PHILIP JOHNSON ESTATE: ARTIST RESIDENCE & VISITOR CENTER New York, New York. New Canaan, Connecticut.
Two buildings were realized for this project;
an on-site artist residence on the Glass House estate in New Canaan, and a visitor center adjacent to Philip Johnsons Rockefeller Guest House in New York.
The visitor center in New York is a starting
point for tours of Philip Johnsons built work in New York City. A gallery and exhibition space commemorates Johnson’s architectural work, where tourists can wait for their guided tours to begin.
The directed circulation path leads guests
up to the second level to a small theater which shows documentary films. When the screen folds up, the theater frames the Rockefeller Guest house across East 52nd st. As in the Rockefeller Guest House, a frontback notion of privacy is kept intact with a reflective glass bridge dividing the public spaces in the front, and the private offices for the employees of the visitors center.
A thorough analysis of both the Glass House
and the Rockefeller Guest House preceded the design

process.
The artist residence is intended for a limited
stay by a practicing artist, and the working spaces are versatile enough to be functional for any of the arts: painting, music, dance, photography, etc.
Johnson’s Glass House utilizes slim black frame
elements: the four doors and window partitions as tools for viewing and framing the landscape. The plate glass disappears between the frames, only revealed through reflections and refractions of the landscape. The artist residence is in a direct relationship with the Glass House, and is referenced for tectonic arrangements. The optical qualities of glass was a primary interest in both the New York and New Canaan projects.
Privacy was an important consideration for
the artist residence since tours are frequently given of the estate. Opaque panels of bronze clearly delineate the private areas from the glazed zones.

THE POST-STANDARD NEWSPAPER HEADQUARTERS Downtown Syracuse, Clinton Square In collaboration with Dylan Forester
and
The newspaper industry is rapidly changing nearly
disappearing;
by
maximizing
the
transparency on the façade facing Clinton Square, we were able to strengthen the fading relationship between the people of Syracuse and its newspaper.
Charged with maximizing rentable square
footage for the existing concrete structured office building, the project aimed to enhance the working conditions for the employees by optimizing the circulation as well creating a lunch cafĂŠ and winter garden. Rentable commercial gallery space was added on the ground and first floors. Open meeting rooms were added to allow for greater transparency within the newspapers social hierarchy.
Passive and active solar design is utilized,
with the sawtooth roof optimized for the addition of solar panels. The winter garden and shading panels help drive soft reflected light deep into the floor plates, eliminating the need for artificial light during the day, and preventing harsh, direct sunlight.

MUSEUM OF THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT San Miniato, Tuscany, Italy
The museum and its grounds serve two
purposes. One, to reconnect the urban fabric of San Miniato and the countryside with a pedestrian friendly garden, and also a museum featuring local artists to celebrate this relationship. The effect (positive and negative) of human inhabitance on the landscape of San Miniato is clear, and the Museum of the Built Environment celebrates this.
Accessed primarily from the main street
Via Cesare Battisti, a slim bridge juts out of the front façade, providing spectacular views of the countryside. The solid façades are paired with fully glazed walls, alternating blocked and open views along the constructed circulation path.
Set upon a ridge of three hills in the Arno
river valley, San Miniato was a key defensive point from medieval times up until World War II. The constructed, folding garden “plates” serve to break down the existing medieval walls, connecting the city and its visitors to the countryside.
