Let's go on a journey — ­ to the ends of the earth and the other side of the street, as far as we need to go to get away from the familiar and routine. Good or bad, scary or wonderful, we need unruly places that defy expectations.

If we can't find them we'll create them.

RE-IMAGINING PUBLIC LIGHTING IN MIAMI Category: Project Size:

Public Planning/Lighting Design City Scale

Medium: Description:

The universe that opens up with every rotation of the Earth is one that has captivated mankind from the very dawn of existence. Today, sadly, it is a birthright on the verge of extinction. Light pollution, however, is an issue that is well within our power to correct.

The goal of this thesis is two-fold: to propose a thought-provoking lighting concept for Miami-Dade County and at the same time challenge the existing routines, tacit procedures, and habitual perceptions on the value and quality of

lighting in the first place.

A liquid city is one where life moves fast, cash flows easily, and where people and places are always adapting. In Miami, where the nightlife is as vibrant as the endless sunshine, shouldn't lighting be an extension of the city's character and aspiration? Organized into 7 categories, the Liquid City Lighting Concept focuses as much on technology and management as it is does on design. So let us take a journey, into the future of urban lighting!

PART I - MAPPING INFORMAL SETTLEMENTS Category: Project Size:

Medium: Description:

Vernacularology is an upper level design studio that explores informal urbanism and architecture and its connection to vernacular design. The first part of the studio was all about documentation and mapping.

the city that faces out to the water.

Not only does it directly engage with important and protected ecosystems, but it also serves as the unofficial gateway to the whole country through the mouth of Colombia's most important river.

Our site, Las Flores, is an informal neighborhood in Barranquilla, Colombia.

Located at the northernmost tip of the city and sandwiched between the Cienaga de Mallorquin Lagoon and the Magdalena River, it is the only neighborhood in

Our mapping efforts included on-site surveying, which was then converted into GIS data, and on-site drone photography to see into parts of the neighborhood hidden from view or too dangerous to access.

PART II - Landscape Intervention Category: Project Size:

Public/Institutional/Landscape 200 acres

Medium: Description:

After documenting and analyzing the biggest challenges facing Las Flores, we were asked to propose a project that would serve as a positive catalyst for the community.

Believing that the neighborhood is developing succesfully over time, our main goal was to re-connect it to the rest of the city and ensure it survives the completion of the Port.

The biggest threat to Las Flores is the construction of a new Super Port just north of the neighborhood and two new highways that will link this port to the outer ring connector of Barranquilla.

These highways would cut right through protected mangrove.

Our idea was to create an ecological park that works with the highway infrastructure and that encourages residents from Las Flores and the wider city to engage together with the beautiful natural environment that the city has too often ignored in its growth.

DESIGNING FOR A SELF-SUFFICIENT CITY Category: Project Size:

Agricultural/Urban 9 acres

Medium: Description:

Taught by the former chief architect of Barcelona, Vicente Guallart, this upper level studio was all about what future cities will look like. Breaking down and studying the city by its unique systems, this class was equal parts data collection, planning, and design.

Part of this studio included a visit to Barcelona to attend the 2015 Smart City Expo, collaborate with graduate students at IAAC, and visit the Valldaura Labs where students and professionals are testing the boundaries of digital fa-

brication and self-sufficient design.

Working with the developers of Miami's Design District, our task was to rethink this neighborhood as a self-sufficient district. Teams of two tackled different components of urban design including energy, mobility, agriculture, environment, social interaction, waste, and manufacturing.

Ariella and I developed a plan to ensure that 100% of all the vegetables consumed at restaurants in the district could be grown on site.

LONG SPAN STRUCTURE Category: Project Size:

Commercial 207,000 sq. ft.

Medium: Description:

Inspired by Erwin Hauer's sunshade designs, the dramatic form of the Innovation Center embodies the weaving of resources, ideas, and disciplines that nurtures true innovation.

Our first step was to scale up Hauer's design and adjust for program. Then, using a soap bubble technique to find a minimal surface, we achieved the final hyperbolic paraboloid form of the roof.

The central cross-shaped building houses the incubators, sheltered beneath the soaring 350 ft. wingspan of the roof. With its crisscrossing pathways and stairs, bustling cafe, and diamond skylights, the atrium is a piazza of the future, encouraging serendipitous encounters for all.

The structure combines a pre-fabricated post-tensioned perimeter with steel armature and poured-in-place concrete filling in the center. Loads are transfered to the outer perimeter and down the 8 concrete egress cores and 12 intermediate columns.
