LIBRARY IN THE LANDSCAPE
Design 5
Miami Design District Site Fall 2007
The Miami Design District is a highly interactive area between commercial and residential. As well as of different stratus of social, economical, educational, and ethnic groups. A library serves as an educative and cultural center for the community. Also the library can create a common ground for the visitors, to blur the social and economical status. A massive form that comes from the ground makes the visitor humble and ready to absord knowledge.

The investigation of various landscape surfaces (terrains, nature, and border conditions) was conducted. Different transformation operations where done on the landscape site to achieve a new topography. The developed topograpy; was constructed from a 20 feet grid that was transform to optain the appropiate space for the use of a library. This building is a series of different flows.

Museum of Modern Art PS. 1 Site Group Project Summer 2008
The Museum of Modern Art and PS.1 Contemporary Art Center annually creates a competition for young emerging architects to build an architectural installation. The objective of the project is to provide the visitor an outdoor recreational area for the summer. A team of 2 designers (Adrian Heid and myself ) explore the potential in the site thru a series of studies of the orchid with the aim to create an architectural piece that is aesthetically pleasing and functional.

The essence of the orchid was translated to the architectural installation with the idea that the installation form would expand and contract, based on the functions needed. Additionally, the landscape piece is tornassol which means the color of this piece is continuously changing depending on how the sun reflects on the material. Orchid Dissection

LANDING NOWHERE MUSEUM
Design 7
Miami International Airport Site Fall 2008
An experiential museum of Immigration creates a sense of awareness in regards to those that have never experience what immigrants have to go through, both the good and the bad. This museum becomes a landmark of Miami; however the only way of to enter this museum is by being a transient visitor. Transient visitors are those people that are temporarily in a country where they don’t have permission to enter legally. Because of various reasons and are in that country for a few hours in a transitory manner.

Based on the idea of a space that belongs to no one, where there no countries, a neutral space, where the only requirement is that to enter this museum the visitor must become a transient visitor. It starts by entering into this ‘no-man’s land’, that takes the visitor into a series of ‘moments’. Those moments are the exhibits. Exploted Axonometric

INVASIVE SOLUTION
Design 8
Miami Voids Site Charrette Competition Spring 2009
Where are the opportunities for action in urban planning? is the ideal urban fabric that of the suburban/sedentary lifestyle? or thru a dictatorial grid that does not lead any space for people to take and create an identity. To question and provoke as well to demostrate other ways of inhabiting domestic, urban and territorial space without destroying the previous fabric.

In early civilization the human race lived in very uncertain lifestyles to survive as nomads. In the modern age people still continue to have a nomadic lifestyle in the form of homeless and in the form of migration The aim is to have a solution to the nomad (reactor) and the voids of the city (object of research). To construct a terrain that would work as dwelling points with the permanent urban fabric without destroying the essence of the city. Cross Sections & Elevations

EXPOSE COLLEGE
Design 9
Downtown Miami Site Fall 2010 Grad Design 9
The College of the arts in architecture is located in downtown Miami, a vibrant urban site. the lot is a 50’ by 120’ narrow corridor between two commercial buildings. A challenge for a rather limiting site; that host a theater, a gallery, classrooms, shops, offices, studio spaces and a cafe. Requiring to utilized all the site envelope. The proposal is not only for the purpose to shelter the needs of the user but to manifest the experiences the students will have that are: to expose their work, reconnect by interacting among themselves and learning from this experience. The building is organized around a series of green terraces that invite the user to enjoy the outdoors as well to use the space for recreation or exposing their work.

The building divides into three circulations slow, fast and transit. Slow is the circulation the user goes by using the stairs. Fast circulation refers to the fire stairs located at either end of the building, and the final is transit circulation is the elevators one for visitor and the another for service as well located at either end of the building.
