SONGDU NATIONAL MUSEUM OF WRITING SONGDU, SOUTH KOREA SPRING 2018 l THESIS l FERDA KOLOTAN
The thesis reevaluates the museum as an experiential environment that generates visual effects, rather than to exhibit artifacts. It argues that museum designs are just as important as the content inside, which asserts the importance of architecture and opens the possibility for pushing design. This goal is achieved by introducing Denise Scott Brown and Robert Venturi’s ‘duck vs decorated shed’ but rather than have one or the other, create a hybridization of the two concepts. By presenting a unique form that is just as important as the objects within (the duck) and layering it with surface detail (the decorated shed) that generates surface effects, its peculiar presence among the urban landscape indicates its inclination for the aesthetic and therefore promotes innovative design.

Building And Site The site is designed as an extension to the building which represents the form of a land mass. I was interested in creating a relationship that appears to translate from 3D to 2D. I achieved this objective by mimicking the fabric of the building, introducing only a slight variation in directionality and spacing. The artificial landscape contains active and passive landscapes that frame and respond to the urban setting, offering new perspectives of central park, the lake and the city. 10

Surface Detail Fine Grain
The Decorated Shed Further exploring mechanisms of stacking and array, I generated a variation of unique surface effects that work to enhance the visual allure of the museum. Functionally, the surface details represent a louver system and serve as a means of controlling direct and indirect sunlight. 12

HIGH RISE ON HIGH LINE MANHATTAN, NEW YORK FALL 2015 l THIRD YEAR STUDIO l ALEXIS ROCHAS
Located at the Northern termination of DS&R’s High Line Park on the west side of Manhattan island, 10 Hudson Yards Tower prominently faces those walking North along the elevated park. Standing 870’ tall, 10 Hudson Yards Tower distinguishes itself from the surrounding high-rises through its unique form and tectonic . Contrary to typical towers in which the silhouette is very distinguished, the tectonics aims to blur the reading of the edge and create a smooth transition between building and sky.

Our proposal for the redesign of the Southern California Institute of Architecture, located in the center of the arts district in Los Angeles, seeks to re-invent the idea of student interaction within academia. The challenge for the project was to produce a comprehensive project based on the school’s existing program, which demonstrated an understanding of structural, environmental envelope, life safety provisions, building assembly, and the principles of sustainability.
Our approach to a positive creative interaction between students was to create a space which dismissed all types of privacy. By reducing the amount of partitions and exclusions, the students would be confronted to an open air space which offered complete visual accessibility. The project seeks to connect several programmatic typologies, which vary by size and form, with atrium’s that reflect themselves as carvings from the exterior. Due to this approach, the project

holds multiple readings as both layered single object and an erosion of multiple objects. The facade system held the interest of blurring the distinction between part to whole relationships. Although the atrium’s main purpose is to welcome light into the deepest parts of the building, it’s second purpose holds the responsibility of creating dynamic public circulation, which enables students from different years to interact which one another, eventually cre-
ating a healthy relationship based on teamwork and creative collaborations. Site was having three different ways of entering the site as a pedestrian, and all paths would direct to an outdoor courtyard leading up to the entrance of the building where visual accessibility from the exterior to the interior was possible. The facade system held the interest of blurring the buildings part to whole relationship using a double facade pattern. From the inside out: the first
layer is GFRP panels which uses the directionality of the grain of the panels to create alignments and misreadings. The second layer is a photovoltaic panel system which is aestheticised to be used as a secondary grain which overlaps the primary directionality of the GFRO panels to accentuate the misreadings and further blur out the spatial definition of the building. The third layer is an aperture which disregards the two previous grains, completing the full obscurity of the project.

RECONSTRUCTING THE DATONG LIBRARY DATAONG, CHINA FALL 2013 l TECTONICS l MAXI SPINA
Preston Scott Cohen and his team presented themselves with a challenge; exploration in resolving the formal properties of a constantly changing, multifaceted surface. It was realized that the form could not be approached through the techniques and software used at the time; Cohen had to take on a new way of designing these complex system of parts. Around the time of this building being designed the term BIM was being discussed as a means of a more efficient way to design. This software has actually affected us as students who use the products 3d space to solve and challenge our own design ideas. Unfortunately due to client complications and public frustration with the building’s design (as well as others being built up in the area), completion time was being pushed back and was eventually terminated as the building was being completed. The idea Cohen has about this specific formal property has yet to be resolved and is still taking in form in many of his newer buildings. The main feature of the library was a double helix ramp way, which not only acted as the main means of circulation, but also, displayed the books along its edges. 33

Facade The building’s facade functions on a series of connecting frames to handle the intricate multi-faceted paneling. The stone veneer and space become connected by a series of bolts attached to a thinner flexible frame that sits in between the two. The thinner frame is attached to the space with a 3d printed joint which fuses them together. Finally, the main frame composed of steel beams is offset far from the facade due the complexity of geometry and leaves the interior walls to be a smoothed mimic of the exterior. The end result for the Datong Library presented some beautiful results and some misunderstood finishes.

By manipulating the various characterizations of the facade’s articulation such as resolution: depth, intensity, subdivision and randomization, the goal was to achieve confusion regarding the definition of a facade onto another. Therefore lose the existing hierarchy between surfaces.
Preceding the extensive sculpting of the facade articulation, the purpose of subdivision reacts to the mass by enabling directionality and orientation. The interaction between two dimensional and three dimensional readings produces a possible strategy for an aperture proposal.
The third proposal provokes the conversation between two and three dimensions by exploiting the aperture strategy through a modified system of panel subdivisions. Louvers are therefore created to welcome indirect lighting without cooperating with the intensity of raw daylight.

By manipulating the various characteristics of the facade’s articulation, such as resolution, depth, intensity, subdivision but continuous flow through the facade, the goal was to achieve similar effects as the original of a continuous system but with different parameters. Therefore keeping the existing hierarchy between surfaces at a less dense intensity.
Preceding the extensive sculpting of the facade articulation, the purpose of subdivision reacts to the mass by enabling directionality and orientation. The interaction between two dimensional and three dimensional readings produces a possible strategy for an aperture proposal.
The chosen proposal provokes the conversation between two and three dimensions by exploiting the aperture strategy through a modified system of panel subdivisions. Metal louvers are therefore created to welcome indirect lighting without cooperating the intensity of raw daylight throughout the facade with chosen form articulations puncturing through the facade creating apertures on the interior walls.

Transformation Description The study of all the transformations tries to explore the complexity of Cohen’s geometric design. I hoped to play into the origami structure by making the tile pieces more active. The way I achieved that is through opening the pieces individually, making them into operable windows. I imagined the facade as a more metallic material that folds on a louver system. In terms of transparency to get natural light through, we cut through the frame system in the form of triangular slits to still connect to the overall design. As through the previous process, the folds were developed in script as Cohen did and the specific tiling and folds within the form were made by hand. Seeing that the process of development is the same as the design team at Cohen’s firm, it seems to reveal a unchanging process. There is only so much reliance we can have on both a script technology and a semifree form technology; they both serve their purpose only for so long. It provokes the conversation between two and three dimensions by exploiting the aperture strategy through a modified system of panel subdivisions. Metal louvers are therefore created to welcome indirect lighting without cooperating with the intensity of raw daylight throughout the facade with chosen form articulations puncturing through the facade, creating apertures on the interior walls. 38

PRIVATE DINING ROOM: VIKING CRUISES The feature wine rack wall was developed to make a big statement in an otherwise tiny space. Due to size constraints, the impact of the design needed to be efficient in plan, while maximizing the real estate and presentation for visitors. A wine rack is like an advertisement, a billboard per say, so my idea was to transform a standard wine rack into something extraordinary. I approached the design using techniques of array; a special interest I had developed throughout my thesis. I continued to see the project through to completion, in order to reinforce the design intent. What I gained most from this project, is understanding the amount of complexity that lives within a rhino model. Taking a conceptual design and invoking craft and attention to detail, has taught me the rigor necessary to take a design through construction. Note: The rendering to the left was presented to the client at the end of the conceptual design phase and was developed using 3ds Max. 43

WATERSTONE RESIDENCE Located in the heart of Santa Monica, this single-family residence was seeking to expand. Uncertain to the extent of expansion, we presented the client with several massing studies; each with a slight shift in scale. The conclusion: the addition of a new second story and a remodel of the first floor. I developed several plan schemes, each honing in on meeting the desires of the client, while maintaining set restrictions and zoning requirements. We narrowed down to three schemes (portrayed to the left), which I produced digital models and renderings to present to the client. The biggest take away was understanding the unique set of conditions that governed any given project and the process that follows to understand and address each underlying constraint. This aspect to architecture is one I appreciate for it informs organic, original solutions. 49
