U3 DESIGN STUDIO / 2017 TEAM OF 3
3D PRINTED MODEL 1:2000
PROGRAM / University of Montreal Outremont Campus LOCATION / Montreal, Quebec This project proposes a design for the University of Montreal’s new Outremont campus. The campus will house the Science Complex, Engineering Physics building, Institute of New Materials and a gym and library. The building is located in an industrial neighbourhood on the site of a former rail yard that measures 1km long. We drew inspiration from the existing train line on the site. Currently, it divides the two surrounding neighbourhoods and thus, through our design we hope to make this train an asset for the university and neighbourhood. Additionally, we recognize that students spend most of their time indoors during the winter months so, our building will function as a giant greenhouse in order to provide a more comfortable environment for the students and public which it serves.

CONTEXT MAP
Following on top of the train we created an elevated pedestrian path which will function as a dynamic public space ; populated with cafes, shops and vegetation. We used the existing path of the train to break up the initial volume of the site, and created a third volume by introducing a second entrance following the axis of the surrounding metro stations. The floor plan of the building follows from the organic language of the building masses. A series of courtyards and mezzanines bring light into the building and support the growth of vegetation.

Through the sections we tried to develop a similar organic language. We created a translucent shell with pavilions inside. The shell forms a seemingly continuous surface made from a dynamic roof and facade. Openings are more dense where mezzanines, and thus, the indoor gardens are located. The pavilions hold classrooms, labs, and offices.

PROGRAM / University of Brasilia by Oscar Niemeyer
ROOF REMOVED TO EXPOSE STRUCTURE
LOCATION / Brasilia, Brazil We produced a 1:500, cardboard model of the ICC (central institute for sciences) unit at UnB. The ICC building is 700m long, making the model 1.4m in length. The objective of this exercise was to analyze examples of VLB’s “very long buildings” and to learn meaningful lessons about issues of scale that will later inform an approach for our individual designs within the studio.

IRISH HISTORY MUSEUM U3 DESIGN STUDIO / 2016 TEAM OF 2
PROGRAM / IHMBSM (Irish History Museum and Black Stone Memorial) LOCATION / Montreal, Quebec The site for this project is a mass burial ground for the victims of the Irish potato famine who fled to Montreal and fell ill of the typhus virus. We decided to consider this land as sacred which formed the foundation to our concept. We found it interesting that this rich history remains mostly hidden as of today and as a reaction to this we formed an image of our building emerging from the ground with this history. In our original image we represent our building as a beam of light which would serve as a halo and marker for the land. WEST ELEVATION

SITE PLAN The main entrance point is through the memorial which is located at the north of the site and our building is located in the south east. It is surrounded by gathering and green spaces. Trees will line the entire perimeter to form a protective enclosure. The field is located at the far west of the site and a sloped topography would act as natural bleachers. Five entrances around the site were designed to accommodate pedestrians, cyclists, and cars.

We want the building to act as a seamless totality so we chose to relate program areas together in an open and non-directional way. We developed a constellation of skylights inspired from the circulation patterns and density points within the building. Through the placement of the skylights we are bringing light into the spaces further from the glazed facade. The skylights vary in density creating a dynamic environment.

AL SALAM SCHOOL U2 DESIGN STUDIO / 2016 INDIVIDUAL
PROGRAM / Elementary school for Syrian refugees in Turkey LOCATION / Reyhanli, Turkey The conflict in Syria has affected the lives of countless children, who have had to experience horrific traumas. Fifty-one percent of the Syrian refugee population in Turkey are children who were forced to abandon their homes and live in uncertainty. Some of these children expressed gratitude for Turkey, as it was able to offer them a second home. I chose to express this narrative with my school by bringing a feeling of home back into the lives of these children. SCHOOL

FLOOR PLAN The school is surrounded by three streets, one being a busy highway and is located in a mainly residential area. The school functions on external circulation to create a sense of openness, and to benefit from the warmer climate. The classrooms are organized to create active communal areas that are shielded from the streets for privacy. A playful canopy along the interior of the school works to define and protect the exterior corridor from the sun and rain.

ARTIFACT/FOLLY/ARCHIVE U2 DESIGN STUDIO / 2015 INDIVIDUAL
PROGRAM / Archive LOCATION / Montreal, Quebec This project is centered around two distinct, but related phases. Phase 1 explore the development of a critical position in the making of form, tectonics and space, the critical and cultural evaluation of a site, and the critical understanding of a theoretically charged building use. Phase 2, the constructed reality, develops a complete architectural proposition driven by the research produced in phase one. An architecture is informed and developed through the intensive research of a selected artifact. A series of exercises guide the design and reveal potential design drivers and strategies. The final architecture is loosely based around the program “archive�, and through the experimental research, what is being archived, is discovered. 11

3. FOLLY
4. SITE
Throughout the investigation of the artifact I had been interested in the bicycle chain. The bike chain is very visually engaging and has an obvious tectonic composition. Using one chain link as a unit you are able to stack them vertically and elongate the pin and plates to produce a screen. Screens are a provocative architectural element which have the ability to create and define space even though they are not visually solid. Screens successfully engage the imagination as one is able to see through to the other side but cannot access it. This folly acts as an interactive piece that can change shape through human interaction to create a dynamic and symbolic divide/boarder on any site.
The site is a transformative area within Montreal. It was once the industrial center of Canada and is now being overridden by condos however, there are still traces of Montreal’s past. Located on the site is a turning bridge, I wanted to incorporate it into my design as a tribute to the past. Also due to such fast development the character and culture of the area is endangered. Interesting to note is that the ruins of the industrial infrastructure are covered in graffiti. Through my “archive“ structure I want to create a spacial dialogue between the historical past and present; connecting industry and art.

2007-04-23 --> 3-28-2008 --> 08:20:32
When I think of the word ‘archive’ I recall a theory which states that good design is one that is improved with use. To me this is a very interesting concept because very few objects are. The idea that engagement can improve an artifact makes me think of how the use of an object changes it and, how this change can often be very visual. This transformation acts almost as a narrative or an archive. A bike chain is considered obsolete when the distance between the pins links becomes too large and so it’s thought of as “stretched”. For the reconstruction I wanted to exaggerate this idea of a stretched chain and I did so by joining many chains together to create one very long chain in order to reveal (narrate) the overuse of the bicycle.

5. ARCHIVE
ELEVATIONS The final intervention will archive street art. The exterior cladding of the building will act as a surface to showcase artist’s work. It will be a dynamic structure in the sense that the exterior ‘cladding’ will constantly be changing. The structure is three levels, the upper levels will house individual artist studios and the first will act as a gallery to archive their work. Street art is unique in the sense that it is accessible to anyone so the lower floor gallery will double as a passage or walk way for the public in which they will have to traverse to get from one side of the canal to the other. SHORT ELEVATION
I wanted to maintain the strong site presence of the bridge through re-using the industrial heritage. The design follows the original logic of the bridge while furthering its potential as a cultural incubator for Griffintown. Modular steel boxes are arranged linearly as well as vertically on the bridge while keeping a critical distance from it in order to foster a spatial conversation between the structures. The boxes are ‘floating’ directly above the train tracks to inspire the image of what once was.

PLANT, GROW, PREPARE, SHARE, EAT! CCA CHARETTE / 2015 TEAM OF 4
PROGRAM / Redesign Montreals Archipelago LOCATION / Montreal, Quebec Montreal is an international hub of Canada and food has the power to connect individuals from all over the world, creating a universal language. Today we are witnessing how food is becoming a dwindling resource. Montreal, as a progressive city must address this issue. We propose designing a sustainable system for feeding the city through the two islands, while growing a new generation that has a closer connection to food and to each other. 15

SOLITARY POPULATION; NO ORGANIZING PRINCICLE
BUZZING WITH VITALITY; WITH ORGANIZING PRINCICLE
We plan to create indoor and outdoor urban farms on the islands, which would fuel and connect its population. There are great social, environmental, economic and health benefits that are resultant of urban agriculture. The organizing principle in our design is plant – grow – prepare – share - eat which is applied at both macro and micro scales, that being the city and the community. These islands will contrast the dense urban life by providing an agro-communitarian system for a Utopian society.
