THE SHORT FILM INSTITUTE IS EMBEDDED INTO ITS SITE IN DOWNTOWN HOUSTON AND RESPONDS TO THE NATURAL LIGHT, SURROUNDING BUILDINGS, AND USERS OF THE SPACE. IT ACCOMODATES 200 STUDENTS IN 32,000SQFT. IT HOUSES SOUND BOOTHS, GREEN SCREEN ROOF, EDITING SUITES FOR THE STUDENTS. THERE ARE FLEXIBLE SPACES FOR THE STUDENTS TO DISPLAY THEIR WORK AS WELL AS UNIQUELY CREATE STUDIO SPACES. A SEPARATE BUILDING HOUSES THE AUDITORIUM AND SINKS INTO THE GROUND, WHILE THE MAIN INSTITUTE RAISES UP THREE STORIES WITH PUBLIC ACCESS TO A GREEN ROOF ABOVE THE AUDITORIUM. THE AUDITORIUM IS A SOLID CONCRETE ENCLOSURE, SURROUNDED BY GLASS, WHILE THE MAIN BUILDING WHICH HOUSES THE STUDENTS HAS MORE OF A TRANSPARENT INTERIOR IN CONTRAST TO ITS COUNTERPART. FILM STUDENTS WHO OCCUPY THE MAIN BUILDING ARE ENCOURAGED TO INTERACT AND FIND INSPIRATION BY LARGE OPEN COMMON SPACES, A LEARNING STAIR, SWINGING PARTITIONS, AND CLASSROOMS WITH FLOOR TO CEILING CURTAIN WALLS. THE BUILDING IS COMPRISED OF WOOD, REINFORCED COMMUNICATES THE DIVERSITY AND INTEGRATION OF MATERIALS.

MEDIA CONNECTION: MEDIA IS ANY FORM OF COMMUNICATING A MESSAGE TO A LARGER AUDIENCE. FILM IS A VISUAL TYPE OF MEDIA TO SEND A STORYLINE TO ITS AUDIENCE. PROGRAM: INDEPENDENT SHORT FILM INSTITUTE GOAL: AIM TOWARDS COLLEGE STUDENTS PURSUING THE SHORT FILM INDUSTRY INCLUDES: FILM COURSE CLASSROOMS [EDITING, SOUND DESIGN, SCREEN WRITING, NEW MEDIA, POST PRODUCTION, CAMERA & LIGHTING], GREEN SCREEN ROOM, EQUIPMENT STORAGE, EDITING SUITES, ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICES, AND PUBLIC AUDIOTORIUM

AUDIENCE DERIVES OPINION
P R O C E S S WE WERE FIRST ASKED TO CREATE A DIAGRAM SHOWING WHAT WE BELIEVED TO DEFINE MEDIA. THE GRAPHICS LISTED EXPLAIN HOW MEDIA IS A VISUAL TRANSLATION AND HOW IT EVENTUALLY LEAD US TO FOCUS OUR DESIGN ON A FILM INSTITUTE THAT HIGHLIGHTS THE VISUAL REPRESENTATION OF MEDIA. THE DIAGRAMS BELOW THEN EXPRESS THE THREE ELEMENTS WE FOCUSED ON WHILE DESIGNING. THE VIDEO CAPTURES THEN SHOW THE TOP DIAGRAM WE FILMED IN STOP MOTION AND PRODUCED ON YOUTUBE.

THE SHORT FILM INSTITUTE HOUSES A PUBLIC THEATER AS WELL AS A PUBLIC OUTDOOR AREA FACING THE PUBLIC LIGHT RAIL. THE INSTITUTE ALSO HAS A CAFE, MOVING EXHIBITION SPACES AND OFFICES ON THE FIRST FLOOR. THE SECOND AND THIRD FLOOR OFFER MORE PRIVATE AREAS WITH STUDIO SPACES, GREEN ROOMS, SOUND ROOMS, AND A ROOF TOP GARDEN FOR THE STUDENTS TO FILM IN.

IN THE DESIGNING OF THE PROJECT, THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE SCHOOL AND THE DOWNTOWN WAS HIGHLY EVALUTATED. THE PUBLIC THEATER AND PUBLIC GARDEN ARE SEEN DIRECTLY FROM THE LIGHT RAIL. THERE ARE MANY FEATURES OF THE INSTITUTE THAT PROMOTE THIS INTERACTION OF PEOPLE.
SAWTOOTH ROOF ALLOWS NATURAL LIGHTING TO COME INTO THE INTERIOR FROM THE NORTHEAST
AUTOMATED VERTICAL LOUVERS ALLOW ENOUGH NATURAL LIGHT INTO THE SPACE WITHOUT OVER HEATING THE INTERIOR
A LARGE ATRIUM LETS LIGHT INTO THE LOWER FLOORS OF THE INSTITUTE WINDOWS ALONG THE WALL WASHES THE WALL WITH LIGHT OPEN PLAN OFFICES ALLOWS SUNLIGHT TO MOVE FURTHER INTO THE INTERIOR OF THE BUILDING
AN OPEN PLAN IN THE INSTITUTE WORKS WELL FOR AIR CIRCULATION
LONGITUDINA
A GREEN ROOF PROLONGS THE LIFE OF HEATING, VENTILATION, AND HVAC SYSTEMS
GREEN ROOFS RETAIN 70-90% OF THE PRECIPITATION THAT FALLS ON THEM
GREEN ROOFS PLAY A ROLE IN REDUCING GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS
EXTENDED OVERHANGS KEEP THE INTERIOR OF THE BUILDING COOLER AND OFFER SHADE TO PEDESTRIANS
THE REFLECTION POOL SURROUNDING THE THEATER IS A SOURCE OF EVAPORATIVE COOLING
THE SUNKEN THEATER ALLOWS THE GROUND TO SERVE AS INSULATION

V A R I S C O THE SPACE BETWEEN INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR, AND THE THRESHOLD BETWEEN PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SPACES CAN BE APPROACHED BY MANY DIFFERENT ARCHITECTURAL ELEMENTS. I HAVE CHOSEN TO EXPLORE THIS THRESHOLD BY CREATING AN “EXTERIOR ROOM” THAT ALLOWS THE CONNECTION BETWEEN INTERIOR SPACE AND EXTERIOR SPACE AND THE CONNECTION BETWEEN PUBLIC SPACE AND PRIVATE SPACE.
A D A P T I V E THE VARISCO BUILDING, LOCATED ON THE INTERSECTION OF 24TH STREET AND MAIN STREET IN DOWNTOWN BRYAN, TEXAS IS CURRENTLY AN OFFICE BUILDING THAT UNSUCCESSFULLY DEMONSTRATES THIS CONNECTIVE LINK BETWEEN PUBLIC AND PRIVATE ARCHITECTURAL SPACES. IT’S HIDDEN ENTRANCE AND LIFELESS PLANAR FAÇADE ALSO IS UNSUCCESSFUL AT EXPLORING THE THRESHOLD BETWEEN INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR SPACES. IN ORDER TO SUCCESSFULLY CREATE A LINK BETWEEN PUBLIC AND PRIVATE, THE CURRENT OFFICE BUILDING’S PROGRAM MUST BE REEVALUATED. A NEW PROGRAM OF A GROCERY STORE ON THE FIRST FLOOR WITH APARTMENTS AND AMENITIES ABOVE FOR THE BUILDING MUST BE ESTABLISHED TO CREATE THIS LINK. THIS CREATES AN INTIMACY GRADIENT, FROM MOST PUBLIC TO MOST PRIVATE IN THE VERTICAL DIRECTION BY FLOOR. THE FIRST FLOOR WILL ACCOMMODATE AND EXPLORE THE LINK BETWEEN PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SPACES AND THE TRANSITION BETWEEN THEM. ON THE NORTH EASTERN SIDE THE BUILDING, A GROCERY STORE WITH A CAFÉ IS PROPOSED. ON THE SOUTH WESTERN PART OF THE BUILDING, A PROPOSED LEASING OFFICE FOR THE RESIDENTS IS LOCATED. ON THE NORTH EASTERN SIDE OF THE BUILDING, OR CORNER POINT OF THE BUILDING IS WHERE MOST PUBLIC AND PRIVATE INTERACT. IN THIS SPACE A LOUNGE AREA IS LOCATED WITH VERTICAL CIRCULATION TO THE APARTMENTS ABOVE. THE PLACEMENT OF THESE SPACES CREATES AN INTIMACY GRADIENT AS WELL.

B A S Q U I A T THIS TWO STORY, MODERN GALLERY LOCATED IN DALLAS, TEXAS FEATURES ARTWORKS BY THE WORLD RENOWNED ARTIST, JEAN-MICHEL BASQUIAT. BASQUIAT’S LIFE WAS SHORT LIVED, BUT INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN. HIS STARDOM BEGAN WITH WALL DRAW GRAFFITI IN THE URBAN JUNGLE, NEW YORK CITY. HE QUICKLY ROSE TO FAME IN HIS TWENTIES, MEETING CELEBRITIES AND OTHER FAMOUS ARTISTS OF THE 1980S, THAT DIRECTLY IMPACTED HIS ARTWORK. BASQUIAT’S ARTWORK DISPLAYS HIS POLITICAL VIEWS AND HIS POSITION ON THE AMERICAN SOCIAL SOCIETY.
c i c l i l b ub
u p
L O C A T I O N THE LOCATION OF THE BASQUIAT ART MUSEUM IS IN THE HEART OF THE DESIGN DISTRICT OF DALLAS, TEXAS. THIS LOCATION IS A PRIME SPOT FOR A BASQUIAT GALLERY, DUE TO THE CONTEXT OF BASQUIAT AS AN ARTIST. THE SITE SHARES SIMILIAR FEATURES SUCH AS THAT IT IS MUCH LIKE THE URBAN ENVIRONMENT BASQUIAT DID MOST OF HIS GRAFFITI WORK.
PLACEMENT
P R O C E S S AFTER STUDYING BASQUIAT, ONE WOULD REALIZE HIS INTENTIONS OF RELATING HIS PAINTING TO THE HUMAN FORM. THIS IS WHY THE STUDY TO THE LEFT WITH MODELS SHOWING THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE PAINTINGS TO HUMAN FORMS. IT ALSO EXPRESSES THE NEED FOR NATURAL LIGHTING IN A GALLERY.

M U S E U M THIS MUSEUM HOUSES UNIQUE ART PIECES THAT SHOWCASE BASQUIAT’S LIFESTYLE. IT IS REFLECTIVE OF HIS DISTINCT PERSONALITY AND IS DIRECTLY DERIVED FROM THE WORKS OF ART HE COMPLETED. HIS PALIMPSEST STYLE OF LAYERING PAINT ALLOWS VIEWERS TO SEE WHAT WAS ONCE THERE BEFORE. THIS IS CONVEYED WITH THE LAYERING OF TWO DOMINATE WALL FORMS THROUGHOUT THE BUILDING. “L-SHAPE ” AND “STRAIGHT LINE” WALLS MOLD THE INTERIOR SPACES OF THE MUSEUM AND DIVIDE THE GALLERIES WITHIN. TRANSPARENCY AND MATERIALS THROUGHOUT THE BUILDING WERE CAREFULLY CHOSEN TO ALLOW THE VIEWER TO EXPERIENCE THE BUILDING THE SAME WAY BASQUIAT INTENDED THE AUDIENCE TO EXPERIENCE HIS ARTWORK. THE MUSEUM FUSES NEW YORK’S GRAFFITI SUBCULTURE WITH THE ELITE ART SOCIETY THAT BASQUIAT QUICKLY BECAME A PART OF.

THE VOLUMETRIC SPACES WITHIN THE GALLERY WERE DERIVED FROM A SIMPLE RECTANGULAR PRISM.
THE GALLERY IS ARRANGED INTO FOUR MAJOR SPACES: PUBLIC, GALLERY, GALLERY GARDEN, AND GARDEN.
EACH AREA WITHIN THE GALLERY WAS PUSHED AND PULLED FROM THE ORIGINAL SINGLE PRISM TO CREATE A HIERARCHY OF SPACES.
VISUAL PATHS GUIDE AND INTRIGUE VIEWERS TO THE MYSTERY OF WHAT LIES BEYOND THE LAYERS OF WALLS.
THE CIRCULATION IS DESIGNED AROUND AN ARCHITECTURAL PROMENADE; AN ELEMENT KEY IN DEVELOPING MOVEMENT THROUGH SPACES.
THE PATH THROUGHOUT THE GALLERY REFLECTS BASQUIAT’S LIFE BY SHOWING HIS ARTWORK IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER.

IN THIS PROJECT, I WAS GIVEN A SELECTED SITE ON A GOLF COURSE IN BRYAN, TX, AND WAS REQUIRED TO CREATE A SKATE PARK AND A BUILDING THAT ACCOMPANIES IT. THE SKATE PARK TAKES ELEMENTS FROM A SUPER POWER I HAD TO MANUFACTURE. MY SUPER POWER WAS SUPER FOCUS, HYPERSENSITIVITY AND A UNIQUE PERCEPTION OF TIME. WE WERE TO CREATE ABSTRACT ITERATIONS TO PLACE IN THE PARK IN CERTAIN WAY TO EXEMPLIFY OUR SUPERPOWER. EACH ITERATION EMBODIES CERTAIN ASPECTS OF MY SUPERPOWER.

L A Y O U T THE SKATEPARK DESIGN IS DERIVED FROM FILM WITH AN EMPHASIS ON THE ASPECT OF FOCUS. THE TOPOGRAPHY OF THE SITE IS ORGANIZED BY THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE USING THAT AREA. THE OUTER RIMS ARE DESIGNED FOR MORE EXPERIENCED SKATERS AND DECREASE IN SKILL TOWARD THE CENTER. EACH CHANGE OF ELEVATION SIGNIFIES A CHANGE IN SKILL LEVEL. THE CENTER OF THE PARK IS MOST CONCENTRATED WITH PEOPLE, JUST HOW A CAMERA FOCUSES THE SHOT IN THE CENTER. THE PLACEMENT OF THE SKATEPARK ELEMENTS ARE DERIVED FROM FILM EDITING AS EXPRESSED IN THE DIAGRAM ON THE RIGHT. EACH ELEMENT IS PLACED FROM WHERE THE DERIVED DESIGN IN ELEVATION INTERSECTS WHEN GRID LINES ARE EXPRESSED. EACH ELEMENT IS ALSO DERIVED FROM THE SAME CONCEPT OF FOCUSING IN FILM.

THEIR PLACEMENT IS DEPENDANT ON THE GRID SYSTEM CREATED FROM THE OVERALL DESIGN FOCUS.
COMPETITION & ORGANIZAITON WORKS
B U I L D BUILD IS AN ORGANIZAITION AIMED AT UNIFYING THE STUDENT BODY AT TEXAS A&M UNIVERSITY BY UNDERTAKING A LARGE SCALE SERVICE PROJECT. THE SERVICE PROJECT THAT I WAS IN CHARGE OF ,WHILE BEING ON THE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION TEAM OF THE ORGANIZATION, REQUIRED THE DESIGN DOCUMENTATION OF A SHIPPING CONTAINER FABRICATED AS A MEDICAL UNIT. THE FOUR UNITS
THOMAZEAU, HAITI
DOLORES, HONDURAS | NO NEAR BY HOSPITALS
LOCATION OF MEDICAL UNIT | TEN MILE RADIUS OF NEAREST HOSPITALS
LA PAZ, BOLIVIA
MANTA, COLUMBIA | NO NEARBY HOSPITALS
S E R V I C E THE FOUR SHIPPING CONTAINERS ARE APART OF A SERIES OF TWELEVE CONTAINERS. EACH CONTAINER REPRESENTS ONE OF THE VICTIMS OF THE BONFIRE TRADEGY AT TEXAS A&M UNIVERSITY. THIS PROJECT ALLOWS STUDENTS ALL ACROSS THE TEXAS A&M CAMPUS TO COME TOGETHER TO WORK ON A SINGLE SELFLESS SERVICE PROJECT. THE FOUR CONTAINERS WILL BE SENT TO: THOMAZEAU HAITI, DOLORES, HONDURAS, MANTA, COLUMBIA, AND LA PAZ, BOLIVA. ALL LOCATIONS WITH LITTLE ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE LOCATIONS.
A R R A N G E THE ORGANIZATION WAS DONATED FOUR SHIPPING CONTAINERS TO USE. USING A SHIPPING CONTAINER RESTRICTED THE AMOUNT OF SPACE ALLOWED FOT THE DESIGN. PRIVACY WANTED TO BE INCORPORATED INTO THE DESIGN TO ALLOW FOR PATIENT AND PRACTICE INTERACTION. IT IS THE MOST PRIVATE INTERACTION, SO IT IS FURTHEST AWAY FROM THE ENTERANCE. MOVING THE EXTERIOR WALL CLOSER ALLOWS THE THRESHOLD TO CHANGE. IT ALLOWS THE PUBLIC TO BE SHEILDED FROM THE EXTERIOR BEFORE ENTERING INTO THE INTERIOR OF THE SHIPPING CONTAINER. CIRCULATION WAS KEY IN THE LIMITED SPACE. THERE SHOULD BE A NATURAL FLOW FROM THE FRONT OF THE CONTAINER TO THE REAR OF THE CONTAINER. THE SPACING ALSO PROVIDES CLEARANCE FOR A STRETCHER TO ACCESS THE PRIVATE TREATMENT AREA AS WELL. AS ONE PROCEEDS FROM THE FRONT TO THE BACK OF THE CONTAINER, THE INTERACTION BETWEEN PEOPLE DECREASES, AS DISPLAYED IN THE BOTTOM GRAPHIC. THE MOST FREQUENTED AREA BEING IN THE FRONT OF CONTAINER.

BEING APART OF THE DESIGN TEAM, I OVERSAW THE CONSTRUCTION CARRIED OUT AS WELL AS LENDING A HAND IN CONSTRUCTING THE MEDICAL UNITS. THESE UNITS WILL IMPACT THE PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITIES OF THE COUNTRIES THAT DESPARATELY NEED THEM. BEING APART OF THE PROJECT IS SOMETHING THAT I WILL TRULY TAKE MANY THINGS AWAY FROM.
