Movement Study - Cube Library Studio II - Movement_Form_Concept Location: Octavia Blvd - San Francisco Instructors: Mark Donohue & Robert Shepherd California College of the Arts - ARCH - 201 - Spring 2014

Studio I introduces architecture as a process of investigation, interation, and innovative design. The class is developed foundational skills in design thinking, model building, and drawing. It starts by investigating the familiar the human body in motion and finding generative meaning in the dynamic, spatial conditions it can create. Students rigorously record activity via photographic techniques. Subsequently, students translate these records into 2d notational graphics to reveal a conceptual framework. This drawing then guides the students to build a 3d representation of their concept. This first project develops essential design skills: architectural process, conceptual clarity, spatial exploration, model building craft, and drawing precision. By applying the techniques fron project one, students will design a branch library for the final project.

Movement Study_Stepping

The body movement study is an investigation the space of action that explores the relationship between architecture representation and motion. This study employs miltiple architectural stratagies: the initial recording; analysis; and, finally, a re-interpretation. Throughtout this process, we will discover how the seemingly ordinary has the potential to inspire the extraordinary. A language and process develope by studying specific operative terms that are found through the movement study. This language and process inture becomes a design generation for spatial response.

Presidio Veiled Garden Studio II - Recreation _ Research _ Culture Center Location: Presidio - San Francisco Instructors: Matt Hutchinson & Ines Lejarraga California College of the Arts - ARCH - 202 - Spring 2014

The design are series of veils which create new experiences for people. By creating different layers of veils such as, glass, screen, and freen spaces, people will have different feeling when moving through the spaces. Taking advantages of the Presido geometry to develope for the design stratagies and the green space for the spatial design, Presidio Veiled Garden will be a green house learning and research center about plants to educate and investigate about how to keep Presidio green. Also, based on the asvantages of creating a new slope for the site and the main concept about green space, the design is treated as an underground structure by evacuating the building 5 feet dow to the earth and using the landscape to hide the spaces. By applying these design stratagies, the green roof is placed as eyes level when staning on the street. Visistors would see the building as a continuty green carpet to conect the Main Post of the Presidio to the Marsh. From whatever angles people stand, the building is treated as a green space.

The stratagies in the design is that a new hotel needs to conect to the Highline and creating a new way to approach a new natural spaces. By bringing the new spatial of natural in to the design, yet in different way from the Highline, the flower hotel is introduced to the concept. The design is divided into three main areas as the programs functional. The canteliver ramps function as the flower beds to conect all of the programs of the hotel. Therefore, the flowers are intergration between spaces, people, and natural. Based on the main concepts of flowers, the hotel is design as a green house which aie is tided and temperature is controled to keep the flowers grown. The ideas of growing different flowers in oppite seasons, people will experience the spaces of flowers in opposite seasons of the year. The design also evacuates sixteen feet underground to create a main flower garden as the heart of the hotel. It also creates a transition from Highline to inside hotel spaces.

Mission Co-op Living Studio IV - Housing Location: Mission District - San Francisco Instructors: Randolph Riuz & Kristen Sidell California College of the Arts - ARCH - 304 - Spring 2015

The design applies the idea of colective housing to provide the privacy of each individual units and sharing common spaces for the community. Mission Co-op Living is designed to minimize the squarefootage of three unit types. Therefore, the design takes advantage of larger sharing areas such as kitchens, living rooms, couryards, and other activities to encourage residences interact with others in a larger community.

Model Making_Work House Material & Method - Model Making Instructors: David Maynard California College of the Arts - ARCH - 333 - Fall 2013

Material and Method introduces a process-based framework for understanding the basic technical aspects of building materials, construction and performance. the study of material and tectonic complexity will form this basic for exploring how to conceptually intergrate the intrinsic workings and composition of building systems and evaluate their capacity to affect material and spatial performance. Beside the lectures, laboratories focus on precedent studies to explore fundamental principles of assemblies and their potential to generate ordering systems and enable material and enviromental performance. Students will be teamed and given a building to build a sectional of the given building. Work House designed by Guthrie and Buresh architects is the given to the team to experience how materials, work together.

Drawing and Sketching

The drawing and skatching are using famous buildings and tranfering these buildings into drawing paper with ink, charcol, and pencil. On the right, plan and elevation of Falling Water was drawn with ink on drawing paper. Below left is Sydney Opera House and right is Notre Dame du Haut were sketched with charcol and pencil.
