PERFORMANCE PAVILION
FALL 2022
ELIZABETH RIORDEN
With this project, we were given the site Burnet Woods and asked to build a pavilion. We started by studying precedents and proceeded to analyze the site. With our pavilion, we had to respond to the site while also facing challenges with tectonics along the way. My answer to these problems was to create a pavilion that sits atop the flat land therefore not having to alter the park’s natural landscape. My pavilion was based on the idea of rotating squares around an internal axis and then cutting it in half to create a structure.
The structure was placed within a cement base that is built into the ground.

ROOFTOP PAVILION
SPRING 2022 KELSEY DEPOLO
With this project, I was asked to design a proposal for a rooftop pavilion. The site for the pavilion is the existing roof space outside the materials library on the 8th floor of our current building (DAAP). The first part of this project was to take a section of DAAP and create a scaled site model. From there, I began to iterate through drawings and models, until I got to my final pavilion. With my final pavilion, I tried to use a similar language that the preexisting building already has with the use of lines and planes.

FALL 2021 VINCENT SANSALONE
With this project, I was asked to take an ordinary everyday object and warp it in a way such that the original object is no longer recognizable. After experimenting with multiple objects, I chose erasers. I had the opportunity to utilize the multiple colors and bring them into my design. The swirl happens vertically throughout the cone design as well as through the use of colors as it moves up.
LINE PLANE VOLUME CUBES
FALL 2021 VINCENT SANSALONE
These were three separate projects where I was asked to create three different types of implied cubes- one using just lines, one with just planes, and one with just volumes. I began to understand how to generate and imply form and space through the use of line, plane and volume. I was asked to create multiple compositions by combining these three cubes into one.
EMBLEMATIC STAGE SET
FALL 2021 VINCENT SANSALONEWith this project, I was asked to create an emblematic stage set in which a person could inhabit and interact.
I wanted my design to be abstract but, realistic at the same time. I liked the idea of using lines in the form of sticks throughout, however,
I didn’t initially know how to incorporate spaces within the array of lines. I then had the idea to have the inhabitable spaces fit within the negative area between the sticks.

MODULAR WALL
SPRING 2022 KELSEY DEPOLO
With this project, we were put into teams of five and asked to create a single unit that could be put together in such a way to create a unique wall. My group came up with the idea of distorting a hexagon and creating sliding joints in which they could connect and fit together. We used wood for the frame and acrylic for the screen as we felt the two materials complement each other therefore creating a very unique composition.

PROFESSIONAL WORK
BRANDT ARCHITECTURE
At Brandt Architecture, I did a variety of tasks which included drafting floor plans and elevations for pre-existing conditions in AutoCAD as shown on these two slides. I also developed schematic designs for potential floor plans as shown on the previous page. Throughout this summer internship, I had the opportunity to go on site visits and was also tasked with dimensioning plans and elevations. Lastly, I got the chance to work on marketing plans and graphics to present to design boards and potential clients.
