ABOUT ME Scranton, PA (570) 447-5654 mgodell@m.marywood.edu

I am a self motivated and ambitious student with a 5-year B.Arch degree from Marywood University. I enjoy the critical thinking that designing requires and I am continuously looking for ways to apply my design thinking to every step of my projects. I personally think that I am well rounded in both the technical and conceptual sides of architecture, however I also believe that you are never done learning. I would really enjoy any opportunity to continue gaining experience with-in the field of architecture.

EDUCATION MARYWOOD UNIVERSITY

September 2014 - May 2019

The architecture department focuses on students being able to follow through with their design from conception to potential constructibility wile considering all scales of use from human to city integration. Partner work and collaboration is focused on to make sure students can easily be incorporated into an office environment. Relevant classwork includes: structures, environmental systems, LEED, professional practice, art and craft of building, and design build.

AIA COTE TOP TEN STUDENT’S COMPETITION : SP/RO/UT AQUAPONIC RESEARCH CENTER FOCUS

The theme of this year’s AIA COTE Top Ten for Students competition was Innovation 2030. The program challenged us to submit projects that use a thoroughly integrated approach to architecture, natural systems, and technology to provide architectural solutions that protect and enhance the environment. A set of ten measures were given to provide a framework for considerations during the design process. The competition will then recognize ten exceptional studio projects that seamlessly integrate adaptive, resilient, and strategies for moving towards carbon-neutral operation within their broader design concepts.

After numerous site studies, it was clear one of the largest environmental issues facing this specific area is the ecology of the Hudson River. After being polluted by PCB particles from upriver factories, both fish and vegetation populations have

07

greatly declined in health. There are current efforts to dredge the river bed in order to eliminate the bulk of PCBs from the riverbed, however there are not as many efforts to re-build these already damaged ecosystems. The Denning’s Point

06

site is located directly alongside the Hudson River, which immediately drew our program into aiding in this rehabilitation.

Peter Zumthor’s Steilneset Memorial was created as a museum to commemorate a series of witch trials that took place in Norway. The structure is made out of a combination of wood and steel with a canvas shell enclosing the 400’ long gallery. The interior of this canvas cocoon is only lit by 90 windows which are randomly distributed along the corridor, representing the arbitrary death of these innocent people. In order to retain this dim interior environment, at night each window has a single light bulb hanging within to replace the small amount of light previously entering. During the day, The structure itself is meant to exist for only a short time, and so in order to disturb as little land possible, Zumthor designed this tensile framing system to support the gallery space.

DEATH STUDIO : CREMATORIUM / RESEARCH CENTER FOCUS

Explore the idea of death through different levels of privacy. Mixing the private program of a crematorium with a public research center allowed for many different levels of public and private space to be organized and experienced. In order to begin dividing program up, it was necessary to first determine your own personal stance of death and the degree of private/public spaces that would be needed.

The building form was centred around the concept of thanatology. A central glass datum housing most of the research programs intersects two separate forms. One housing the crematorium, anatomy labs, and funeral spaces; the other housing public memorial spaces and a research library. This intersection allows researchers to view different parts of the crematorium process without interrupting those partaking in the process. The form began to explore voyeuristic architecture through the use of overlapping spaces, which is able to provide masked vantage points as a sort of oneway mirror for the researchers to conduct unbiased psychological studies.

To design this fabric a singular surface was manipulated in Maya to create two different pieces. Using the idea of a receiving and connecting piece, we came up with a three point system, which allowed for the fabric like flexibility when repeated to create a surface. The fin connection pieces prohibit the fabric from being completely flaccid as a regular piece of cotton fabric would be. When bent and played with, the fabric has a quality of tension at these points and retains a curve determined by the angle of the connection fins.

ALMOST CITY : ROOFTOP PENNSYLVANIA EXPERIENCE FOCUS

The township of Tobyhanna commissioned proposals to re-develop the main street of their town in an attempt to promote tourism in the Pocono reigion. They requested that the design center around what they have coined as the “Pennsylvania Experience”, through the implementation of a variety of themed programs. These programs consisted of a PA Beir Garden, PA Wine Library, PA Wiskey Rebellion, PA Farmers Market, and the PA Butcher’s Block.

HOUSING STUDIO : MIXED-USE APARTMENT COMPLEX FOCUS

Housing can be regarded as the building block of our communities, the rudiment of our cities, and the shelter of our everyday lives. It is possible that housing was the very first building type and it is certainly the most common. Housing can be understood as both a noun (an object, a thing, a place) and a verb (an action, a process, an event). Housing can be seen as both an agent of development, progress, and change, as well as the result, register, and effect of those very same factors.

Residential apartments are located on the floors above the commercial spaces. For this particular building six different variations of room types accommodates for varying occupancy. The two smaller buildings would preferably house young adult couples and local college students, whereas the larger building would be reserved more-so for families. To aid in trying to bolster community, each floor also has communal lounge spaces for the residents to share.
