Case Study: Sukkah


A Sukkah is a temporary dwelling created for a week-long Jewish festival called Sukkot. My group and I wanted to create a space that gives shelter but also connects people to the outdoor elements. We used natural material (lumber) and used a stacking method to create open spaces. We filled in certain areas with smaller pieces of lumber to create density and came up with a pattern to create movement. We realized that even though we are using a durable material, we still created the feelings of movement and impermanence.




Diagramming Ordering Principles


This case study was to diagram any ordering principle that I saw within these pictures of various corporate offices.

First, I traced the picture into a simplified version. Then I created diagrams showing the ordering principle. Above are close-ups of the tracing and diagram of The Disney Store Headquarters.

Case Study: Sungevity Office


My objective was to design a new office space for Sungevity, a solar company in Oakland. Although this project was fictitious, we had to use the existing parameters of Sungevity’s office space. My idea was to take Sungevity’s positive, fun and energizing spirit and instill that throughout the space. I focused on the circulation of foot traffic; designing a floor plan that has a balance of public and private; break-out areas for employees to energize and a warm and inviting aesthetic inspired by the mid-century modern movement.
