WATERFRONT MUSEUM DATE: JANUARY 2016- APRIL 2016 TYPE: COLLABORATION (SECOND YEAR ARCHITECTURE DESIGN) CONTRIBUTORS: SHARMALL NOEL The follow design is proposed for a new Museum at Waterfront, incorporating different aspects of sustainability and a sense of community. This Museum was designed with keen attention paid to its surrounding landscape and keeping in mind interior considerations such as the ambience; organizational layout and quality of light. A sense of openness and freedom was created with the use of curtain walls at strategic positions to let sunlight into the building. The South and East sides of the building are designed to be wavelike in fashion as they face the lake; creating a connection with the museum and the water movement. This wavelike concept from the walls was applied to the roof’s design as well. The walls, coupled with the roof structure all played into the whole idea of keeping the building structure fluid and free giving the building a dignified look in the process.

VICTORIA SQUARE RENOVATION DATE: JANUARY 2017- APRIL 2017 TYPE: COLLABORATION (THIRD YEAR ARCHITECTURE DESIGN) CONTRIBUTORS: SHARMALL NOEL This collaborative effort was completed in the third year architecture design course in the fall semester. As a collaborative effort, the focus of the project was to create a mixed use plaza with 4 units that had retail stores on the first floor and residential unit on the top floor. Combined effort were used to strategically design the units with the closest demographics in mind. The following renderings show the various units presented in the plaza: music learning center, cafe, dentist and ballet studio.

COACH HOUSE DATE: JANUARY 2015- APRIL 2015 TYPE: INDIVIDUAL & COLLABORATION (THIRD YEAR ARCHITECTURE DESIGN) CONTRIBUTORS: SHARMALL NOEL The individual work of this project was to create a set of hand sketched floor plans, elevations, sections, details and multiple options for second floor living spaces. General conditions and lot were given to every individual. The collaborative effort of this project was to create a model with a partner of one of set of drawings completed in the individual assignment. A cross section would cut through a latitudinal cross section and the model would represent all construction elements from the foundation and drainage system to the roof. Scaling materials & identifying construction procedures.

ROOFTOP HUT DATE: MARCH 2018- MAY 2018 TYPE: WORK EXPERIENCE TITLE: ARCHITECTURAL TECHNOLOGY RESEARCH STUDENT The following project conducted by the building science department of George Brown College and their professors, was to build 6 wall types with different wall assemblies to understand the influence of different air barrier systems. The interaction between the wall layers and specific air barriers were tested by placing moisture content, relative humidity and temperature sensors within the wall assemblies and monitored for 1 year. My work was to model the entire project with the 6 wall types, their specific layers and appropriate labelling.

CLIMATE SIMULATOR DATE: JANUARY 2018 - APRIL 2018 TYPE: WORK EXPERIENCE TITLE: ARCHITECTURAL RESEARCH STUDENT The project was to create a moveable unit with exterior and interior conditions seperated by a generic wall type to test results of different HVAC units to control the interior conditions. My work on this project was to model individually the 2 sides of the simulator with a stud wall in the middle and to provide the client with a visual understanding of how the simulator can be moved in and out to replace wall types and HVAC units. Modeling and movement were the key interests for my work.

BUILDING MANAGEMENT DATE: SEPTEMBER 2018- DECEMBER 2018 TYPE: INDIVIDUAL (SECOND YEAR CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT) The purpose of this project was to take a step further from modeling a 3D model into managing the project. Once the model was accurately, created with elements in their respective groups, a timeline schedule was created from the foundation to the operating phase. With the addition of schedule, an estimate of each groups were calculated using the unit quanity pricing. After that clash detection reports were produced between groups to identify if there were any discrepancies in the model that needed to be fixed and sufficient comments were provided for them.
