Massing Overview
Located in downtown Lincoln, this project focused on the redevelopment of two city blocks. The massing strategy was developed by a group made up Joe Johnson, Joey Laughlin, Sean O’ Brien and myself. We focused on the idea of creating an interior courtyard raised up a level. This created a public space for not only the building users, but also the general public. The raised level allowed for a level of parking on ground level as well as two levels beneath.

After the initial massing phase was complete, we individually developed separate buildings.

After the initial massing strategy, I developed the large wrap around building on the eastern block. I began by editing the large massing. Afterwards, I worked on developing the bottom six levels made up retail and business. The retail levels made up the bottom two-three levels and featured entrances not only on the street but also onto the interior courtyard. The business levels in the middle three levels featured areas for public space as well as exterior green spaces.

synergyPOD ARCH 410:Tectonics Studio Fall 2012 - 3 week project The premise for the project was based off the idea of temporary housing either for emergency use or at large sporting events like the Olympics. We therefore designed a single prototypical pod able to be transported on a semi-trailer that would have uses such as sleeping, hygiene, a place to run a laptop, as well as a few other basic programmatic needs. I was fascinated with the use of the penrose pattern. By manipulating surface points I could create structure as well as other programmatic needs. Axonometric Detail

synergyPOD ARCH 410 Fall 2012 By manipulating the pattern I was able to create doors, handles, windows, as well as structural components and vent openings for natural air circulation. By having the undulating exterior surface, I was able to reduce the amount of interior structure needed to support the pod. Programmatic I continued the use of the pattern to create a combination bed/desk as well as storage and a sink. I also included an adjustable solar panel on the roof in order to create electricity for each pod to use. 1/8� Section Model

ARCH 411:Urbanism Studio Spring 2013 - 8 week project Based in St. Louis, the studio project focused on how a specific health issue could be alleviated by urban form. At the start of the semester, I focused my health issue on lung issues. After doing some initial research, I was interested in how the built form could somehow alleviate the pollution in the environment caused by nearby coal plants.

After visiting St. Louis, the studio located a site on the very edge of the downtown. We were then tasked with developing a master plan for five sites that were either undeveloped or underdeveloped at the time.

urbanHEALTH tower ARCH 411 Spring 2013 We were given specific requirements for the amount of program required on the site and also had to respond to a proposed rail stop at the corner of our site. After developing initial massings for all five buildings, we were then asked to further develop a single 80’ section that cut across out proposed site. As part of the 80’ developed section, I focused on a large corner residential tower. To address my health concern of lung issues, I focused on creating large amounts of green space both within and around the building as well as investigated air circulation methods.

This project focused on creating a new housing type within the city of Lincoln. Currently the housing stock consists of typical suburban housing with 20 units per acre. Typical urban housing has a density of 80 units per acre so we focused on creating this mid condition. The project required research not only on different housing types, but also real world values for the Gateway Mall projects. HOLDREGE ST

paraURBAN housing ARCH 510 Fall 2013 For the larger community plan, I focused on creating public spaces for all of the different units. I also focused on creating multiple types of units that would serve different types of units. While the preferred demographic I was looking at was young professionals who could work close by or at the university, I provided larger units that could support small families. My site location was directly adjacent to the Mopac Bike trail that runs east and west through Lincoln, so a large amenity for my site was the access the bike trail provided.

paraURBAN housing ARCH 510 Fall 2013 The final phase of the project included the development of three of the units within the larger community development. The first floor of the units for all of the units included a garage. The smaller unit then also included a kitchen and living room space on the first floor with two bedrooms up above. The larger units have space for a family room with the living and kitchen on the 2nd floor and the bedrooms located on the third floor.
Interior Render
For all of the units, focus was given on trying to enliven the public space in the courtyard and making that inviting as possible. However, the units still maintain privacy with the bedrooms all on upper floors as well as no shared walls between the units.

LEFT: ca. 1955 - The building was originally built as a garage and featured wide windows to provide natural lighting. RIGHT: ca. 1925 - The interior of the garage was wide and spacious allowing for maximum flexibility.
Architecture and buildings are looked at as “permanent” and “stable” objects within society, and yet almost everything about them change over their lifetime. All the individual pieces that make up a building are replaced, renovated, or upgraded as time goes on and still the building as the whole remains. This interesting dynamic of a static object containing a constantly changing system is something often overlooked within the design process. Thesis Statement: Create a resilient, dynamic and pre-adaptive building system designed to contain multiple changing programs over time.
Domino System
Domino System
Structure and Stairs Concrete slabs supported by minimal number of thin, reinforced concrete columns on edges. Stairs located on edges of space to allow for complete freedom in the plan. Interior Walls With the load supported by the concrete columns, the interior walls can be arranged in anyway as they are free from the loadbearing capacity.
Domino System Developed by Le Corbusier in 1914-15 that originally started as a platform for the mass production of housing.
Pre-Adaptive System
Facade Again freed from any sort of structural load, the facade was free to become whatever it wanted giving the architect more freedom.
Pre-Adaptive System
Structure and Stairs Structure is supported by load bearing columns. The stairs are moved into the interior to create an extended-point access system. This allows for greater flexibility in program across a floor. Interior Walls Interior walls are entirely flexible in their placement in order to support the different programmatic requirements. This allows for a greater customization of the individual tenant spaces.
Pre-Adaptive System In ways, it is similar to Domino System in terms of the structure though it is meant to do vastly different things.
Facade Still free from a structural component, the facades can reflect the interior program. As program changes over time, the exterior facade could also be changed out to reflect the new program.

changingPERMANENCE ARCH 613-614 Fall 2014/Spring 2015 The majority of buildings today are made to suite the particular interests of the present with little thought given over to the needs of the future. This mentality has recently changed with the rise of sustainability and a continued interest in providing for the future.
Building Evolution #3 Uncontrolled by Owner, Tenant decides use after purchase/rent of certain amount of square footage
My investigation has looked at changing this way of thinking. I’ve investigated this not only through looking at past theory documents, but also by trying to implement my solutions in real world scenarios. Beginning in the spring, I’ve started to apply my initial thoughts to a site in Seattle, WA.

changingPERMANENCE ARCH 613-614 Fall 2014/Spring 2015 Within Seattle, I located a site next to the university where a lot of growth is expected in the next five years. However, Seattle and planners are not sure what this growth might look like, so a pre-adaptive building that is capable of changing with minimum construction would work well in this area.
Scheme C Programmatic Massing
Within this area, I’ve identified a number of potential sites all located within a 10 minute walk to a proposed rail stop that is expected to be completed in 2020. I then began to do simple massings and investigating what programmatic changes might happen over time.
