seaside vacation house competition summer 2010 team: mikhail kim, jesse wetzel

site: coast of chile program: vacation house for owners and visitors to be built in phases project interests: create own site in a contextless setting through terrain changes and building massing, separate the functions of the house into independent volumes arranged along two site walls.

bridging nc communications center spring 2007 professors: patrick rand, dennis stallings

site: outer banks, corolla, nc program: think thank retreat, cafe, restaurant, library, auditorium, conference rooms, gallery, lighthouse society offices project interests: bridging of differing site conditions through programmatic organization, exploring the skin to structure relationship through a rigid repetitive frame structure and a light skin that shifts, opens, and closes across it.

two successive projects research trajectory: lamination-induced curvature project aspirations: use rhinoscript to describe a doubly-curved surface, work with 20ga steel to test and fabricate a surface where curvature is induced through lamination of parallel surfaces. personal contribution was primarily scripting, and secondary on material fabrication

research trajectory: developable-surface frame project aspirations: produce frame units from four developable surfaces, pentagonal aggregation, controlled unit aggregation personal contribution was focused on material and technique testing, fabrication and assembly, with a secondary focus on geometric parameters

pulling lines duke university student union fall 2006 professors: susan cannon, jeffrey lee

site: duke university east campus durham, nc program: student commons, offices, cafe, cafeteria, meeting rooms project interests: architecture as an infrastructure. the solid masses of the building are formed by projecting lines from the surrounding context. these blocks make up the opaque infrastructural pieces. the open â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;negativeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; spaces remain as a flexible program shell. the overall programmatic strategy is a public to private gradient in section from the front to the rear of the building.
