CURRENT WORKS This is a sheet metal 2 week material investigation. This focused on coming up with an innovative solution to use galvanized sheet metal as an exterior building envelope. This was a hands on project. We were introduced to new machines such as the Water Jet. My solution is a sunshading skin system that acts as a secondary building envelope. My design is structurally supported through a triangular folding concept. This project got us excited for the ASIC Steel Competition that we are entering this semester where we are to design an innovative steel building in a dense urban environment of our choice.
Material Investigation: Sheet Metal

PROCESS OF BUILDING THE MODEL
I used the Water Jet to cut my sheet metal into the correct dimensions. Then I had to bend my material. Because of limitations, I had to think of innovative ways to bend the metal such as clamping the metal and hammering.

This semester was healthcare focused. We collaborated with FKP and Cannon in Houston throughout our design process. We started the semester by each individually developing concept models based on the program and site conditions. Then at the midterm the firm picked three concepts to develop in groups. One of the three concepts to develop was my concept of two separated functions connected together through a main gathering space incorporating the rich culture of Uganda and that this design was for children.

Only 10% of African’s survive cancer as apposed to the 80% of Americans that survive the disease. To help resolve this tragedy we have partnered with FKP-Cannon Design and Texas Children’s Hospital to design a Children’s Pediatric Cancer Hospital located in Uganda, Africa. Some important goals we wanted to achieve in our design were providing an environment that engages, calms, delights and heals the patients. Being that this design is for young children, our concept was to bring the outdoors inside, creating a playful environment. We achieved this by taking advantage of our sloped site, creating roof gardens and incorporating natural light and ventilation throughout the hospital. The main public spaces, such as the waiting area and atrium, are open and utilize the views in our site. The more private areas, which include the Inpatient wards and Labs, are on the upper floors to ensure more discretion.

This project was a 1 week "warm up project� that was a research building proposal by George Bush Library in College Station, Texas. We worked with a client that gave us feed back through out the week. During this semester I attended the Architecture-for-Health lecture series that promotes the idea of how to make buildings more health conscious. This includes walkable environments and bringing natural light into a work place. Our concept encouraged people to walk and gather through a centralized courtyard. It also included circulation around that courtyard creating an interactive and dynamic environment.

Initial form
Our team designed a Research Personnel Building located at Texas A&M University on West campus. This site is located by the Transportation Institute and is adjacent to the George Bush Library Complex. There is an axis that continues throughout the campus that we respected in our design and suggest that would be a pedestrian dominant pathway. We are proposing a building that utilizes the dynamic views of campus, maximize natural night and an interior that is flexible and configurable. The form of our building came from our concepts of bringing in as much natural light as possible as well as invite people to come inside while creating an interactive environment. The 2 wings represent different programs.

CRAIG BABE
This was a 10 week project located on Texas A&M Universities Archirecture Quad. It was a building extension to the Architecture Building, Landford. This extension would function as a library, cafeteria and gathering space. Being that the context is located in the Historic Zone of campus, my concept was to preserve as much green space as possible and respect the axis of the campus master plan. I acheived this by designing a direct-connection to Langford’s basement underground. I created a inviting entrance by studying the desired path that students travel through campus and incorporating that in my design.

San Antonio Riverwalk 3D model
Nolli Plan of San Antonio Tourist Loop at the Riverwalk. Measure the postive and negative space of this city.
In this project we evaluated the denseness of urban environments. We studied gris patterns, origins and urban development around water. Everyone in the class picked a dense urban city to model. We were to use a 3D printer to print these models and compare the results. This was my first time using the 3D printer and I will definitley be using it again to model future projects.

This 4 week project was based on the 50k rural studio houses that come from shipping containers. We had to be conservative with our approach because it is afforabe housing. So I chose a simplistic, symmetrical plan and program in order to acheive privacy in such a small square footage.
AXIS HOUSE
SPRING 2017 PHILLOP TABB
This project is based in Serenbe, Georgia and is inspired by an innovative team of students that design low-income housing units called “Rural Studio.” We had a budget of 50k and only 650 total square feet to design a house. This project seeks to address the need for affordable housing and provide an alternative to the normal low-income housing that are small, affordable and efficient. I chose to have my plan symmetrical and on an axis, so that one he or she enters through the porch trellis one can see a clear view of the scenery. I picked a gable roof that is maximum 14’ high in the common areas such as the kitchen, living and dining room in order to make those areas more open and spacious. There is a minimum 9’ in the private areas such as the bedrooms, bathrooms and closet.

GREEN TO GO LIVE-WORK UNIT
SPRING 2017
This project is based in Serenbe, Georgia, which is a growing community. We were each required to design a live-work building in which the commercial function would benefit the community. I chose to have my commercial space function as a placewhere one can come and grab healthy food on the go. It was important to design a space that made the commercial floor very visiable and accessible to the public. My specific lot was 26’X26’, which is a total of 676 total square feet. My building is 4 stories tall, 1 commercial on the first floor and 3 residential. I designed the residential balconies so that the residences get a direct view to the plaza. My floor plan concept was to have an open floor plan to make the small spaces seem larger.
We started this project by doing a site analysis and creating “ideograms” from the conditions of our specific site. We combined some of these ideas to create our concepts.

ANNE NICHOLS
This project analysis load distribution hands on by designing and constructing our own couch cardboard model, as well as using the engineering program Multiframe to complete our analysis.
COUCH PROJECT: STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS
BUILDING THE MODEL
The requirements of the project included the sole use of recycled single-ply corrugated cardboard, cloth, rope and glue. The hanging structure we constructed was a couchswing that was designed to support two people with a weight that varied from 100 bs-130 lbs. The couch was tested on January 31, 2017 where the couch successfully supported the two loads combined without collapsing. Part II of the project consists of analyzing and evaluating part I of the project by using structural principles learned over the course of the semester. Part II also consists of a report to document and evaluate model structural behavior, classify connection, and quantify capacity. With all these things kept in mind, the overall purpose is to improve the structure and document every improvement.

FINAL PRODUCT
We learned that the strongest structural support on our couch project was the truss support. If we replaced the L’shaped middle component with a truss similar to the ones we made on each side, it would prevent the sagging of the top beam when pressure is applied to it as well as the buckling of the middle beam. To reduce the deflection in the beam, we could either add more beams which creates redundancy and distributes loads equally, or we could make the cross section larger to increase strength in each beam.
POINT LOAD ANALYSIS We created our cardboard couch design in Multiframe with Point loads for the loads to see the worst possible outcomes.

DISTRIBUTED LOAD ANALYSIS
SIDE ELEVATION
For this Analysis we changed how the cloth was attached to the structural members because we believed that the load that the cloth faces from being sat upon contributed to the bending we saw in the horizontal pieces. However, according to the multiframe simulation the distribution of the load on cloth is not the source of the issue.
Received “TOP KNOTCH AWARD” for the best structural design in the class

This was my first year in studio design. We learned about basic design principals and how buildings relate to context. This semester I made many hand models and graphic hand sketches.
ABSTRACT
CUBE
Design was based on the asic design principals of extraction and repitition. By extracting and repeating it created a variety of different spacial conditions and hierarchy.
Hand Sketch of Cube Design
RECTANGLE This was a concept like the cube. PIcking design terms and then design a structure from it. My words were subtraction, addition and repetition.
PIANO The ascending long rectangular cubes interlocking with ascending square cubes represent the black and white keys of the piano. The diagonal wooden sticks represent what happens behind the piano when a key is strung. The horizontal sticks represent the strings inside the piano that produce the sound when struck by the hammer. As the pitch gets higher to produce the treble pitch, the strings get longer. The sticks representsenting the bass pitch are shown to the shorter . The curvature of the side opposite the keys represents the body of a typical grand piano. 44
I was inspired by the flow of a river for this project. This project is a riverwalk proposal for a community center in San Antonio. It has an open central courtyard that is the hierarchy of this project. The curves in the form respond to the topography. Overlapping elements create a creative form of shade.
