Based on the belief that children need a physically and emotionally secure environment to experiment and learn, I designed an elementary school based on a series of layers to help students be centered and focused on individual exploration. A series of spaces leading to the smaller classes also allow for collaboration and community through natural elements and landscaping.

Analysis of how the site connects to the city revealed a primary axis on the west edge. The form draws in the path, allowing people the opportunity to move through or into the building. Circulation surrounds the atrium, creating a plaza on lower floors and connecting disparate elements. Public spaces weave into through the business and residential elements.

Based on various meetings with Union Elementary School, the studio designed an outdoor classroom and play structure for the students, responding with a dynamic form to inspire play. Mirroring the walls, with the joints of one elevation at the deck and the joints of the other at the roof, a whimsical form was generated, with a shifting helix wall and hammock in the front.

In order to meet the needs of refugees as they resettled in Berlin, two paths anchored various programmatic elements, providing a spine of public spaces off of which private spaces were organized. The dual axis also referenced the train running through the site. Pods were stacked along the paths, each pod designed to help facilitate collaboration and provide upward social mobility.

Focusing on the cycles within cooking and learning helped connect the various parts of the program. A greenhouse and wastewater treatment system generated a flow of matter and energy. A curvilinear form visually linked spaces, as well as allowing for ceiling height variation based on diverse needs and spatial types.

Site research and a programming session with artists informed the design of an artist residency. The main building contains exhibition space, several studios (including recording, metalworking, woodworking, and painting), performance space, and a restaurant, all of which are woven together by a series of interstitial spaces. Living pods are nestled among the trees at the back of the site.

After initial research of building techniques and program in the Philippines, a team traveled to Kawit to collaborate with local government officials and design professionals on the design of a new birthing center built in response to destruction caused by Typhoon Yolanda. After a rapid design phase, construction began, and was finished by the local builders after the team left.
