1.3 THE FUNNEL ROME, ITALY DESIGN VI SPRING 2017

The Funnel, a monograph superimposed on an abandoned plaza, located in the “Flaminio” District, situated on the outskirts of Rome. This project attempts to coalesce and synthesize an existing space, consequential to uneven urban growth, by creating the focal point of a plaza. The funnel is a modern and dynamic space, inside the walls of a now, defunct area. In relation to one of the most recent initiatives in addressing the disparity between the city centre of Rome and its peripheral areas, a number of warehouses (emergent from former military industrial bases) would be transformed into a multi-faceted, multi-functional social hub. This would agglutinate the district of Flaminio. During the execution of realizing this scheme, the proposal would create minimum impact on the site and provide key programmatic elements, by fitting them into an elevated box, in the result of enhancing the potential of becoming a new city centre, offering the potentiality of creating an iconic reaction in contrast to the post-industrial area. At the same time, optimizing the use of surrounding views. In reference to the street grids that enclose the MAXXI Museum, the box proposal would connect the broken urban fabric by the use of escalators. The project is a comprehensive proposal of a multi-functional plaza. Rather than a collection of refurbished buildings (as seen in previous competition proposals), it is a sequence of informal and formal meeting areas, linked by the aforementioned escalators where people can flow in and out of. The street level of the Military Barracks, the central point of the project, would have direct access to the “box” through elevators and escalators inside one of the three refurbished historic buildings. Coherently, public areas for large crowds would be oriented toward the very end of the barracks, which serves as a space for concerts and other festivities. The roofed areas become more residentially driven programs, such as markets and coffee shops. 40

ZONNING

The existing condition of the site features via Guido Reni, a street that is 50% functional for vehicular circulation and 50% pedestrian friendly. Given the lack of interest for this street to become a grand promenade, not only the street seems too congested but it lacks accessibility to most buildings since most of the properties are walled or fenced.

By pinpointing the axis of the via Guido Reni and the important landmarks in which is a spine of, one can start seeing this street as a promenade. Perhaps this axis can become a more pedestrian friendly area, since the end of the street connects to a pedestrian-only bridge.

Late1800s

1920s

1930s - 1940s

In the Late 1800’s Flaminio District was mostly used as a site for training of the soldiers. Military barracks were constructed as a means to have shelters for the Italian Military.

As a result of the rise of power of the Fascist party, Benito Mussolini was key contributor for the development of Flaminio District. Sport venues were constructed for the 1920’s Italian Olympics, today known as Foro Mussolini.

Residential development boomed in 1930’s and 1940’s

AXES

PLAZA

By hypothesizing a “fenceless” via Guido Reni, there is vast opportunity for people to be filtered into different areas of high concentration for crowd. In this case, the Military barracks would be proposed site.

The Funnel absorbs potential for urban activation in axes point to different urban areas. Escalators serve as link of communities. A Plaza. The escalators interrupt the regular urban space to filter people coming from multi directions, of multi purposes. Flaminio district consists of artefacts of different eras such as the military barracks during the 1800’s, Foro Mussolini during the 1930’s and Olympic Village in 1960’s. Funnel respects and get them inserted into the urban context independently and activate value of a specific region.

1950s

Modern Flaminio

In the 1950’s Flaminio District proliferate into a more dense town.

Olympic Village was developed for the 1960’s Italian Olympics. Residences were made as well as stadiums and roofed sporting venues such as Palazetto dello Sport.

Modern Flaminio features recently developed infrastructures and landmarks as a means to revitalize the area. On one side the Ponte della musica was built in order to connect the east side of Flaminio to the Foro Mussolini. On the other side, we can see architectural landmarks such as state of the art MAXXI museum and Parco della Musica. 43

1.5 ITHACA ROWING CENTER ITHACA, NEW YORK DESIGN IV SPRING 2016

Amongst the activities the city of Ithaca offers, rowing on the inlet is one of the best ways to enjoy the precious essence of the landscape. Located in the Ithaca inlet, the Ithaca Rowing Center aims to both create an intersecting point for aspiring athletes, seasoned crew, and Ithacan residents. Located in the inlet island, along the lake, the Cayuga water trail leads the visitor to have an unexpected encounter to the Center, which itself acts like an experience where visitors can experience frames to the city of Ithaca from other heights. As the spectator enters the buildings, they are already experiencing magnificent views to the inlet. This same strategy of framing views is applied to private and public program such as the erg room, locker room, cafe, and observation deck.

2.1 Theater

BALEAL - PORTUGAL SUMMER 2017 Extending on a dramatic and transcendent landscape in Baleal, the Theater catalyzes new realities, imaginations and performances. The aim is to interact and engage with the landscape, the sky, the sea, and the existing artifacts, allowing the Theater to be activated by new networks between people,landscape, history and spectacle. Creating an open and interactive hub, the proposal introduces the Theater as a microcosms, a mini city generating spectacles where both the actors and the visitors produce and perform and where the nature becomes a sublime backdrop. The theater becomes an alternate way of reflecting on the beauty of the ruins and the nature contemplating the relationship between people and nature. The theater building is integrated into the landscape by contrast, it is carefully placed on the peninsula inspired by the footprints of the ruins, and therefore nourishing an intimate relationship with them. Floating on the ruins and the landscape, the Theater participates with history and nature, reactivating the ruins as a monument. The program layers are open and flexible for events and human activities, as people become part of the spectacle and create new stories. The design consists of a long pathway that ramps up and extends the street into the building and of a rectangular raw concrete box from which the amphitheater space is carved out. Approaching from outside, the Theater is perceived as a simple rectilinear monumental volume whereas the curvilinear spaces within this volume create unexpected conditions and dynamic settings. The cuts withing the rectangle frame views, creating unique experiences.

FLUX 2.2 Flux Pavilion Lausanne -Switzerland SUMMER 2017

FLUX is a place-object which is aesthetically and socially engaging, simultaneously encapsulating the theme of water. Its unique design is capable of creating transient situations and offers different experiences such as tranquility, reflection, discussion and interaction. To reflect on the theme of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Architecture and Waterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, we propose an inflatable structure which mimics the in-perfect /organic shapes associated with nature; such as the Lake of Geneva and explore the potentials of a pneumatic structure. The pavilion is fabricated in lightweight materials, it is an architecture supported by air consisting of PVC membrane. Its materiality-or immateriality - enhances a cloud-like feeling and fluidity. The form addresses the notion of endlessness by creating an infinite cycle and distorts the boundaries. These concepts question the connections and borders between architecture and water, while contemplating on the coexistence of both, and create a hub of ideas where people can interact through several means. The pavilion generates various activities such as sitting, climbing, playing, observing and promotes curiosity and engagement. Flux is cost and time effective as it is driven by flexibility and movement. It can be easily inflated on site and deflated and packed in order to be transported to other locations where it inhabits different settings. After it completes its lifetime in the exhibition hall, Flux can stimulate other functions while floating on Lake Geneva.

2.3 Refugee Loops LESBOS - GREECE FALL - 2015

During the past months, Europe has been struggling with the immigration crisis brought upon by refugees desperately seeking territory to provide them with shelter from the political problems in their countries. In 2015 Europe has been flooded with more than 160,000 refugees that exited the African continent by sea and arrived mainly in Turkey and the Lesbos Island in Greece. Europe has been flooded with more than 600,000 refugee applications, and the unprecedented migration this year has made this appropriately termed, “migration crisis” the largest movement of people since WW2. Nevertheless, this daunting event has challenged the European Union’s open door policy, and the EU must find a way to balance the influx of migrants and asylumseekers with the societal struggles faced by its own citizens. Especially concerning is the slow rate at which refugees are being relocated, which not only threatens the balance of the country’s resource system as more people compete to survive, but also puts peace at risk. Greece has come up with a way to address the process of relocation and distribution by seeing the movement of the refugees through a short stay in the island of Lesbos for approximately three to five days. If Greece is to be a true upholder of human rights, it must act in ways to ensure that basic human needs are offered to all its inhabitants, regardless of citizenship status, and on of those needs includes shelter. This project focuses on the temporary housing of the refugees in the shores of Lesbos. The rapid arrival of thousands of people in Lesbos has been the impetus for a governmental l project to create housing; the assembly of living spaces will be quick, and will use manageable and malleable materials such as recycled plastic and bags of concrete so that the refugees can assemble their temporary home in one day. The plastic membranes, which is 100% recyclable material and industrial grade heat-retractable, will be the enclosure of the shelter as well as the mold of the concrete to be casted. The concrete will work as portable foundation element to anchor the plastic panels in order to create stability from the ocean winds.

York Prize Refugee Loops

1.0 Material Studies Two materials were chosen that would express their inherent structural, malleable, or rigid qualities. The goal was to work within the parameters of their qualities like rigid for concrete and malleable for wood. When experimenting with thin layers of wood, I encountered forms of malleability that I wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have thought they could behave. On the other hand, concrete in architecture is usually used as an anchor that deals with compression and stresses. In this material study, i attempt to engage these two materials and their qualities into an iterative process of form.

3.1 Structural Analysis LONDON - UK FALL 2017

Located in the heart of London , Studio East Dining was erected to celebrate the construction of surrounding buildings. It stood atop a 115 feet high parking structure, opening up spectacular views of the 2012 Olympic Park. The views were framed by the restaurantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s structure and the several prisms in which the structure was organized. This structure was made of scaffolding borrowed from the surrounding construction sites. Short lived, this restaurant was put together and taken apart quickly and only remained standing for a total of three weeks. This was made possible by the modularity of scaffolding units. To render the inside of the building more cozy and pragmatic, wooden panels were attached it the scaffolding This gave the effect of having a fairly normal dining space when looking at it from eye level. Studio East Dining seemed to be an ideal project to be analyzed structurally due to its complexity as scaffoldings make different roof pitches in the project. Scaffolding is typically used as portable structures and mostly seen at construction sites; however, the fact that these modules were used as the skeleton of a pavilion fascinated us. This pavilion broke all the conventional rules in order to meet a certain budget, yet, achieved fantastic spaces through using modules that anyone can find at construction sites.

From this hybridization, key building elements were abstracted and translated into a cemetery. The cemetery follows the concept of the directionality (from linear elements from Casa Pentimento), which is configured by a conceptual grid (from the tobacco hangers of first study). The directionality of the walls frame views towards the river and create different spaces of meditation and mourning. Each wall is composed by two layers of perforated glass that hold cremated remains.

3.3 De[Monster]ative Exploration ITHACA - NEW YORK FALL 2014

An exploration in architectural form utilizing found characteristics in monstrous creatures and applied architecturally. The prompt of the project began by analyzing a primitive in the form of an rare animal through a series of motion drawing. These drawings provided a formal basis for an operable construction that maintained the innate characteristics of the monster. Later, these abstractions of the rare animal became opportunities to be translated into kinetic instruments. These instruments will later be translated into architecture, a dwelling or an enclosure. Through researching a given animal, each student goes through abstraction of the behaviors of the animal. This abstraction becomes mechanization where the machine displays the logic of the movement each animal makes. Finally, the machine makes a space or becomes a space (i.e. the machine digs the site or envelops a pavilion)

In fostering cross disciplinary dialog within the College of Architecture, Art, and Planning, Volume 7 is unbound and without order: a collection of plates, each presenting a project completed between Fall 2013 and Fall 2014. The containing box is an index and filter for the plates, revealing commonalities and expanding the scope of each discipline. By interacting with the collection, one exposes a complex network of relationships and generates new readings of both the singular and collective biases of our time.
