Through modificiations to the module the living space can be expanded to house larger family sizes. The units then sit off set from each other creating a pedestrian oriented open frontage that Proposed Redevelopment becomes a point of interaction between the members of the community.

Completed as part of a design build industrial design elective course, I took part in the design and full scale prototyping of the University of Waterloo School of Architecture Pavilion at the Explore Design Booth. The space was meant to have a diagonal flowing circulation pattern with work exhibited to the outside. Particular features also included an illuminated wall of collaged undergraduate work as well as a white bar overhead, meant to address a connection across the space as well as provide signing for the school out to the rest of the space.

The 2009 Explore Design Pavilion is expected to be broken down into smaller components and packed into a 26’ moving truck. The Pavilion will then be assembled on site on October 13, 2009, the day before Explore Design. Time Period

The Truck will be rented twice over the period of three days, to avoid additional costs on the middle day. Thus it will be rented once to drop off for assembly, and then once again to disassemble and bring back to UWSA. The pavilion will be assembled within the 2 hour window that waterloo has signed up for (time TBD). Size

Due to the Pavilion size a 26’ truck will need to be rented at 168$ per day (UHaul: before tax) Required Equipment

To assemble on site, our team will need at least 10 people of manpower, using power drills and hardware. Some attachments will be joined through slotting and friction fit connections including the premade connections for the aluminum conduit.

The proposal for the 2009 Explore Design Pavilion strives to meet the marketing and program intentions in order to successfully showcase Waterloo Architecture to prospective students. The pavilion endeavours to engage students through an experience that they could not get from the school website or from a tour. Through the application of “hands-on” elements and the use of visual aids, the pavilion creates an interesting experience that lives up to Waterloo’s acclaimed reputation as the best architecture school in Canada. It is believed that the pavilion willDEPLOYMENT allow students to take away valuable information with them regarding what the school has to offer and what it means to be an architecture student.

Situated in South Parkdale, Toronto through an analysis of transportation patterns of type and density, I created a vision of a new community space containing urban density while maintaining programmable pedestrian streets that will re-evaluate the role of the automobile in city living. The main structures are composed of undulating roofscape buildings used as bridges over a new greenway in place of the gardiner that contains new light rail lines as well as walking and biking 01 paths. By offsetting more traffic onto public transit it discourages a commuter lifestyle in order to help develop the downtown as well as promote more energy conscious living

Design development for the lobby, elevator lobby and cab as well as office floor lobby in a business tower in Chongqing, China. Multiple iterations were completed and consultation with the client determined a lobby space predominately comprised of limestone panels. Complimented by frosted glass and stainless steel that comprise elevator entrances. The project involved digital drafting of plans and sections of the space as well as elevator cab details, lighting and wall section details as well as digital modeling and rendering of the space.

Notes: Digital model was created in Rhino and then rendered with V-ray for 3ds Max. Project completed with Associate Principal Nyirabu Nyirabu. Additional work was completed for a confidential project in Goreagon, India.

HOSTEL ARTEMISIA. HOSTEL ARTEMISIA represents a visionary and unique conceptual approach to the hostel typology by integrating the infrastructure of a highly sustainable vertical farm within an international quality hostel. The two-sided approach to the design’s orientation allows the farm to maintain maximum sun exposure while providing adequate shade to the habitable spaces. Hostel Artemisia will be a contemporary hub redefining Bohemian architecture within the gothic quarter and become a beacon-like landmark for visitors interested in a unique Barcelona experience.

The rationale of the vertical farm integrates void spaces over multiple levels with a selection of crop types organized by their stage of cultivation: planting, growing or harvesting. The vertical farm will also provide occupants the unique opportunity to balance the cost of their stay by contributing to the sustainability of the farm through various functions and chores. The iridescent membrane structure also provides irrigation to the farm by collecting rainwater at the top and filtering into the structure and interior spaces.

Situated in South Parkdale, Toronto through an analysis of transportation patterns of type and density, I created a vision of a new community space containing urban density while maintaining programmable pedestrian streets that will re-evaluate the role of the automobile in city living. The main structures are composed of undulating roofscape buildings used as bridges over a new greenway in place of the gardiner that This contains new light rail is Hostel Artemsia. VIEW FROM NORTH lines as well as walking and biking paths. By offsetting more traffic onto public transit it discourages a commuter lifestyle in order to help develop the downtown as well as promote more energy conscious living The functions of the design are rationalized into a variety of cellular forms sized to correlate with their use, the smallest cell representing a single bed unit. The social areas of the hostel intermittently occupy multiple levels and represent vibrant Cell Collectives. The pinnacle of Hostel Artemisia culminates in a Sky Bar which will provide a currently unavailable but breathtaking 360 degree view of Barcelona exclusive only to Hostel Artemisia patrons.

Situated in the Campo Martius in Rome, Italy this “house for the city� is imagined as a stacked layering of programs containing distinct architectural references juxtapositioned together in as a means to create a unique identity for traditional features of Rome. By envisioning these elements differently from their traditional archaic forms 02 found in palazzos, cathedrals and within the overall urban fabric of thte city, it propels forward the question of a new identity in a city compact with historicity.
