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.

FABRIC

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

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

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.

PRAYER SPACE

Main Building:

Media: SketchUp, Photoshop

Exterior View

A place of refuge and respite for multiple religions within a community to experience nature and have a safe place for silent prayer. Inspiration for the undulating walls came from a hike I took near the site.

Cactus Pavilion

Media: SketchUp, Photoshop

Interior Design Concept.

Taking influence from the skeleton of a saguaro cactus this structure provides self shading, while allowing the occupant to still see out into nature as they might take temporary refuge while on a hike, This Pavilion can be customizable by increasing or decreasing the number of ribs as each bench is built into its structure of this pavilion. Multiple entrances and exits can be used to increase safety as needed.

MASTER SUITE & KITCHEN

Media: SketchUp, Shader-light, Photoshop

Interior Design Concept.

A space that was to small and congested now feels open and connected as the space flows between three different functions. Entertaining, cooking and dinning cal all feel like individual spaces while still allowing for all users to feel connected.

Kitchen and dining space were once the back patio. Have been given a new purpose and. Matching floors throughout the space and keeping a warm and neutral palette to allow for growth and a relaxed environment.

New-age Tattoo Parlor: Interior

2017

Media: SketchUp, Photoshop Exterior / Interior Design Concept

I wanted to challenge the perception of a tattoo parlor seen as a place of rebellion but rather a stage; the concept of a stage is supported by the large windows that allows the phases of the art to be on display as a live “portfolio”. The material pallet juxtaposes the permanency of a tattoo by the use of large windows, open floor plan and airy and light finishes.

Digital portfolios are showcased on the walls that transitions and show off the artist best work. While the front transaction counter acts as a spot for artist and clients to work together to design and find inspiration on a digital work surface.

Interior Design Concept

Exploring a space plan for a modular dwelling built form a shipping container. This space allows for the occupant to enjoy the connection to the outdoors while still offering a place to work, relax and entertain. This 8’x20’ shipping container also utilizes solar panels and has vertical gardens on its exterior to reduce heat from the outdoors to the building.
