Crawford Lake Visitor Centre - Conservation Halton, Milton This modest visitor center was designed to integrate itself - both figuratively and subsequently literally - within nature. Situated on the grounds of the Crawford Lake Conservation Area, this building is the first meeting place for visitors before embarking on the parks various trails, reconstructed Iroquoian village, or seeing the meromictic Crawford Lake. This group project was designed alongside Conservation Halton, creating the unique opportunity to blend the creativity of architecture school with the real life limitations imposed by clients.

Crawford Lake Design-Build - A Sculptural Interpretation of Aboriginal Craftsmanship This team design-build project is situated on the grounds of Crawford Lake Conservation Area, in Milton, Ontario. It was conceived as a prelude to the design of my final fourth year studio project, a new visitor center for the park (previous). Working with a local aboriginal, inspiration was drawn from the intricacies of the aboriginal weaving and long-house construction techniques. Building upon the intimate relationship natives have with materials and assemblies, we pushed out materials to the limits, curving, bending, and cupping members of wood.

Homeless Architecture - The Utilitarian Temple - Lower Don Parkland This public washroom, which is situated at Bloor and the DVP, provides a basic amenity to a homeless community. The design is derived from a classical proportioning system, using regulating lines to dictate the form. As a result, the temple form of classical architectural naturally lent itself to this design. This creates an architectural expression that doesn’t allude to a structure for homeless people. All of the dimensions were dictated by the materials being used to create efficiency and eliminate waste.

The bathroom contains a grey-water sink and toilet unit, ceramic-tiled shower with a seat, and a metal shelf to store personal possessions. The floor is raised 200mm above the ground, to add to the classical three-tiered approach as well as to allow for services to run underneath. The interior finishes are relatively durable, allowing city workers to come in and power-wash the entire room. This is further simplified as the floors slopes towards the center of the room where the drain is positioned. The roof additionally does not sit directly on the walls, emphasizing the building reaching skyward while preventing a fully enclosed space, discouraging squatters from moving in.

AC Screen and Exhaust Turbine - Design Innovation Hack-A-Thon Competition This innovative screen is designed to be placed on top of a typical AC unit and harness the constant exhaust airflow to generate electricity. This is achieved by the use of a revolutionary turbine – the Archimedes Turbine – which can achieve an 80% efficiency, an unprecedented efficiency for conventional small turbines. Designed with a partner, our current calculations estimate this design can generate 1 kWh of electricity – fundamentally free energy. The most basic function is the aesthetic quality that the design brings to a typically mundane mechanical system.

Summit - Winnipeg Warming Hut Competition Warmth is often associated with movement. The development of this proposal engages the user to participate through climbing and crawling. The structure is comprised of a series of curved wooden ribs. These curves are clad with wood slats that create the opportunity to climb on top of the assembly. When venturing within, users are confronted with a series of humps; resembling snow mounds that challenge them to crawl through the space. These activities enable the participant through action, thus providing a structure that promotes interaction to maintain warmth.

Think Tank - Kortright Welcome Centre The Building Research Establishment Innovation Park in the Kortright Center stands as a model for sustainable design, implementing a uniquely Canadian vernacular. The design for their new welcome center is an extension of this expression and places the building’s methods of construction on display - turning the building into a physical piece of the exhibit it’s meant to house. The integration of concrete with a vernacular wood framed construction assembly allows the building to continue to develop the dialogue the surrounding prototype houses have created.

Interior Perspective - French Catholic District School Board Administrative Office Renovation Project
Elementary and Secondary School Design - Greater Toronto Area This collection of images is from three different school designs I’ve contributed to at work. They include: a renovation project for the administrative office for the French Catholic District School Board, Scarborough Secondary School, Peterborough Secondary School, and Stouffville Secondary School. I was opportunity to lead the design of an administration office renovation project (above) while also playing a significant role in the design of the chapel, library space, foyer, and the auditorium spaces picture to the right.

Whisper - Nuit Blanche 2016 Design Proposal Whisper is an installation that allows people to share their secrets, inspired by playing broken telephone with string and foam cups. We reinterpreted this idea, creating bells which contain a speaker, motion-sensor, and microphone. Several bells hang from an individual tile at varying heights. The assembly of these tiles creates our interactive exhibition. As participants approach our display, they trigger a motion sensor, activating the speaker which plays the previously recorded message, or a secret. As they get closer, the microphone is activated, and begins recording.

Extreme Redesign Challenge - Product Design Competition This design, completed with my partner, is an innovative 4-in-1 toothbrush re-imagines the conventional toothbrush. Its compact and disassemblable body makes it perfect for travel and it also saves space, conveniently combining a toothbrush, Listerine compartment, toothpaste and extractor all into one sleek form. To use, simply screw in any travel sized toothpaste into the main chamber (blue above) and feed it through the extractor. Slide the extractor towards the bristles until the toothpaste comes out through holes in between the bristles.
DESIGN THE GO BRUSH IS A UNIQUE DESIGN THAT SEEKS TO COMBINE THE TOOTHBRUSH, TOOTHPASTE, AND LISTERINE INTO A TIDY ALL IN ONE BRUSH, FOR WHEN YOU TRAVEL - EFFICIENT STORAGE OF ALL THREE ITEMS - DISASSEMBLE FOR CLEANING EACH INDIVIDUAL PART - ERGONOMIC DESIGN AND MATERIAL SELECTION - SAME SIZE AS CONVENTIONAL ELECTRIC TOOTHBRUSH (210 MM) - 3D PRINTED FOR HIGH LEVEL OF ACCURACY, CUSTOMIZED FABRICATION AND SPEED OF ADAPTATION/MODEL CHANGES
HOW IT WORKS 1 - THE TOOTHPASTE IS SCREWED INTO THE NOZZLE AND IS ATTACHED TO THE MAIN CHAMBER 2 - FILL THE MOUTHWASH CONTAINER AND PLACE THE CAP ON IT 3 - ATTACH MOUTHWASH CONTAINER TO THE MAIN CHAMBER 4 - SLIDE EXTRACTOR UNTIL TOOTHPASTE COMES OUT OF THE BRUSH HEAD
