High St. Elementary Columbus City Elementary School Location: Columbus, Ohio Fall 2018 Junior Studio Instructor: Justin Diles High Street Elementary plays with choreographing views of the landscape and filtering views of the city through different systems. The focus of the project is to create a story between the two worlds and the children as they move throughout the building. Creating sloping and light filled hallways gives the children a sense of free exploration and imagination. The intent of the building is to create an essentialist focused school with organized traditional classrooms combined with qualities of an unschooling focus in the hallways. This is accomplished by expanding the hallways to become private study nooks and projecting out to the landscape. Requirements of the project was to experiment with masonry. The facades of the school are clad with terracotta bricks, rotated to create an animated facade while filtering the views and sunlight. The terracotta bricks are contrasted with vision and spandrel glass creating a glossy facade and opening up the views through the courtyards.

Addressing the two conditions of the site, city vs ravine, the building takes on two conditions, bar vs cluster.


Framing of changing views as children experience the long light filled hallways. Different opportunities to experience between city, man made courtyard, and natural ravine views.

Courtyards punch through the buildings allowing hallways to take its perimeter. Glass lined courtyards allow views to and across one wing of the building to another.

The lower level includes the science room,a collaborative work space, and the mezzanine area for the library. The regular classrooms are LOWER LEVEL connected to special classrooms by a bridge hanging over the slope. 1’ = 1/32�

This level contains classrooms for the older students. It holds the linear bar front facing High St. and focuses on creating space outside the classrooms for collaborative or independent work. Nooks between classes and a large multipurpose room were made for additional space.

02 Sculpture Home Live/ Work Building Location: Franklinton, Ohio Fall 2018 Junior Studio Instructor: Justin Diles The task was to design a home that could function both as a live and work space in the suburbs of Columbus.The required program was two units and a shared work space. The occupation of the residence are sculptures, two owners and their two apprentices. A sense of privacy was created in the lower level by having minimal windows. The necessary natural lighting for a studio was brought in and controlled by sculptural light tunnels placed in various light-wells that pierce through the home. The light tunnels become exposed to the interior of the home creating sculptural surprises and burst of natural light as they circulate the home. The form of the project is about these large cylindrical light wells contained in a regular form. The interior walls are curved to create a sense of fluidity and movement between spaces between both units.

Poche Pavillion Olentangy River Park Pavillion Location: Columbus, Ohio Fall 2018 Junior Studio Instructor: Justin Diles The objective of this park pavilion was to create a gathering space along the olentangy river that could function in different ways throughout different times of the year. The pavilion consists of two private interior sitting areas, changing rooms, a kitchen, several exterior sitting areas, and two large pavilions intended for family picnics or musical performances. The approach of the project was to create a series of pavilions formed by two curvy and playful lines that address four conditions of the park, the river, bike path, bush forest, and open field. The form of the building is intended to draw people in by reaching out to the bike path and catering to the many needs and hobbies of people in the park. Different forms, levels of shading and enclosure establish various spaces by carving into the poche of structure.

04 Escaping Toys Toy Shell Time Capsule Sophomore Studio Spring 2018 Instructor: Dow Kimbrell The objective of the project was to create a toy time capsule. The time capsule was required to consist of three shells and one larger shell to enclose all three forms. The intent of this design was to create a story of movement between the toys and their shells. By treating the shells as a pliable material it would respond to the variable movement of the toys as if they were trying to escape. Starting with simple shapes such as a box, sphere, and a donut the shells become unique to the selected toys based on their characteristics. The design is a representation of the shells as if it was frozen in a moment of time, as the material would be constantly changing. The methods of starting with a basic shape and letting the shell respond to the possible movement is used for the exterior shell. As the original shape of the shell was a rectangle and it has shifted and pierced into, creating apertures for viewing the shells inside.

Slinky Toy Shell The slinky was placed in a donut shaped shell, to allow it to move in an infinite circle. The rings of different scale wrapping around the donut represent the shells adaption to the slinky pushing up against the sides as it moves around.

Squishy Ball Toy This toy was placed in a cube as if it was the “kryptonite� of the sphere. The toys tenticles pierce holes on the side of the cube as it moves around in space trying to escape. The shells response to the holes in attempt to cover them up is to grow more cubes.

Ball and Paddle Toy The shell of this toy started off as a sphere and was manipulated by the ball attached to the paddle bouncing off the interior. In addition to the shell being responsive to whats happening in the interior its affected by the squishy ball shell underneath it, creating an impression on the bottom.

05 DPAC Dance Performing Arts Center Location: Columbus, Ohio Spring 2018 Sophomore Studio Instructor: Dow Kimbrell The objective of this project was to create a structure that supports hybrid genres of performance art at different scales of interaction. The program for the building was two formal performance areas, two informal spaces, and encounter spaces. The encounter and informal performance areas are similar with the idea of flexibility to the kinds of performances that take place by not having fixed seating and specific orientation of room. The intent of the design was to create a building that looks as if it grew up from the ground plane. Manipulating the ground to be stepping fragments allowed for multipurpose spaces to be created on the exterior through submerged and lifted planes. The interior of the building becomes a larger scale of this, having slowly stepping circulation that then splits in two, creating a double loop of circulation around the building. One path becomes focused on interior views into other spaces while the other is focused on views out to the exterior performance space.

06 Sketches Study Abroad Location: Western Europe May 2018 Instructor: Jaquline Gargus These sketches are from my month long European study abroad program to five countries, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, France, and Spain. We visited over 250 architectural sites and just under 40 cities. We observed and analyzed architecturally significant features of each location as well as the surrounding cultures, prompting many theory, structure, and designbased discussions. This trip was transformational in allowing me to realize the importance of preparation, precedent research, and experiencing the real-life effect spaces can have that isn’t possible from mere images.

Guggenheim, Bilbao

Throughout the trip we had sketching assignments where we were given an average of five minutes, at most fifteen. We were also given research assignments that we completed before the trip in order to present our findings to our classmates when we arrived at the site. I was selected for a research award for this trip. Nimes Plazza, Nimes
