IMOB Garage aluminum grille screen facade.

El Camino Hospital Sobrato Pavilion - Mountain View, CA El Camino Hospital (ECH) in Mountain View, CA has been at the forefront of medical technology since its founding in the 1950â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. Two projects, the Integrated Medical Office Building (IMOB) Sobrato Pavilion with an attached Garage, and the Behavioral Health Services (BHS) Taube Pavilion, both exemplify this spirit of innovation. The IMOB is a 267,149 square foot, 7 story building that houses multi-disciplinary outpatient services that connect with the existing New Main Hospital via a framed courtyard at its east side. The building includes centers for cancer, heart & vascular, and neurosciences. The connected 4 level, 391 stall parking garage services both staff and visitors. The IMOB is designed on a strict module to accommodate compliant exam rooms, offices, procedure rooms, and consultation rooms that may be modified as tenants and configurations change. The building and hospital campus receive power from a photovoltaic array microgrid network, and the IMOB Garage includes structure for future panels to add to the network. The site plan includes a perimeter to protect against 100-year flooding from the nearby creek, and the structure has been specially designed to span over underground utility tunnels while still meeting extensive seismic criteria. 3

El Camino Hospital Taube Pavilion - Mountain View, CA The BHS Taube Pavilion is a 55,000 square foot behavioral health services building that lends its form to retaining as many existing heritage trees as possible, keeping the site densely wooded. The building is divided into two levels: Inpatient services are located at level 1, and outpatient services are at level 2. Level 1 is separated into four general patient care suites (or neighborhoods), which are modularly designed to accommodate a flexible number of patient beds. Patients have ample access to daylight through a series of interior courtyards, an exterior secure yard, and south-facing bedrooms that are kept private from public eye through elevated landscaping and vegetation. Additionally safety and security are monitored through multiple systems, anti-ligature hardware, custom doors, special glazing, and more. These elements are integrated through careful design to make the environment communal and welcoming for the patients and staff. Level 2 serves outpatients that are allowed to return home to their daily lives, but continue treatment within the BHS building. This connects to a prominent double-height lobby that serves as the focal point for the building. 17

University of California Berkeley Way West - Berkeley, CA The University of California’s Berkeley Way West academic office building serves as a replacement to the Berkeley campus’s Tolman Hall building. It houses the School of Education, the Department of Psychology, and the School of Public Health. Formed as two interlocking L’s, the building creates two multilevel atrium spaces called “Forums“, which are staggered and connected by a level as they move up the building. The program is generated off these volumes, starting with informal social spaces around the Upper and Lower Forums, and moving to meeting spaces and open offices. The least public areas, the private offices, are located around the perimeter of the building. Access to daylighting is very important in the large floor plan. The Upper Forum is capped with a skylight that brings daylighting into the core of each level. And all rooms along the perimeter are lined with demountable glazed partitions. Dividers at cubicles and furniture are kept low to allow unobstructed views out. The university also takes the role of a private developer with the Berkeley Way West building. Levels six through eight are leased to private tenants, with the idea that once revenue goals are met and the needs of the university expand, these top levels will revert to university occupancy. Retail and storefront space are also used at ground level where the building interfaces with the street. 35

Cal State University Parking Structure E - Los Angeles, CA California State University, Los Angeles is currently ranked as the number one public university for upward mobility of their student population. With this success is a need to expand their facilities while introducing more long-term sustainable strategies. Parking Structure E is a roughly 735,000 square foot, five story open parking garage at the northwestern corner of the campus. It connects on level one and level three to an existing three level Parking Structure C at its south side. At both of these levels, Parking Structure E is meant as a continuation of the Campus Pedestrian Spine that serves as the main walking path through the university. This new parking structure also provides a surplus of car parking stalls (as well as additional motorcycle stalls) for the university, based on the original RFP requirements. These include ADA parking, compact, clean air vehicle, electric vehicle charging stalls, and electric vehicle fast-charging stalls. Sustainable features include a full array of photovoltaic panels at level five (including battery storage at level one), storm water management bioswales around the perimeter of the structure, LED lighting, and no mechanical ventilation. 47

Sonoma Academy Janet Durgin Guild & Commons - Santa Rosa, CA Sonoma Academy is a nonprofit, private coed college preparatory high school with strong values in creating a culture and community of inventiveness. The Janet Durgin Guild & Commons building uses these values as a means to teach. The 19,500 square foot design-bid-build project houses spaces for a makers guild, digital media studios, student support services, an all induction commercial kitchen with indoor and outdoor dining, a teaching kitchen, as well as outdoor patios and gardens that grow some of the food used in the teaching kitchen and dining facilities. The building also utilizes water reclamation and reuse, photovoltaic panels, a green roof, operable windows and sliding screens for passive cooling strategies, radiant system controls, and deep overhangs, all of which contribute to its LEED Platinum certification. These sustainable strategies are put on display as a means to teach. It encourages creativity with the connection between the school and community, the natural environment, and the regional economy.

826 Valencia Mission Bay Center - San Francisco, CA 826 Valencia is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting under-resourced students with their writing skills. As the third location in San Francisco, this pro bono writing center is in the Mission Bay district, within an affordable housing development. The more recent development of the Mission Bay district has made this writing center one of the only gathering places for these under-resourced children in their neighborhood. In the spirit of the 826 programs, the Mission Bay Center is imagined as whimsical and playful: a means to inspire creativity and adventure in its students. With the theme of an “Enchanted Forest“ the tenant improvement project starts with a storefront dubbed the “Woodland Creature Outfitters, Ltd.“ that showcases student publications, sells unique woodland curiosities, and attracts future volunteers and donors. Many local businesses, builders, artists, and students were involved in the makings of this project. From a book-hanging mushroom tree, to a reading cave, to a rock-pool stage, these elements were collaborated on with the vision of a special environment for students to learn, tutor, and be inspired. 67

USF SACD M.Arch Selected Works - Tampa, FL The following pages are a selection of projects during my time in the four year M.Arch program at the University of South Florida School of Architecture and Community Design. These projects span from the whimsical speculation of an abstract journey to the development of a natatoriumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s building systems; from the massive scale of an office skyscraper to the intimacy of a small tea house. These projects are what helped to shape me as a designer, and they mark important stepping stones along the way to my personal development, pre-professional practice. It was here that I nurtured my love of craft and detail, of context and place-making, of creative usability and interactive design. It was also here during this time that I learned how to simultaneously stay productive and never get enough sleep.

Sojourn in Silence In the exploration to determine ways in which a more compelling and emotive experience can be imagined, this thesis project seeks to merge individual and at first seemingly unrelated mediums together. In this case, architecture is juxtaposed with music, and with it the notion of a journey is woven in as a stitch to calcify the formula. The combination of music and architecture inform a unique type of process in which pieces of music were created in sync with drawings and models to explain all the parts of a complete journey. This journey was split into a series of six unique nodes. Each node coincides with the pinnacle of a particular type of experience, a fragment of the whole sojourn. These nodes are tenderness (node .001), chaos (node .002), anger (node .003), anticipation (node .004), joy (node .005), and love (node .006). Seen opposite are a series of graphics exploring the individual components of the journey, listed in the same order from top left to bottom right. The spaces that were created for these nodes each took on their own unique character to emphasize what they represent. Their context and their forms and spatial flow are tied to the soundscape that best represents them. That way, each node has its own particular context that works both visually and aurally with the emotive qualities the created spaces attempt to evoke. 81

But each uses its context in some way to craft an aural journey throughout the architecture, whether that sound be about overwhelming noise or the immersion of silence. They are each unique, but they are each part of a cohesive whole. They make up a complete journey that challenges new ways in which architecture can be thought about and provided for others. 83

Tampa Office Tower / Photography Museum The main program of this design project is to develop a Class A office tower to be built in downtown Tampa, the first of its kind in downtown for over two decades. Additionally the first few floors are designated for the relocation of The Florida Museum of Photographic Arts, as well as a sculpture garden, public park space, and a few shops along the street edge. The complex also houses a parking garage, and sits adjacent to another plot of land meant for a future hotel tower. The city of Tampa is currently in development of a river walk that runs along the Hillsborough River, with the goal of bringing more people back to the downtown core. The siting of this complex runs along Brorein Street, which terminates at one of the major nodes of the river walk. This design project aims to help stitch the development of this river walk together by bringing a pedestrian path up through the city that connects with a now defunct historical road named Cumberland Street. Evidence of this street can be seen on the old brickwork still laid on the site that slices its way through the architecture and up the office tower.

New World Symphony Cafe and Residences New World Symphony is an orchestral academy located in Miami, FL. Its purpose is to prepare some of the most elite graduates of various music schools for positions in orchestras around the world. This design project is meant to be a second informal piece of architecture for the school, or in other words a satellite campus. It is nestled in an alleyway close to the water, bending its way through the narrow angled space it sits in. The building contains a permanent living space for a staff member and a temporary residence for alternating students, as well as numerous other program such as a studio, a performance space, a cafe, and a gift shop. The angles that organize the space are derived from site lines, and are also used to frame views of the street and the beach. The models shown opposite are initial studies used to determine how the spaces work off of the nearby context, and how views are carried through the spaces. There is also a central light well nestled within the center of the building that brings light down into the lower spaces throughout, helping to illuminate what is an otherwise somewhat dim alleyway.

Tea House The tea house is a place of rest, one in which people of all statuses and backgrounds put aside their differences and become men of equals, sharing in a common humble experience under the same roof. This tea house uses a certain simplicity of form as a means to communicate this humble nature. One who finds themselves in the incredible Red Beach of China will hopefully stumble upon this tea house during their travels, and approach by way of bare landscape. Bare stone steps lead up to a five foot high ladder that connects to an outdoor waiting room with a tsukubai, or wash basin, and a bench with a space to store shoes beneath. One must duck down as they slide open a door and step up to enter the tea house. The floor is a rounded 4.5 tatami mat room, and the ceiling is too low to allow any standing, ensuring that no one may impose their stature and everyone remains an equal. Spatial relationships lead the eye down and outwards toward the beautiful natural landscape of the Red Beach. This is accomplished through the use of a semi-translucent dome overhead and a ribbon window that wraps around the tea house. Another door on the opposite side opens up to a balcony that faces to the west. This is the outdoor tea room, meant to watch the sunset as orange sky meets red beach. 99

The word mitate comes from the idea of a new point of view. Mitate seeks to see something from a new light, used in a way that surprises the viewer. Using this definition, I sought to create something new out of a found object: a K-cup. A K-cup is the leftover waste from a device many architects are familiar with: a Keurig coffee and tea maker. The cup holds the coffee grounds or tea leaves, and has a hole poked through the top and bottom that allows water to be ran through, making the drink. My answer was to use them as a living container that may regrow the tea previously used in them. Both tea leaves and coffee grounds that have been used can be mixed with soil and used to give nutrients to new plants. And because of the way that a K-cup is used, the hole the Keurig maker pokes in the bottom of the cups is perfect for filtration of excess water that is used with these new potted tea plants. The tea house may use this system to grow tea plants that can either be used to make the tea that is served or sold to interested customers. As for how the K-cups are actually applied to the tea house, I developed a movable system that holds the cups in place and can be rotated into two different positions. Once outstreched and vertical, the K-cups are ready to be potted and allowed access to the sun. When not used, the mechanism recedes and rotates sideways. This keeps them from blocking access to sunlight for other cups, and also creates a skin system for the tea house that catches light and filters it into the space of the tea house through the hollow K-cups. 100

Natatorium / Boathouse The site on the Hillsborough River in downtown Tampa was once an active area, bustling with people and activity centered around the river. In recent times, this connection with the water has been lost, and activity on the site has ceased. The intention is to reactivate this space by recreating how people interact with and experience the water, giving a new life to the place. Sky meets water, with light as the force that joins them. The idea is to have the developing Tampa River Walk continue to the west, forming a datum line that traverses through a natatorium and a boathouse. This develops a public domain that celebrates both the river and the land. The architecture is structured in a way that brings light into a space through water, taking advantage of the reflection, refraction, and variation of tone that light and water can create. This is done with a floating Olympic swimming and diving pool that is suspended above the first floor of the natatoruim, with a series of reveals casting light down below. Water becomes floor, wall, and ceiling, moulding a hollistic experience for the inhabitant that is brought to life with the introduction of the sky and the light. 105

Natatorium / Boathouse 420 West Oak Avenue, Tampa, FL 33602

The boathouse and nataorium complex is located on the Hillsborough River beside Tampa’s old trolley barn, as well as its old waterworks building and the natural spring that used to be the city’s main source of water. Boathouse and natatorium are split across an old inlet dug out from the river, with the river walk bridging the gap between them. A grid shift occurs where the natatorium happens on the second floor, turning to frame a view of the nearby downtown Tampa. Scale: 5’ 10’ 20’
