DOME D' DOME B U R N H A M P RIZE COMP ETITION CH ICAGO ARCH I T E CT U RE B I E N N I A L

Dome d’ dome is a playful enumeration and celebration of the past life of the St. Stephen’s church and dome. Its new life revives the value of “congregation” which the dome encompassed. Dome d’ dome renews the significance of the dome not by recreating the formal and symbolic, but creating accessible domes of levity and joy. History roots the new life of the dome. The segmental dome of St. Stephen’s is a hybrid of two pure forms –hemisphere and catenary. The hemisphere was used by Aldo Van Eyck as modernist jungle gym. To Aldo, the simplicity of the form allowed for children to use their imagination. The catenary arc was studied by Antoni Gaudi through his hanging chain models to understand the efficiency of material and load in pure compression. Interestingly, while Aldo’s domes were made for play, they were utilitarian in form. And while Gaudi’s catenary domes where utilitarian in structure, they were ornate in form. This inversion and lineage reciprocates in the new dome layers. The rigid hemispherical domes recall Aldo’s jungle gyms and the soft catenary domes recollects the studies by Gaudi. Furthermore, the wedge figuration on the inner decorative dome translates into a pivoting pattern for the new rigid domes. The structural layering of bricks of the outer dome translates into an intricate woven pattern for the new soft domes. The open oculi of each are layered to allow for climbing up and lounging between. At the top layer, one gazes at an animated projection of the dome’s life in metamorphosis. The singular becomes the multiple renewing its presence at an approachable scale and recalling its lineage. The structural and ornamental are intertwined and reconceived as armatures for animation. And the once formal and spiritual is reborn as a lively, imaginative space for the neighborhood to congregate.

The domes overlap and connect through different openings replicating the occulus, and also creating a path to climb closer to the historic dome. Each dome increases the level of complexity, making the final level a reflection of all domes on the ceiling. 07 |

This Mausoleum houses the children of Chicago, under 18, who have been victims of homicide. Situated at the site for wolfpoint tower in Chicago, which meets the river at one of the most iconic location in the city. The city bears witness to the innocent lives lost. The core elements of this design address the acoustics, the site’s 30’ drop from the street level, and the interaction with water. In executing this design we were inclined towards the ability of sound to connect or disconnect the visitor spatially. Tuning the visitors out of the city, into a state of awareness of this issue through phenomenology. Using the 30’ drop of the site, we were able to combine the procession to the acoustic agenda. The deceased enter from the bottom (dock or parking lot) and the living enter from the top, descend down to the burial spaces and then back into the city. There are deep cuts, dropping 30’ feet in height, in the building that are the paths of descent with a few doorways branching out to burial spaces and an end point. In the burial spaces, there are multiple layers of translucent curtains that absorb all sound, shunning all noise of the city and making the visitors own existence the loudest sound. The burial spaces are lit by water courtyards that people can access and walk over. The cuts themselves are lined with gravel only up to the end chambers, stairs and recessed hand-rail slits. The end chambers are rooms that gradually step down into the water, facing the city. Yet the view to the city is blocked by a wooden screen paired with translucent glass, only the view of the water below is revealed. However, the sound of the city is amplified by a special megaphone insert in the walls, revealed through the hand-rail slit, as one sits down at the steps. This is a tribute to the innocent lives lost daily within our own city.

transparent hutong OLY M P I CS V ENU E | BEIJ ING
26 |
This is an exploration of possible themes for Beijing Olympic 2022 at an abandoned industrial area. Transparent Hutong takes its lineage from a historic typology being replaced by generic downtowns for an image-hungry development that lacks the experiential richness of old Beijing, Hutongs have different levels of complexity but a key feature is their arrangement as hard shell, soft yolk. Whether it is a line of shops wrapping around 4 houses and courtyard or it is one house itself, Hutongs repeat the idea of a membrane as a larger interface to the city around at every scale. In this proposal, a hutong is redefined to meet different requirements of today’s age, namely; larger occupancy, transparency and connectivity. Transparency is met through different tools in this scenario, but the most important is the projected transparency - creating pockets and walls of cinematic projection of one part of the city to the other. Here a shop owner can project their merchandise (or perhaps their instagram feed) to the outer wall of the hutong and stay connected. This caters to the need of an iconic spectacle of the Olympics and creates something long term for the locals. This project is a preface to the next, Maxima.

Maxima is a proposal for the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic village. Integrating the locally displaced—rural and urban— communities with the Olympics’ transient population, Maxima houses a neighborhood in a field of vessels dedicated to independent actions. This field blurs the boundaries of privacy to maximize interactions among residents and surroundings. In the age of shared economies, transparent data, virtual societies, and instant communication, synergy is imperative to urban design. Accommodating two main types of interactions, representational and collaborative, mechanical cities can transform into dynamic living organisms through architecture. However, most precedents of Olympic architecture emphasize iconicism for global audience over these interactions. The host cities are embodied in stagnant yet spectacular portraits of their economic and political strengths, that soon plummet to obsolescence. Maxima uses the Olympics as an opportunity to represent the intricacies of Beijing, held dear by the local communities and with which the global communities can collaborate. This proposal is a framework extracted from historical typologies and urban setups specific to Beijing, namely hutongs and siheyuans. Exhaustive studies of relationships and organization of actions developed architectural parameters that meet the evolving social, economic, and political behaviors of the country. Everyday life in Maxima is the monument of the Olympics. The Olympic Village is no longer a device to generate a singular image of Beijing’s economic and social structure, but rather the capital city come-alive with which the world can collaborate and experience.

Shearer Studio is a small dance studio near the Ragdale Foundation. The studio is fabricated completely out of CLT, and is to serve as a private residence and performance space. My work on this project was primarily to develop the drawings and graphics with the supervision of other architects. These set of drawings were developed initially to study the thresholds of the building to see the interaction of the interior space with the prairie landscape surrounding it, and eventually became our representations of the project for various presentations and meetings. This project has yet to enter its design development phase.

carbon chapel IN STA LL AT ION | CHICAG O
64 |
Using Carbon Fiber as an architectural and structural material, this chapel explores the principles of Baroque era through today’s tools of digital fabrication. The Baroque era spread a style of architecture in the 16th century that spoke of dramatic light, experience of the user and structural integration in the design. Studies of the ceiling of Santa Catarina Church lead to the discovery of the shape of a panel that was used as a repetitive module to achieve the structural and experiential goals. The chapel is a linear structure made of overlapping modules of two different angles. These create columns and then connect at the top to create its triangular profile. The overlap creates apertures that allow light into the structure, apart from which there is an oculus in the center of the space to allow light in.

BLINDED BY DELIGHT B U R N H A M P RIZE COMP ETITION| CHICAGO A R CH I TECTU R E BI EN N I A L
70 |
Vitruvius wrote that good buildings should embody “firmness,” “commodity,” and “delight.” Because engineers and developers now largely control the conversation over “firmness” and “commodity,” architects only maintain real control over “delight.” “Delight” can be interpreted as following our aesthetic impulses, tying architecture to “art.” Contemporary architecture consistently follows its aesthetic impulse. However, our “art” suffers from overindulgence. The art of architecture is infatuated with patterns, systems, tools and technologies. We design beautifully decorated boxes which can perform as structural and sustainable skins. We run wild with parametrics to combine uniqueness with efficiency. We obsess about complexity to the state of delight, but in our euphoria we ignore the political state of architecture. As with a poorly seasoned dish, our overindulgence results in buildings only showing the sweet side without any sour. The unseasoned side to “delight” is political. The political side of “delight” ties architecture to humanity by challenging our cultural needs and desires. Beyond symbolism, the politics of architecture involves having influence with communities, governance, and society. This state of the art of architecture is represented by the complexity of self-referential patterns indeterminately defining our cities. Each pattern overlaid is a translation of modern Chicago building details forming the skyline of Chicago. The patterns are generated using a digital scripts based on the original detail’s ordering system. The layering of patterns, yet lack of depth portrays the superficial approach to validating architecture. We stand beside our patterns, systems and rules to justify “firmness” and “commodity,” but we also hide behind patterns, systems and rules to substantiate “delight.” There is a veil over our eyes, but the image of our city is the same.

spongecloud E X P LOR AT ION
74 |
SpongeCloud, a means of balancing water levels between flooded and water-stressed areas, is a proposal that can be deployed worldwide to communities suffering from waterrelated issues. The SpongeCloud will soak up water, and carry it as a cloud to areas in need, through an efficient, automated process, mimicking that of a natural cloud. This symbiotic relationship between flood-prone and water-stressed areas will help improve living conditions in both places. Water supply is one of the biggest problems our planet faces today. This free resource is slowly becoming a political asset. The SpongeCloud is an affordable piece of architectural infrastructure that can be used worldwide. It would cover the minimum distance between flood-prone areas (such as river basins of Mexico, or at the Indus river in Pakistan) and carry the water in vapor form to areas facing droughts, and lack of water, a common phenomenon in areas such as Mexico, Morocco, Yemen and Pakistan. SpongeCloud can solve a wide range of problems, from lack of water for agriculture, to coastal flooding, and much more. The SpongeCloud mimics clouds in every stage of its process. A sponge at the base absorbs water, and with a copper plate attached to this and at the connection of each panel absorbs and concentrates solar radiation, causing the evaporation of water. Through evaporation, water is purified and concentrated inside the structure. The water vapor is less dense than air (0.5g/m3) and thus lifts the lightweight structure. A drone, also attached at the base, takes the role of navigating this cloud to areas in need. Minimal energy is used in transporting water using a single structure, enough to provide 200 liters of water to a village of 100 people. The behavior of the cloud is similar to a kite; using as much kinetic energy because of its shape and structure, as possible.

Having minimal energy needs, this proposal can be used globally, regardless of the economical capacities of the host countries. It uses low cost materials; translucent polymer fabric, a copper plate with foam, and very simple drone technology. The solution is accessible for everyone, bringing new hope and prosperity to all water stressed communities, rethinking the future of water for everyone.

Homes signify independence and can express individual personalities. Unfortunately, affordable housing is often subjugated by a sameness in form, planning and envelope in efforts to be cost efficient. This often leaves a generic shell which is decorated with personal effects. Our design seeks to create spaces that exude distinctive character through efficient planning while promoting collaboration amongst the youthful inhabitants. This community offers two different unit plans to allow for choice in living styles. Both typologies are organized with adjacent bathrooms and kitchen areas to keep plumbing lines concentrated. The arrangement of modules also considers adjacency of plumbed spaces for mechanical efficiency as well as noise and privacy. In addition to the efficiency in planning, modules are arranged to create a series of shared courtyards. Each courtyard is shared by two or three people to allow for both collaboration and some personalization of each area. All individuals will share two community areas which anchor the site and are easily accessible. Modules are both efficient and unique. Each module is expressed through changes in form and texture. Efficient plans are paired with a variety of roof slopes and shingle patterns. The variety of roof slopes creates an enhanced interior space that can be further personalized by the new dweller. The exterior of each module – while similar in material – will vary in shingle patterning outwardly expressing their individuality. Simple means are used to generate distinctive housing types. The collection of modules exemplifies the diversity of independent people living, collaborating, and aspiring together, making a statement that tiny homes can have big personality.

Perry Avenue Farm is a refreshing, safe, and invigorating facility in the south side of Chicago that aims to provide the local community with healthy food and career building opportunities. In keeping with this spirit, the H2O Garden seeks to preserve the site’s natural and emotional qualities, and connect it to the larger context. H2O Garden houses a market, classrooms, artist studios and galleries, all of which are stitched together through an aquaponics system. Using shipping containers as the primary building material, the design explores container architecture with the help of a secondary enclosure. While the aquaponics system caters to the program and the circulation of the spaces, the containers’ layout gives flexibility among programs and spaces. Situated at 57th and Perry Avenue, the site has many features to offer, such as views, openness, and approachability. Circulation around this area is aided by numerous bus stops along State Street, and the red and green line on Garfield boulevard. The role of H2O garden is agricultural, institutional and communal. These key aspects of sustainability geared the project towards the use of efficient and renewable systems. The building and site harvests rainwater for most of the agricultural functions. The floors are activated by a constant loop of hot and cold water, while the overall building is wrapped by a responsive facade that controls light, heat radiation and ventilation. Points of attraction and lines of sight develop the design with the purpose of bringing the community together and making this area the point of social gathering. With a variety of spaces and activities blending into each other, H2O Garden invites the community to create, perform, learn, and grow together.
