Undergraduate Work - UIUC Competitions Construction

Jacmel Health Clinic From Competition to Reality: Our Design Chosen to Build in Haiti The building is designed around a central spine, where two parts servicing operations and check-ups can run simultaneously. The outdoor plays a major role in education and community teaching. In post-disaster scenarios, the outdoor provides additional covered space for assessment and treatment. Safety and acceptance for the community were top priorities in order to ensure the clinic becomes an active and successful operation after its construction. With the team we decided to go with confined masonry walls with a poured concrete roof creating a rigid frame.

Local pride is incorporated into the detailed tile floor, window iron work, and open masonry screen walls through commissioning local craftsmen of the region. Using the local building methods allows for passive ventilation and daylighting throughout the building,while still bringing the building up to the raised standards that the client has for the community.

Gluten Free Milling Facility & Bakery Bringing Industry Back To Central East Side - Raising Awareness & Meeting Market Demands

NW 23RD

The Central East Side Industrial District has always been a hub for production and manufacturing since Portland’s early history. There is much room to be made for increased density and new types of trade.

However, industry needs to retain a prominent role in the neighborhood to keep local jobs and preserve the integrity of the district. The increased demand of glutenfree products has prompted new specialized businesses to emerge in the Portland area. I chose to hone in on this market and seize the opportunity to bring the manufacturing of the product back to the city.

The new facility will showcase the industry along Taylor, displaying the milling and packaging process to passersby. The building will also contribute to the education and awareness of gluten issues, having an information wall inside the bakery, a demonstration kitchen and daily tours of the factory. The bakery will contribute to the future development of Taylor street, bringing people out from their businesses and homes to activate the street.

Inuit Art Learning Center Celebrating Inuit Art & Research with Cultural Beacon as an Extension of W.A.G. This project had two main goals; first, to provide a space to house and display the museum’s internationally renowned collection of contemporary Inuit art, and secondly, to provide a new facility for the Gallery’s Studio Art and Learning programs. The design development was focused around the Context of the existing building we were adding to, the Movement between the new and the old, Light, and Material.

Atrium Display

The two major focal points to the addition are the skin and the visible storage of Inuit art wrapping the atrium.

The skin gives identity to the learning center, shining like a beacon to the city, while showcasing contemporary Inuit artist Marion Tuu’Iuuq’s “Baker Lake” in the distortion of the perforated skin. The atrium links the learning center to the gallery extension by giving the different users of the building equal opportunity to experience the art in its new central display.

Washington High School Adaptive Reuse Historic Building Re-envisioned for Community Arts Efforts, New Emerging Green Businesses & In Demand Housing Washington High School, located on the SE side of Portland, has been void of its intended use since 1981. This project was intended to explore both the development and historic preservation side of re-purposing this building recently deemed a local historic landmark.

My main goals were to allow for a mixed, diverse community within the one complex while maintaining the central place of gathering for the neighbourhood, allowing for a more active commercial street, and providing spaces for new emerging businesses to thrive.

CONWAY ReDevelopment Scheme Future Planning for Up and Coming North West Neighborhood

My building is a mid-rise residential segment between the public square and park, a prime real estate location. I wanted to take advantage of the views and connection between both by creating a through unit.

This lead to a Corbusian-model section, with two main circulation corridors and units that wrap up or down and around the corridor. The circulation towers provided unique opportunities for efficiency apartments. The mix of widths of apartments as well as different unit types, allow for a range of tenants to occupy the building, creating a more diverse pocket-like community, with shared common spaces and amenities. The rooftop allows for shared garden beds, as well as event space and outdoor patio. While below the ground floor supports a large restaurant and bar, shop and open-air market.

L’Ecole Comme Un Village Parisian Elementary School Designed in a Series of Hierarchical Courtyards to Promote Independence In this project, set in Paris, France, I wanted to create a different experience for the children as they went through their day in primary school. I created a plan as a sort of village, in which each “municipal” had their own distinguishable building. The classrooms were paired together by grade, and stacked in a procession throughout the site. The initial entrance to the space leads to a formal “administrative” courtyard, which allows all the public programmatic spaces to border.

The students can meander through the space to process further into the informal or student courtyard in which all of the classroom units face. This almost urban sort of design allows not only for pockets of green spaces and natural light to enter all rooms in the building, but affords the children both the freedom and responsibility to travel from one building to the next and physically witness the ascension as you progress from one grade to the next. This model will make them more aware of their surroundings, expose them more to nature throughout the day, and give them a sense of maturity and control of their daily lives.

The Sustainable Habitat for Humanity Competition Using SIP Panels for Affordable Home Construction in the Midwest Home When designing a new sustainable home model for the Midwest Chapter of Habitat for Humanity, we wanted to find a reasonably inexpensive and versatile form of building that would withstand the extreme weather flux.

We decided on structurally insulated panels or SIPs to provide both the strength and insulation needed to hold up against Midwestern winters. This also helped us stay within $100,000 construction budget as well as the 1,070 sq.ft. limit. To make the layout most efficient we came up with a utility core which centralizes all water usage to an island in the middle of the house that divides the house into its private and public spaces. By keeping all plumbing in this central wall we simplify the construction process and allow for maximum storage on the outer walls.

Habitat for Humanity Competition Creating the house using SIPs allows for a rapid construction process and great flexibility in the planning of future homes. Because the panels are pre-manufactured and lightweight the house could be constructed in a single day, as well as expanded to meet the needs of larger families. The house and window placement can also be easily rearranged to adapt to the solar and lighting conditions of each lot. The exterior would be finished with an adhered vinyl paper that would weatherproof the house and make for a durable yet customizable facade. Adding PV panels to the South facing roof would reduce the energy cost and make for a more sustainable home. We designed the gutters to lead to a rainwater catchment system that could potentially be a water cistern underground that feeds our centralized plumbing or serve as irrigation to the planted vegetation.

A competition to rebuild Joplin, MO after the tornado in 2011 challenged us to develop a concept home with the prompt of “essential dwelling” within 1,000 sq. ft. limit. My landscape architecture partner and I decided it was crucial for this new home to meld landscape and living in order to create a restorative environment for the users. With that in mind we developed a scheme that incorporated views throughout the house and created an efficient but comfortable home. The structural system of insulated concrete panels will help to resist the strong winds of the tornado region. Built in furniture allows for maximum storage and the stacking of program allows for separation of public and private spaces.

With the East-West orientation of the city, the twostory house allows for a shaded northern garden, where the bedroom and living room windows are located. The major window on the West, streetfacing facade allows a permanent connection to the community and the East, garden-facing facade creates an intimate yet spectacular view to the backyard. These three major views allow for a constant connection to nature and openness in the space.

Giving Citizens the Knowledge & Structure to Rebuild Housing Post Landslides This 1 week intensive project allowed us to work in collaboration with French students to solve a natural disaster issue. My team chose the mudslides in the Rio de Janiero area of Brazil where we focused on the low class housing called favelas along the hillside in the city Teresopolis. With unstable ground and an immediate need to rebuild, we proposed a system of replanting to prevent future landslides as well as providing the people with a more stable solution to their existing building methods. We devised a system of building on piloties to allow for future rain fall and mudslides to avoid damaging the home and integrating the house around AND IT WILL LOOK AFTER a tree that will stabilize the YOU! ground beneath the house and provide the family with shelter, safety, and security.

SAFE BOX| LOOK AFTER YOUR TREE AND IT WILL LOOK AFTER YOU OUR CASE • January 2010 - Teresopolis, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil • Major floods, mudslides and landslides caused by torrential rain • More than 400 people died and over 1000 people lost their homes • The majority of deaths and destruction happened in the favelas built on the hillside illegally and where the living conditions are very poor • The hillside is the only place these victims can build and they will move back there as soon as possible, even if the ground is still unstable • The people living in the favelas improve their house over time in function of their ressources and the amount of time they have been living on their site. From a simple, one room shelter, their home will transform into a two story house

OUR INTENTIONS AND CONCEPT • Stabilise the ground by planting trees and vegetation • Show the inhabitants how to build a stronger structure for their house with the material we give them by building an example of a house around a tree • For every house that is built a tree must be planted • The people will have to learn how to live with the tree and use it in the architecture of their house • The house must evolve and grow with the tree in strength and size, the house must not grow faster than the tree’s roots • The more the tree grows the more it will offer them protection, stable ground and stable foundations. So to be safe the people need to look after the tree

Global Architecture Brigade Learning Masonry Construction Working with Locals to Build Elementary School in Honduras After my Junior year, I had the privilege of partaking in a volunteer trip to Honduras with a local school chapter to help build an elementary school. This new school would serve children in 15 surrounding communities. We were able to receive hands on site experience, work with the locals, along with doing physical labour. I helped level land, mix cement, tie rebar, lay CMUs, and build up columns.
