Vertical Circulation District
A contradiction: there is an innate desire for permanence in our place of dwelling, but a flexible building is more sustainable, more profitable and more capable of producing new social conditions. If we acknowledge that our perceptions of change are only relative and fragmentary, we can more flexibly attribute permanence to an urban artifact, the building. By strategically keeping some parts static relative to the subject, they will be perceived as permanent, and we can introduce true flexibility into the rest of the building, anticipating changing occupation over time.
Void Object Program Public Path
Vertical Circulation Void Public Path Object Program District
Permanence is perceived by connecting memory to place. Spatial characteristics like mass, stability of horizon, symmetry and opacity increase this remembered permanence; fragmentation, instability and lightness suggest the temporary. The temporary-permanent building balances its expression between the two poles, using an understanding of the potential relative time frames of perception to guide which parts might be more or less flexible. Because memory operates as a collection of fragments, the building proposes a series of linked nodes - moments open to the attribution of memory - that are dispersed along a public path. These permanent moments are expressed as massive concrete shells that enclose nothing but air: a void into which the visitor projects his memories.

The prototype as formed by nodes was then tested on two adjacent sites. A 75-acre area of Washington DC, immediately south of the US Capitol, has been reconfigured to reconnect a dense residential neighborhood with a blocky, massive office building district. The temporary-permanent building can work at both scales and accommodate both building types. Through reconfigurable units and a common relationship between nodes of program and a public path, the prototype remains intact. The spaces between the nodes are infilled by small units of program either housing or office space.
HOUSING
While the Eastern Building is predominantly housing and hotel units, the Western Building abuts the SW Federal District. A complex multi-use building takes office space as the main program but around each node, connected by public path, are institutional and cultural hubs. In this configuration of the prototype, the Voids are inhabitable as exterior balcony spaces or entry points to the Building.

The structural system of the building is condensed into 9’ x 9’ cores, which support the larger floor slabs and contain “materially permanent” infrastructures: toilets, sinks, cooling and heating elements, elevators, etc. These fixed pieces are consolidated to miniature cores so that the layout can more easily change around these islands of fixed use. The permanent voids and the miniature cores aggregate to produce a node-based structuring system for the building, which can then be configured to accommodate almost any site or program.

HOME - FOR - ALL
The goal of the Home-for-All is to create an architectural catalyst to revive the urban downtown of Kamaishi. In order to revitalize this city, the downtown needs an inspiring new center from which the community can initiate urban revitalization. Our Home-for-All is located at the intersection of Kamaishi’s two main commercial axes. This enables it to re-center the city and by catalyzing activity, spread regeneration throughout the downtown. The Home-for-All can attract and accommodate a variety of different types of activity. By bringing together a broad collection of Kamaishi’s residents, it can foster new connections and become a starting point for Kamaishi’s regrowth. A flexible architectural system will compose the Home-for-All; through the simple offering of a community space, the people of Kamaishi will be encouraged to leave their temporary homes and come back to the city.

The basic architectural element - something between a column and wall - acts like a tree, attracting people through simple surface programming. The adjacency of a table, a bench, or a shelf invites people to relax as they lean against the wall, gather around a table and eat, and read while still connected to neighbors. A collection of these forms an open space that is loosely defined by different activities around and between nodes, allowing various activities to occur in the same place, sometimes simultaneously, sometimes at different times. The system is simply composed of a set of minimally designed horizontal surfaces easily put into a vertical wall, inviting the user to create his or her own desired space.

The Home-for-All will also provide a space for shop owners and entrepreneurs to establish their businesses. As the Home-for-All aids in the commercial revitalization of the downtown, its progress is tracked on the entrance wall to the shop. The Home-for-All will spread its identity by integrating its basic elements (column-walls and deck) into the urban environment. Over time, the home-for-all transforms from a single beacon and gathering point to an element within the forest of a larger system, a regenerated city.

Column-Wall Trees offer a recognizable landmark to meet a friend, a shaded place to relax, provide a good backrest when reading a book, or be a pleasant space for a picnic. Similarly, the basic architectural element - something between a column and wall - can attract people through simple surface programming. The adjacency of a table, a bench, or a shelf invites people to relax as they lean against the wall, gather around a table and eat, and read while still connected to neighbors. The goal is an open space that is loosely deďŹ ned by different activities around and between nodes. 01 Model Photograph / Home-for All Interior 02 Diagram / Gathering around a Tree or Column-Wall 03 Plan / Ground Floor

The goal is to activate space by allowing various activities to occur in the same place, sometimes simultaneously, sometimes at different times. The system is simply composed of a set of minimally designed horizontal surfaces easily put into a vertical wall, inviting the user to create his or her own desired space.

TEMPORARY HOUSING SYSTEM
This project proposes two systems: First, a minimal concrete foundation that is a landmark to which families can return after floodwaters recede. This addresses issues of land tenure and ease of rebuilding. Second, a woven system can be used flexibly as furniture, possession transport and protection, temporary shelter or part of a permanent shelter. This woven system can be constructed at different scales for different uses and its technique is grounded in the local Pakistani means of making rope beds, known as “charpoy”.

In 2010, Pakistan was devastated by flooding in its agricultural Indus valley. Nearly 20 million people were affected, and many were displaced from their homes for months at a time. Many of the families affected lost all their accumulated wealth because their homes, possessions and crops were destroyed by the rising waters.
02
The charpoy rope bed is a piece of furniture that is owned by many families in the parts of Punjab and Sindh provinces. Charpoy are used as a surface for sleeping, eating, and gathering, and are made using few resources. To transform the charpoy into something more broadly functional, I removed the legs, made it square for ease of proliferation in multiple directions, and used the inherent tension in the diagonal weave to give 3d rigidity by introducing a doubly-curved surface. The curvature allows the modules to span longer distances and gives the surface strings more ability to take lateral and gravity loads when connected. The system can function at the scale of a piece of furniture or be used as a building component, enclosure or substrate. The module can be reconfigured using simple sticks or short bamboo pieces as attachment.

The system can function at the scale of a piece of furniture and be stored or used as a building component, enclosure or substrate during times where there are not floodwaters. When a flood comes, the module can be reconfigured using simple sticks or short bamboo pieces as attachment. It can be waterproofed through secondary and tertiary weavings and used as temporary shelter when configured differently. The System can be deployed at multiple scales and in different numbers to give it a maximum flexibility of configurations and uses. At the small scale it can be used to transport water, filter water and dry clothes. It can also be used as a small bed or to transport smaller posessions. At a larger scale, 2 meters on each side, a module of 3 pieces can be configured as a float, a storage unit, or different one-person shelters. When combined with other modules it can be used to shelter more people, such as a family. The possibilities for aggregation are only limited by the availability of people in the family to carry these light structures.

The module, at any scale, can be clad to create temporary shelter and structure. In addition, the clad module or unclad surface can serve as a substrate for other, more permanent, materials such as mud, straw, waterproof fabrics or even concrete. In this way, the system is exible in its material identity and its outward expression. It can be personalized so that any settlement built using the system does not appear uniform or generic. 01

PROJECTS BUILDINGS DESIGNED IN RELATION TO THEIR CONTEXT
URBAN PERFORMING ARTS CENTER

BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS HARVARD GRADUATE SCHOOL OF DESIGN CRITIC / FLORIAN IDENBURG FALL 2010 / 10 WEEKS
02
The proposed project is a new performing arts center for Dance, Music and Drama in Boston’s North End. I question the need for a traditional performing arts center - the cultural climate in Boston is more dynamic in smaller, dispersed community arts organizations. Therefore, the building was conceived as a collection of smaller, independent entities.
03
A competing consideration was the waterfront site, which seems to require a more dramatic statement that would add to the skyline. In order to achieve this while maintaining the fractured, individuated community reading from up-close, the building’s organization takes advantage of the idea that we can perceive an organized collection of parts as a whole from afar. The building negotiates this dual identity through structural and material choices that can have different readings at different distances. The collection of different yet specific facilities for a variety of types of performing arts functions both as a community of individual parts and, at the scale of the city, as a unified building.

In order to include multiple discrete programmatic entities in a single building, the adjacencies must be carefully calibrated to ensure that the backstage and kitchen have access to the loading dock, the theaters have adequate lobby space and the school has an independent entrance off the street or lobby. The negotiation of the adjacencies and the response to the site’s orientation with respect to the water, street and park fronts drove the placement of the program within the building.

The interior experience of the Performing Arts Center is dual in nature. The interiors of the program volumes are self-contained and whole. The interstitial spaces, however, are dynamic and expand and contract based on the contingent volumes that create them.

INFILL HOUSES
CLADDING
SOMERVILLE, MASSACHUSETTS HARVARD GRADUATE SCHOOL OF DESIGN CRITIC / ELIZABETH WHITTAKER FALL 2009 / 2 WEEKS The 7’-6”-wide gap between two existing houses in Somerville, MA is the given site for an architectural intervention. The program of an artist’s live-work space and gallery is accommodated in this sliver of space. The traditional relationship of public and private space in the abutting homes is inverted in the intervention. The private space has more interior subdivision and heavier materials, and therefore has greater compressive structural capacity. The public space, normally on the ground floor, is more open and fluid, and therefore can be hung off a structural frame using lighter tension members.

LADAKH VISITORS CENTER
01
SHEY, LADAKH, INDIA BASIC INITIATIVE TEAM PROJECT WITH 35 OTHER STUDENTS SUMMER 2010 / 4 WEEKS In July 2010, I traveled with a group of architecture students to Leh, a city in Northern India (Ladakh region) near the Tibetan border. There, we worked with the students and faculty at the Druk White Lotus School to design a new visitors center for the campus. The campus and its existing buildings were designed by ARUP in 1998-2002 as a triple-net-zero energy project. The school opened in 2002, and since then has educated K-8 students, some of whom live on campus. The Ladakh region is very remote and has limited resources. Additionally, Leh and the school are located at 12,000 feet above sea level and the region’s harsh climate includes winter temperatures of -30˚ F and an average of less than 3 inches of rain annually. These factors influenced our design, which relied heavily on traditional Ladakhi building techniques and the use of local materials. The visitor’s center is oriented on the existing axis of the campus, which orients heavy walls toward the North to combat the harsh winter climate.

We broke up the massing of the building by introducing a break in the roof height, a design move that necessitated the use of heavy pine timber from Kashmir; most of the locally available timber is smaller poplar and willow. The lack of local wood and the need for greater insulation also prompted our decision to use traditional mud-brick construction, which is then stabilized by a poured-in-place concrete ring beam. The stabilizing reinforced concrete is necessary because Leh is in a Level 5 (highest) seismic risk zone. Ultimately the design was constrained by the availability of local materials, but we were able to most directly control the ways in which light entered the space. By introducing a wash window and wall on the Southwest corner and four skylights in the roof, we achieved a diffuse lighting condition that is ideal for the space’s gallery function. We also designed and fabricated a wooden built-in shelving unit that serves as storage for employee valuables and for the teaservice equipment integral to the Ladakhi customs of hospitality.

The split in the roof level is enabled by a pine girder that spans the short dimension of the building. I was part of the team that researched traditional Ladakhi carvings and subsequently carved a vernacular design into the pine beam. 01 02 03 04

The diffuse interior lighting was primarily achieved through skylights. The skylights had to be fabricated and placed at the level of the insulating mud and grass in the roof. They were then covered with recycled acrylic sheets.

BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS HARVARD GRADUATE SCHOOL OF DESIGN CRITIC / CAMERON WU SPRING 2010 / 2 WEEKS This project was a preparatory exercise for the design of a rare books library. The brief called for the organization, via module, of a system of 11 carrels, 10,000 linear feet of books and systems of circulation. My response was an inversion of the typical relationship between carrel and facade, and an examination of the consequences of this reconfiguration. The embrasures connecting facade to carrel are for the lighting and privacy of the carrel and are a sign on both interior and exterior of the varying sizes of the carrel spaces. The books are conceived of as a thickened poché.

Given the paradigmatic spatial arrangements of the Jordan Curve and the Klein Bottle, I created an abstract space that is defined by a singular, continuous mobius surface. The surface is enclosed at certain points to create a loosely defined interior, and becomes tangent to a designed landscape to enable entry and exit.

TRANSIT HUB
QUEENS, NEW YORK HARVARD GRADUATE SCHOOL OF DESIGN CRITIC / CARLES MURO SPRING 2011 / 3 WEEKS
Given codes derived from an earlier group design, I propsed this train station as a neighborhood center and a transit hub serving the LIRR and MTA 7 Trains. The Station acts as porous ďŹ lter in the east-west direction, allowing for multiple crossing points and gathering points along its length. It stitches the site together by asserting its presence as a continuous seam between the two neighborhoods.

At the mezzanine level, the station acts as a bridge, providing multiple continuous paths between Citi Field and USTC/Corona Park. These varying connections allow for flexible crowd accommodation and their different lengths and orientations dictate different speeds of movement. The megastructural form of the station is broken up by its structural system. By using a modular bay to organize space, the station becomes a rule-based system, deforming the structural frames with respect to the desired program (enclosure) and necessary structural support. The frames are thin and closely spaced at 6-foot intervals. Every 18’ there is a primary frame. The close, thin frames are deep to provide extra structural support and to create a visual difference. When viewed across (in the porous filter direction), the station is light and transparent. However, when viewed at an oblique angle, or when moving quickly through the station, the fins appear to merge and the station is read as a single, opaque figure.

BOOKSTORE DETAIL DRAWINGS
CAMBRIDGE, MA HARVARD GRADUATE SCHOOL OF DESIGN CRITIC / JONATHAN LEVI SPRING 2010 / 3 WEEKS The detailing of this small architectural bookstore is expresses the possibilities of custom wood detailing and the reconciliation between interior and exterior details. Each surface of the bookstore is thought of as a framed, two-dimensional surface through which windows are expressed as punched openings. The custom steel angles at the corners and around the window openings are framing devices for the structural plywood (interior) and shiplap siding (exterior). The details were fully worked out through precise 3d modeling to get a better feel for the ďŹ nished expression of a designed detail.
