The Knoxville Rowing Association Boathouse seeks to play an integral role in the development of the South Knoxville waterfront. The project draws inspiration from Georges Seurat’s painting, “Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte” which shows people from various social classes mingling and enjoying entertainment along the waterfront in a public park. The project seeks to be the first step in bringing this experience to the civilians of Knoxville. One can envision Sunday afternoons, like those depicted in the painting, during which many people come and go from the Boathouse, enjoy a picnic lunch along the river, and cheer on their friends and family during boat races. The Boathouse will act as a catalyst for the south shore and encourage pedestrian traffic on both the greenway and along the newly widened street. The program boasts a restaurant and bar that will draw people from the city as well as an incredible view of downtown Knoxville from both inside and outside the project. The presence of the rowing club in a prominent place along the river will allow for maximum exposure and increased engagement with the community in regards to rowing events such as seasonal regattas. The architectural language of the Boathouse is simple. It is focused both inward towards the courtyard, and simultaneously out towards the river for optimal views of boat races and downtown. The design then utilizes a starker south façade for the blocking of solar radiation while solar panels and a vented metal roof do the same from above. The wood slating that wraps most of the building is reminiscent of shipyards where old racing skulls were built by hand, and it also dissolves at some moments to allow views of the river and courtyard while still blocking out unwanted glare from the western sun.

SITUATION AERIAL
The focus of the semester was the design of a net-zero energy brewpub and beer garden. The semester was broken into two parts, with the first being the making of a programming book and the second part being design. The programming book had sections on energy use, user needs and experience, the brewing process, precedent studies, and site and climate analyses. My partner and I chose to place our project in the warm and arid climate of Marfa, Texas. We placed the brewpub along a railroad and an existing arroyo. The chosen site contains existing concrete walls presumably used as temporary cattle stalls during past decades. A proposed train stop services the existing Sunset Limited Amtrak line that runs from New Orleans to Los Angeles. The brew house is pulled away from the rest of the program and acts as an unconditioned shed that interacts with the beer garden, showcasing the brewing process. The fermentation process is sunken underground in a tunnel that leads into the restaurant where the cold storage takes place. This helps keep the tanks closer to the necessary temperature for fermentation and provides a glimpse into the process from the garden above. The main building utilizes cross ventilation in the summer months to cool the dining area. Stack ventilation air is taken in along a green edge and moved into a plenum beneath the floor for distribution. The existing concrete walls act as thermal mass, as does a concrete floor during the few night hours where heating is necessary. An evaporative cooling tower that services the kitchen and bar helps with cooling loads during the hottest summer hours.

PHOTOS OF LAKOTA CHILDREN AT GOVERNMENT SCHOOLS (BEFORE AND AFTER)
As American westward expansion claimed more and more of indigenous lands, the Indians were eventually forced onto the reservations where they are today. Many were forced to change their religion, clothing, and other important cultural aspects such as their dwellings. Simultaneous to this, the story of the Plains Bison was unfolding in a rapid and egregious way. In 1870, in a form of indirect genocide, the US government began exterminating bison. By 1890, the number of Bison on the American Plains had dropped from a pre-Columbus level of an estimated 60 million down to 750. There is no culture in which these two stories are more closely intertwined than that of the Lakota Sioux. For centuries these peoples lived nomadically on the plains, managing the landscape, and using the bison for food, clothing, and tipi coverings. The tipi was the chief means of cultural narrative, relaying values and beliefs in terms of metaphor and performance, about how society and nature are related.
INDIGENOUS BISON POPULATION
Today, many small bison herds have been started in hopes of restoring the species to its former state of health and ecological importance. Only four genetically pure bison herds exist in North America, the largest of which is in Wind Cave National Park in South Dakota. Similarly, the Lakota values of ecological responsibility and living lightly on the land have in some ways been pushed out of the public mind, though they are becoming increasingly important to society as a whole. The project seeks to engage the visitor in a dialogue between the Lakota ethic of dwelling that allowed the bison to persist for centuries on the plains, and the way Americans are dwelling today. Thus, a bison station in Wind Cave National Park is designed to pair ecological restoration with cultural narrative.

AIA TN CONVENTION LOCATION: NASHVILLE, TN PROGRAM: EXHIBIT FOR UT COLLEGE OF ARCHITECTURE AND DESIGN SUMMER 2013 TIME FRAME: 10 WEEKS PARTNERS: HALEY ALLEN, JOSEPH WESSELS
TRANSPORTED TO NASHVILLE VIA VAN
MODEL BASE STORES ENTIRE EXHIBIT
EFFICIENT SET-UP TIME
During the summer of 2013, I was hired by the UT College of Architecture and Design to design and build an exhibit for the AIA TN Convention in Nashville. The exhibit showcased the College’s Design-Build projects. The exhibit included a display system for drawings, the drawings themselves, and a presentation model of the New Norris House, the college’s most recently completed design-build project. Working alongside two of my peers, we fabricated everything in Knoxville and then transported it to Nashville for exhibition. The entire system can be collapsed and stored inside the model base. In order for this to happen, the verticals in the system are made up of two pieces that are connected with a spline that is bolted in place. The shelves notch in from either side and are bolted through the back. The shelves are grooved on top and bottom to allow the drawings, which are mounted on rigid board, to be displayed at various depths and positions. The model is a representation of the New Norris House, which was recognized by the AIA COTE as one of the Top 10 Green Projects in 2013. The model is mostly basswood with the topography done out of high-density foam and cut on the CNC mill.

COMBINATION OVERLAY
This studio was run as a research studio with a schematic design solution as the outcome. Our research was to be focused within the five boroughs of New York City, but other than that, was open to personal preference. I used ArcGIS to analyze various data sets and relationships within the city. I overlayed data concerning race, income, and mayoral election results. I found a relationship between areas that are mono-ethic, poorer, and voted against Mayor Bloomberg in the last election. I zeroed in on one of these areas with a focus on schools, which are highly controlled by the Mayor. I was looking at the tension between district schools and charter schools. I examined public libraries and their relationship to overall literacy rates within the Washington Heights neighborhood. This led me to place a family literacy center within the neighborhood. I chose the George Washington Bridge Bus Terminal as my site. The existing station was designed by Pier Nervi in 1963. The station is situated over Interstate 95 when it comes into the city from New Jersey. It is the most traveled bridge in the world. The station has an adjacent parking garage that was never finished and is now just a shell floating over the sixteen lanes of highway below. My proposal is to inhabit half of that shell with parking and retail and create an adjacent park. Within the park, a small tower acts as the literacy center. The center is made up of individual “learning pods” where families can come to learn English together. These pods sit within large trusses that rest on circulation towers. Within the large atrium, a café, two auditoria, and a winter garden library are stacked one upon the other.

MIXING OF GROUT
The UT College of Architecture and Design is currently creating a publication called LifeHouse. It is a pamphlet that is meant for free distribution to Haitians wishing to build their own home. In the aftermath of the 2010 earthquake, many Haitians now live in fear and uncertainty about the structural integrity of their own homes. This prototype was completed as part of a seminar course examining housing design at the level of the construction detail. We were asked to choose an issue and examine it through design in a way that our idea could be built at full scale, documented, and included in the LifeHouse publication. Each student’s work was to be a tool that any Haitian could understand, adapt, and apply to their own dwelling.
CONNECTOR BLOCK
1/2 BLOCK
I was interested in the problem of structural stability. How can a system of construction allow a home to stand against earthquake forces? How can two structures be designed in such a way that they fit together to increase their strength? The design focuses on a type of wall construction that allows for the easy piecing together of housing in a flexible way. Specifically, I considered how reinforced CMU walls can stitch together. I think this is a viable option in Haiti because of the relative ease of learning to build with a module the size of a block, as well as the relative abundance of CMU and rebar within Haiti. Additionally, rebar could be left exposed at the top of the wall construction in order for the roof to become structurally tied with the foundation in a way that would make it resilient in a hurricane. This idea is also flexible in terms of time and sequence and could be employed effectively over a period of a few months or a few years. It is easy to learn and easy to customize based on size of a unit and whether or not one is adding on to a house or building one for a different family. Many thanks to General Shale for their generous donation of all the mortar and concrete block used in the completion of this project. CONCEPT SKETCHES

SKETCHES FROM MEETINGS WITH STUDENTS
PROGRESSIVE SERIES OF STUDY MODELS
In the spring of my fourth year, I was asked by Professor Robert French to work with a team of students on a proposal for the courtyard at Norris Middle School in Norris, TN. Throughout the semester, we met with students at the school in collaborative sessions to discuss their ideas for the space as well as our own. We received valuable feedback from them in terms of brainstorming and critiques of our work along the way. This was a very eye-opening and rewarding experience for us. At the end of the semester, we produced three boards of drawings and a model that were kept at the school for fundraising purposes. The project is poised to move forward into construction documents pending funding. The existing courtyard sits adjacent the cafeteria between two classroom buildings and is paved over with asphalt. Our proposal seeks to activate the courtyard for various uses at various times of the day while still providing cover to those walking to and from the adjacent buildings. Brick is used for pavers and as structure for knee walls and planters. A lightweight steel frame supports a translucent canopy of polygal which provides shelter while still providing a nice quality of light. Both flowers and vegetables are planted to provide color and aroma as well as food for the adjacent cafeteria. Several seating areas provide space for eating, socializing, and holding class outside.

SUN, WIND, AND LIGHT, 3RD EDITION ILLUSTRATOR AND LAYOUT DESIGNER SPRING 2011 - SPRING 2012 PUBLISHED BY JOHN WILEY AND SONS, 2014
During my third and fourth years of school, I was privileged to work with Professor Mark DeKay on the 3rd edition of Sun, Wind, and Light. During this time I worked on illustrations and layout design. I did scores of ink-on-mylar illustrations, working from drawings, photographs, and sketches. Many of the illustrations were refined using Adobe Photoshop. Often times, completing these drawings would include large amounts of research and numerous iterations. Through this, I acquired a great understanding of passive building design and sustainable practices and was exposed to many projects across the globe. I also worked on layout design for the printed book. This included tasks like the placing of illustrations, the creation of tables and matrices, and text editing. Using Adobe InDesign and working back and forth with Mark on the more than 700 final pages, I gained valuable experience in both graphics and publishing.

GROUND LEVEL FLOOR PLAN
Thomas Jefferson’s academic village has ten pavilions. Pavilion XII is a part of a proposed expansion of the Lawn. The proposed pavilion is to serve as the secret meeting place of the Society of the Confabulatores Nocturni, who carry on a fascination with the night as they gather in their secret chamber to tell stories by candlelight. One of the most striking architectural ideas conveyed by the Lawn is the idea of layering. This project seeks to pick up on the idea of layering and apply it to the transparency of light and space in relation to a specific material and place. Sandblasted structural glass is contrasted with Virginia red brick in an attempt to portray varying levels of transparency and solidity. These ideas are indicative of the way the form was derived, having been thought of as a mass being carved into and molded. Some places are pierced more than others and light is allowed to penetrate through the skin. The façade on the second story of the Lawn elevation is engineered as a double façade that begins to track time of day, temperature, and season. The outer layer is electronically controlled to crank open and closed as the indoor temperature varies, while the interior windows are manually operated. Thus, on a spring day one might find themselves enjoying a nice breeze from the Lawn entering in to the most celebrated space of the project, the reading room. Ideas of layering exist at a smaller scale as the bookshelves lack backing, allowing light to penetrate to the exterior when a book is removed, and a rice paper screen hides a private study nook. Layering and spatial transparency have been connected to a specific place on the Lawn, especially with concern for the play of light, reflecting Jefferson’s own concern for layering and the perception of the university.

MAIN COURTYARD
The client for this project is a non-profit organization called Casa de Sara. They currently run a small private kindergarten in Bolivia. They have purchased a new piece of property and are looking to expand their school to include up to sixth grade. During the semester, we worked collaboratively with their team to discuss program needs and Bolivian culture. In a school is the power to change a life forever. So, I have designed this school believing that school can change the lives of these Bolivian children. For me, it is not just about how the site works with the program. It is about the way the little, impoverished 6 year old girl feels when she is walking to lunch or sitting in the floor playing with a block - the fact that she is there on the carpet learning and being loved and given the opportunity to search and discover with her mind. The vision is to take their abundance of rain water and use it to meet their scarcity of clean drinking water. Aquaponic ponds will store some of the water and be used as a tool in fish farming and subsequent enrichment of the soil. This makes for a less dried out ground and more growing cycles per year. The ponds and the farm with chickens, goats, and various crops will serve the cafeteria and empower a market run out of the front of the school. This will provide knowledge, food, and jobs for some parents within the school community and overall better nutrition for all parties involved. Special attention is paid to the sense of community and scale of a child as to create a close-knit, welcoming environment. Connection to nature and the environment is meant to be inherent through the use of rainwater, fostering a knowledge of climate and agriculture. Also, spatial transparency towards the rear of the site via the courtyard and cafeteria enhances the farming and housing aspects of the program’s influence on the academic culture as a whole.
