Architectural lighting: Lighting for an Office Building
Objective: Design the lighting component for NYC LGBT Youth Center while meeting the IESNA lighting requirements. Programs Used: AutoCAD, Photoshop, AGI32, and Rhino Apple Store
+ Located at Chelsea meatpacking district in Manhattan. + Main street is 9th Ave
Floor Plan
1st Floor
+ The lighting in the youth center functions not only to provide ample lighting but also to create a sense of unity within the architecture and community among people + This is achieved in 2 ways: Repetition of architectural form Transparent materials 2nd Floor 9th AVE

Light as a Functional Medium: Human Scale Installation Objective: Develop an understanding of what light can do using actual lighting hardware in a limited full-scale environment. Program used: AGI32, AutoCAD, and Photoshop + Location: 25E 13th Street New York, 3rd Floor + Goal is to direct students and guests through door 1 + Reason being the wall flushed against door 2 is often used as pin up space + Thus, circulation is a key part of the design + Challenge involved numerous existing competing lights that led the viewer in a particular path. + Solution was to create an opposing light source that caught viewer’s attention Door 1

Visual Effects of Lighting Objective: Explore light from a purely visual perspective, first through observation and then through communication and representation in both 2 and 3 dimensions. Exploration: Light can reveal or conceal the texture of a surface + The angle and intensity of light gives form to the edges of the texture, but the texture becomes concealed when light illuminates the surface uniformly + Both light and shadow play an integral part in revealing or concealing the texture of a surface

Collaboration with Paggy Chang, Lilian Lu, Genda Lin | Student Grant Proposal 2011
E-volve: Lighting Proposal for NYC Public Parks Mission: To foster the understanding of the design intersections between nature and technology and to support a heightened sense of responsibility for increasing the sustainability of built environments Objective: Propose a design for a self-sustaining playground that can generate its own power through human intervention Programs Used: Photoshop and Rhino + Grant proposal: Michael Kalil Endowment for Smart Design + Inspiration from PLANYC 2030, “dozen of high quality fields are rendered all but unusable after the sun sets.�

Daylight Study: Dream Spa Objective: design and built a model to better understand daylighting in an interior space Client: Spa treatment center + Used the heliodon to understand light distribution during different times of the year + Experimented with various window types such as clerestory, light shelves, and sky lights + Tested two kinds of window treatments: diffused and clear + The diffused material obliterates the hot spot and discomfort seen in the image of the clear clerestory + Experimented with daylighting during different times of day and orientation Diffused Clerestory
