Concept // In this design, Amazon picks up the unsaleable items from nearby Whole Foods (via drone) and uses said food to create recipes and meals for the community. Two-thirds of the food would be given to shelters and food banks, while one-third would be sold on site for people of the community. Embracing Amazon’s technologies, customers could take photos of meals like and the recipes/ ingredients would be on their doorsteps awaiting their return.

The entire top-down system is a closed loop.

Drones bring in the products.

The goods are sorted between dry, wet, frozen, compost, and recycling. There is a hydroponics garden for produce. Everything comes in as eaches and is stored in a bulk system that is time monitored and with heavy turnover. Items that are prime for eating will be sent to the kitchen level, where the food is prepared and either sent to the dining levels or to our self-driving delivery vehicles (SDD) via land or boat. Any product that could be used for composting is sent up through the back core.

Execution // Giving a nod to Amazon Careers, we have designed educational opportunities in the middle, semi-public portion of the building where the community can learn about our systems and how they can join what we are doing or simply educate themselves on waste reduction.

Concept // High-speed rail experience where the train is gradually moving at a faster and faster pace. As times goes on, everything outside the train window starts to mesh together - yet it is more than just an inablilty to visually keep up. The landscape, and the buildings are physically meshing together. The highspeed creates a new type of landscape. A merger of the rural and the urban that we know today.

Concept // Recognizing Oslo as a fishing culture, with access to rich waterways, an understanding of aquaculture is important. Especially when building on a re-purposed oil rig. The oil rig selected allows for complete integration with the Oslo 2100 ring, encouraging the public to enter by rail and fishermen to access by water. Not only is this a place for community and proximity to the water, this design caters to the both educational and economical lifestyes.

Le Cordon Bleu

Concept // Post secondary education is a tool that people use to their advantage when it comes to working in the real world. The idea is that the are drawn to their program of choice based on individual interests. At the end of this process we are pushed back into society, ready to work in field. This creates a double hook, the never ending continuous process. There is a pull that drives us to better ourselves and then there is the push once out in the work field for innovation. The double hook is symbolic of those willing to push themselves and the role of innovation on a social level. Innovation is never ending and therefore requires a constant movement, reiterated in the design.

Socialites

Concept // Starting with over 300 sites within New York City, this thesis targets locations that operate within the public realm. These are places that cater to the every day routine. In addition to this, the icon itself becomes an important feature.

Through the selection and filtering process, the icon and the routine are strategically chosen and reorganized. First the selection basis is based on accessibility and adaptability to the site. As the selection becomes more refined, the filtering adapts to the geographic, scale, and program among other things.

Socialites

Concept // As a society that exists more and more within the networked realm of society, there is something lost between the physical and the day to day interactions. Following this idea that we exist in the extremes of a networked society, where socialization, interaction and dialog occur solely in the interface. Nothing is left to the physical realm. We are faced with sensory overload as it becomes more and more impossible to shut down ourselves.

Execution // As a critique of how we operate within this networked society, this thesis seeks to disrupt the current relationship between society and architecture, architecture and the network itself; creating an oasis that challenges our physical and mental state of mind. In turn this thesis analyzes how we begin to operate within the public realm and how such interventions alter the every day.
