Front Section Showing Interior Functions
Media: SketchUp, Photoshop
Interior Design Concept
Creating a new downtown location for this non profit multi purposed space in Downtown Phoenix Arizona. Retail, education, events, office, and studio spaces are just a few of the functions this space allows. Being located in a urban area full of art and culture this site begins to connect the community full of art and influence to the landscape ant then to the spaces and people within the building.

Defining the spaces and programing the main functions that each space needs to perform allowed for the organization and architectural play of forms. Amphitheater seating was a way to better connect the community to the building by keeping it open and an alternative entrance to the event spaces and office space.
Building ISO FABRIC
Media: SketchUp, Photoshop
Exterior Design Concept.
Weaving the building and landscape into one another allowed for a better flow of the site and invites the community to engage and interact. Through the out door landscape where first Friday vendors can be located. To the amphitheater seating located in the center of the building. FABRIC can become a place for community and growth.
Interior Lobby

Interior Design Concept
Maine lobby to help direct and facilitate visitors and guest was necessary with a multi story building that facilitates as many functions and accommodation to its community.

Interior Design Concept
Runway are an important function of FABRIC as thy allow for the new designers to express and showcase the clothing that is created in house. This runway space is also an additional review stream for the non profit as it rents it our to the community when its not being used as event space.

Puerto Rico Site Analysis
Media: SketchUp, Photoshop, Illustrator Site Analysis Diagrams
Our team of three analyzed the site of an abandoned primary school within the community of San Juan on the island of Puerto Rico. We took a week long trip to observe the cutler and hear the stories of people who live there. Our task was to bring back life to the site and provide a location for the community to congregate and engage with one another.
Part of my contribution was to create the site analysis diagrams as well as the phasing diagrams and final perspective renderings of the building.
Kinetic Community Building
North Exterior Perspective
Inspired by the ocean across the street. This concept was to drape the structure with small panels that when the wind blows, the facade acts as a kinetic sculpture and a sours for generating energy through wind power. Small square flaps are moved back and forth by the passing breeze.
What I value about this project is how our team worked together and produced something we are all proud of within only a few months of meeting each-other.
Our team collaborated on the space planing

Final Concept

Media: SketchUp
Spacial Diagram
A valley between two mountains became my inspiration. Two buildings are connected on the site by the central staircase that runs between them. A staircase and ramp system offers areas or respite or the opportunity for outdoor prayer and meditation.
