001
APPROACH
Education is integrated along the Museum Experience, exposing the process of Lamb Spring
SOLUTION
The musuem’s orientation directs attention to the dig, + acts as an extension of the existing path. Community interaction is encouraged through social architectural gestures such as the collection corridor, which houses the archaeological findings of Lamb Spring.

M C B C BRIEF
The Museum of Contemporary Bicycle Culture, located between Wazee and Wynkoop lies in the heart of Downtown Denver along the Cherry Creek bike path - the main circulation artery across the city.
APPROACH
Cyclists and pedestrians alike immeadiately engage in the musem as they travel up the bike ramp under the musuem’s second story. Pockets of social space are dispersed over the site to offer a space to the community as well as create an additional social gallery.
SOLUTION
The museum is cladded in a wood louver sysytem which provides a layer of transparency, as well as a method to store bicycles outside and display the bicycles inside.

GROUND FLOOR
Driving south on Wazee, the louvers allow for a glimpse into the museum. Approaching the entrance the user can store their bicycle in the louver system + continue along the public corridor to the cafe. Adjacent to the cafe space is the bicycle shop where you can purchase, display, + maintenance bikes. The lobby hosts the entrance to the gallery spaces on the upper level as well as access to the community room + reading room. Further along the public corridor lies several sitting areas, the outdoor gallery, + entrance to administrative building.
SECOND FLOOR
Walking up the stairs past the lobby to the second floor, the museum user will find themselves upon the galleries. The ramp gallery cantilevers over the bike ramp and the structural glass floor reveals those on the bike ramp as display within the museum. The structural system that holds the louvers also holds shelves + displays. Before the user travels downstairs, they get a glimpse into the bicycle shop from the balcony overhead. Before leaving the gallery portion of the museum they pass through the bike shop and exit upon the public corridor.

F I L M A R C H IV E BRIEF
The UCLA Film Archive Building is located in the bustling heart of Los Angeles on the corner of Hollywood Boulevard and La Brea Avenue. The building would screen public films, serve as an archive for the past and present films of UCLA and provide a social gathering on the west end of the Hollywood walk of fame.
APPROACH
The Building serves as both a public front and a private research and archival facility. To meet the needs of both, circulation and space planning integral.
v
SOLUTION
Circulation throughout the building is appropriated as seating for public screenings, engaging the user and maximizing space planning efficiency. All of the building’s interior walls are utilized as storage for films.

MANIPULATION OF ROOF PLANE TO CREATE FURTHER URBAN VOIDS
The main entrance + pavement cafĂŠ are located along Hollywood Boulevard to draw in the large volume of traffic that occupy the boulevard. The walls between the protected and the unprotected space are appropriated as bookshelves for the library program. To move into the protected spaces, one must pass through a mass of books guarding the entrance.

GROUND FLOOR
From the south on Hollywood Boulevard the public patron enters under the dense concrete facade to arrive upon an urban void protected by the surrounding facades. A faculty entrance located along El Cerrito allows for faculty to enter the building more discretely, through an intimate passage.
SECOND FLOOR
Circulation up the steps of the outdoor theatre leads to an indoor theatre, event space, + outdoor bar area. The roof plane of the bar is pulled back to reveal the patron to another urban void.
029
The event space opens up onto an outdoor bar that is exposed to the Los Angeles sky. This void cuts through to the first floor to let natural light into the office spaces. This natural light foreshadows the protected voids throughout the building.

URBAN LOUNGER BRIEF
The Urban Lounger serves as a new definition of social enclosure between wall and bench.
APPROACH
This modulated system provides variation to suit the needs of any space. Based upon six different modeules, with varying seat heighth and depth, each section fits snug with the next. The vertical slats that define the lounger filter light, noise, and socai activities of those that occupy the area. The sections are joined together using two sizes of metal fasteners. The loungers can be fabricated, shipped, and assembled very quickly and effeciently.

HOZHO HOUSE BRIEF The Navajo Nation along with Deisgn Build Bluff provided the opportunity for twenty graduate student the chance to design and build an 800 sq.ft house in Bluff, UT.
APPROACH 039
Programmatically, the home is separated into public and private spaces. The home aims to provide a place to intimately retreat as well as spaces for family + celebration.
SOLUTION
The private boxes [bedroom + bathroom] are differentiated as separate volumes and clad with cedar in contrast to the clean white walls. Throughout the house concrete is consistently used as a horizontal application [the shallow frost protected slab serves also as the home’s concrete floor, concrete countertops in the kitchen, + concrete pavers in the patio], while cedar is utilized in a vertical manner [exterior shade screen + interior clad boxes]. The screen stemmed from the shade house and was focused on bringing transparency and a consistent quietness into the East and West Facades. Thin aluminum eyebrows adorn the home’s windows, casting deep shadows across the panes of glass.

HOZHO HOUSE [HO-ZJO] Hozho is a Navajo word described as peace, balance, and beauty. It can also be interpreted as In Beauty I walk and also It has become beauty again.
PATIO
Peace describes our clients, a soft-spoken Navajo couple, and the complimenting relationship between the house + the land Balance speaks of the relationship between the public + [cedar clad] private spaces within the home KITCHEN

NOOK
My primary role in the Hozho house was as CO-LEAD on the WALL TEAM with Amy Keil, specifying, coordinating, and creating framing plans for the SIP construction as well as traditional wood framing. I also worked heavily on the KITCHEN TEAM with Megan Garrett. I researched cabinet materials + finsihes, building mockups, and fabricating the shelves, cabinets, concrete cuntertops + all of the hardware required. Lastly, along with Erica Alfaro we designed and fabricated the ENTRY BENCH.

O L E A ST E R BRIEF
Oleaster combines the organic imperfections and warmth of a reclaimed Russian Olive Slab and the cool clean edge of steel tube as a place for S T I L L N E S S.
APPROACH
We, as human beings crave T O U C H. This bench is a reflection of this desire. The small notion of a backrest calls to suport a moment of rest, whilst the soft edges cradle one’s knees and drive tactile curiousity. The ribon of steel captures the eye and defines movement of the bench. The connections between the two contrasting materials reflect each’s individual properties. As the steel punctures the slab, the wood pulls inward toward the steel.
048
RESEARCH I was drawn to the ORGANIC IMPERFECTIONS of wood. The knots, insect decay, and physical damage tell the story of the wood, the love and pain it has endured. At TC WOODS I found a salvaged slab of Russian Olive slab, marked with a deep groove and years of age. It had a weight to it that many Russian Olives do not. The stong grain and weathered depression inspire stillness in the same way that a grandfather captivates young children with stories of the past. This is W I L D O L I V E.
049
050
ARTICULATION In contrast to the organic nature of wood, the base is composed of a simple and light frame of salvaged tube steel. As the steel base winds its way through the Russian Olive it becomes a notion of a back rest, encouraging a moment of rest and stillness. The continuous ribbon of steel punctures the wood in three locations: each a unique and celebrated joint.
