01 PROJECT: 5.000 SF Clifton, Cincinnati Miami University Second Year Studio Spring 2011 Professors: J E Elliot Murali Paranandi Nazanim Kohododad Kimberly Martin
CLIFTON LIBRARY DESIGN INTENT: Weave the everyday lives of community members into the building function, blending seamlessly into the urban context. Clifton Library is a 5,000 SF project based in Cincinnati, OH that weaves the everyday lives of community members into the fabric of the building. It began with a study of the character of Clifton and the way that architecture could emanate and propagate its atmosphere. It is a neighborhood focal point, allowing people to come into contact with it through a variety of experiences, ranging from casual and brief to deliberate and lasting.

02 Mixed-Use Building Northside, Cincinnati Miami University Fourth Year Studio Fall 2013 Professor: Dr. Regan Henry
NORTHSIDE DESIGN INTENT: Design a building that experientially belongs in its neighborhood. It employs historic research and concrete spatial studies to truly learn the spirit of the place.
Northside was a semester-long project that began with intensive historic research that uncovered the ways in which the past has influenced the present urban environment. It culminated in the design of a building that captures the spirit of the neighborhood in its location, program, and aesthetic.
Emotive diagrams (pictured) study the physical patterns built up over time to understand the neighborhood’s present character.

ZEITGEIST Building Design: Mixed-Use building located in the heart of Northside, Cincinnati. It is part brew-pub, farm co-op, produce market, and residential space. The facade echoes the proportions and organization of the neighborhood while the use of board-formed concrete, wood, aluminum, and glass place it in the present time. The result is a building that belongs in its place in both space and time - communicating a sense of modernity that has grown from the neighborhood itself rather than a transplanted, fabricated newness.

03 Single Family Residence Pyramid Hill Statue Park Hamilton, Ohio Miami University Fourth Year Studio Spring 2014 Professor: John Becker
HOUSE ON PYRAMID HILL
This project is a single-family residence located within Pyramid Hill Statue Park. The design method was an organic, layered process performed on a single board over the course of eight weeks.
It began with a study of the park, identifying its character, organization, and features. The site was chosen, and the process turned to solidifying the views, circulation routes, landscaping, and cartography into a home. The methodology and intention of the design resulted in a residence that is deeply-rooted in the fabric of the park, yet carving out a private, intimate dwelling for the family that inhabits it.
