This portfolio contains work from my years of undergraduate architectural study. Through those years, I was able to gain some of the best instruction in the field, study the built environment and theory in America and Europe, and gain skill in both hand and computer modeling and drawing.

approach The main entry for the building was designed to be very open and welcoming to the community. This was done through the use of a large glass entryway and took advantage of its location on a prominent street corner. Upon entering, one was met with a sequence of spaces located off of a large atrium space. These sequence of spaces were meant to signify the important aspects of the building that included a sanctuary for worship, an outdoor courtyard for self reflection, and a gymnasium for community growth. Altogether, the facility strives to help strengthen the community.

- To create multiple open spaces to encourage interaction between users.

After a detailed study of the greater Chicago area, the conclusion was made to use the northern suburb of Evanston as the location for the proposed building. Evanston was chosen based on its high number of transit options including the CTA Purple Line, the Metra Union Pacific North Line, the CTA Bus System, and numerous bike and pedestrian routes. The site was also selected for its racial diversity which was perceived to be a possible advantage for a multi-faith facility.
- To successfully utilize natural daylighting techniques.
- Unio
site selection
- To create a building that would both benefit the Jewish and Christian groups as well as the members of the community.
Metra
With the ever growing cost of operating and maintaining a building, the problem was presented to design a worship facility to be located in the greater Chicago metropolitan area that could be utilized by both the Christian and Jewish faiths. The facility would be designed in a series of two phases. Phase one would be centered around the worship experience while phase two would be centered around a community aspect.

background Situated in the densely populated suburb of Chicago, the proposed public market would serve as a nice addition to the Oak Park community and would include space for an interior and exterior market as well as a community gathering and banquet space.
site information The site for the proposed market is situated along Lake St. just west of Oak Park Ave. It is bordered on both sides by residential buildings while the public library and a small park are located across the street. With the location set in such a highly pedestrian used area, the thought was that the market could be used as a connector between the park and the other pedestrian areas.

objectives - To create a space that has a very understandable sequence of circulation. - To incorporate and connect to the walkable alleys and paths in order to bring in more potential customers. - To create a year-round “open-air� atmosphere for the indoor market.
Lake Street
- To allow for views of the park and surrounding green space.
approach The curved nature of the market was designed for the purpose of creating a connection to an ally located in the southeast corner of the building. This ally is a connector to many shops and other forms of retail while also connecting to a main thoroughfare and rail transit. The main structure of the market as well as the banquet room was designed to appear as if they were protruding out into the park. This was done in order to establish a stronger connection with the adjacent park.

- Design a facility that both allows for the public to become familiar with Horizons for the Blind while also enhancing the surrounding downtown area of Crystal Lake - Create a comfortable and functional work area for employees - Allow for the public and private areas to be easily distinguished
ill
Located just south of the heart of downtown Crystal Lake, IL and employing a large number of blind and non-sighted individuals, Horizons for the Blind was designed to house the offices and production spaces needed for the company that specializes in the printing of service bills and other such documents in braille form. Along with the production and administration needs, there also existed a vision to create a community-oriented aspect that would bring awareness to the work and vision of Horizons for the Blind.

approach site information The site holds a very prominent location in downtown Crystal Lake. Because it sits on the major intersection of Crystal Lake Avenue and Williams Street, it is seen by numerous amounts of traffic every day. The site is also accessible by a Metra line and the Pace Bus service.
A large, multi-level atrium was designed in order to create an open space that could act as both an entrance/reception area as well as a buffer between the public and private spaces of the building. This element created a twowinged approach that held a majority of the production and administration functions to one wing of the building and the community spaces to the other. This was done to help with the circulation of the facility as well as to allow for minimal disturbance for employees while still having the capacity to allow members of the community to use the designated spaces.

cube project | ARC 251 | fall 2009 project synapsis The project began by painting two squares that reflected a certain historical art movement. These paintings were then subsequently translated into a three dimensional model which focused on creating spacial qualities. Each cube in the model corresponds to a painting.
