Reconstruction of the site Baznicas Street 8, Liepaja The site is located in historical city centre of the city Liepaja, Latvia. Currently the site is empty, however, after careful historical documentation investigation it was found out that the Church house in famous German craftsmanship style Fachwerk construction there was once at these streets intersection - corner. Therefore the new building concept was drawn on existing building reconstruction with slight alterations from original, that is the basement floor were slightly elevated in order to house public ground floor uses (bank), as well as the roof windows were added. The new addition, were designed as an eclecticism style facade with bricks rendering patterns in order to resemble and fit in in the rest of neighbourhood used traditional materials and craftsmanship.

The main facade towards the street

Regional museum of Ogre Brivibas Street 30b, Ogre This was the commission of Ogre City to design a new museum in historical city centre. The building layout was designed as a result of program, available site as well as height limits. The emphasis was on elevation faced towards the Site plan Site plan main pedestrian street which was designed by architect in a playful manner as a typical neighbourhood wooden elevation supplemented with a transparent and contemporary glass curtain wall systems for the main, entrance and exhibition hall lightening, as well as the outdoor stairs to allow the museum visitors access the buildings large terrace (ground floor green roof) on south east.

This project was done in team o four - me, main architect and two other assistants). I had an opportunity to design several options for main elevation design, initial programming, floor plans design and latter later some adjustments to elaborate the final CD plans, as well as I designed and coordinated the site plan design (fire way access, utilities etc.) with other project developers. 6

Interior design for appartment Elizabetes Street 21a-5, Riga This two-story apartment in newly renovated building in city center of Riga was designed for a family with three children. The old building was reconstructed entirely by the client, therefore the existing two floor apartments were chosen by architect and client to combine and serve for this family needs. The project integrated the new structures such as in-house stairs to connect these two levels, fireplace as well as entirely new layout with advanced and up- to date integrated heating, cooling (radiant ceilings), ventilation, security and the mentioned systems performance and management devices. Lot of apartment furniture was designed as a built-in and stained white in order to merge with other woodworks such as window fittings (sills and sledges), wall opening panels and doors.

Interior design for appartment Elizabetes Street 21a-11, Riga This (second) Studio apartment for the same client and at the same building was designed for parents retreat as well as private practice (studio) purposes. The first level houses main- living â&#x20AC;&#x201C;studio room, bedroom and two bathrooms, whereas at the second level there is a sunroom with an entrance to roof terrace where the city center and nearest park can be observed. The unique stairs with integrated, built-in bookshelf, sitting corner and fire place make the small apartment space used efficiently. An existing renovated concrete ceilings and beams were preserved as well as some parts of existing brick walls exhibited, thus making this roof apartment in summers cooler as well as otherwise contemporary and intimate studio apartment atmosphere.

VADUZ NUCLEAR - ACTIVE URBAN A 1st sem. project at University of -Liechtenstein VADUZ NUCLEAR ACTIVE URBAN A 1st sem. project at University of Liechtenstein

Active Urban Architecture Vaduz, Liechtenstein This was the first semester Masterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree program Sustainable Urban Design studio project. Each student choose the municipality (city center) in Liechtenstein and found the most demanding building or site, where should be most necessary to do an intervention project. I choose the city center of Vaduz and its vast car parking area which is located in very center, since due to its mono use - for car parking only, the sites capacity could be more utilized by establishing a new and active multifunctional shopping, working and living center. The proposed building with atrium which will connect the currently often used pathway bus stop and school, was designed as an active urban architecture building, which means that the building with its natural ventilation, green walls and alternative energy sources will produce its energy demand or even surplus itself.

Biocity Lindau Lindau, Germany The second semester project at the Sustainable Urban Design studio was Lindau island, located in famous lake Constance in south of Germany, transformation project. The current car parking area were selected for the new development proposal in order to complete the islands development and attract a new citizens and workplaces to this tourists frequently visited and historical architecture rich island. Furthermore, the main challenge was the current train station and railway tracks redesign in order to move the station on islands north thus getting rid of current barrier railway tracks and connect these currently separated island parts. My proposal was to keep the historical railway tracks as much as possible, by integrating them in a linear landscape park as well as proposing several mixed use buildings as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;flowâ&#x20AC;? along them.

The third semester project was Research report “Sustainable development and energy autonomy of Gewerbe (industrial and trade) zones in Liechtenstein“. The first part of the project was to document and classify the status quo of an existing industrial or in zoning plans designated Gewerbe zones and its typologies. After that, the closer look to selected two typical industrial areas were taken and observations as well as suggestions for future development and improvements for alternative energy resources (as geothermal and PV) use suggested. Additional emphasis by interviewing the companies on sites where put on industrial symbiosis or regional eco-cycling model development, where the ones company waste could be used as the others company source or energy, as well as an existing resources (e.g. steam form the waste incineration plant were transferred to the food production company) shearing were uncovered. The project was done under my professor Peter Droege (who had done already several research projects in region such as “Renewable Liechtenstein“) guidance and supervision. 22 Sintija Jonikane I Portfolio

Eco-city Leutschenbach Zurich, Switzerland The fourth and last semester was my Thesis work. I choose the studio provided site - currently also by the city planning office for redevelopment designated previously industrial and brownfield area in Zurich city. The aim was to develop a new and with latest sustainable practices orientated city quarter development. Therefore after careful site investigation the decision was made as much as possible to recycle and re-use existing building on site (e.g. by adaptive reuse principles utilize existing bus garage for the neighborhood bus museum as well as green industries and services center). the Eco-CitySimilarly, Leutschenbach, Zurich wooden industrial buildings were preserved for the place identity and cultural heritage purposes. The other – new buildings and public spaces were created by applying and integrating the UK Bio region concept ten sustainability principles.

Walker Troop clinic Daegu, Korea Shortly, after my first independent exploration of Revit Architecture 2014, I had a chance to apply my freshly gained skills to a real office project task - Program block design for the new hospital building in Korea. By using Revit software tools Walls and room tags I quickly designed the necessary rooms for this hospital from the client given program listed in Excel. The final product program block pieces were colored by groups and on glued cupboard cut by laser and arranged by architect David Fisk in one level hospital layout.

Atrium Daylight studies Manila, Philiphines After some Ecotect Architecture software introduction and training followed little bit more adwanced daylight analysis software Diva for Rhino. I assisted for the Project performance team to analize and test different glazing materials (provided by manufacturer) for the building large atrium glazing. The main idea was to understand the levels of daylight in this climate in order to act accordingly, e.g. provide the shading systems to eliminate not very pleasant glare or too much sun especially on third level where some work stations will be located.

Revit Architecture training II This building Student Apartments in Eugene, OR designed by the architect Gary Blackwell, ZGF and currently is under construction. Originally it was designed in 2D drafting software Auto Cad, therefore the aim of this one week self-initiated Revit software training was to test and evaluate how fast it is possible to design (build) this building in this software and what are the benefits for using Revit comparing the traditional or previously in industry used software. The result was quite decent rendering as well as plans with automatically created elevations and sections, as well as, doors and windows schedules.

2nd level

The building was modeled or digitally â&#x20AC;&#x153;reconstructedâ&#x20AC;&#x153; after the project original plans by myself as a Revit Architecture training project.

Laight rail station project for University of California San Diego, California San This is the University of California strategically significant area intervention where the new light rail line is planned. The images made as photomontages using the Revit model quick view (line work) renderings and afterwards processed in Photoshop, were prepared for the Schematic Design review and presentation to the client.

The Revit model was made by the team. I did some additional drawing in model for the intersection (circle pattern) and then selected the views and rendered them as well as processed these renderings in Photoshop (including the circle pattern and materials after the team architect sketches). 38 Sintija Jonikane I Portfolio

Color boards Client confidential In the middle of the internship I was assigned for an Interior design project to assist with the color boards preparation for a client presentation and exhibition to the current employees to have a sense for the future building public and new office spaces on a campus. My task was to finish - assemble and refine by colleague already started boards layouts in InDesign and afterwards to print and arrange the materials (which was chosen for these interiors). Since the lot of materials were only one sample, I had a task to call or email and order some more materials for these boards. It was a hand on experience as well as for the project interior design used or other material research opportunity at the office in-house material library.

This project was already in PSE phase, equivalent of 100% CD, however still (untypically) one more public presentation had been necessary to prepare and hold. Therefore, I was asked to finish by colleague and project architect Debbie Chow initiated site plan drawing (dwg) and process it in a Photoshop.

Building redesign Portland, USA An existing building at the center of Portland was redesigned for a client in order to host the medical services- Reproductive Fertility Center. As well as the building seismic upgrades were required to integrate. The current building height is not altered, however the future vertical expansion, one additional floor are considered and integrated in current project design, therefore the structural as well as accessibility elements (e.g. elevator) were designed accordingly. My task was to prepare the proposed building design Photomontages as well as some slight adjustments and annotations for proposed building elevations, plans for the booklet submission to the city Design Commission.

Residential house ‘‘Melderi” This two storey wood frame building was designed for one family with three children near the capital city Riga. The plot was huge, therefore the house with the additional parking area and outhouse were placed freeely in the middle, thus also forming or resembling kinda of traditional Latvian couryard.
