DOTTING THE CITY A curated experience through the city of Athens, Greece.
Museums are usually constrained to a series of buildings, which usually tend to restrain the experience of the city or culture around them. Even though Athens is filled with historical value, most of the museums seem to just display the objects rather than telling the story. In addition, one can start to notice that museums are located in highly touristic areas; therefore attracts mostly visitors and avoids local. This proposed museum attempts to give the tourist a more engaging experience of the city, while allowing locals to engage with the history of Athens. The “Dotting Museum� proposes a series of programs (Information Center, Coffee Shop and a Library) that combines the museum program to connect various historic sites of the city and bring locals and foreigners together.
6
“Dotting Museum” is a programmatic network developed around the historic sites of Athens, which will explore new means of display and interaction. The proposal’s objective is to transform the perception of the museum for locals and tourist. Therefore, the projected places will allow the museum to become a part of the local’s daily life, while the tourist can experience the culture and history of the city at the same time. In order to achieve this relationship, the three different programs will incorporate the display of Athenian’s culture in the format of museum display and that with the addition of written information, it will then start to tell a story.
PROGRAMMING: Coffee Shop: 2,000 sf; Library:7,000 sf; Multipurpose rooms:400 sf; Cultural Information Centers:1,000 sf; Storage: 500 sf; Bathrooms:800 sf; Circulation:3,200 sf; Museum/ Gallery: 4,000 sf Total: 20,000 sf

CURRENT SCENARIO: Museums and other programs do not seem to interact. Each exist as entities of their own.
PROPOSAL URBAN SCALE Museums and other programs start to coexist in the same area.
PROPOSA BUILDING SCALE Gallery spaces start to infiltrate the every day Athenians.
PROPOSAL BUILDING SCALE Zoomed in detail. The past history will relate with current events.
Museum Display
Proposed Programs
Athens consists of 117 museums, which most of them exist on their own. The infrastructure serves as shield for the object rather than a home for the artifacts. As many have encountered, when visiting the city, tourists tend to visit museum and historic sites. These sites allow them to acknowledge the past of Greece, while leaving Greek’s immediate culture behind. Locals, on the other hand tend to avoid these activities and enjoy the present Athens, while taking for granted their past. For a city, as rich in culture and history as Athens, one might seem surprised that the museums are not interacting with the city. This design proposal suggests a distinct way of displaying Greek’s artifacts. The museum will exist within programs of frequent use; like a coffee shop. By placing museum programs in a coffee shop, the visitors will have the opportunity to interact with locals constantly. Similarly, by locating a coffee house near a historic site, locals will have the opportunity to engage constantly with wonders that Athens has to offer.
Library + Museum
Information Center + Museum
It needs to be stated, that the relationship between the museum and other programs, does not only need to exist at a building scale, but also in an urban scale.

MAPPING BOSTON A mixture of architecture in Boston’s South End.
Located in Boston’s South End, this project consists in the development of comercial and residential areas. By analyzing the location, land developments, land usage and habitants; the design must accomodate a program that fits at least 200 apartments and an interactive space (Gym).
36
TYPOLOGIES IN BOSTON
ACCESS + MIXTURE
The northen part of the South End consists of row houses while the southern part holds flat pancake buildings.
In the designated lot, the main access should serve as path for both typologies to mix and relate.
MAIN FACADE
DESIGN PROPOSAL
The site allows for all buildigns to integrate. They look at each other and bring the users together.
The purple area represents the gym, the magenta represents the row houses, and the brown represents the high rise buildings.
Located at Boston’s South End, Washington Street plays an important role in this area. Leaving aside the fact that it existed in this location for over 200 years and has “survived” the various land transformations of Boston, this street divides the South End into two distinct programs: The Row Houses and The Commercial or Wider Buildings. Even though they appear to follow distinctive rules, both programs serve as an envelope or as a protector for an open space. Having this idea in mind, the proposal for the site is to develop a connection between the two segments by creating wrappers with openings that allow access from various points. The various programs used, the Row Houses, The Terrace buildings and Gym, permit a communication between the public and private spaces. All of the programs, are limited in the amount of hallways, in order to suggest a relationship between neighbors and guests. The various open spaces, either at ground level or up in the roof give connections for the residents or visitors. Before picking the location of the buildings, the site was divided into 4 little lots, where water drives circulation. The streets determine the main façade of the building. And, the various proposed programs determine the amount and location of open spaces.
37
THE GYM
THE ROW HOUSE These units are designed around the concept of interaction. In order to achieve this, hallways were only used when they are truly needed. By creating only one access corridor, socialization become necessary. Each floor has a different plan view, where the second floor is the entryway to the 3 various apartment designs. This proposed building has one, two and three bedroom apartment, where each apartment consists of two stories.
THE TERRACE BUILDING These units suggest a bigger complex. In the main floor there is space of offices, meeting rooms and social areas. The remaining levels of the building are equal. The complex has various access routes, where each has two elevators and two emergency staircases that serve as the entryway to 4 distinct apartment types and their balconies. Also, each two-elevator route gives access to the green spaces located at the top of the building. The building includes one, two, three and four bedroom apartment.

MIT MEDIA LAB A robotic printed 3D facade proposal dor MIT’s Media Lab.
The MIT Media Lab was chosen as a case study and experiment for the 3D printed optimized facade due to its variability in programmatic elements within one elevation of the building. Because the facade was generated digitally, it can be further analyzed with DIVA for its affects on lighting, allowing for iterations of designs to optimize lighting conditions

DIVA SIMULATIONS The Grasshopper and DIVA plug-in for Rhinoceros work concurrently to generate and assess fabrication models in terms of daylight. A preliminary floor by floor lighting analysis was done on DIVA of the southeast facade of the MIT Media Lab in order to design and target spaces with undesired direct natural light and glare. Site studies were done to evaluate the frequency and usage of the interior manual blinds throughout the day due to the excessive natural light. Through the process of additive manufacturing, the lighting conditions of an interior space can be adjusted and optimized by a customized and distinct facade system. The necessity in lighting conditions is determined by the program and function of the space, such as a double height gallery space as opposed to an office space. The proposed facade will act as a light filtration system, ultimately affecting the interior lighting conditions. The resulting before and after heat maps were used to compare and assess the performance of the facade. Before and after HDR images of distinct interior spaces, defined by program, were taken and rendered into false color to aid in providing an accurate understanding of the facade’s effect.

GRASSHOPPER The technology of additive manufacturing, alongside with digital computation programs such as Grasshopper for Rhinoceros has allowed for vast opportunities within the design realm. This project presents an integrated computational and digital fabrication work processes for a custom high performance ceramic facade system, in terms of daylight and usage The MIT Media Lab was chosen as a case study and experiment for the 3D printed optimized facade due to its variability in programmatic elements within one elevation of the building. The digital input in Grasshoper is in the gradient, where 100% black indicates the widest aperture and 100% white indicates the smallest aperture. This information is then translated into the physical realm as illustrated on the bottom image. The gradient is determined by the necessity of light in the space, where all the floor plates are defined to be the smallest aperture since it requires no light. All gradients are a combination of a vertical and horizontal gradient. The vertical gradient controls the aperture based on an average persons height as well as the division of the floor plates. The horizontal gradients indicate the shift in programmatic elements in the buidling. Responding to the interior characteristics of the building, including walls and columns. This is an inside-out approachto designing the building facade,where the facade now becomes a reflector or indicator of the interior spaces, embracing the unique elevation of the MIT Media Lab.

CLAY EXPLORATIONS Clay was chosen because of its fluidity and consistency, the ability to be extruded from a canister as well as hold its own structure The experimentation in materials was done in parallel with the development of extruders to test the right amount of pressure with its most suitable consistency of clay. The Air-dry Clay is an oil-based clay which does not require firing. Produced in grey, the clay dries a dark brown to almost black color. Given the air-dry hardening process of the clay, time can be saved in the production process, however the layers of extrusions does not bond to one another and it becomes extremely brittle when dried. The consistency of the clay cannot be changed by adding water and it does not dry consistently. The Porcelain Clay is an extremely fine-grain clay that requires the traditional firing process. The clay dries a light beige and fires to a clean white color. The final ceramic piece has a clean finished look and becomes extremely durable post-firing.The layers of extrusion bind together throughout the drying and firing process.

The CV90 clay is a mixture of Porcelain and coarse sand. Similar to the Porcelain clay, CV90 similarly dries a light beige and fires to a clean white; it is extremely durable and provides a clean finished look. Given its granier consistency, CV90 has a smaller allowable work time but it weighs much lighter once fired b cause the moisture evaporates. The layers of extrusion bind together throughout the drying and firing process.

RYOBI 2.0 In Ryobi 2.0, the 18V DC Motor, gearbox and plunger system was taken from the original Ryobi caulking gun. The motor was rewired to an external control box consisting of an Arduino, a potentiometer to control speed and a 3-way 6-pin toggle switch to reverse the plunger by reversing the current. A new casing was made to house the motor, and a larger clay canister was made using a 3 in. diameter plexi tube with a customized 3D printed nozzle in order to hold more clay per extrusion.

RYOBI 3.0 In Ryobi 2.1, the original PVC pipe canister and metal brace was due to the complications with the larger canister. The speed of the potentiometer can be monitored when the arduino is hooked onto a computer through the arduino program. By quantifying the speed of the motor, accuracy in controlling the bead size was achieved. 55
CASE STUDY: MIT MEDIA LAB The facade would accommodate the lighting needs through the variation in its apertures. With the gradient system developed in Grasshopper, each facade panel has a custom design that is never arbitrary or generic. Additive manufacturing has made such highly customized production possible despite each piece of the facade being unique and distinct in its tilt, height, and opening. The next step in exploration perhaps lies in the complete integration of the support structure and facade piece, where all elements of a facade system can be constructed and produced through additive manufacturing.

DIVA ANALYSIS By being next to an open space, and the site’s relation to the sun’s path, The Triangle was affected differenty in each facade. Various radiance analysis where done in order to see this difference. Once the sun’s impact on each facade could be seen, the design came into play. Various materials were used for the creation of various ambients in the building. Concrete for the building’s core, and glass for lighting. In order to provide the proper shading for each facade, steel louvers were used with different spacings between them. In addition, the southwestern facade is covered with solar panels in order to obtain larger amounts of solar energy, and to provide shading.

SAGAM HOSPITAL A design proposal for Sagam’s Hospital third floor.
A studio sponsored by Mass General Hospital in partnership with DESINElab. MGH’s Center for Global Health aims to improve health conditions among communities. The goal was to redesign the hospital’s third floor into a community base floor of interaction, where various doctors or soon to be, can learn new healthcare techniques. It should allow the mixture of public and private spaces.

THIRD STORY FLOOR PLAN PROPOSAL “Sagam Community Hospital is in a phase of growth and trasition as it responds to the evolving overall vision, availabe resources, and needs of the community. Our proposal facilitates flexibility of use and smooth transitions between the various programmatic zones. In addition, it will also define the private versus collaborative spaces for staff and visitors. This floor plan and design provides a space that evolves to suit the changing needs of users and the dynamic overall goal of research and innovation�

PROPOSED LOCALLY BUILD FURNITURE + PORCH The proposed furniture consist of 18� x 18� frames and metal threads. Each frame is wrapped with African patterned fabrics, which can be build by groups of women. The main characteristic of the furniture is that it can be arranged in various forms in order to provide multiple functions. The porch is a unique spot, where the people can look back to their community. The panels open up just like windows, a hinge mechanism. It is a gathering and recreational spot for the whole hospital. It can be used for meetings, recreational events, and more.

PASSIVE VENTILATION SYSTEM A low income housing proposal for the rural areas in Quito.
Because of the levels of respiratory infections, this project proposes a low income housing for the city of Quito, Ecuador. This housing proposal will serve as a prototype for future community complexes. Locals can easily build this prototype, which brings community together.

CASE STUDY: QUITO Quito, the capital of Ecuador, is one the highest cities in the world. Because of its location and weather, the air is hugely polluted; and therefore increasing the number of acute respiratory infections detected each year. Even though it has increased rapidly, it mostly affects people with low income. The main problem remains in the poor housing areas of the cities. The residents of such areas are constantly exposed to indoor pollutants. The over population and lack of ventilation has brought this issue to a bigger scale. The proposal is to develop a low-income house typology that can reduce the levels of pollutants inside the house. This can be achieved by having passive ventilation systems; keeping in mind that it has to affordable. In order to design the house, one most understands the levels of pollution brought by various elements such as: electro-domestics, cars, altitudes and so on. In addition, one must study wind patterns in the area, Calderon, Quito. By looking at current housing models and by understanding the needs of low-income communities; the new design comes to live. 88

HOUSE DESIGN The proposal is to develop a low-income house typology that can reduce the levels of pollutants inside the house. Since the location is considered a marginal neighborhood, the only way to reduce pollution is through natural ventilation. This can be achieved by having passive ventilation systems. 89

Room Agregation
UNDERSTANDING THE GRID SYSTEM There are two house sizes 16 feet by 16 feet and 16 feet by 24 feet. The smaller house is divided in 4 areas, and the bigger one in 6. Each area is divided in to a grid of 32 inches wide and 30 inches wide. These grids will give access to the windows and doors. The openings can be divided into two typologies: wind and light. The wind typologies are created for ventilation and not allowed to be moved from its original location. They are operated by manual louvers. The other types of openings, light openings, are created to maximize the amount of light that comes into the house. These openings can be located anywhere in the house, according to the needs.
