The Market on Main in Springerville Az, is designed to be a flexible public gathering space. This market is located in the largest park in Springerville, a small town in Az. The Market on Main plays on the farming history of the region, using an open air shed typology to create a comfortable gathering space in this harsh climate. To combat the highs and lows of the region insulated thermal mass walls in case the shed roof. This shed roof has sky lights, to allow for solar gain in the winter. The large garage like doors are designed to let light in when closed in the winter and shade the area bellow when closed in the summer. This allows for a multitude of uses during the majority of the year.

The J12 Center for Community Engagement uses the angles of the summer and winter solstice and the spring equinox to create a unique ordering system, relying on light to define spatial and programmatic relationships. These gathering spaces bring the opportunities for festivals, performances, and markets to Reserve, New Mexico, a small town with a steady population loss and poverty. This opportunity for community is brought out into the land, an old grassing field, by introducing check dams that double as a boardwalk .Using check dams as a foundation for a lifted boardwalk, erasion is slowed allowing native plant life to repopulated the area. Small gathering spaces scattered through out the boardwalks allow for the program to be expanded. Park rangers and enthusiastic community members could lead youth, families, or seniors on nature walks and curate activities focused on the rehabilitation of the land. This benefits both the rehabilitation effort and the community in need of social programs.

The Block aims to maximize social interactions and nurture the unique downtown Tucson culture this project aims to synthesize passive cooling strategies, social programming and standardized construction methods to create low-income dwelling in downtown Tucson. Downtown Tucson's urban fabric is woven with inequitable distribution of public space for all socioeconomic backgrounds. To promote social inclusion for all to interact and form relationships the mixed us complex offers free public spaces such a shaded plaza, library, and gallery. Shared
community spaces, laundry rooms, and kitchens are placed throughout the complex in an effort to create a tight-nit residential community. Sliding doors and windows blur the line between in side and out, and give a sense of ownership allowing occupants to experience. These units sit on a modularized w-section super frame that also support the louvers made of stretched canvas and aluminum allows for a dynamic skin providing shade to public spaces. This parts to whole structural system engages the street providing equitable public space within the project..

CiC
The will demonstrates the ability for architecture to positively impact the rapidly changing world by synthesizing active and passive strategies, and user experience to encourage discovery. Discovery through demonstration and collaboration was prompted by tiering views, demonstration of systems, and expanding the user group. This project embodies my passionate view on life as a cycle of energies. The first law of thermodynamics, the Law of Energy Conservation states: energy can neither be created nor destroyed; energy can only be transferred or changed from one form to another. This basic idea influenced the skin, building materials, passive and active thermal comfort strategies and programmatic lay out of the CiC. I believe by synthesizing the need to remove or add heat helps create programmatic layouts that are inherently social. This is seen in the tiering floors of the CiC, which allow for stack effect while also creating visual and auditory connections. I believe I will create ethical architecture if I continue an iterative design process that seeks a balance between the physics of our universe and the phenomenon of human perception.

USER GROUP EXPANSION Incorporating native plant walls and vertical farms into the architecture created an opportunity for collaboration with the college of agriculture, environmental studies, and ecology. Reaching out into disciplines beyond the border of our site expands the user group, bringing new ideas into the CiC. To allow for increased access to the site I am proposing the current sun link station on 2nd and olive, a congested intersection be moved onto the site. A bike path, bike storage and lockers were incorporated into the existing context.
