Professor Bill Truitt Spring 2014
Los Angeles River YMCA purpose is to re-form the edge of the site to the river. Shifting a no mans land to an inviting park that is attached to a YMCA, hostel, exterior pools, and exterior soccer and basketball courts. Prosthetic Landscape started to reinvent an industrial and infrastructure site and turn it into central park that connects very different zones and cleans existing river by adding bioswales and natural pools to filtrate the water.

ABSTRACT CONNECTI O N
Professor Peter Zweig Fall 2014
Abstract Connection is a room that brings the connectivity of the millenial resident to the city. In this generation we all move in a faster pace and remain connected with each other, each city, and even each object with one click. Abstract Connection brings the concept and idealogy of a connecting system to the room of a millenial. Studying the patterns of how visitors use typical rooms, what utilities use when they arrive and when they live were the pattarmeters used to form and place certain parts of room as it is used. On average millenials spend less time in their hotel rooms so this room was designed to work in the most efficient way possible while mantaining a high quality design.

Stoma in the wall is a project that houses local artists work and has small theaters. the concept behind a wall with pores is to create a visual separtion that becomes the tool that connects all the spaces and is used as circulation. living the gallery and open spaces free of movement. Taking on brutalism as inspiration and using a solid element to house all the circulation, elevators, bathrooms, and even theater. Living the center as a main space and the spaces on the extior side of the mass become the main gallerie spaces.
