the building provides spaces, both formal and informal, for creativity to take place. a flowing circulation patterns is set up to encourage impromptu creative sessions between users. housing units become chained together to allow combinations of living/ working situations. an ever changing facade allows users to choose privacy levels and allows for views from the exterior into the wall and beyond. a public ground plane provides entry into the wall by traversing under. here, both public and private user programs are found: an auditorium, library, community center, workshops... the yard provides breakout space and a crane system for larger creative endeavors. a masterplan sets up a creative campus for the ideas and products created in the wall to disperse into the fabric. existing army buildings will be converted into business headquarters and new development will surround these. natural buffer zones will be created to create open expanse of green space to act as a connected from mountain to river. new green ways and roads connect back to the existing fabric to create easier access to a place once very disconnected.

through voluntary isolation, users find a building equipped with the necessities for life and creativity, thus creating an intensely focused atmosphere, where the incubation period is reduced. by internalizing the body and mind within the “wall,” the users become “prisoners” of their own being, along with their fellow users. a new type of living is created where the users are separated both mentally and physically from their surroundings to create an intense, yet nurturing environment.

mixed use tower, nyc| morphed living
the building proposal is a mixed use tower located in west chelsea that holds retail, commercial, residential, and luxury. using a process of transformation, the form of the building rises out of attributes of elegance. transitions in angles and densities reflect the program which occupies the building. lines of structure that break up the facade act as veins that fracture the massing of the building. the transition of program from commercial to residential takes place along these fractures, mixing the program of the building in a new way. the veins respond to these transitions, along with the facade. the fractures cut into the building, creating a relationship of facade to interior of the building.

[a rock club] [iteration 3] lateral movement of whole by discourse within a local object
grid is divided discourse with in all objects, localized
each five-sided figure is free to move independently six five-sided figures are formed according to the grid
the cracking operation is applied
by faces either sharing edges or not sharing edges, openings in the roof can form
lateral movement of whole by change in size
multi-directional movement of local object by discourse in adjacent object
lateral movement of whole by change in size and discourse
the music that is performed at a rock club showcases a value of its core: rebellion. one cannot rebel without its antithesis: authority. the rock club is an opportunity to rebel against the given authority, namely conditions created by the site. there are three conditions of authority created by the site: a grid condition, a roof condition, and a ground condition. by subverting these conditions of authority, the building rebels.

buildings are designed to get people out during times of distress [natural disaster, fire, flood, etc...]. a new type of building is created when this idea of getting people out shifts to the idea of keeping people in. with the current shift in the climate and the probability of disaster rising, the creation of a building that can keep its occupants safe and in place is timely. the building gets split into two parts: the top being housing and the

bottom being public program. the design of dual functioning spaces within these parts allows for spaces of delight [galleries, cafĂŠs, pools, etc...] to become resourceful spaces of distress [triage, shelter, temporary housing, etc...]. serving both the residents of the building and the community in both times of delight and shelter, the building becomes an example of how we live with a changing climate.

This pavilion is the result of an exploration of structural and material principals. We began by testing what kind of forms would arise from simply folding sheets of paper. Through this process, two types of structuring principals stood out: the folded plate and the cantilever. The given site, the north side of Franklin Field, became the testing grounds for these principals. Through different iterations, a form of two soaring cantilevered wings supported by trusses and an arch in
the center became the basis for the pavilion. Visual structural tests were conducted to inform the material selection for the pavilion, in which aluminum was selected to provide a lightweight solution. The detailing of connections was the next step in which a hinge, wall, ground, and truss connection was designed. This pavilion could act as a new, inviting space to the entrance to the facilities at Franklin Field.
