SORA _ RESEARCH INSTITUTE Sora Research Institute is a research laboratory and showroom for the Honda Air, a sports car powered on compressed air. Working as a team of three, we designed the showroom based on the idea of a protracted and inward viewing experience of the cars on display: because we are exhibiting new technologies and theoretical applications in cars, we decided to show the entirety of the cars by “exploding” them and scattering their component parts throughout the expansive showroom. This disassembly is then carried through the architecture formally, programatically, and materialistically in multiple ways: Formally, the enclosure is separated from the structure to reveal connections, mezzanines create unique viewing opportunities, etc. Programatically, the showroom spaces are interrupted by offices, information spaces, cafe space, etc. Materialistically, changes in material on the showroom surfaces allow cars and their parts to be viewed from below, the facade “decomposes” as it moves from opaque to transparent, etc. In addition to the showroom space, there is a space on the ground floor where active research is undertaken and new concept cars (which will eventually make their way to the showroom above) are being assembled and constructed. This idea of additive construction and continuity is expressed in the spaces of the building, since they are all linked via numerous ramps.

STRUCTURAL STRATEGIES : VOIDED BIAXIAL SLAB Voided biaxial slabs are created with the same capabilities as a solid flat slab, but with about 35% less weight due to the elimination of superfluous concrete. The slab can span up to 50% longer distances than traditional slabs. Seismic Considerations In general, the impact of seismic forces imposed on a building are proportional to the horizontally accelerated mass, which is then absorbed by the vertical structure. The biaxial slab has a significantly reduced weight and therefore these forces will be reduced. Construction The bottom layer of a “bubble-lattice” unit is furnished with a layer of pre-cast concrete which replaces the horizontal portion of the formwork on the building site. Concrete is poured in place to cover the spheres. Slab Parameters Thickness Ball Diameter Span Cantilever

GOWANUS _ MICRO-APARTMENTS This housing complex on the Gowanus Canal addresses Mayor Bloomberg’s initiative to provide housing for the millions of New York City residents who live alone, while also respecting the industrial neighborhood of Carroll Gardens and the Gowanus Canal area. 170 micro-units of 300 square feet each are situated above 20,000 square feet of manufacturing & retail space. The program for the housing portion of this building emphasizes the importance of the communal spaces in a project of this nature. Since the residents have such limited apartment space, the varied communal spaces provide extensions of these small apartments and locations for residents to interact with their neighbors and apartment community. The heart of this project lies within this communal circulation path, rather than a typical project which emphasizes the apartment itself. The communal spaces form vertical and horizontal paths through the building, spanning to connect the two apartment towers. Located throughout this path are industrial kitchens, lounges, laundry rooms, a fitness center, and a library. There are also two vegetated roofs, which allow these communal spaces to expand out onto landscaped patios.

READING AREA CAFE
COMMUNAL BRIDGE A major element of this apartment complex is the communal bridge that connects the two housing towers. This bridge contains a two-story library where residents can gather in various settings: a cafe, multiple scales of seating for work or lounging, a reading area, and a business center above the cafe. Channel glass comprises the main glazing material for this and other communal spaces, allowing for natural, diffuse lighting. As seen on the opposite page, there are also portions of transparent glass and balconies that cut into the communal spaces. This transparent glazing is located towards the corners of each communal space, providing optimal views along the canal and the promenade. The translucency of these communal spaces displays the vibrancy and life of the building, whereas the smaller scaled repetition of the units become neutral pieces that are set adjacent to the communal spaces.

FLUX _ SCIENCE + ART MUSEUM Brooklyn / Waterfront The fluctuating conditions of Brooklyn’s waterfront are considered across time: looking to past edge iterations, current fluctuations of the daily tide, and future considerations of sea level rise. The landscape acts as a litmus test to indicate the constantly changing relationship between water level and occupiable landscape. Science / Art Within the museum, exhibits of both science and art are featured alongside each other, displaying the fluctuating nature between each discipline; and the landscape becomes an external, living exhibit, displaying ideas of from within the museum to both DUMBO and Manhattan.

The placement of the museum on this large waterfront site is intended to minimize impacts of sea level rise on a daily and long term basis. The landscape underneath the building utilizes a variety of natural wetland and marsh elements to both mitigate water level rise and to display to site visitors the daily tidal fluctuations. The East River is technically a tidal strait, and experiences two high tides and two low tides daily, fluctuating by up to 6ft daily. There are multiple pedestrian and bike paths throughout the site, each constantly varying in its proximity to the rivers surface. Therefore, during different points during the day, a visitor’s relationship to the water varies, and can be disrupted by the rising waters.

SLIP _ PECK SLIP ELEMENTARY The Center of Multisensory Emergent Teaching is an elementary school for grades K-5 that incorporates a holistic, inquiry-based curriculum. This comprehensive curriculum is coupled with an engaging, discovery-filled building to develop a sense of wonder and life-long learning in these young children. Misregistration and slipping of planes provides for varied scales of spaces within each classroom and the school, providing activity zones within these spaces. Additionally, unique opportunities for fenestration are revealed at varying scales and unexpected places, providing views to the neighborhood for the children to discover as they explore their school. Transparency becomes an additional component, with varying degrees of opacity: solid, semi-transparent, and transparent. This allows for ample lighting, with controlled views to the exterior. The determination of materiality reinforces the overall fenestration strategy, providing for engaging, child-scaled apertures.

TORSIONAL SPINE _ EAST RIVER PARK INTERVENTION This intervention on the urban landscape emerged from ideas and material techniques discovered in the initial EVA foam material studies, which were then adapted to site forces and programmatic needs to become this open-air kayak rental, cafe, and public locker room structure. The intent of this project was to merge and diffuse various aspects of the site into each other: the structure pushes into the river while the river pulls back into the structure; the structure stretches itself towards the city; the existing building on the site forces the structure to curve around the building, while pieces of the structure begin to grow back onto the building. Formally, a linear structure discovered in the previous material studies is pushed and pulled by these site forces, while it simultaneously twists along its spine. This creates a suspended canopy open towards the river on the northern end of the structure, and on the southern end it rotates to become open towards the park.

LINEAR ARRAYS _ EVA Foam Material Studies EVA foam material studies resulting from a challenge to produce five 5� x 30� models of modular change and stripped surfaces. Each module shows a transition from absolute flatness to absolute volume through the construction of strips that are folded to converge and diverge in multiple ways. The goal of this project was to investigate the properties of EVA foam, structural or otherwise. A subsequent iteration of this project resulted in a larger material study. The goal of this second iteration was to expand upon a strategy previously developed and see how it can be applied to a growing scale, as well as how it can start adapting to external and internal forces present in the system.

URBAN STUDIO 02 _ MY SISTER SUSAN’S HOUSE Urban Studio 02 : My Sister Susan’s House is the second designbuild installment from the Interior Architecture department at The University of North Carolina at Greensboro. This community oriented design-build effort began in December 2008 and culminated in March 2010 with a 4500 square foot home for five teenage mothers and their children. The self-funded endeavor was design-built by UNCG students, as well as students from carpentry program at Guilford Technical Community College, and directed by Urban Studio’s director, Robert Charest. A cutting edge program for teenage mother housing was developed jointly by Youth Focus, the Departments of Social Work, Human Development, Family Studies & Nutrition, and Communication Sciences and Disorders at UNCG, as well as UNCG’s Child and Family Research Network.

The 4500 square foot home contains a large living and dining area for the young mothers, as well as office space, laundry, and a breezeway lounge. MECH. 1
There are two conditions of suits depending on a mothers’ situation: three suits for mothers with one infant, and two suits for mothers with an infant and another older child. This allows the home to accommodate the needs of many mothers who qualify for the program.

The smaller extension towards the back of the home is a larger suite for the House Mother, a supervisor for the teenagers to ensure they are safe and abiding by program rules. She has her own living and dining space to provide both herself and the mothers with a level of independence. BEDROOM

My role within this project varied through the construction process: Studio Member, Spring 2009: Instrumental member of a 17-student design studio for Phase One of My Sister Susan’s House, from initial wall construction with insulated concrete forms through drying the structure in. Intern, Summer 2009: Project team leader for 15+ students for completion of Phase Two, from interior wall framing, electrical wiring, and beginning interior details, as well as exterior landscaping. LEED Accredited Professional, Fall 2009 - Spring 2011: Manager of LEED documentation and submittal. Through this extensive project, I learned an invaluable amount of information about the way buildings are constructed. This is of course very beneficial to me in my architectural studies in terms of construction details as well as sustainable design; however the most important thing I took away from this experience is the aspect of architecture as a force for social responsibility. It was great to be an interiors program and actually constructing a building; but it was even greater to know that we were building a home for troubled young mothers who need a place to transition themselves and their families to better futures.
