EDUCATION EDUCATION EDUCATION SEMESTER 7 PROJECT 1 ed · u · ca · tion /ejəkāSH(ə)n/

EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION In this project, I designed an educational institution in Brownsville. Brownsville has more sneaker stores than schools or educational facilites. I decided to focus on creating an educational institution that would engage with it’s community + maintain the culture of Brownsville. Through out my process, I focused on incorporating Hip-Hop + Architecture. During the earlier stages of this project, I neutralized the programs of the building + related it between “stationary” +“movement”. This process allowed me to discover my own style, in which it reflected onto the institution’s design. Furthermore, I provided a designated space outside of the school to engage + invite the public. The use of color represents Hip-Hop's fashion culture. Along, with the concept of imagery to be seen aethestically as an individual walks across the bridge. All in all, this educational institution is meant to speak or "rap" through its design.

AIR TRAFFIC TOWER AIR TRAFFIC TOWER AIR TRAFFIC TOWER SEMESTER 6 PROJECT 1 tow · er /tou(ə)r AIR TRAFFIC TOWER REDESIGN Is it possible that an air traffic tower can be sustainable + functional? In this project, the LaGuardia’s air traffic tower was in need of a redesign. The challenge of the project was to design a sustainable air traffic tower for the site. My partner + I decided to design an architecture that will capture rain water + reuse it for plumbing within the tower. During the earlier stages of this project, we were inspired by a wine bottle’s form. Furthermore, with the the use of foam we created an agrigated + faceted study model. While producing our study model, we discovered + focused on a series of flower-petal patterns that was utilized in creating it’s structure. In relations to with it’s form, the tower related symbolically with sustainablity -- creating an ecocsystem by recycling rain water. This flower like structure translated inside + outside its surface, providing an unique experience for the staff working there.

WEARABLE WEARABLE WEARABLE SEMESTER 2 PROJECT 2 wear · a · ble /werəb(ə)l/

WEARABLE DEVICE What if there was a wearable device that combined senses? In this project, relating sight + touch was the driving force in designing a wearable device that would communicate with its environment. It mimicks the quills of a porcupine and exaggerate NYC’s skyscrappers. Using wooden dowels as “quills” -- the device works with metal springs as a mechanism to push the dowels through their slots. This translates and alerts the user that there is activity around. All in all, this device was designed to “watch your back”.

HOW IT WORKS? When an individual applies pressure on the top surface of the wearable, the bottom surface reacts and translate the pressure to the back of the user. This communicates to the user that there is activity behind them. Therefore, the wearable becomes a device that “protects” the user’s back from any activity within their surroundings. All in all, this wearable performs as a security device + stylish backpack.

MOD. 2 MOD. 2 MOD. 2 FURNITURE DESIGN fur · ni · ture /fərniCHər/ MOD. 2 In this project, I designed a modular table + storage. This was my first furniture design and I was willing to experiment outside of architecture. This personal project was designed for a creative firm named, Made in Brownsville. The challenge of this project was to utilize one sheet of 4’ x 8‘ birchwood to create furniture. Through out my process, I focused on minimalism. I wanted to maintain an industrial appearance to the design to relate with NYC’s urban culture. Furthermore, the MOD. 2 was designed to be multifunctional for work and leisure purposes. Using my architectural knowledge, I produced a table + storage furniture that I believed would be best for any tiny space or home in NYC.
