The unconditioned space consists of steel vertical members, steel beams, and concrete floors; an industrial work feel appropriate for where the boats are stored and maintained. The conditioned space sits above and shifts from steel structural members to wood glulam, wood floors, and glass. The orientation of the building allows for passive heating/cooling where the cladding on the roof extends past the balconies to block the sun. The top of the glulam was then raised to allow for operable windows to create natural ventilation.

Both spaces are divided into three categories according to usage; varsity, community, and shared program. The shared space is situated in the middle, creating an easily assessable central hub for the two different users to inhabit.

the organebr端cke highlights the opportunities that the original bridge possesses, by dropping the structure down on the west side of the bridge this opens an unobstructed view to museum island and the performance boats that can dock in the water.

berlin is an active city, the organebr端cke provides a new opportunity for this energy to be concentrated and celebrated through its programming. this new urban gesture activates and engages the transitory space with its outdoor cafe and campground for the young people that frequently, at the minimum just pass through the city on their travels.

B a n gko k C oa s tal H igh R ise The project seeks to create a supportive infrastructure through a combination of an architecture and urban analysis. tourists + indigenous people benefit from the elevated structure due to programs designed within the podium + tower; relieving the locals from bi-annual floods and producing numerous opportunities to generate revenue, forming symbiotic relationship.

M e ta L i b r ary The library’s programmatic and spatial organization is dictated by the stacks. this organization agent acts as a usage protocol and adjacency indicator by expanding and surrounding rooms that generate the noetic and contracting from those that do not actively assist in the search.

The meta library’s role is to act as a facilitator, staging events within the architecture that inspire idea generation. The process of researching a thesis within the library is similar to the progression of a vine climbing to the sun; as the bud grows it extends upward, producing offspring that expand outward, each vine reaches into new territory though all sharing the same goal to get as close as they can to the source.

G r a duat e D o r mi to ry The theory behind the graduate housing is conservation. A simple task by which a generic form of a building block footprint is manipulated and deformed to create a more accessible organization of program. Through the act of hinging by proportion the process gave the project variation, unique day lighting strategies, and a visual unifying facade opportunities.
