exploring and studying the work of the artist Sol LeWitt, in particular, his wall drawings. By creating a two- dimensional drawing which will serve as a reverse palimpsest for the extraction of five distinct layers to generate a speculative spatial narrative.
By practice the diagram (where 50 dots are connected with each other) as a set of instructions embedded in the drawings generated through Sol LeWitt’s art works. The premise of the inquiry will be based on Reiser/ Umemoto’s definition of Difference in Kind/Difference in Degree where meaning of any element is defined by the “relation to the specific behavior” within any given context rather than prescriptive architectural orders that operate within a predetermined range of applications.
ADE 521 Architectural Studio l Professor Elizabeth McLean Fall 2019 | Inquiry 02: Research
The envelope of 40 Tenth Avenue, commonly known as “Solar Carve Tower,” is not only defined by the positive construction, but also the area not built or subtracted from the envelope based on solar angle. In this case study, argue that the area subtracted by the sun - or negative space - sculpts the positive space to create the architecture as secondary. The envelope and carved glass system are used simply as a smart means of transitioning positive and negative space in a highly efficient way considering building performance. In this research project, we incorporate and respond to our own earlier investigations from INQUIRY 01: SPECULATION.
ST. PARKING GARAGE
ADE 521 - Architectural Studio l Professor Elizabeth McLean Arizona State University Downtown Design School Fall 2019 | Inquiry 03: Design | Phoenix, AZ
Downtown Phoenix has numerous historic buildings, many which shows how different architects design these buildings. As time moves on, buildings are designed to last longer, the materials of the building are different and technology has a big impact in the design world. Although, as society is changing, these historic buildings are getting new renovation inorder for them to last longer later in the future. The Jackson Street parking garage is one example of renovation and is surrounded by some famous historic buildings in downtown Phoenix. The Jackson Street garage is the new foundation for Arizona State University: Design School.

ADE 522 - Architectural Studio ll Professor Thomas Hartman Spring 2020 | Phoenix, Arizona
Fire Station #22 located in South Phoenix on Central and Broadway. With tall masonry walls open to its surrounding community and to the public. Fire station #22 is to design a space for our brave fire fighters who help protect and service their community. This fire station welcomes the public with open doors that provides training with the fire department. The layout of the fire station allows fire fighters to have their own living quarters on the ground level and their dormitories on the second level with a private deck. The design of the building allows fire fighters to have easy access to the apparatus bay in seconds. The station provides a kitchen, break room, fitness room, and private amenities for our fire fighters. This project is to help bring the community together, with natural landscape and a safe environment.

What’s the most critical factor dealing with social housing in Mexico City? Throughout the history of mankind, there are a set of basic human needs that we have. Shelter, being one of them, then access to resources like food and water. Throughout time the kind of competition or allocation of those resources has been challenged by certain external factors and so one being, the fact that only people with economical needs have access to certain resources or based upon people class status or other kinds of socially created sets of criteria that started to bear heavily on people’s ability to able to access shelter and able to access to clean water, and this is kind of epitomize in challenges that have been occurring in Mexico City. Because the perversion of clean water as an index of the infrastructure that doesn’t exist. Has been kind of, one of the most prevalent forms that has caused difficulties there. My project is in Xochimilco, Mexico. My design proposal is, I will design a model that allows my project to coexist in balance with the surrounding environment. Design in different ways, able to integrate like water capture reclamation, energy production and for the Indigenous people of the Nahuatl Tribe who are living on the site.

Current status on social housing
• With the population of 126 million people,
• 904,00 lack access to safe water
• 11 million lack access to improved sanitation.
How a city that floods is running out of water?
• Mexico City is running out of water and the crisis is getting much worse, everything from sewage spills to subsidence to in Social Housing in Mexico City is the lack of access to utilities and infrastructure.
Flooding events are predicted to intensify as climate change has been linked to increasing weather patterns. This influx of water brings many problems. Traffic stops as the water floods roads. Poor infrastructure and flash floods can cause the sewage system to overflow. And sewage pipes can burst, filling houses with dirty
Burstwater.pipes
aren’t the only reason that Mexico City’s sewage overflows. Rubbish disposed of on the streets often clogs pipe drains, backing up the system. That can have serious consequences quickly, since Mexico City produces about 40,000 litres of sewage ev ery
Thissecond.means
that workers frequently have to fix the water drainage system. Most tunnels have been overworked and corroded, which reduces its capacity to drain sewage water efficiently.
Throughout the history of mankind, there are a set of basic human needs that we have. Shelter, being one of them, then access to resources like food and water.

Because the perversion of clean water as an index of the infrastructure that doesn’t exist. Has been kind of one of the most prev alent forms that has caused difficulties there.
Despite flooding events and heavy rainfall, the city is facing a water shortage. Much of this is because of the lack of old infrastructure in Mexico City as well, the city lost 40% of its water.
Here is a quote from the city’s chief,officer Arnold Arnoldo Matus Kramer, he said “the poorest residents are the worst affected. Some neighborhoods are not even connected to the city’s water network and must rely on buying water by per liter. This is the most expensive way to access water, many houses store water tanks to overcome this lack of supply therefore, we need to revise how people get water and understand that access to water is a human right.”
My proposal is, I will design a model that allows my project to coexist in balance with the surrounding environment. Design in different ways, able to integrate like water capture reclamation, social dynamics that allows the projects to live more balanced in their natural surrounding environment.
The site I’ve choosen is located in the middle of the fields in Xochimilco. This (110’x190’) plot of land has no perivous housing, roads nor running water. The current conditions of this site is seen below.

THE FUTURE
621 - Architectural Studio lV | Professor Max Underwood YouTube Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohCDd6qGOvQ Spring 2021 | Cottonwood, Arizona
Farming the Future: Sharing and extending tribal agriculture wisdom. Before colonization, Indigenous people were hunters, gatherers and farmers. Although many Indigenous tribes were from all over North America, they had many skills and experiences with the land and one of their surviving skills was farming. Look back on how Indigenous people used to farm is totally different from what it looks like in today’s society. In my project, I designed two separate structure, one for living space and the other one is for the gathering space. Both structures are curved into a circle with a circular roof. The rooms for the farmers have different views, looking out at nature and the space between the rooms is an outdoor open spaced that is surrounded by the natural environment. The gathering space is an outdoor public space where the farmers come together to spend time cooking and eating together as a family.
Location:Cottonwood, Arizona
Our adventure starts in Cottonwood located in the ‘heart’ of Arizona. Cottonwood is ideally situated above the heat of the desert and below the cooler temperatures of Arizona’s high country. Surrounded by the red rocks of Sedona to the northeast and Mingus Mountain to the southwest. With its lower elevation and cool temperature and having the Verde river near by makes Cottonwood a great place to visit.
Here is a map of the watershed that covers the majority of the center region of Arizona.
The watershed starts from the Northern region of Arizona. Then, it continues all the way down to the center region of state. Finally stop in the city of Fountain Hills.
• There are three Indigenous tribes that are located in the •watershed.Thefirsttribe is the Yavapai-Prescott Indian Tribe located in Prescott, AZ.
• The second tribe is the Yavapai-Apache Nation located near Camp Verde, Az.
• And the third tribe is the Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation located near Fountain Hills, AZ.
AllTribesthree
tribe have similar technique of farming and similar method of how they used the Verde river to grow their crops on their fields. As you can see, here are some pictures of example of how the three tribes used similar technique and systems to farm on their lands.
Design proposal
The site I have chosen is in the north-eastern part of Cottonwood. The 65 acres plot of land will be cover with fields of crops. In the site plan, as you can see, I didn’t want to take out any existing tress nor shave any part of the land.
