As a part of our skills class we were required to test the ability of our hand rendering. The project was to choose a photograph of an interior space and do a hand rendering of that space to match as closely as possible.

For the 101 installation Project we were instructed to obtain 100 or more of a single object plus a single connecting element. We were to construct an installation piece then house it within the DAAP building so to interact with the space and its occupants. I chose paint swatches as my 100 objects and fishing line as the connecting element. By stringing together compelmentary color swatches, a dramatic color palette was created. By housing the installation piece in a main DAAP doorway, I not only ensured that a maximum amount of occupants experienced it, but that the installation recieved a large amount of air movement, creating the intended spinning effect of each individual set of swatches.

Located on the South face of the University of Cincinnati’s DAAP buiding is a courtyard that currently serves no function. We were assigned to redesign this neglected courtyard space to better service the needs of our fellow DAAP students. I created a series of stepping platforms that alignes with the mullion system of the surrounding DAAP buildings.

The concept of the Clifton Literary Center was to reflect the branching of a tree through the placement and elevation of masses. I established 6 masses on the site which expanded from a central courtyard, all of which oriented to mimic the shape of the Clifton site.From there I segragated private versus public spaces based off ground level or second story elevation.

Provided a raw space in downtown Cincinnati, we were instructed to design this space to suit the needs of a provided client and the building contractor. The concept of the loft was to create a funelling affect within the space which was translated through the partition placement as well as cieling height changes. The height differencial creates a distinct segragation between public and private space.

As part of our historical preservation studio we were put in contact with a client who is attempting to convert the 150 year old cGerman Reform Church into a rockin’ music venue. The church is located on Freeman Avenue in Over-the-Rhine, Cincinnati. Following historical preseration standards we had to renovate and design the space using minimally intrusive design methods. As a team we designed a budget concious space that was fully adjustable to the clients wants and needs.
