The farm is linear, with plant beds leading the flow of water from the top of the building to the fish tank at the bottom. Library program is dispersed along the water-trail, allowing users to follow the garden through dedicated book sections for children, cooking, science, and construction. *

The Fair Haven branch of the New Haven Public Library requires a mutli-program adaptative reuse of the historic building. This project incorporates a small aquaponics farm providing urban food education and new revenue for the library system.

Challenged to define and house an intentional community, this project is a living-lab for biologists seeking to reforest America’s cities.
The organization of the lightweight structures follows the allowances of the trees, building around root systems and canopies. The perfunctory needs of the researchers (eating, sleeping, studying) are scattered and reconnected by circulation webs around the site. New connections between the laboratory and the kitchen are established in visible appliance utility corridors.

Designed for two families under the same roof, the “ribbon” of circulation in this house divides the public and private zones, delineating what is “mine” and what is “ours.”
Space-saving techniques, generous storage, and everyday paths of travel were key considerations for the internal organization and furniture scale of the home.

Some drawings from Peter Eisenman’s course in his final semester teaching at the YSOA. Drawings trace buildings from the architectural canon through gemoetric and formal lenses, looking for pattern and meaning in proportion, position, and scale.

In a farming region of Bangladesh sits this agricultural school named after the “bumper crop,” an abnormally productive harvest. More than just good harvest luck, the bumper school embraces productivities of other kinds, harnessing the flow of wind and rain to cool the building and subsidize water use.
Biogenic materials (wood, bamboo, rammed earth) support a continuous outdoor corridor and gathering spaces, coupled with semi-enclosed classrooms.

Commonly regarded as New York City’s “back of the fridge,” Secaucus’ industrial landscape holds many abandoned buildings ripe for re-use.
This project looks at one such building, the Empire Hotel, seeking to convert its existing hotel-sized rooms into long-term S.R.O. housing. Here, re-use is taken seriously and trickles down even into the smallest scales, where forgotten and obsolete products of New Jersey’s logistics network are given new life as construction components and furniture.
