – Digital and Hand-crafted Media Team Project with Hannah Gross, Jose Gomez, Maggie Boland, and Omari Watson The intersection of University Boulevard and Colesville Road offers the opportunity for a dynamic crossroads where past and present converge. The area’s quiet residential streets terminate at a bustling commercial core, characteristic of post-World War II Washington, D.C. suburbs. This neighborhood bears the weight of heavy, modern traffic demands that have created dangerous street conditions and wasted public space. Accessibility challenges including inadequate sidewalks and limited public transportation options hinder the community’s ability to connect and form a sense of place. As such, Four Corners Re-Established is a place where traffic flows efficiently, diverse building typologies and individuals seamlessly coexist, accessibility forms the foundation of the urban experience, and neglected spaces transform into inviting communal hubs.

Canopy – Building in the Landscape

University of Maryland, College Park 2021 – 5.5 Weeks ARCH403 – Professor Brittany Williams – Digital and Hand-crafted Media Team Project with Glenn De Los Santos – Individual Focus: Building Design and Program The new National Park Service Center of Urban Ecology emerges from the terrain of the Georgetown Reservoir. The building’s massing and orientation connect to the landscape of the berm and allow improved passive solar performance. The elevated portion of the building, glulam structure, and mullion rhythm emulate the canopy of the adjacent forest. The building will provide research and education spaces for community engagement with the environment. The landscape of the field has been transformed into a microcosm of Maryland’s landscape, including hills, plains, and a wetland. An outdoor exhibit space connects to the building through an expansive social stair/ramp configuration. The walkways traversing the site provide a new experience with every visit, whether that be from the outdoor event spaces, or right next to the reservoir along the berm.
