Commes Des Garcons Boutique + Showroom
This studio used fashion precedence to design a seven story boutique and show room for the fashion house, Commes Des Garcons. We studied Tom Wiscombe’s “objects within objects” ontology to begin the design process. This building is designed to be in Aoyama, Tokyo across from its competitor, Prada. These large bubble-like components divide and manipulate the structure, program, and façade of the Comme Des Garcons Boutique and Showroom. Most of the chunks are occupiable, but some of them are used to display collections from the brand. The chunks influenced the placement of the floor plates, rooms, and program of the building. The figural cuts around the chunks were formed from the most important parts of the physical model. They represent the fashion line through seemed edges that tear apart like fabric. The interior chunks were inspired by the fashion precedence. The tattoo is based off of the organic shape of the building. The shapes in the tattoo were inspired by the ripped seam cuts in the building. The experience of the exterior is different from the interior experience. In order to create a contrast between the two. The chunks appear small from the exterior, but on the interior they become much larger and easier to classify as occupiable.

CENTRE DE JEUX ARCHÉOLOGIQUE
Interactive Museum and Research Center of Ancient Ruins
In the hidden hills of southern France, lies a site filled with ancient ruins dating back to the 12th century. It is now 2014 and as we stand on the site, the everyday life of the people who worked at this ancient winery are mostly forgotten. The challenge of this studio is to design a museum and research lab that will showcase the ruins and bring them back to life. The ancient ruins of Tourville, which date back to first Gaelic then Roman period, compose of a winery, small shops, areas where games where played, and residential architecture. During this study abroad studio, my partner and I researched which games were played and what activities were performed during the ancient Roman times when this area was booming. Our concept derived from the shape of the Roman colosseum. The colosseum surrounds the object of entertainment, highlighting the object as the center of attention. The main goals of this project were to keep the architecture simple so that the ruins are the main focus, and create a playground experience that allows both adults and children to rediscover the ruins. We designed an interactive museum, using modern learning techniques to experience the ancient culture.

DATUM
Skidaway Island Education and Research Facility
The main focus of this studio was to master site analysis. The task given was to design an education and research facility on Skidaway Island State Park. After three visits to the site to record data and study flora and fauna, is was evident that the surrounding environment would determine the outcome of my design. Skidaway Island is mostly hot, humid, and rainy. The tides are forever changing the coastline, making it difficult to construct on the site. My concept for this design was for the buidling to remain a datum, even when nature is constantly changing around it. This was possible through elevated foundations, light filtering shades on the south-facing windows, garage doors in the workshop for circulation, and sustainable materials. The program of this project includes a small museum area describing the history of the site, student classrooms, laboratories upstairs for research, a workshop where the boats are docked, and indoor/outdoor showers for both researchers and student coming in from the marsh. In this studio I learned how to manipulate site, study sun and rain patterns, and build according to the terrain and climate.

INSIDE TRANSITION OUTSIDE
Chatham County Police Department’s Halfway House for Men
In Savannah, Georgia, there is a high rate of recidivism at the Chatham County Detention Center. In efforts to lower the rate and help transition prisoners back in to the modern world, we are to design a halfway house in the heart of downtown. This is risky, as many of the residents have young children and would prefer not to have felons near family activities. In order to keep the residents of Savannah happy and rehabilitate the transitioning prisoners, the architecture must contain a multitude of security levels. My design was developed based on the theories demonstrated by the Panopticon. The Halfway house is located across the street from the Chatham County Courthouse, creating a sense of surveillance. The concept of my design is to bridge a connection to the courthouse by using an actual bridge on the top floor, connecting the high security level of the halfway house to the courthouse. A shift in the building mass helps to create a divide between maximum and minimum security. The program of the building includes a public cafeteria, technology rooms, community living rooms, private bedrooms and bathrooms, laundry facilities, and offices on the top floor for the security. If anything were to go against protocol, inmates would be brought to this floor to the holding cells until they need to be seen at the courthouse, using the bridge. Each residential floor has a centrally located security station, using the Panopticon as inspiration.

BIO - BREW
Self-Sustaining Brewery AIA COTE Competition 2015
The Bio-Brew is an adaptive reuse renovation of a vacant fire department. Located in Savannah, Georgia, the site is on the corner of Martin Luther King Blvd. and Indian Street. This will be a very busy corner within the next few years, as there are multiple boutique hotel, retail, and restaurant designs being constructed by 2018 to extend Savannah’s riverfront. The program of this proposal is a self-sustaining brewery with three apartments on the top floor, designed to revitalize the north-west end of downtown Savannah. Being in one of twhe few cities with an open container law (allowed to drink alcohol in the downtown area), a brewery is the perfect solution to reactivate this once lively site. At roughly 12,600 square feet, the brewery’s building footprint is the same as the existing 1970’s building on the site. The building follows a cradle to cradle system, with hops growing on site for the beer then used as cattle feed, rainwater purified by reverse osmosis, then heated by a high concentration compound cycle for the brewing process, and yeast water is cleaned and used as process water.
