MONIE BAY RESEARCH FACILITY FALL 2018 | GRADUATE STUDIO I
Location: Monie Bay, Somerset County MD Duration: One Semester Professors: Brittany Williams, Amy Gardner, Julie Gabrielli Team Member: Amanda Sparks Skills: Revit, Photoshop, Illustrator, Sefaira, Model-Making DESIGN STRATEGY
The Monie Bay Research Facility is a sustainable and practical project which fosters an awareness of the built and natural environment in its occupants and visitors. The building is an education tool to advance the research and outreach of the National Estuary Reserve System. The facility is organized into three seperate buildings organized on a ten by ten grid and within twenty foot modules. The three separate buildings allow all elements of the project to be producing energy at all times but open up the possibility of being able to close down buildings not in use during particular seasons. Since the occupancy of the research center varies greatly over the year, they would be able to store or sell energy to the grid during low use times. Separating the building also allows the workers to separate work and leisure time, as well as provide them with privacy. SITE PLAN

INTERSTITIAL SPACE SPRING 2017 | UNDERGRADUATE STUDIO II
Location: University of Maryland Campus Duration: Three Weeks Professors: Georgeanne Matthews Skills: Rhino, Model-Making
DESIGN STRATEGY
The University of Maryland is a hub of activity within the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area, making it a prime location to be a tram stop for the proposed above-ground purple line metro rail. The tram stop site location is on the very edge of campus, intending to filter in users from all directions of travel and act as a crossroads between ‘Here and There’: the University and beyond. This pause between direction and place is designed to be sculptural and unique, with billowing forms above triangular seating and convenience areas, and a curved lighting system covering a central plaza.

THE ARTS AT BLAGDEN ALLEY FALL 2017 | UNDERGRADUATE STUDIO III
Location: Blagden Alley, Washington, D.C. Duration: Four Weeks Professors: Daniel Curry Skills: SketchUp, Photoshop, Model-Making
DESIGN STRATEGY
In recent years, Washington D.C.’S Blagden Alley has been rising in prominence for its artistic appeal. The addition of a performing arts center within the Alley provides nearby artists and performers with a center for creativity. The design of the facility blends the arts and performances occuring inside with the street art and activities outside the building and throughout the alley. The fluidity of the design emphasizes the blended relationship between the arts center, the alley, and the residents surrounding it.

LARGO TOWN CENTRE FALL 2019 | GRADUATE STUDIO III
Location: Largo, Prince George’s County MD Duration: Six Weeks Professors: Matt Bell Team Members: Mansoor Ahmed, Tochi Ohakawa Skills: Sketch-Up, AutoCAD, Photoshop, Illustrator, Model-Making
DESIGN STRATEGY
Largo Town Center is adjacent to I-495 and is in close proximity to an underused metro station and sparingly-utilized football stadium. For this project, the site was divided into thirds, with the Northeastern District being one segment of the larger site. The Northeastern District was designed with office buildings along a major arterial road as well as a mix of various residential building types, including both small and large apartment complexes as well as row homes. The layout of the residential buildings follows a grid superimposed on top of existing streets but with a new connection between the other districts and the major roads adjacent to the site. The residential blocks face in towards a new park designed to connect the existing lake on the south end of the site to grassy areas on the north end of the site. The park introduces new space for activities and connection between the diverse population living in the area.

Children’s National Brainy Camps is an oasis for children with chronic health conditions who want to just be a kid for a week while putting their daily challenges to the side. Mattaponi is the location for their new facility, and this design proposal utilizes existing barns as well as proposes new facilities to house the campers and all of their activities. The site plan juxtaposes a grid system with the existing buildings on the site to create a new sense of organization and wayfinding for the campers, both with pathways and vegetation. The natatorium was placed in the southwest corner of the site, adjacent to an existing lake, and was designed with the intent to be a series of baths for every child’s comfort level.

BLAGDEN ALLEY APARTMENTS FALL 2017 | UNDERGRADUATE STUDIO III
Location: Blagden Alley, Washington, D.C. Duration: Four Weeks Professors: Dan Curry Skills: SketchUp, Photoshop, Model-Making
DESIGN STRATEGY
The apartments in D.C.’s Blagden Alley house artists and performers in the rising neighborhood. The apartments are located across from the Performing Arts Center in Blagden Alley, and a connection is fostered between the two. The site contains apartments, a gallery space, and a courtyard. The gallery connected to the apartments is the bridge between the public and private realms of the Alley, and the courtyard is a flexible extension of the gallery that welcomes visitors in Bladgen Alley. The contemporary, low-rise apartments respond to the growth of the prominence of art in the neighborhood while fostering community between residents, visitors, and the surrounding locations.
