Course: Advance Design Studio II: Portman Prize Studio Instructor: Prof. David Yocum Project Type: Adaptive Re-use The current H.L. Green is situated at the heart of downtown Atlanta.

Known for its historical significance and its strong pedestrian connectivity supported by various forms of public transport. The objective of the proposed building is to systematically open the existing building to public front and use environmentally sensitive material to minimize the overall carbon footprint of the new built form.

Instructor: Prof. Michael Gamble Course: Advance Design Studio: Critical Imaginative

32

The studio was focused to design a chapel, columbarium and a garden space within Piranesi’s re-imagining of Rome. Situated within a manufactured lake with the Pantheon looking across the horizon, this design serves as a intervention between the lake and the arcade.

The columbarium gets connected to the existing conditions by pathways and arcade walkway that surrounds the lake. The columbarium space is placed on the negative voids of the build form.

The entire structure would be constructed in a span of 200 years and each components would be stereotomically carved from the stone that is cultivated from the nearby quarry. The monolith have interior spaces that are carefully located at different levels above the ground that detaches the user of the space from it’s nearby surrounding and provides an opportunity for deep contemplation.

WTC Centre, New York

Course: Media and Modeling Instructor: Prof. James Park Role in project: 1. formulating the geometric constituents of the precedent and developing relationship based on geometry using grasshopper 3. Use solar/thermal analysis tools for optimization

Team Work: Niket Joshi, Kunal Chhatlani, Jane Rodrigues 42

1. Formal analysis of the precedent

Geometric derivation of plan

Base Rectangle that becomes the foundational geometry

Plan is a combination of 2 large arcs and 2 small arcs

Lateral section -Trapezoidal section with rounded top

Lateral section- top section with filleted top

Longitutdnal section: The central spine is located centrally above the ellipse to form skylight

Longitudinal section-Side elevation of fins follow a paraboloid form

The fins are enclosed in a parellelogram in plan 43

2. Analysis and formulation of specific building system (Floor System)

Bulge of ellipse: 34.1 Lenght of Rectangle: 17.2 Breadth of rectangle: 166.0 Outer arc of staircase: 2.5 Inner arc of staircase: 1.2
