PARTI: CLOSED & OPEN HEXAGONS
In response to a design brief for office interiors for a non-profit organisation, recent events make WikiLeaks’ conjectural US presence highly charged with issues of security and technology in workplace design, sensitive response to site, and control of circulation. WikiLeaks’ present HQ is a Cold War-era underground bunker in Sweden, featuring a floating glass conference room above climate-controlled servers in a rock cavern. In response to the NYC glass-box skyscraper site, the concept proposed was to “invert the bunker.;” namely, to explore open-vs.-closed contrasts and natural-vs.-synthetic or raw-vs.-crafted textures. SITE: 41 MADISON AVE, NYC
AXONOMETRIC
The client’s mission for transparency in governance and appropriate data protection is served by an office layout with successive levels of access, balancing open plan against enclave and refuge workspaces, culminating in a multi-use assembly stadium below stepped coves of colorchanging LEDs inspired by the art of James Turrell.

In response to a design brief for full conversion of an industrial building to a hospitality concept, my proposal folded in the quest for effective sacred space-making. Escapist resort hospitality involves a retreat from urban chaos and the seeking of an otherwordly revitalizing experience; similarly, medieval monasteries like St. Gall & Clairvaux, or Zen temples, structure and enable these pursuits. Within a derelict incineration plant on the waterfront in the Meatpacking District, the Platonic geometries of the Buddhist stupa symbol serve a three-pronged program: (i) a global affairs and governance center based on the study of, and dialog between, East-West philosophies (such as the Beggruen Institute); (ii) a secularly 'monastic' hotel for visiting diplomats and TED leaders to reside, meditate, study & escape; (iii) public outreach amenites to serve and educate. Light, shadow, sound, water, and gardens are choreographed in space. A waterfall stair in the former garbage ash-pit leads to an oculus-domed sanctuary whose roof canopy spreads over hanging gardens which face the waterfront and reject the city, The paired entrance towers recall cathedrals, minarets, and pagodas.

[THESIS EXCERPT] “... The parti is derived from the Buddhist stupa, originally a reliquary for the Buddha’s hair and bones, but now simplified into a conceptual mandala, or thought-diagram, of stacked squarecircle-triangle. This imparts geometric purity to the building’s section, and the program’s divisions of function. The lower two floors use the vocabulary of the cube in the public outreach areas of auditorium, art galleries and restaurant. The worship sanctuary expresses the sphere, and rises full-height through an oculus to a tri-form roof canopy. The fourth and fifth ‘monastery’ levels, with meditation hall & private ‘cloister’ rooms, echo this curvilinear language; while the intervening third floor has a distinct language of sliding planes, essentially an elision of the cube transforming into a sphere. This indicates the programmatic uniqueness of this floor, devoted neither to insular contemplation nor public education, but to active application of ethics through global conflict resolution. Design solutions in this Crucible thesis are inspired by, and respond to, issues of phenomenology in architecture, particularly arising out of the writings of Juhani Pallasmaa, and its application to the development of sacred space. By focusing on a holistic conception of sensory response, and by challenging the binary oppositions of building-vs-occupant / structure-vs-volume / observer-vs-phenomenon, we edge towards a conception of place that is non-dualistic, almost Daoist in derivation. In other words, a broader philosophical conception where exterior-interior, material-immaterial, solid-void are intrinsically inseparable, simultaneous, and fundamentally univalent. Selected work by Peter Zumthor, Le Corbusier, and Louis Kahn shall be used as case studies, and the concept of ‘ma’ (space-time-interval) in classical Japanese architecture shall be discussed.
In the Eyes of the Skin, the Finnish architect Juhani Pallasmaa discusses his concern of the patriarchy or dominance of the eye over the creation of architecture. This ‘ocularcentrism’ privileges appearance and rationalized focusing over the more fundamental haptic senses. In order to counter the alienation we feel within built space, Pallasmaa calls for our vision to become more ‘unfocused’ and ‘peripheral,’ and for architecture to restore primacy to considerations of touch, sound, smell, taste and physical orientation. As one’s perceptions are “fused into the haptic continuum of the self,” one discovers that, “...my body is truly the navel of my world, not in the sense of the viewing point of the central perspective, but as the very locus of reference, memory, imagination, and integration.” This reference to the omphalos, the navel of the world, is particularly resonant when discussing sacred space, since it is first used in reference to the Delphic oracle. Omphalos-stones were considered the power centers of the gods, and were set up in the adyton (the holy-of-holies) of the temple. One of the more famous modern usages of the term refers to the Foundation Stone of the former Temple of Jerusalem (destroyed 70 CE) enclosed within the Dome of the Rock, sacred to all three religions of the Book. Omphalos therefore integrates multivalent meanings: site of divine inspiration, site of temple foundation, site of generative power through the unity of phallus and uterus, the axis mundi, the fulcrum of the universe. By applying a phenomenological approach, the generative sacredness of any space may derive from the complete integration of the fully human into the built structure.”

KAHN: THE SALK INSTITUTE, LA JOLLA, CA.
[THESIS EXCERPT] “... With this discussion of boundaries, interventions and place-making, we have almost come full circle to Norberg-Schulz’s discussion of the tangibility of thresholds. He quotes Heidegger, “A boundary is not that at which something stops, but as the Greeks recognized, the boundary is that from which something begins its presencing.” In classical Greece, the boundary between the sacred and the profane was termed alsos, referring to sacred groves of trees growing at the mouths of caves thought to lead to the Underworld. The transition between one realm and another was therefore a physical thing; more specifically, living things of nature, which moved, changed, aged. This is what makes gardens such powerful transitions, and Louis Kahn himself used groves of trees as transitions to the Salk Intitute, and to the Kimbell Art Museum, identifying these places as sacred realms (of art, of science, of humanism.) In praising the meditative outdoor room at Salk, which emphasizes the metaphysical by using horizon, ocean, and sun, as well as the silvery immateriality of the light-filtering cycloid vaults at Kimbell, Curtis writes, “... recently there has been a slogan of the ‘tectonic’ as a supposed answer to a world filled with arbitrary
images, but here again Kahn slips through the rhetoric. Kahn’s architecture is full of inversions: masses which seem suddenly weightless, materials which dissolve into immateriality, structures which reverse load and support, rays of light which reveal the realm of shadows, solids whch turn out to be voids.” Simply put, Kahn reveals himself a master of phenomenological place-making. Norberg-Schulz discusses the key poem ‘ein Winterabend’ by Georg Trakl as phenomenology in the making of a home, but his analysis of the door threshold is equally applicable to ‘wanderers’ who seek entry to divine illumination rather than mundane domicile: “To dwell in a house therefore means to inhabit the world. But this dwelling is not easy; it has to be reached on dark paths, and a threshold separates the outside room from the inside. Representing the ‘rift’ between ‘otherness’ and ‘manifest meaning,’ this threshold embodies suffering and “is turned to stone.”” Therefore to paraphrase Norberg-Schulz, “In the threshold, thus, the problem of (sacred place-making) comes to the fore ...”, namely, the embodying of ordeal-testing, symbolic passage and redemptive transformation.
By using the devices intentionality, concretiz oppositions of bodyobserved, we may be sanctity and spirit in draw lessons from cl Kahn: (i) focus on th choreography; (ii) us evocative haptic mate spatial-temporal off-br relatedness; (iv) consid whose tension and en truth of construction, materials to show thro

In response to a design brief for a resort hotel and destination bar in Singapore, research indicated declining birth rate, social conservatism and prudishness, and ironically, simplistic attitudes due to lack of open discussion about sex. Therefore, the concept was present a bold interior based on our physical erogeneity and the unusual shapes of spinal vertebra. The elongated design of the lobby invites the sensation of passing through an esophagus, punctuated by glowing spongeal partitions. The drawings of Lebbeus Woods sparked interest in more intuitive forms than those generated by the parametric geometries of Zaha Hadid or David Widrig, to keep these partitions softer and organic.
MARK ZEFF: NIGHT HOTEL
Further contrasts of shiny and squishy, tight-binding yet yielding or perforated, led to great diversity in textural finishes, as inspired by Harry Clarke's 1923 illustrations of Poe's stories, to spark intrigue, frisson and thrill. As a project focused mainly on lighting calculations and fixture selections, the emphasis is on the creation of mood, the curation of contemporary art to support the concept, and the building of complexity in FF&E, rather than in spatial renderings.

VICTORIA, 1897 ©CORBIS
In response to a design brief for adapting a traditional design style to the 21st century, the visual density and textural layering of the Aesthetic Style of the Victorians is evoked, but using furniture, artwork and materials generally from other periods. Inspired by the age of Anglo-Indian colonies, dandy aesthetes, and Freudian psychoanalysis, as well as the shimmering tones of ink, lace and gaslight, the control of pattern in the interior design is achieved using a play of scale, restricted palette, and unifying themes of Rorschach blots and fractured faceting. Book-matched burl veneers in the blockish case furniture is repeated in the mirrored wallpaper. Shimmering Cubist planes and Pollock drips are echoed in ink-splotch carpets and by mica-flecked faux ostrich & snakeskin leather which could only be 21st Century. The opulence of a 1740s green and white marble Palladian fireplace by William Kent plays off a Bacon triptych of equal grandeur. Ceiling paneling drawn from Whistler’s ‘Peacock’ Room is accented by Anglo-colonial ‘Moorish’ chandeliers invented from my own childhood in Kuala Lumpur.

In response to a design brief for a single-set production design, Pulitzer Prize-winner Suzan-Lori Parks' play "In the Blood" specifies its protagonist, a black single mother of five, lives under a bridge. My proposal examines the dramatic exigencies of human vitality in the most interstitial and forgotten crannies of our urban landscape: the freeway underpass. This contemporization of Hawthorne's "The Scarlet Letter" opens with Hester fitfully trying to erase the shameful 'branding' of graffiti on her wall. By using precedents from homeless transients, with apparent necessities like salvaged mattress, shopping cart, and ballooning bags, this set allows the abuse and corruption of Hester to compel reassessment of the instinctive dehumanization of all these unseen homeless.
