LOFT DESIGN
Robert Kennedy Building The concept for this apartment is based on a prism. When light enters a prism it gives a sense of transformation, since the light is dispersed the colors red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet are seen.
COURTYARD

Functional Zoning
The concept for this residential project was based on the clients’ needs for a sustainable living. Public spaces become spacious and gives the client the feeling of openness for gathering and easy circulation throughtout the house. Private rooms such as the bedroom and office are located in the second floor providing them the privacy that they need. Sustainability is also enphasized by incorporating a green wall system that helps reducing solar heat gain, noise and energy cost in the building.

CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT AND SCHEMATIC Briggs & Riley Satellite Office
The concept for this design focuses on the zipper, with each part of the zipper representing something about the space. The beginning and the end of the zipper represent the entrance and exit from the building, and the pull tab represents the circulation that pulls people through the space. Users can stop at any point to work or rest in a node.
