The development of the cinema design lead me to rethink the cinematic experience in the 21st century; My design focuses into reviving the event and ritual that once the cinemas were. This was achieved by creating an atmosphere where the movie goers can socialize and further expand their cinematic experience. The way this social gathering space is created so as to revive the ritual and cult of older classics is through a Mรถbius Strip. The Mรถbius Strip symbolizes that the tradition of cinemas will remain ongoing forever. The building would involve the society and the individuals into the whole experience when moving along the strip. This would be a scenario in which all the visitors will be part of the event itself. In this way, the cinema center is to re-conceive the cinematic experience through flexible and performative spaces so as to create a whole event and spectacle.

vertical CIRCULATION
The solar path, the green axes and the view towards the river are the forces that affected the form of the building. These forces allowed sustainable design in order to reduce the Heat Island Effect. The building has roof/balcony gardens for rainfall storing; furthermore, it maximizes the north sunlight and natural ventilation inside the building.

Community film-making requires producing films with, for and about people of all backgrounds. This encourages the interaction with film-lovers/producers and artists. Moreover, there is a vertical venue where the public can go throughout the building reaching the amphitheater at the top. This creates a movement of people interacting in the space making everyone part of the spectacle of filmmaking.

The main forces driving this project are the two green garden axes that meet on the site. This creates a public outdoor and double height space that links the public green spaces. Furthermore, the building cantilevers out. shielding the outdoor space which allows circulation through the pedestrian green axes that merges the community.

This is a design charette that is based on precedent studies. The goal is to design a gathering to house a small collection of paintings by a contemporary artist. This design is a reflection of Peter Zumthor’s architecture. Thus, it reflects the design and presentation sensibility of the architect. The use of his techniques in materiality and experience of the space are employed. Natural and artificial light also influenced my design on program, the structural system, and the building envelop.

The Fire Station is the first architectural project in Erewhon, Dallas. My proposal is to locate it in the center of the town to maintain public the city properties; in this manner, it becomes a public garden for community integration.
iteration01
The goal is to design architecture that is timeless and forward, thinking civic minded, as well as aesthetically arresting and experientially rich; moreover, it is pleasurable and sustainable. Thus, I did a life cycle analysis on the exterior materials in order to choose the best two iterations for sustainability.

designed and built a sustainable home for the Hargrove family. The design of the home focuses on passive strategies (daylighting, shading, and natural ventilation) while also incorporating solar panels to reduce energy use and operating cost of the home. Materials in the home have been selected based upon life-cycle cost analysis and maintenance over the life of the home. Through the building of this home, promoted sustainable design while also raising the standard for low-income housing in Ruston.

The choosen site enhances the concept of the building. Its location on the Mississippi River provides many opportunities. It allows the visitors of the “Cultural Center and Museum of the Deep South� to interact and experience the river. The experience of the deep south would be increased in this site since the Mississippi River is the main theme and has a rich background in southern life. In addition, the location of the site is central to public access for tourists and residents.

The forces that shape the “Flow of Water Museum� such as pedestrian, vehicular circulation, and the river flow resemble the historical forces that have shaped the Deep South including wars, traditions, pride, immigrants, etc. The arrangement of the program is shaped by the relationship between the physical and social forces, allowing the interface between the outdoor and indoor spaces. These, result in spaces in which the circulation of people is the stream that shapes the museum. Nature develops in an open space exposed to the city; this unites the surrounding area instead of containing it within the building. The circulation has smooth transition spaces allowing purity by creating an atrium that goes through the entire building. The flow of people has an eroding effect on the program similar to the erosion by the river; the permanent exhibits flow within the building, transported to different galleries to create a richer environment.
