My name is Marco Chow and as an inquisitive person, I desire to be a little more knowlegeable with each day. This can manifest as learning a new skill, perspective, or perhaps a new interest. I am unafraid to ask questions and I believe this makes me dive deeper into matters, allowing me to learn the most I can from any situation and interaction. I believe it is important to gain exposure in order to design in a holistic manner. My work experience in Toronto, Victoria, Amsterdam, and New York has allowed me to develop a diverse skill set and approach to design. As an avid learner, I greatly appreciate any opportunities to apply my knowledge and share it with others. I am currently a fourth year student of the University of Waterloo, School of Architecture and it is my hope that this collection of my work will lead you to become more knowlegeable about me.

Re: Marco Chow To Whom It May Concern: Marco was employed as a co-op student in our Victoria studio from September to December, 2016. During his time with us, Marco gained exposure to projects of a variety of scales and stages of design development. His assigned tasks included assisting the project managers and the principal-in-charge in the schematic design of a new custom residence and renovation to an existing home; assisting in the preparation of design drawings, photorealistic renderings, and supporting graphics for a 16-acre residential comprehensive development plan; assisting in the creation of design development drawings and 3D models for a midrise mixed-use development; and the preparation and submission of awards applications for recently-completed projects. Marco approached each project and task with enthusiasm and an eagerness to learn the technical and poetic aspects of architectural and urban design. He quickly became familiar and proficient with a number of new software packages and showed genuine interest in further building on his skills in design, CAD drawing, 3D modeling, and rendering. The quality and attention to detail in Marco’s work consistently improved over the course of his tenure with us as a result of his positive attitude and desire to learn. Marco has proven to be a committed, reliable, and enthusiastic employee and I have no hesitation in recommending him. Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Regards,
Nathan Flach

TABLE OF CONTENTS
A planning module was designed to minimize the undesired qualities of a long ‘sterile’ corridor and instead offers pockets of communal areas interceding the patient rooms. How can architecture facilitate improved patient care, experience, and recovery?
PROMENADE Mental Health Rehabilitation Individual

library gym
Situated within the French River landscape in Killarney, Ontario, this mental health rehabilitation and residence explores the idea of surveillance. How can the conventional typology of a doubly-loaded corridor be challenged in order to respect the privacy of the residents while still allowing for safety and security to be administered discretely? A new typology for the corridor was conceived, where the living quarters are interceded by interstitial outdoor spaces and communal areas such as a common reading room or lounge which face out into the landscape. The long linear footprint of the project is a result of responding to an existing trail, allows for the preservation of the beautiful trees on the site.

After studying and understanding the unique material qualities of corrugated cardboard, we took our findings and applied them to a pavillion-scale design. How can the study of materials and parametricism be used to design architecture differently?
GRAIN Pavillion
Collaborators: Angus Dunn
We began this project with a design brief that called for the design of a parasitic pavilion with a focus on materiality and parametricism. We previously conducted explorations into the unique qualities of cardboard with a focus on the corrugation. Our experiments in cutting the medium at specific angles relative to the direction of the corrugation led us to realize that we could manipulate the porosity of the cross section of the material. Cutting perpendicular to the grain maximized the porosity, while cutting parallel to the grain eliminated the porosity. This simple idea, combined with varying the thickness of the material in plan, allowed us to have great control over the porosity of the medium. Taking this knowledge, we stacked sheets of cardboard to create complex organic forms, such as an egg which has a constantly changing radius along its height. We asked ourselves, “How do we take our findings and apply this to the built environment?�
22
23
The first step was to invert the relationship between the subject and the object. We took the idea of looking into the egg through the corrugation and instead imagined the egg as the pavilion and we were inside the egg, looking out through the corrugation. Through this inversion, our idea now has the capability to control the views out of the pavilion. The next difference was the corrugation. In our pavilion, we designed our own corrugated sheet material made from 1.5� thick plywood and 2x6’s. By building the sheets from scratch we could alter not only the orientation but also the density of the corrugation (or slats), making it possible to further mitigate which views are possible on the site.
24
We placed a light inside the egg to visualize the porous nature of the assembled object.
25
The west side of the site looks onto the sweeping wooded Grand River banks, while downtown Galt continues towards the south. The east side, however, looks onto a mid-rise apartment building and a busy street condition. Our material system provided a solution to block out the noise and views of the busy street and towering buildings while focusing the inhabitants’ attention out onto the river scene. In plan, the particular orientation of slats enhance the intended procured view while filtering out the unsightly portions of the site. In elevation, the spacing of the slats increases progressively with each stacked layer, allowing light to shine through from above while the density at the lower levels mitigates where the less-favorable views and noise.

The temporal nature of pavillions makes it easy to neglect the longerterm impacts of the project. How do we design in a sustainable way that minimizes the carbon footprint without sacrificing the design intent?
AETHER Pavillion
Collaborators: Justin Ng Lucy Lin Diana Si Roni Haravon Saadman Ahmed Mayuri Paranthahan
There is a constant relationship between people on the ground who have a yearning for the sky. Every element in this pavilion works to accentuate this vertical relationship. Bound within the walls of an 8ft x 8ft cube, the experience begins with taking off your shoes and ascending a ramp that lifts of from the ground. Joists spanning above the ramp create the sense of compression, blocking the view up to the sky. A step down at the end of the ramp takes the user into the reflection pool. As you turn the corner, the vertical wood members lead the eyes up from the ground to the ceiling composed of hand-made bird houses hanging above. A bird house can be removed by pushing up from below, disengaging the metal S-hook from the steel tension cable. This effectively reveals a patch of the sky above, finally giving a framed view of the sky above. As the day progressed, more and more bird houses were removed from the pavilion, dynamically allowing for more of the sky to be revealed. The functional bird house then became an artifact that was placed at homes all over the city, thus allowing this otherwise one-day pavilion to live on in a different form. The connection detail for this pavilion comprised of a threaded screw and a zip tie. The screw was drilled into the horizontal member of the structure and a zip tie fastened the vertical members temporarily at the top and bottom to the beam. Once the pavilion was taken down, this connection allowed us to return a large amount of our lumber, totalling over $700 to significantly reducing our environmental impact and overall budget.

By combining two passive design strategies, we created a scaleable solution to target the air pollution crisis in Seoul. What is an architect’s role at an urban scale towards improving the quality of living?
IN BLOOM Competition (3rd Place Winner) Collaborators: Ethan Schwartz Phillipe Fournier Nathanael Scheffler
The city of Seoul, South Korea, is plagued by dangerous levels of continual air pollution. As the city is constantly growing and changing, city planners, developers and architects must play a role in solving this crisis.
The Seoul Sustainable Built Environment (SBE) international student design competition called for a design entry pertaining to clean air architecture and urbanism. In Seoul and many of its surrounding provincial areas, levels of fine dust and ultra-fine particles have reached double of the permissible levels the World Health Organization recommends. We were challenged as architects to think about how innovative architecture and urban strategies could address this environmental challenge. We were interested in the sustainability aspect of architecture and how it could relate to improving environmental issues. We first started by researching the technical aspects of the problem at hand. Upon learning of an existing paint-coating capable of reducing pollution in the air through passive means, we developed a facade system that combined the coating with existing sustainable strategies. Finally, we identified potential areas of intervention for our system that would yield the greatest impact.
Our proposal is a 2-tiered facade system designed to clean air pollution on a mass scale. Pollutants are first processed by a decorative facade paneling system. A titanium-dioxide coating breaks down these particles into CO2 and water. The byproducts are both used by the bioreactor, a system that grows large amounts of algae in horizontal glass louvres for maximum sun exposure. The bioreactor in turn produces oxygen. After the bioreactor has grown a full crop, the algae is filtered out and processed for a variety of uses.
A TITANIUM DIOXI COATED PANEL SYST
is easily mounted to the exterior walls. Organic poll in the air react with the TiOÂÂ2 photocatalyst coating, accele their natural decomposition into CO2 and water, whic transfer to the algae system. The transparency of the coating the aesthetic possibilities for colour are endless. Our design is a tesse tile capable of being arranged in a multitude of scalable pa

CAPITALIZING ON THE EXISTING BUILT FORM OF SEOUL,
our facade system is designed as a pair of supplemental modular products tailored for mass production and assembly on the city’s definitive building types. Vast regions of Seoul’s urban fabric are defined by clusters of identical residential towers. Proliferated on a mass scale, our system would cover a significant surface area of these towers as new “green space”, reducing pollution levels while simultaneously improving the asethetics of the built environment.
A HORIZONTAL LOUVRE SYSTEM
takes in CO2 and uses it in the algae’s photosynthesis process, producing oxygen as well as growing algae biomass. The form of the horizontal louvre provides the algae with nearly uninturrupted solar access, promoting growth. The louvres also help shade the building, reducing the need for mechanically assisted cooling in the warmer months of the year. The system can be reduced to the core components during the winter to make the louvres clear, allowing for the solar radiation to pass through and still help heat the building.
gravity flow tank evenly distributes the water and algae to the louvres
algae drains through the louvres, absorbing sunlight and undergoing photosynthesis
algae drains into aeration tank outside air is pressurized and bubbled through aeration tank

THE ALGAE IS HARVESTED
and can then be sold for a variety of off-site uses, including: biofuel an alternative to diesel and natural gas products
sewage treatment addressing water pollution and wetland degradation
biomedical/chemical uses manufacturing medicine, cosmetics, fertilizers, biodegradable plastics
food chlorella, spirulina and similar species
SYSTEM PRODUCTIVITY Via our system, for every day of average solar exposure, each square meter of titanium dioxide will convert 200m3 of Nitrous Oxides and 60m3 of volatile organic compounds into oxygen and algae biomass. (each 0.8x0.45m panel=0.624m2) In addition, one acre of algae can absorb approximately 2 million tonnes of CO2/year.

Learning about the culture and architecture of Amsterdam allowed me to broaden my perspective towards design. I had opportunities to learn and iterate upon various styles of graphic representation.
FABRICATIONS 05/17 - 08/17
Dreams of the IJ is an exhibition that explored five architecturally-significant projects of the past that were sited along the IJ river in Amsterdam. FABRICations was comissioned by the Amsterdam Centre for Architecture (ARCAM) to compose three aerial perspectives to depict the impact of these projects if they were carried out. Exploring projects of the past allows us as architects to revisit the ambitions of the past for the city and its river development, producing interesting discourse and inspiration. The projects featured at the exhibition consisted of a bridge design by Jan Galman, the Southern IJ banks masterplan by OMA, City on Pampus by Van de Broek and Bakema,Koningsdok by Marge Architecten, and The Floating Games 2028 by Oeverzaaijer. This was my first project at FABRICations, working in a small team with a fellow student, the project manager, and the founding partner. Starting from scratch, we took the project from beginning to end over the course of a month. I was given an amazing opportunity to contribute my design ideas and see them come to fruition. After much exploration in styles, colours, views, and representation, we produced three sets of triptychs in three different colour schemes. In light of the whimsical style of the drawings, a playful persona was given to the IJ river. Upon closer inspection, the waters contain a secondary layer a variety of hand-drawn boats, public figures, local animals, and ‘IJ monsters’ serve to enhance the stories of the five projects.

In addition to architecture, I find myself drawn towards exploring the expressive qualities of different media. My interests can be summarized into three types of media: art, photography, and movement.
PERSONAL WORKS
THE MEDIUM OF ART
78
Through art, I can visually depict ideas through sketching, painting; auditorilly, I express my emotions through the piano.
79
THE MEDIUM OF PHOTOGRAPHY
80
Photography allows me to capture the elusive temporal experiences of life.
81
THE MEDIUM OF MOVEMENT
82
Movement helps me to connect to the physical realm of design.
