ROOFTOP STUDIO Converting an unsightly, unusable rooftop into an astatically functional space for education and exploration. The concept of this project is to allow students to have the opportunity to experience studio outdoors. This rooftop studio is connected to Dexter Bldg room 252. The Roof covers the main entrance of Dexter Bldg. As you enter the building, you see a large curve glass wall that cantilevers off the rooftop.

Below: The view is oriented east. A group of people on the right are looking at a presentation board while standing on the cantilever glass. The couple on the left are walking by a sliding glass door that leads to studio room 252. The
door creates a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor space. Outside of the glass door, there is seating wall which is also a giant planter box for three large olive trees.

GREYWOLF WINERY
The Greywolf Winery is located in Paso Robles, California. They are a small family owned winery that has seven different labels. The family has been in winery business for two generations. The owner would like to attract more visitors who are passing through Highway 49 which is right in front of the winery entrance, as well as promote a new venture, distillery. The goal was to provide the client with a luxury venue that would attract high-end clientele.

SLO ZOO Researching Australia’s Mediterranean climate and designing a six-exhibit zoo around Australian culturally significant flora and fauna.
BILLABONG The Billabong is a hole that fills with water from seasonal rain. Billabong is the design concept of each exhibit. Each exhibit allows the on-lookers to observe the animals from the distance.
AVIARY The Aviary is a space frame structure that is made of light weight alloy, so it possible to expands a large distance. Allowing it houses two different exhibits.
LAKESIDE Lakeside is an area of lounging and dining. The shade structure is made of wood and is a contemporary representation of a cave.
ArcGIS PROJECT This project will help identify a location for a family thinking of moving to Kauai by anailizing GIS data, and understand how this information contributes to finding an optimal location to live. These maps are environmental, social-economic and cultural factors. Environmental Factors: Identify areas of the island that have environmental concerns.
-Locate high risk zones for natural disasters (fire zones, flood, tsunami wave height) to identify optimal location for housing. Social-economic Factors: Identify sites with different real estate values. -Locate areas of land value.
Cultural Factors: Identify opportunities for services.
-Analyze schools in areas close to optimal housing
-Analyze hospitals in 2000 yards to optimal housing
MOVE TO KAUAI?
PATIO BAR Patio Bar is a design and build project. The requirement of the project was to design furniture for a designated site. We utilized the recycled material from the site, reclaimed wood which build three chairs, a bar, and pots for the plants. The bar top and stool tops are all casted from concrete. The project objective was also to learn the fundamentals of structure.
