the NEST The Nest is the product of a collaborative effort in an advanced material research studio focused on a speciality high performance concrete, Ductile Concrete. The Nest acts as resting , meeting, or standing piece, hoping to encourage interaction and activity in a previously dead space. The strength of ductile concrete allows for very thin hollow sections , which are each connected by a nest like interior structure of welded rebar. This instillation proves the new capabilities potentials of concrete, an ancient material.

Conduits of Form: Charlottesville’s Sky Carrier A new connective transportation network carries cable cars above the city and country, piercing the hotel’s facade to create spatial voids in the preexisting Landmark grid. A network of paths circulate throughout the structure, acting as a means of transit for both people and goods, and also serving as stationary cable car hotel rooms. Sustainable modes of transportation, they traverse from the agrarian Rivanna River villages to the core of Charlottesville to serve the local food network of the Downtown Mall, stocked with produce farmed on the Rivanna’s banks. Concrete ribbons act as a permeable boundary between the southern and northern ends of the building. Peeling away to puncture the open ground spaces, they act as structural reinforcement, utilitarian pipelines and impromptu furniture pieces. Conduits of Form promotes the restitching of Downtown Charlottesville with its agrarian past, acting as a catalyst for public interaction and community exchange.

The first iteration was the marriage of the tree and the triangle--both figures that exemplify strength and stability. The ribbon-like structure is an amorphous, ambiguous conglomerate. The screen wall is porous and permeable, illustrated by the low roots on the northern end that pass through to become the roof on the southern end. The barrier divides the gallery into public gathering space for many and private resting space for one.

construction detail

The ribbons will be constructed through precast cast pieces connected by joints that will be cast within each segment, creating a seamless flow of concrete throughout the structure, The concrete ribbons are multi-functional and ambiguously programmed, hoping to keep the open and public nature of the large public plaza on the ground floor. The ribbons create a textured wall that acts against the shear forces caused by the movement of cable cars within the structure. Next, they act as conduits, containing necessary resources for the hotel and its inhabitants. The water flow within the conduit, works successfully due to the water tight and strength of ductile.

WASTE SORTING DIAGRAM I SKETCHES I RECYCLE SQUARE PARK I P.2 I STUDIO VAN LENGEN I ARCH 3020 I BRENNAN

Waste Heights Park began as an in-depth research project on the topic of medical waste within New York City, more specifically, the area of Washington Heights. I focused on rerouting the non-infectious waste produced by hospitals, by localizing it within the neighborhood. In reaction, I designed a single stream sorting center within the confines of Mitchell Square Park, Washington Heights. The system within this structure collects the waste from surrounding hospitals and moves it through the building, where each type of machinery removes a specific material and deposits it into vertical holding bins. I took this system and intertwined it within a second system of public circulation, consisting of catwalks and platforms, creating a constructed park.

MATERIAL PROCESS DIAGRAM I SKETCHES I RECYCLE SQUARE PARK I P.2 I STUDIO VAN LENGEN I ARCH 3020 I BRENNAN

The waste circulated and sorted throughout the park will be moved from the storage bins to specific hubs or stations that occupy vacant space throughout the city. Each hub reflects a specific material, whether its in the physical building itself or how the materials are distributed for re-use. The park and hub facilitate a constant cycle of material re-use and distribution within the city. of New York.

MARRIOTT DOOMSDAY INN The prevailing attitude among our group of preppers is one of paranoia. They are tied together by their mutual distrust and contempt of those who are not preppers. They are driven primarily by a survival of the fittest mentality, which dictates their various activities, from hoarding to arming. Thus the idea of community is one that can only be loosely associated with these preppers, as it is not unity against the world, but a streak of individualism that results. This paranoia manifests itself in the architecture of the Marriott Doomsday Inn

RIVANNA reSTITCHED

Rather than a simple boundary between city and county, this project seeks to understand the river as a restorative seamâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;culturally fertile and productively utilized. In this scheme, existing power lines are buried and the remaining tower corridors become arteries for a new connective transportation network throughout the city. Floating farms anchor the development at the river banks. Natural filtration systems and new commercial development occupies the county-side of the river bank to encourage growth. An elevated art-walk provides a new cultural layer while offering pedestrian crossings above the farms and between the riverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s banks.

The focus of this design was to effeciently and tactfully move customers through the ordering and dining experience. The aesthetic was to create a comfortable astomsphere with a series of warm woods contrasted by industrial metal . Also worked closely with the graphic team to integrate and develop a recognizable brand and image.
