THE PROJECT The arena and football field were only a portion of a larger campus design project for Choctaw Central Middle School & High School campus in Philadelphia, MS. I worked directly with the Principal Architect of PryorMorrow in the schematic design through construction document stages of the project. I inherited an existing floor plan and spent the summer and winter breaks developing the project and revising changes based on client feedback.
APPROACH The school will be used for the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians, and as a tribal school, we wanted to include as many Choctaw motifs and symbols as possible. Throughout the project we included repeating diamond patterns, beadwork, and other significant traditions as the client specifically requested that people know they were in a tribal school as soon as they entered.

PROCESS
LEVEL FLOOR PLAN (DIMENSIONED)
My first significant task was to consult with vendors and the client to devise a suitable weight room layout for the football team that would be attached to the arena mezzanine level. This started as a sketch and trace paper study, testing out several different layouts for the space. Once a layout was made, I moved to the computer to create a render package for the client to properly convey our design decisions.
DESIGN Since the weight room would be visible from spectators of the basketball games, we wanted to use it as a statement piece for the quality of facilities that the students of the school enjoyed. The weight room has glass storefront on both sides of the room facing both the football field and the basketball court, allowing for continuous outdoor views for those within the room and the arena.

PROJECT ADDRESS
PryorMorrow
Moving to the football field just south of the arena and weight room, we were aware of the rigidity and regulation that confines the creative exploration of the field, but still wanted to carry over tribal motifs whenever possible. This is where we employed the traditional Choctaw diamond pattern on the field border and arrowheads adjacent to the field numbers as well as the Tribal Seal to further express the Native heritage of the school and team for the players to draw pride from.

RENDERING
ROSS COLLINS VOCATIONAL CENTER
THE PROJECT Our studio was tasked with designing a new facility for the Ross Collins Vocational Center, one of the oldest and longest running vocational centers in the state of Mississippi. The challenges facing the project were a condensed site and a plethora of different disciplines housed under one roof that needed to be integrated in a sensible way. While balancing the aforementioned problems, we were also instructed to approach the facility through the lens of what education may look like in the next twenty years, which explains the cutting edge materials throughout the project.
THE APPROACH In the beginning, we started with iterative trace paper form and adjacency studies as a way to order the large floor areas within the building footprint. With this base understanding of the organization of the project, I then moved into Autocad and Revit to further develop the floor plan. At the same time, I was also attempting to understand how I wanted the building to be perceived in three dimensions with section and perspective studies.

MATERIALS
BIO-CHAR CLADDING
Bio-char cladding is a panel system made by the German start up Made of Air. It is produced from the waste products of other wood processes in factories, successfully harnessing all possible material while also sequestering carbon from the atmosphere.
SELF-HEALING CONCRETE Self healing concrete was chosen as a durable base for the building for its long life cycle. the life cycle is further improved from new cutting edge technology that repairs cracks in the structure. the finish for the concrete throughout the project will be that of board formed concrete, relating the un natural material back to natural wood tones and materials used elsewhere.
TIMBER LOUVRE SYSTEM The timber louvre system was chosen to lighten up the project by introducing warmer tones to the existing colder materials already employed throughout the project. Practically speaking, they help shade some of the larger panes of glass in the project.
LOW-E CURTAIN WALL SYSTEM For maximum efficiency, a low-e curtain wall system was chosen for the project to efficiently prevent the passage of heat as much as possible through the glazing used throughout the project.
PHILOSOPHY When we think of the future, we may immediately jump to some understanding of steel and glass in some sort of perfect utopian universe, but I think our near future is much more grounded in sustainability at its core. This is why I centered my material selection around the single most sustainable material currently available to us: wood. Bio-char cladding produced from the waste products of other wood processes in combination with timber slats and siding to bring in warmer tones to ground the project are the basis. To round out the facade, board formed concrete relates this foreign material back to the original idea.

TINY HOUSE VILLAGE
THE PROJECT For this project, we were instructed to produce economical solutions for a tiny home village in Shreveport, Louisiana. The goal for each project was to design a 150 s.f. tiny home to be implemented in a community for those affected by homelessness in the local population. With the challenging square footage requirement, I still wanted to have some separation between the living and sleeping areas.

MIXED USE RESIDENTIAL MID-RISE COMPLEX
THE PROJECT We were tasked with designing a mixed use residential mid-rise tower in the heart of Chicago. The first floor would be designed as a shell for commercial development, with the above levels being devoted to a repeating dwelling unit and any other amenity we chose to include.
PROCESS After site analysis, we quickly moved into conceptual design where I developed a series of form studies through computer modelling. The speed at which I could move through the software gave me the quickest return on invested time as I could test out the most possible variations quickly until I landed on my final concept.
THE UNIT As I did not want to be entirely naive to the cost of real estate in Chicago, I wanted to implement an apartment unit that was both responsible in its footprint and seemingly spacious enough to accomodate a young professional in their living. This is how I arrived at the loft style apartment, as I felt this separated the different areas nicely with the overhang of the loft creating a more intimate space within the kitchen.

DEVELOPMENT With the unit designed, I had to begin to think of how these smaller components should be aggregated for the overall composition. The nature of the plan allowed me to create a subtle push and pull across the facade that made things like material change much easier to implement. In this way, the plan and elevations built themselves to a certain degree.

WOODWORKING
INTEREST I’ve been interested in woodworking as long as my dad and I have been fixing things around the house. Its always seemed to get the best of me each time I’ve taken a stab at it, but I think that’s why I keep coming back to it. The pursuit to get better at something difficult has always intrigued me. When I got to architecture school, I quickly learned the lateral flexibility that a design education could afford me, and in my second year, I started experimenting with woodworking in our woodshop that I’ve really grown to appreciate. It’s been mostly small things, shelves, jewelry stands as gifts,etc. But possibly my single most rewarding project in architecture school would have to be a desk that classmates and I designed and built for the Sanderson Center on MSU’s campus for an elective class.
PROJECT Specifically within the Sanderson Center, the client was the outdoor adventure department, and needed a semi-mobile front desk to function for equipment storage as well as something for a storefront to catch the attention of passerby. In Rhino, we explored parametric facades for the desk to be cut out with our CNC machine, with our concept being the peaks of a mountain range. Through experimentation and mockup modelling, we finally landed on our 12.5’ of desk. It is worth mentioning that the construction of the desk, composed partly of birch plywood sheets and the tops finished in reclaimed maple floor boards, was the most painstaking process I have ever been apart of. Then again, I believe that’s what made the final product all the better.
