Villa in Bucharest
Sense of place and place making is manifested in the Villa located in Bucharest- a multi user house inspired by traditional Gypsy patterns and castles seen throughout Romania. Juxtaposing a thick shell exterior, guarded by a double height door and metal ornamentation, the house is a sculpture, an object, and entity. Centered on the site, peering against soft green vegetation, the metal house is honest in its inviation. Internally, its warm and caressed by an off-set structural beam system. Wrapping the user in its embrace, the house defines a sense of presence, existence, and brutal use.

On Fun Folly & Frivolity ARC462 Laura Miller Daniels Faculty of Architecture Landscape & Design Public space is charged by its adaptability and ability to service the collective. However, increasingly the regimentation of the city and its various routines, optimizes efficiencies and dilutes exchange between users and their environments, undermining the potency of public space. In order to transform such rigid and isolating effects, solutions extending beyond the mundane must be employed. Through enacting play as a tool of conviviality- in the sense of acting for one's own enjoyment rather than to achieve a goal, increasing interconnectivity between persons- a newfound sense of common space can be curated.

Exploring Wood Cladding
LAMAS Architecture Daniels Faculty of Architecture Landscape & Design Researching, cataloging, and experimenting with off-the-shelf wood siding products as means to observing the existing, both market vise and product availability, into iterative design and tectonic innovation. Designing through aperture and corner conditions by digitally modeling off-the shelf wood cladding, trims, and other available products, with the goal of combining and utilizing these products to create non-standardized facade configurations. Taking Anni and Josef Albers, as well as, other artists as precedent for pattern making, the project seeks to experiment with formal and tectonic play. Exploded Axonometric & Unfolded Isometric

Gaspar House ARC361
11. University of Toronto ARC361 Nur Nuri Fall 2020
Adrian Phiffer Casa Gaspar, located in the diverse landscape of Cadiz, Spain, sarcastically perches itself upon the brown barren Earth, juxtaposing it with its all white square fortress. Isolating within its interior, the inhabitant only gazes at the framed view of the all blue sky. Constantly within bounds, the residents never feels the comfort of a home, as if the building is a form of self punishment.
Internally, immaterializing the very notion of a house, the symmetrical division of the inner courtyards play a constant forced game of hide and seek with the inhabitant. The removal of all domestic imperfections through the maneuver of separation sparks an immediate shift in atmosphere, almost pausing time Mathematicallyitself.
precise, Casa Gaspar eliminates all context between place and its environment. It makes a statement through its unapologetic blandness.; corrupting the region through its whiteness. Sheltered from all external affairs, the villa’s inhabitants meditate through staring at unmarked walls and four lemon trees. Unbreathable perfection concludes only with dreadful boredom and the death of freedom.

Temporary House ARC361 Fall 2020 Adrian Phiffer Designing a house that is temporary in its program and presence on the site, where the walls are porous and able to be rendered completely out of sight was a challenge. Beginning with the obliteration of the original site and reconstructing it, revealed this idea of modularityforming the primary framework for this house: time and Theincompleteness.houseisin constant motion, rendering ordinary domestic objects and spaces mobile through gentle gestures. Divided into a public courtyard and library on the ground floor, and private residence on the second floor, the programmed spaces are fluid and enhanced by modular multi-purpose furniture. The temporality and ever-changing nature of the project is a response to climate change, material decay, and the densification of the urban environment. Ground Floor Exploded Second Floor Exploded

Themonths.doubly curved facade which serves as the primary structure, plays a role in curating framed views internally, as well as, curating a rupture in which the landscape flows into the torqued roof. Evident in the roof plan, the bulbous forms of the facade create the actual shape of the ramping floor plate, and amplify the organic relationship between the site and structure.

Christopher Cornacelli A student residence designed to bring together students of the arts into one space in order to promote collaboration, curiosity and creativity through sensorial program spaces. The curvature is present in elevation, plan, and section- guiding, uniting, and presenting the question of what is laying around the corner- thus promoting curiosity and wonder. From plan the structure cuts a seam between the Spadina and Sussex through a concourse composed of a public theatre to the South East, and community garden to the South West. The curvature of the building connects Spadina and Sussex through its elevated ground floor via the ramping system which emerges from the street level- therefore providing a sheltered walkway for pedestrians during the winter and fall
