VISUALIZATION Jean-Paul Viguier Fall 2016

Throughout my internship I worked on a number of different projects working primarily with 3d visualizations and graphics. This work entailed 3d modeling of projects for renderings and technical façade systems. I produced rendered elevations, facades, rendered detailed sections and other graphics for presentations. Above is an example of one of numerous façade detail models I developed for presentations.

GA GROUP HEADQUARTERS Jean-Paul Viguier Rouen, France

From June through July I worked on the GA Group regional headquarters located in the ZAC de la Plain de la Ronce outside of Roan, Normandy. This 8,000 square meter building is designed to be entirely prefabricated to bring down construction costs with a layout that fosters interaction between employees. I worked directly under project architect, Michale Shamieh AIA and assisted with Revit documentation, layout options, sun studies and the design of the building’s brise soleil.

TIMBER CITY Lower East Side, NYC Fall 2015 Professor: Chad Kraus

Located in the Lower East Side of Manhattan, New York City, and part of the Timber in the City competition this project was designed entirely using mass timber construction methods. Consisting of 200,000 square feet of affordable housing of 4 different apartment types, 50,000 square feet of the Essex street market and 50,000 square feet of an Andy Warhol museum this mixed use project was driven by the concept of carving.Conceptually starting with a solid mass and using the sun as the driving force to determine how parts of the mass would be carved away to maximize sunlight throughout the building. The structure of the building is arandomized diagrid system that creates an exoskeletal structure to balance lateral forces created by the building’s massive tilting form.The form is intended to provide shade to the south sides of the building. The randomized nature is meant to mimic the appearance of a forest and reduce the sense of a monolithic mega structure. The skin of the building is covered in louvers. The distance between them expand in areas where one would view out from their apartment, creating a rippling pattern on the façade. The louvers then drape down off the side of the building and become steps to the museum and create a place of gathering between the buildings.

JUDD MUSEUM Kansas City, Mo Fall 2014 Professor: Nilou Vakil

Conceptually driven by the notion of parallax, the museum’s rising and falling form is intended to create a continuallychanging perspective while the interior galleries are designed to allow for art to be viewed from numerous vantage points to change the viewer’s perception of a piece of art by changing their perspective view. All of which is based around the site specific nature of Donald Judd’s work, most notably that of Marfa, TX.

AUSTIN COURTHOUSE Austin, TX Spring 2016 Professor: John Trefry Partners: Erik Stockler, Zach Zilkie

Prior to the initial design process, my colleges and I developed a clear set of design values that would ultimately keep our design decisions in tack and within the bounds of our initial concept. Notions of tailoring an object to its physical context served as the fundamental concept behind many of our design decisions. As the studio progressed, our intention for the project was to adapt the current notion of a courthouse with our desire to merge the program with public space being that our site lay at a key point of social interaction and commerce within the down town core. To minimize the footprint of our 500,000 square foot of courthouse and maintain as much green space as possible and to minimize blocking the view of the building to our immediate south, we decided to build vertically in a narrow tower. At the base, floor plates are echoed downward and kick out to create public gathering points within the building and ultimately terminate in a public space at ground level. A scrim was designed to shade the exposed faces to allow for the public space to be used year round regardless of the summer sun’s intensity.

KUKA ROBOTICS University of Kansas SF S Fal alll 20 2 15Andrew Manto Part Pa rtne rt tne n rss: Dr D ew Hin inde derl rlit iterr, Se Sella Lim ma

The design intent of the pr projejejct was to create a form made of EPS foaam desi designe gnedd us using Grassghopper and fabricated with the use of a KUKA KA ro robot bot th that at cou couldld be occ occupi upiedd and used by students. Located in the main corridor bridge between the architecture and art & design schools, myself along with fellow M.Arch students, Drew Hinderlitter and Stella Lima designed a form based on the con concep ceptt of of a cave. ve.Th Thee noti not onn of one large sweeping carve rve to remove material and create a placee whe where re students could sit and read andd rela elaxx between classes.




Two main base rail curves create the general form

Adjusted curves for greater texture. Sitting zone designed with smoother texture for comfort

Upper curve pulled outward to create the sense of a cave

Divided into smaller units to be cut by the KUKA
