The project is made up of three characters: the floating community, the spine, and the deck.

Artek, a Finnish furniture company founded

by Alvar Aalto, is looking for a new home. A site located in the Helsinki Design District, located between the Architecture and Design Museum, seems like an ideal candidate. There’s only one problem: if the builing were to be placed in the pre-zoned location, in the center of the block, no one would be able to get Sunlight.

The main decision is to squeeze the building footprint to the north edge of the site, allowing all buildings on the block to get along. As an added bonus, a plaza space is created to the South, providing a

The Floating Community The building proposal involves a radical division of program through section. The program is divided into three main groups, which relate to the core values of Artek: collaborate, preserve, and make. The groups are expressed architecturally as independent “buildings within buildings� which float above the street level.

The Spine In order for the volumes to communicate, a thin “spine� is introduced. The spine uses a series of ramps to connect the three boxes with elevators and the necessary means of egress. It is a thin bar located in the south, which links the building with the newly created public space. While the group-boxes are heavy and opaque, the circulation spine is light and translucent. This allows a connection between building and plaza

Bent Plywood + Steel Tube Chair

Two Piece Chair Can a chair be efficient and expressive?

The Two-Piece Chair is a prototype for a bent plywood arm chair. The parti comes from the possibility of “folding” a .5m x 1m sheet - the standard size for plywood veneer.

The back and seat pieces are made using two identical pieces, made from the same mold. A simple plywood piece is introduced as a seat, which appears floating above the frame. The result is a chair which is both efficient (using material limitation as design driver) and expressive (creating a chair that envelops the body). The design and prototype were constructed in a period of four months, where several digital and physical iterations were explored.

Pavilion 2,000 S.F.

A Hearth for Kamppi Square Can Architecture bring warmth into a cold place?

Narinkkatori is a highly trafficked square in downtown Helsinki. The square is multifaceted and serves a variety of roles in numerous capacities. Narinkkatori flanks the main bus station (Kamppi) and serves as a hinge between shopping, living, and recreational Helsinki. In essence Narinkkatori is the eclectic center of Helsinki. However, due to the scale and materiality of the buildings around it, the square can feel cold and detached. Glass and metal are not the most welcoming materials, a problem compounded by the fact that Helsinki is a cold and frigid place in and of itself.

The goal for the pavilion is to create a space for warmth. The pavilion provides literal warmth for travelers; both through its architecture and actual physical heat. A bed of conditioned rocks are arrayed underneath the pavilion and project heat upwards into the interior pavilion space. As the heat rises up, it helps warm travelers. As an additional conveyance of “warmth, � the pavilion relates to the human scale, and is meant to be warm in terms of its materiality; bent wood cladding at two different scales are fastened to a primary structural wooden frame, creating a textured facade.

5x5x5 “The walled enclosure is against the belated strip city, still growing decades after the fashion. It’s against the idea of the suburban house on its lawn, particularly in the Southwest, where water is scarce and the weather requires enclosures.”

Donald Judd, from “Marfa, Texas” (1985), in Chinati, Marfa, Texas, The Vision of Donald Judd

In 1973, artist Donald Judd moved to Marfa, TX. Judd’s work consists of imposed abstract geometries which become contextual through repetition and position.

Judd bought, restored, and built extensively in Marfa, establishing the little western town as an art destination.

The project calls for an visiting artist complex adjacent to Judd’s block. Similar to Judd’s approach, the project aims to impose a rigid geometry to the site.

Then, the geometry is allowed to interact and vary slightly to respond to program, scale, and orientation.

Marfa, TX

Alone in West Texas How can a glass box relate to its context?

West Texas is a foreboding place. With extreme temperatures and a harsh sun, it’s hard to catch a break. To add to the extreme heat, the West Texas desert is one of the most desolate areas of the United States. It’s so desolate, in fact, that some people are willing to go really out of the way to shun civilization and the worries that come with it.

An affluent couple of art-collectors is looking to build their second home in an empty patch of desert, fueled by Donald Judd’s legacy in the vibrant art scene of nearby Marfa. Like any affluent couple with no children, the owners have picked up a few hobbies.

The wife is an amateur pilot and astrologist. The husband is a swimmer and writer. They require a landing strip, an elevated observatory, a lap pool, and spaces to display their art collection.

Pre-fabricated Loft House 2,000 S.F.

Deconstructed Vault House

6.

Architectural ideas are often inherently tied to the program, of function, of the building. What is an architectural idea when there is not strong programmatic requirements?

The framework for this project consists of constructing a pre-fabricated modular loft-house, to be lifted atop a New York city building. The house is seen not as a series of programs, but as a vessel for life to happen.

The Vault House explores construction as a means of expression. The approach is concerned with the analysis and modulation of two-directional vaults as a primary means of structure and enclosure. Rib Vaults, twodirectional vaults with a linear structure, evolved during the middle ages as a superior alternative to groin vaults. The interpretation of the vault as a domestic element provides a constructive architectural module. The house is formed by four modules, one of which is stretched to establish a center – a hearth – within the space. A layered roof spans the whole construction, visually joining the four modules and allowing for improved passive cooling during warm months.

Rome, Italy

In Collaboration with Jenny Park

Courtyard Block Can the DNA of a city help generate fitting new Architecture?

There seems to be a lack of Modern Buildings in the historic Roman core. In fact, nothing modern had been built inside the old roman walls until Richard Meier’s Ara Pacis museum in 2006. This project poses the following challenge: can we seamlessly insert a large-scale project into the fabric of an old city? The process began by studying the Roman city, and finding relationships and common threads. The courtyard, which can be seen throughout the city, became a clear common thread.

Enclosed

Permeable

Open

Implied

After studying different types of courtyards, we chose to apply the “Implied Courtyard” typology to the site: a series of streets and pathways which lead to a “hidden” courtyard, acting as a public space.

The courtyard becomes the hearth of the largescale block, creating a frame of reference and active public space in an under-used part of the city.

Unsited Pavilion

Deployable Folly A kinetic pavilion derived from the study of scissor joints.

The process involved the study of scissor joints, commonly found in household items and toys. A series of planar joints, rotated and aggregated, are capable of creating everchanging light and spatial conditions.

The scissor joint study is studied as the roof of a kinetic pavilion, constructed out of colored glass panels. Thin columns anchor the pavilon to a reciprocal piece in the ground, controlling the movement.

Heliophile Adaptive re-use meets high performance skin A company specializing in smart building facades has purchased a 1920’s concrete building in Chicago. The neighborhood is mostly residential, with a series of industrial warehouses and commercial buildings built alongside a train track. The building purchased contains expressive mushroom head concrete columns encased in a brick facade. The brief is to re-purpose the existing building to create a Smart Skin factory which would manufacture, showcase, and sell dynamic facades.

Ground Floor The Factory

Second Floor The Showroom

Third Floor The Offices

The building is larger than the new program requires, requiring careful demolition. My approach is quite straightforward: remove two bays from the south, two bays from the east, and a partial bay from the west. Then, new circulation cores are “plugged in” around the existing building, working “out” from the existing. Encasing the existing and the cores is a new smart facade, which is informed by the existing geometries Existing Building

Customer Experience The customer circulation is centered around both the experience of the skin in the building, and the showcase of other skin prototypes. The current building skin is experienced immediately once walking into a three story light-filled lobby space, from which a monolithic stair takes you to the show floor. In the show floor, circular rooms house LED light arrays that simulate the passage of the sun, effectively creating a “heliodome.�

Smart Building, Nervous Skin The building is clad in an intelligent skin, consisting of a series of solar panels that move to both catch the sun and shade the building.

The skin was prototyped in the grasshopper environment using ladybug+firefly for physical testing with an Arduino board.

Distribution Center 250,000 SF

What will be the Architecture of Drone Delivery?

Several companies are looking at using drones to deliver products from their warehouse to your house. Recently, the FAA gave Amazon permission to test-run its drone-based delivery service, making this prospect a step closer to reality. Delivery Drones introduce a new type of shopping experience, bridging the gap between the ease of online shopping and the instant gratification of shopping on Main Street. Fly the Mall explores the Architecture of drone delivery, using Saint Louis as a case study. The project is conducted in two acts: network and typology. Contrary to the current practice of placing one large distribution center in the middle of nowhere, smaller distribution centers are strategically dispersed to form a network in the city and the suburbs. The city station, able to serve all of Saint Louis City, celebrates the process of distribution through a new possible architectural typology, envisioning the imminent arrival of drones to your doorstep. ​
