The intent of this project was to work in parallel with Light House of Broward, a non profit facility for persons of visual imparment. The challenge is to design a new facilty tailored to the needs and requirements of such organization, utilzing a network mapping of materials to address the tactile qualities of a truly umbiased visual architecture. A core sensory hub triggers both a visual and non-visual porosity through two seperate systems: core departments (LHOB) and envelope of enclosures (cavities). Our thesis is manifested through the study of:

The project challenges the role of a library within a democratic society. structural stalactite and stalagmite elemtents intersect to create various infrastructures of social interaction and circulation among users. A veil of enclosure works in sync with a interior core to promote daylighitng strategies and to enhance urban conditons for pedestrian walkability and community awareness

The task for the competititon was to design a recreational stadium that is to be transformed into a residential housing complex (post event use). The focus towards a solution is to allow for pre-fabricated living unity to adapt and plug into a overal flexible structural system previously used for events. Modular living alters the variation of the program and exterior arrangement within the overal structure.

Design and fabricate operable modular panels that open and close in response to temperature control. The intent is to produce a set of modular panels that can be readily produced to reduce solar exposure along a glazing system. A prototype was coded and explored through arduino application, a motorized pulley system that allows for the panels to contract.

The intent of this project is to design and construct a temporary kit-of-parts pavillion that serves as a net zero campus ecosystem. The structures houses rain water collection funnels, structural lightwells that allow for the undulating roomscape to almost feel floating. Situated along a slight topographic grade, the core of the pavillion provides the collection of recreational activites and nesting potential birds and animals. Light weight aluminum rods tied together create a flexible, open and transparent view from 360 degrees.
