Spring 2011 /// Acadia Ntl. Park, Maine Professor Micahel Nius

OCH Culinary School Spring 2012 Mid-City, New Orleans Professor Andrew Liles The full city block spans from the historic commercial fabric to the lower, segmented residential area. Base of the building follows the surroundings as the site changes from urban to residential. The Oretha Castle Haley (OCH) boulevard was the site of many historic civil rights events and organizations.

OCH Culinary School Spring 2012 Mid-City, New Orleans Professor Andrew Liles
Two upper volumes contain the school. The teaching kitchen block crowns the building with trusses intended to allow for clear spans.
The Lecture Hall fits on to the slope of the form, providing visual support for the program above.

OCH Culinary School Spring 2012 Mid-City, New Orleans Professor Andrew Liles Steel angles resting within the trusses secure the curtian wall while offering shelfing space. Egress hangs from the tops of the trusses by steel tension rods at the top of the structure, and provides sunshading against the summer light while allowing winter light to enter the spaces.

Ye New Library
Spring 2011 /// Acadia Ntl. Park, Maine Professor Micahel Nius
13
Ye New Library Fall 2011 French Quarter, New Orleans Professor Ammar Eloueini Stepped courtyards and a public path through the site that carve out distinct programmatic areas. References to French Quarter semi-private courtyards and pedestrian culture influence this proposal. A dialect forms between the upper, open digital media space and the “subterranean� old media space below the courtyards.

Ye New Library Fall 2011 French Quarter, New Orleans Professor Ammar Eloueini
The quick media space is designed with lightweight and transparent members, while the stacks are fitted
with a prefabricated brick system. This acts as a contemporary variation on the prevalent
building material of the French Quarter and acts as bridge to the high-tech style of the new media area. 17

Oculi provide natural light to the areas directly below the courtyard. This creates a visual connection to the courtyard above, including the third level at the vertex of the path.

Aggregation
Summer 2010 /// Treme, New Orleans Professor Doug Harmon The New Orleans population fluctuates dramatically in reaction to both catastrophic and dionysian events.
Urban living spaces must be designed to aggregate and service these occurrent influxes. Minimal privacy during the day
and a lack of presence at night. Overall feeling of vacancy despite strong pedestrian and vehicular movement.
21
Aggregation Aggregation Summer 2010 Treme, New Orleans Professor Doug Harmon A sleeping space was developed that could offer privacy to the occupant, while an indicator of activity to the community.
Spring 2011 /// Acadia Ntl. Park, Maine Professor Micahel Nius
This move combats the sense of vacancy during the nightlife of the site. Moving to the aggregate scale, the form of a wave serves the dual purposes of increasing privacy between spaces and activating the site. 23

Yoga retreat in the trees. Acadia Ntl. Park boasts rocky slopes and desnse foliage. Below the canopy exists a dark
contemplative space hidden from the heavens. Above the canopy, the individual trees form a single kinetic surface that complements
the ocean in the distance. These two states mirror the levels of internal and communal meditation in yoga.

Ledbetter Heights Urban Plan Summer 2011 Shreveport, LA SMBB Choice Neighborhood Grant from HUD. This mixed-use structure combines a parking garage, housing, commercial space, and a boutique hotel for a developing art corridor at the edge of downtown. The development fits with LEED-Development guidleines, a new rubric for urban design. A solar panel array on the roof could power the entire complex, and pay for itself in 4 years (calculated with Louisiana solar subsidies).
