Glacier Library

Gateway Studio First Year Masters

The Architecture of the New Ottawa Public Library proposal aims to utilize snow as a resource. Thus far, snow has been considered a negative force for any design in the past. The concept analyzes the aspects of snow to be used in a positive and attractive design featurette by being accumulated on the facade and roofs to later slope down and collect in a snow storage tank to later be used as a resource. The Glacier Library project incorporates an innovative snow cooling distriution system that aims to evoke the experience and wonder of the natural habitat found within a Glacier. The System is designed and tailored to function accordingly with old, new and progressive Library functions. Visitors will experience a slight "brisk" when travelling through the library and then making their way through areas that expose melted water entering into the interior, similair to within a Glacier. By continuously ventilating and distributing cold air provided from the snow, the building is able to be "air conditioned" without the use of an actual air conditioner (or at a minimum) and all the expensive energy consuming mechanisms involved with it, therefore reducing the cost of energy consumption by approximately 75%.

Prometheus Prometheus Phase I Social Industries

Project Prometheus is a speculative architectural vision which proposes to enhance the Canadian Space Program into a growing economic contributor for Canada. Prometheus envisions an architectural vocabulary for establishing a central spaceport location and rocket launch site in the landscape of Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. Vernacular economies aim to visualize the process, development and execution of space technologies by aiding scientists to visualize a future for commercial and scientific space travel. Phase I of Prometheus focuses on research about the Canadian Space Agency, mainly its importance to the world-wide space effort, and exploring in conceptual format an architectural vocabulary through drawings, models and stiched collages. Visualizing how local economies could propel the production of a spaceport of Canada in the region this project aims to showcase how such conceptual ideas will appear within Nova Scotia's Landscapes.

Model Explorations

In Phase I of Prometheus, the initial focus was turned to the development of conceptual models that indicated space related technologies represented in a landscape setting. The Left page shows a model of a conceptual contour crafter - a device that can create structures from lunar material. This model was created by layering multiple laser cut sheets of a landscape where a lego-reused device wanders around the landscape creating a crater for the excavation of undiscovered natural resources. The Right Page presents a series of launch towers in different size depending on the space craft that would be used. It was important to represent what happens above ground similairly to what happens below grade a series of dug-out craters that would be deep enough for collecting the exhaust from the space crafts in order to preserve the existing landscape as much as possible.

Prometheus Phase II Social Industries

Phase II of Prometheus dives into the characteristic details of an industrialized architecture that would serve as a model for a Canadian spaceport. Three main funcions are developed during this phase: the design of the Vehicle Assembly Building - a structure that would house and construct all varieties of spacecrafts, A master plan for a spaceport that would have large buildings - each focusing on one of its designated zoning provisions, and the development of shuttle launch pads that would be placed into the master plans launch sites.

Today's university is an age old institution that has been slow to change and unable to keep pace with the evolution of society and how humans interact in the rapidly changing environment. It is weighed down by bloated beurocracy and the political agendas of those in control. Thus the accessibility of education is impeded and more within the reach of the privileged. University will inevitably need to conform to the economic landscape in order to maintain relevancy. The Universities will need to become fashionable by creating a brand identity that will transform universities into sellers of knowledge as products. Knowledge will be offered exclusively as digital content that is hosted by data centers, which current university buildings will need to be retrofitted to accommodate. Universities will cease to exist as gathering spaces for the attainment of knowledge, but will become a house for the dissemination of knowledge. Courses will be accessible by everyone, but direct and instant access will be available in established social gathering places. This virtualization of education will dissolve the traditional understanding of the classroom.

Urban Housing in Ottawa with Graeme Kennedy, Stantec Competiton Nominee

Ottawa, the national capital of Canada is facing one of the largest urban expansions since the earliest 20th century. While city officials and developers have aimed to find the solution in high-rise condo towers with expensive units, the Lore aims to provide an alternative solution in the Canadian Housing market. This project answers Ottawa's growing demand for dense urban living within the city that focuses on accommodating a variety of affordable housing typologies, fosters a sense of community, engages the existing artistic body, provides public space and direct access to public transportation. The site located at 950 Gladstone Avenue, is an industrial infill site that bridges the Lower Hintonburg and Preston Street, which both contain very distinctive cultural elements in Ottawa. Currently the site is under review and a CDP is being implemented in that area. In it, the community is requesting that the area be turned into an artistically oriented neighborhood with commercial venues. The Lore strives to create a "mega-block" where multiple program functions are placed on one 3-acre site to answer the needs of the local community as well as the city of Ottawa. The Lore proposes to inject a large community garden surrounded by multiple residential components with an integrated arts station that would function cohesively with the proposed O-train stop 3 levels below the site which includes park-andride facilities. The Lore features many styles of dwellings to accommodate a large spectrum of demographics, some of them including the current market buyers, new home comers, Multi-generational families and new upcoming artists. Residences will find benefit in all the units being cross-ventilated as well as an elevated sky-park for the residences only, where communal living would be enhanced to the maximum capacity.

BeCCC La Bibliothèque et Le Centre Communautaire de la Confluence Nomination for Teron Scholarship

Through formal design strategies, this project explores the idea of integrating seemingly un-relatable programs into one size constraining site. A kayak club, a community oriented gymnasium and fitness centre along with a new expanded library are joined with the necessity or fitting a "5-a-side" soccer field. Due to the large program requirement, the challenge is to consider the community centre in relation to the existing urban fabrics. The site is located on the Place Nautique in the Confluence Quarter of Lyon, France. The Place Nautique is a large manmade basin connected to the Saone River created as part of the massive Lyon-Confluence redevelopment project, under which 370 acres of industrial land will be transformed into a new multi-use neighborhood for the city of Lyon. The solution for better community engagement involves placing the soccer pitch on the basin giving it direct access to the housing district across the basin, leaving space for a large public plaza on the site where we elevate the library on pilotis 2-storeys up to create the first modern library in the city of Lyon. Each program element is placed within one of 3 buildings which are identified by the color of the secondary skin of the façade cladding. The cladding is an innovative sunscreen p l a c e d 70cm away from the curtain wall which is comprised of ceramic tubes. This makes it an ideal cladding material. It is rust, fire, moisture, and damp proof and would last the entire life of the building.

A/C/R/C Almonte Carleton Research Centre

"Every time a student walks past a really urgent, expressive piece of architecture that belongs to his college, it can help reassure that he does have that mind, does have that soul" ~Louis Kahn The proposed Research Centre site is situated in the historic centre of Almonte, Ontario, initially known as "Shipman's Mills" that was first settled in approximately 1824. On it sits the Almonte Old Town Hall which is a designated historic building and is a highly regarded element within the town. There were two challenges for this project. Firstly, create a flexible and constantly adjustable institutional building by manipulating around the frustrating site conditions. Secondly, proposing an architectural presence that is being both respectful and innovative to the current site conditions and to the citizens of Almonte. The New Almonte Carleton Research Centre aims to provide multifunctional spaces, available for any type of program of research, as well as becoming a collaborative satellite between the town hall and the students and researchers of Carleton University. The public would benefit from having full access to a new and modern library with traditional books along with computers, a new auditorium, an elevated river walk and a new public park on the roof intended to provide space for outdoor public events during any season. This solution manages to introduce a sisterly building to the town hall and being responsible to the surrounding context. "The nature of space reflects what it wants to be" ~ Louis Kahn

008 Modular Desk Studio IV Prototype Project Third year with Devin Braun, Neil Carder, Ulrich Mugamba, and Shaghayegh Poursalimi. Nomination for Teron Scholarship

Studio is a space where architecture students spread their new and creative ideas onto paper and physical models. For this project, our group focused on the particulars of studio space, its cohesive messiness and disorganization, as well as the space being a place of work. We concluded that the current students are taking up to much personal space and not promoting enough collaborative space. In our process we had evaluated the flow of studio, the nature of the rough finish of the Architecture Building, and new ways of creating both a personal and collaborative work desk. This project presented numerous questions that as a group we had to address regarding the original functions of the drawing board, a model desk and a place for a laptop. With the digital being a more prominent tool in the design field, we felt the need to keep some of the more traditional methods of drafting and cutting present in our design. We decided to re-use the pieces of a regular locker that had deteriorated over the course of its existence and upgrade it with our ideas to create an improved studio environment.

ARCHMedium Student Design Competition Entry with Audrey Caron and Macy Laporte, ARCHMedium Website Publication

The New San Francisco Fire Department Headquarters proposal reinvents the typology of the city's Fire department, it's long history and it's responsibility to the community. This new Building creates an environment that is suitable for all citizens to interact directly with the fire department through the Architecture, a concept that is slowly being neglected by public serving institutions.

The New Headquarters provides a large service area adjacent to The Embarcadero for immediate access to the city streets. The control and training towers ascend from the manmade landscape of the facility's roof representing the triumph over the fire in 1907. The physical appearance of steel cross bracing assures a safe and robust building while being accessible and fast serving in times of need.

Visitors may walk the paths along the ground level or venture up the sloped surfaces of the facility. The sloped arms bring the viewer along the horizon line until they reach the top where a view of the bridge is framed by the two towers.

The outdoor space provides an attraction with the appearance of the towers rising above the sloping structure which emphasizes San Francisco's efforts of revitalizing the city and will forever be remembered as a beacon of support.

AA Visiting School Workshop Publication in Building 22 book

In July 2013 the Azrieli School of Architecture and Urbanism hosted its first Architectural Association Visiting School for a nine day workshop. During the workshop, students from both Carleton and the AA were introduced to a series of intensive workshops on 3D-scanning, digital modeling in 3DSMax, animation and immersive projection. Using the scanned point clouds of Carbide Wilson's Ruins in Gatineau Park, Quebec, and re-modeling the points, we created a fabricated environment that was projected into the Architecture Building in order to re-imagine the ruin and the park through a 3D projection which formed an evocative experience of digital space.
