passive housing for all pelham crossing chicago courtyard chicago courtyard details integrated bandstand the wave
Passive Housing for All Design Competition Fall 2017 The Burts Pit Road affordable housing project in Northampton follows the design principles of a passive solar building. By orienting the housing units to the south, we take full advantage of the the sun’s energy to help heat and cool living spaces. A thermal mass at the base of the building stores energy during the day and that energy is released at night, keeping the units warm. A large roof overhang protects against too much solar gain during the summer months and a northern facing clerestory window increases ventilation. Passive solar design strategies limit energy usage and lower heating and cooling costs throughout the year.

Pelham Crossing
Pelham Center Proposal Fall 2017 Pelham Crossing is a sustainably designed community that is focused on creating a sense of place for the small town of Pelham, Massachusetts. It was critcal to the design that a community village be formed for members of the public to visit and enjoy. Twelve townhouses that are divided into, one, two, and three bedroom units provide housing for people of all demographics and socio-economic backgrounds. The townhouses encapsulate a village green that has been designed to connect community members to the surrounding environment. A mixed-use commercial building is also located on the eastern portion of the site at the intersection of Amherst Road and North Valley Road. A busy intersection makes it possible for small businesses to grow by attracting bypassers into Pelham Crossing. The mixed-use building will include a market and cafe, restaurant and bar, several retail spaces, and six, one-bedroom apartments. existing conditions
The building zone is selected based on the existing conditions of the site. Setback boundaries and a steep slope force the building to be placed on the eastern portion of the site.

adaptive massing
An adaptive mass reacts to the site restrictions to create a central “village green� for the town of Pelham. Views to the west are provided along with a pathway to Amethyst Brook below.
staggered housing
Staggered housing units run parallel to the site boundaies and slope down a hillside. Units run northto-south to take full advantage of the sun’s energy for passive heating and cooling purposes.
pelham crossing
Three housing units are formed into a single townhouse; one bedroom, two bedroom, and three bedroom. Each are provided with views to the north and south. A three bedroom unit is provided with a roof garden.
pelham village townhouses
A mixed-use commercial building is extended to the east and rotates towards the south to run parallel to North Valley Road. This move helps connect Pelham Crossing to the landscape and to the road.
adaptive facade
Pelham Crossing is orientated on an axis with relation to the sun. To increase the amount of daylight, the facade is pushed to the south-east and north-west. A dynamic building facade is formed and is emphasized through materiality.

Chicago Courtyard at Cabrini Green Chicago, IL Spring 2018 The ‘Chicago Courtyard Building’ was a design scheme used in housing developments for the city of Chicago in the early 1900’s following the ‘Great Chicago Fire’. It became very popular because it provided multiple means of emergency egress, which was a major concern for large housing projects. The signature U-shape provides an abundance of sunlight to all residents and easy access to a courtyard at the center. The courtyrad was used as a community gathering space and it helped to increase the flow of fresh air into apartment units. This ‘Healthy Living’ proposal blends the vernacular of the Chicago Courtyard with a contemporary design approach that also integrates sustainable strategies to improve the lives or residents at Cabrini Green.

Massing The building footprints are placed withn the ideal development location. Midrises are located at the north end of the site so that low-rise buildings are not shaded, thus maximizing daylight into all buildings.
‘Chicago Courtyard’ This familiar style is reinvented for a contemporary use at the site of Cabrini Green. The design provides each housing unit with plenty of sunlight, access to green space, and natural ventilation. An elongated southern facade improves passive design strategies.
Adapt A series of variations using the Chicago Courtyard style are created to help integrate the design into the landscape. This variation has entrances that face towards the center of the courtyard. Green spaces are created between buildings and connected by pathways.

Integrated Bandstand
at Amherst Common with Coldham & Hartman Architects Fall 2018 (People's Choice Award)
The Amhserst Business Improvement District (BID) formed a design competition to solicit ideas for a new Band Shell/ Outdoor Performance Structure on the Amherst Common. The goal was to select a preferred design and then find the funds to construct the Band Shell in a timely manner. The proposal would be subject to full design review and permitting by the Town with a final decision being made by the Town Council. In this design, the Integrated Bandshell would be built into the landscape of the town common. This project was a collaboration with Coldham & Hartman Architects of Amherst, MA.

the Wave
at University of Massachusetts Amherst Fall 2018 The University of Massachusetts is interested in expanding their existing Recreation Center to include a new aquatics facility. This project titled "the Wave" is a design proposal that offers an olympic-sized swimming pool with a diving well, a cafe and aerobics training facilities. In this design the concept was to seperate the circulation and program into two volumes that would intersect eachother, thus creating the concept of "the Wave". From the exterior, an understanding of the building and its programatic elements are revealed to draw people into the strucutre or to the center of the UMass Amherst campus.
