Jungle Bungalow

Ground-Up Construction, residential Troncones, MEX | 2022 - ongoing $340,000 USD; 2,250 SF My best friend's parents are retiring in Mexico. As both a general contractor and Grateful Dead fan, her dad spent a month driving solo across the country to scout where to spend their golden years. He found Troncones, Guerrero: a quiet town of locals and expats who love to surf, cook, and dance together in their oceanside community. Once they'd purchased the land they called me and asked me to site, layout, and detail their dream home before we'd pass it to a local Mexican architect for translation and administration. They'd manage its construction. It was the very reason I'd wanted to become an architect: the chance to work with people I love tailoring a space that reflected their dreams and desires. The house is on track to complete construction in the spring. ­— role: design architect programming, concepting, schematic design, design development, detailing

PROGRAMMING AND CONCEPTUAL PROCESS The layout of the home was the result of synthesizing spatial adjacency requirements and its double-story program with the sloped nature of the site.

PROGRAMMING AND CONCEPTUAL WORK The project was unique in its hyper-locality: a thick jungle landscape, bare-bones utilities (electricity but no plumbing or sewer), and construction methods that capitalized on the ingenuity of labor in the absence of affordable lumber. The house was essentially cast-in-place among the jungle. The concrete frame is infilled with bricks that are dug out as clay, shaped, and fired just miles up the road from the project. It was a lot of fun to learn from the workers and adjust my design to the parameters of the site and its implications on the house's form. The clients and I settled on a design that embraced the steep slope: an oversized traditional thatch roof to shelter from both road noise and tropical sun and storms and a two-story program that gestures towards their view of the Pacific Ocean.

Process Site Section (looking south) The design process was iterative and interactive: every week the clients and I sat at their kitchen table and critiqued while I sketched and modeled their feedback in real time. The exaggerated hipped roof is both formal and functional. Stormwater runoff, views, natural ventilation, and acoustics all played a role in shaping the extremely contextual material that contrasts with the solidity of the house's concrete. The lower level program carves into the building's stone site wall for year-round temperature control for visitors.

Wall Section The tropical, temperate, and ocean-side location of the house means the elements are an inevitable guest rather than an unwelcome intruder. Modern insulation and barriers, mechanical conditioning— even glass in the window panes—are eschewed for their cost and logistical unavailability. Instead, traditional and contextual methods shade, shield, and regulate the home's thermal comfort. It was a process of "unlearning" some of my contemporary architectural detailing experience.

Jungle Bungalow The entry floor is intended as a standalone unit for year-round living and, eventually, aging-in-place. In plan the diagram is simple: offices and the primary bed and bathroom have access to sunlight all day while shielding the main volume of the house from southern solar gain. Windows are strategically located for views to the landscape and ocean sunset from bed while remaining private from group gathering areas like the outdoor patio. Those spaces are a simple porous linear arrangement to again maximize views, ventilation, and flexibility of the room while interacting with the large covered outdoor space. Storage was strategic in the tight footprint and accommodates hobby and construction equipment. The lower level is intended to function as extra space, accessible down the outdoor stairs, to be opened or shuttered for guests as required. Private and bunk rooms share another full bath which, in the name of economy are styled as "wet rooms" that can be easily cleaned. The lower outdoor patio is meant as both extra gathering space between guests outside of their rooms as well as servicing the pool with an outdoor shower among the planted column supports. The pool was a must-have and completes the cabana experience with daily swimming among their own private jungle. Ground Floor (lower)

an Overgrown Home

Ground-Up Construction, residential Portland, OR | 2020 - 2021 2,250 SF A young family of four was interested in reinterpreting the conventional logic of a garden remaining on a home's ground floor. Through their willingness to stack program into distinct yet interrelated volumes of bedrooms and living spaces, we took advantage of Portland's recent up-zoning to maximize outdoor space within the massing. The result was a spectrum of intimate sunken living rooms to double-height gathering areas, with each floor able to access their own garden atop the previous level's roof through an oversized pivot door that punched through the cube form. Although pandemic uncertainty led to the indefinite pausing of the project, the design was an exercise in breaking down traditional orientations of indoor, outdoor, and the way a home engages in both. ­— role: project designer programming, concepting, schematic design, design development


Massing Diagram The home's massing is ordered by privacy in plan and material in elevation. The home rises into seclusion to gain views and private outdoor areas as the width of the scalloped precast widens to express each volume.

Renderings The identity of each massing volume is unified in appearance through material similarity yet distinct through the increasing scale of the pattern. The extrusion is interrupted by punched openings that correspond to programmatic privacy and access requirements. The warm interior lighting and materials glow with the family's activity.

Longitudinal Section While upper living levels in a single-family residence are typically limited to plants contained within a small balcony or potted plants, the design brought the outdoors upward with thickened floor plates that bring greenery and seasonality to each family member's bedroom. The plants also screen private spaces while offering views out as desired.

an Overgrown Home

opposite: The ground floor of the home is the most programmatically diverse. We therefore wanted the plan to reflect that experientially for the residents. Entrances are through oversized pivot doors that puncture the building shell in formal synonym with the large square windows. The act of hosting, whether in the manner of dining, chatting, or gathering together, was a foremost priority for them so the ground floor is arranged as a spectrum of intimacy and light levels. The second and third floor become more private as you ascend, contrasted by the views gained across the Albina neighborhood. Two children's bedrooms and an extra sleeping space for guests share a bath on the second level while the highest floor is a true primary suite: a full bath, walk-in closet, and a variety of spaces to retreat to, indoors and out.

left: The double-height entertainment and gathering space focuses inward while still being bathed in natural light. Soft materials (eggshell white walls and wood paneling) in the home's tallest space are timeless and allow the couple's art collection and impressive amount of indoor plants to remain the central talking point. below: A view of the kitchen and dining space with the living space, entry hall, and second floor landing visible beyond. While lower, the kitchen's ceiling height is still generous and has views to the garden space behind the view.

The continued tech boom of Austin and its adjacent industries have created a modern gold rush for the creative city, encouraging growth on greenfield sites such as our project location. Originally zoned for factory and industrial, the creative complex design found inspiration in the low-slung warehouse aesthetic of the area which offered a compact and affordable construction method. Warmcolored precast concrete with exposed aggregate and cedar soffiting added a southwestern warmth to the exterior and the site's landscaping met the facade with playful diagonal columns as the interface between architectural and organic. My role included the modeling, documentation, and visualization of the project as well as continued efforts of coordination between the owner, contractor, engineers, and the executive architect. ”

Project Information The design consisted of two masses, each with three levels constructed on a previously-unbuilt site in east Austin. The creative office desire for industrial sites melded well with the context of the area. Concrete was a great choice that, being precast, offered cost-effective patterning across the facade. Modern amenities on the ground floor include a gym, tenant lounge, gathering spaces, and bike parking. Each office gains their own private outdoor space in the form of recessed covered decks punched into the gridded facade in addition to the campus's ground-level paseo and dual rooftop terraces. The warm exterior tones of concrete, glazing, and mullions continue within the building's industrial palette of oiled metal, polished concrete, leather, and wood cladding and built-ins. A generous parking garage spans both office volumes, livened with a local artist's mural across its vertical stair and elevator core. The project is intended to improve with age, weathering in the Austin sun while the landscape continues to grow ever closer to meeting the building's carefully-detailed exterior. 23

Detail Documentation If it appears repetitive at first glance, the facade in fact included many, many different conditions and intersections that needed in-depth representation and problem solving. The precast exterior panels were attached to the building's superstructure through an anchoring system that also broke the thermal bridging in the Texas climate. Construction joints and gapping were strategically implemented to create depth and shadow lines across the building facade.

Unrolled Elevation The facade's egalitarian grid — efficient for the building's program and F.A.R. — is punctuated by balconies that interact with the site’s environment and breathe life into the pattern. The same strategy is implemented at all scales of the design: organic dynamism meeting architectural order.

Illustrating Architecture Published and Personal Work anywhere | 2015 - ongoing Drawing was my first love. I used to get in trouble for doodling all over my schoolwork. When, at age 10, I learned from an architect family friend that he drew for a living it started me down the path I'm on now. I still find (make!) time to draw. I do it on my own to convey ideas or depict research with diagrams. I do it at work to understand or develop concepts. And I've gotten to do it with some really incredible collaborators who have worked with me to illustrate their own ideas, which has even gotten me published a few times. I've included a small sample of my drawings to demonstrate my passion and process and how it helps round me out as an architect, designer, and a grown up who still doodles in the margins. ­— role: illustrator using digital and physical representation techniques to independently or collaboratively draw things that interest me


Award Winning Published Illustrations Since 2017 I've worked with Professor Emeritus Thomas C. Hubka of the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee. My thesis professor, Howard Davis, introduced me to his colleague as he knew I was interested in working class architecture and its documentation which Tom happened to be an expert in. He and I collaborated on a book that he wrote and researched which I illustrated over the course of several years. How the Working Class Home Became Modern, 1900-1940 was the recipient of the Abbott Lowell Cummings Award from the Vernacular Architecture Forum. It was also awarded the University of Mary Washington Center for Historic Preservation Book Prize. Both honors are a testament to Tom's incredible knowledge and scholarship which I was humbled to help draw.

Tom and I continue to work together, illustrating his ideas and findings at forums and guest lectures at colleges around the country and world. We've also designed and constructed his niece's family home in Maine and are in the process of creating another book focused on his research on Portland's housing stock. While we've created dozens of drawings, diagrams, and illustrations together, I've included a few of my favorites here. Past and current collaborators also include my thesis professor Howard Davis, on his "architectural memoirs" and study of gentrification's effects on the working city, Regents Professor of Landscape Architecture Chris Wilson of the University of New Mexico on the re-urbanization of the American southwest, and several others.

A love letter to my former city. The North Portland library was constructed in Jacobean style with funds from the Carnegie Corporation in 1913. I drew this while in the process of moving to New York. I wanted my wife and I to have this to remember our neighborhood's special little library. It's brick, just like our home there.

About Erik

Statement of Standards I've worked at small, highly design-focused offices where I cut my teeth on residential, commercial, and retail projects. Most importantly, I learned how much I enjoy cultivating and sustaining relationships with clients, consultants, and coworkers. While the quality of our work got our foot in the door, the collaborative experience I worked hard to cultivate helped us develop our ideas into a built space together as a team. My time working at a design-build office—as well as the licensure process I completed last year—deepened my passion for architecture as it culminates in the art of construction. I'm grateful to every consultant and site superintendent who shared their expertise with me. The knowledge I've gained of the realities of construction means I'm proud to be well versed in both the process of design and the craft of construction. I enjoy communicating my team's ideas into comprehensive drawings that are built to the client's and my own high standards. I've also complemented my passion for residential design by freelancing as an architectural illustrator. Books I've illustrated have won multiple national awards in historical and vernacular architecture thanks to the incredible research of the authors I've had a blast working with. When I'm not working on a deadline I'm exploring the city's museums and restaurants, walking my German Shepherd, or seeing movies at the Metrograph with my wife, a nurse with New York Presbyterian. I really appreciate you checking out my work and I hope we can create great spaces together. Thank you! /eml 34
