"The Following Selected Projects were ways to approach Given Problems . These Show the Growth of my problem Solving Skills, Particularly this spawned from my "laziness". This inspired myself to work smarter not harder especially in the field of solving design problems. The philosophy has guieded me through most of my school career so far. As a result of it, the projects that i worked ranges from intensive 3d modeled to simple forms. Another problem solving method was using Logical ways of solving problem in a design heavy School Career, this came to fruition when i was presented an urban planning project of the san fernando valley to collect storm water and water drainage( More details at request). The project gave me a chance to lead a small group to do research and presented me a chance practice my team management skills. On top of that the project was very interesting in the way that i was solving a giant puzzle board. And i Personally would love to keep pursuing my career in this logic based manner in my career path."

The Project aimed for a different approach in designing spaces first and using Monasteries as a concept development stage. Monasteries in general have a particular mood and atmosphere to it in terms of spatial experiences. These include Lighting, sound, Volume of Space and percptions. The Primary design guideline was to capture the essential components that makes up the quality of space found within monasteries through out the world without all the religious references. The Project was built for a comunnity of 35 people that lives in a self sustaining building complex that includes: Dorms Offices, Landscape Plan WorkshopsSteam Room Classrooms Experiential Space

Structure The Structure was taken from the Taichung Opera House in Taiwan, by Toyo Ito. Our Massing is very similar to this project, With his being a sprayed concrete with reinforced Steel Skelton and as well as rebar. The idea was to take the Steel Skeleton and replace the Concrete and rebars with Steel Panels.

Line is currently expanding at the Moment from Culver City all the way to Santa Monica Near the pier. The idea is that this station brings a new mode of transportationto a rather underrated tourist city. Though SantaMonica's main tourist source is from people visitingLos Angeles Itself, Santa Monica is still capableof sustaining a self-Tourist Driven Economy, and it certainly has the potential to rival costal citiessuch as Sydney in terms of Tourist both International and domestic revenue. The project is to focus heavily on structure to create a Multi-site, Multi Purpose Conference/Residential/Trainstation Hub.

Santa Monica’s Expo Line Terminus, will conclude construction in the next decade. Once complete, the expo line will connect santa monica and downtown. The idea is to create an iconic central hub to represent the terminus, and accomadate future traffic.

International visitors account for more than 57% of tourists in Santa Monica In 2012, and accounts for more than 67% of total spending. remaining 43% domestic tourist mainly comes from within california which accounts for 28% total tourists

THe Structural Ambition was to test steel to it’s possible limits. With most of the building hold it self up with the suport of 4 traditional steel towers. The Exoskeleton steel would act as a secondary structure and also lateral support for all the internal floor plates. The skin would be a glass, which is custom made. The Skin would change its opacity depending on the program.

X.TRA.IN.Z Birds Nest Description The Expo Line Station of Culver City is currently under expansion, and it will be one of the main vital stations in the future when the expo-line extends to santa monica. The project was to create a Kiosk like structure system to inform travelers of and provide a mini transport hub zone of around 3000 Sqaure Feet. 8

To start out different types of concept models were made to see how it would fit around the train station platform. the weaving concept was chosen in that it can pertain to a primary structure(in this case a typical triangle truss system) whilst the weaving itself can become a secondary and triceary system. as well as the weaving becoming the facade of the transport hub.

Catch The Wind Description

e ag or St

Whitnall highway in during the mid 20th century was planned to be one of the main connecting arteries between san fernando valley and Downtown Los Angeles, with it being abnadoned, it has become an anomaly within certain sections of the had-been highway. The project was to implement a housing masterplan dividing the part of the highway into parcels and for individual housing projects.

The housing along the highway lacked community space. Using the idea from the beirut towers a terrace tower housing was created in response to the current housing disadvantages. tower Housing generally saves a lot of space by stacking floor plates, in addition to that advantage, floor plates were extruded in and out to create more space for either out door use or community space within the building. Sequence 20 0 Further taking theFT idea of redistributing resources from the site to its residence, An External HVAC system was implemented on to the tower to redistribute wind flow back into the tower to dilute air congestion within the building.

Century City Mall Mixed Used Building Description Century City Mall is one of the citites that has its pedigree driven by location, due to its proximity to LAX, Downtown Los Angeles and Beverly Hills.. The Project is to change the Wells Fargo Building into a Multipurpose Building with an Atrium Throughout.

Precedents

The Exisiting Precedent is the Wells Fargo Building. It is originally used as an Office. To accomadate and create potential commerce for the local area, Building would be reappropriated into Hotel, Office and retail Levels

B A

Construction and Inspiration

The Atrium was driven by a nature of Parasitical vine structure, which follows the basic rules of entering the external, chaging the core and exiting out. The form of the atrium. A

Century City Mall Site Plan

Further Developemnts

The Building also introduces a brand new Retail This Retail parking system does not need Retail system. human control, the system practically Storage parks the car itself. The Idea is to create a SpaRetail tialexperience of the atrium, to be seen circulation crossing from all direction. Mainly cars can be seen parking above theRetail retail as the guests sees it while riding the elevator. The focus isn't too much on the program itself but more on the Atrium Atrium

Most of the time The bacteria produced by the White Blood Cells don’t usually suceed, therefore White Blood Cells deviate the existing bacteria they produce to combat the new invading Bacteria. Doing this not only destroys the new bacteria, but White Blood Cells also improve their adaptation on the imune system..

Most of the time The bacteria produced by the White Blood Cells don’t usually suceed, therefore White Blood Cells deviate the existing bacteria they produce to combat the new invading Bacteria. Doing this not only destroys the new bacteria, but White Blood Cells also improve their adaptation on the imune system..

Bertula Parasitus Description

We can't simply work construct buildings without first understanding the material it was made from. for this project our group has chosen study the combined forces of tension and compression, we then come up with a shape that bears both of the forces within. We then experiment with different materials to see which has the best flexibility, materials such as acryllic, paper, wood etc... along with the fact that it could be scaled up and still stand on its on. Wood was the best contneder.

Paradigms

Our Next step was to create a unit to aggregate system with our created module. scaling the shape itself was easy, but the problem lies within in how big can it go, and how thick the wood should be before it snaps or becomes to wobbly to stand on its own. We choose Birchwood since it has uses the woods pattern property, with crisscrossing patterns to provide more stength. Scaling was the most difficult process, since we needed to develop a system that doesnt that the thickness doesnt become too strong that ir won't bend at all or too thin that it is too wobbly. We then connect all of the modules in a transtionfrom biggest on the bottom to the smallest on the terial Description top, while adapting the structure to our site, the l Limitation h Plywood PCC library rotunda, The structure solely relies on the pull and push on the individual modules, due the triangular nature of the modules, the forces are spread out evenly htrough out and since triangle being one of the strongest shape

Material Limitation

Plywood is a manufactured wood panel made from thin sheets of wood veneer. It is one of the most widely used wood products. It is flexible, inexpensive, workable, re-usable, and can usually be locally manufactured. Plywood is used instead of plain wood because of its resistance to cracking, shrinkage, splitting, and twisting/warping, and its general high degree of strength.

Plan

Plywood layers (called veneers) are glued together with adjacent plies having their grain at right angles to each other. Cross-graining has several important benefits: it reduces the tendency of wood to split when nailed at the edges, it reduces expansion and shrinkage equating to improved dimensional stability, and it makes the strength of the panel consistent across both directions. There are usually an odd number of plies so that the sheet is balanced—this reduces warping. Because of the way plywood is bonded (with grains running against one another and with an odd number of composite parts) it is very hard to bend it perpendicular to the grain direction.

The Semester long research class had one simple goal. Gather Geographic and demographic information of the San Fernando Landscpe in Souther California ( A rough 200 square mile Area) and impriove on the drought that has been going on in California for quite a while. THe idea was to create modules (BMP, best management Practice) among the street scapes of this area and apply to them appropriately to their pertaining location in accordance to the research made in ARCGIS and City Engine.
