SIXTH AND CANAL STREET STAIR TOWER WORK: Academic COURSE: Architectural Fundamentals II INSTRUCTOR: Newton D’souza, Ph.D. DATE: spring 2004 DESIGN PERIOD: 4 weeks SITE: Menomonee River Valley, Milwaukee, WI PROGRAM: stair tower - connect Canal and 16th Streets with underground metro stop
The stair is located in the once industrial rich Menomonee River Valley which has been revitalized into a regional entertainment hub with the construction of a casino, university sport fields, and museum developments. The stair connects Canal street and the 16th street bridge with a metro stop located below ground. The design uses glass and steel to create a landmark that acknowledges the valley’s current entertainment importance and its industrial past.

NORTH AVENUE FITNESS CENTER WORK: Academic COURSE: Architectural Design II INSTRUCTOR: Brian Schermer, Ph.D. DATE: spring 2005 DESIGN PERIOD: 6 weeks SITE: vacant lot, east side, Milwaukee, WI PROGRAM: Fitness center and connection to Oak Leaf trail system - weight and cardio space, lap pool, locker rooms, juice bar, group activity room, squash courts, spa, internet cafe, meeting room, offices, and support spaces
The fitness center is physically connected to a biking/skating/jogging trail that was created when the city reclaimed a natural corridor once used by the railway. The site is squeezed between two entertainment venues and is located in Milwaukee’s east side the entertainment district. The design maximizes connections between the lower corridor trail and street level by placing pools, locker rooms, and mechanical space below ground level; and stacking the remaining programmatic elements into a narrow three story copper skin structure; with exception of ground level internet cafe. The design solution allows for various private and public connections between the two levels in visual/physical and public/private forms.

Castillo, A. Janis, and A. Yoho SITE: The Rookery, Chicago, Illinois PROGRAM: Graham Foundation - lecture hall, library, temporary exhibit hall, permanent exhibit hall, workshop, conference room, meeting rooms, offices, support spaces.
EXHIBITED: Graham Foundation, Chicago. 2006 University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee School or Architecture and Urban Planning, Milwaukee. 2006 The group project focused on a proposed relocation of the Graham Foundation to two 1/2 floors of the historic Rookery building in downtown Chicago. The interior project is located in a Burnham and Root building with a light court redesigned my Frank Lloyd Wright. The historical importance of this structure represents the formative period of high rise design layout. Timeless principles used in the Rookery design were incorporated into the interior project.

The institute is located on a hillside site that is opposite and partially on axis to the Temple of the Tooth Relic and old royal palace. The site is surrounded by numerous pedestrian and vehicular paths that includes the primary railroad track that heads to Sri Lanka’s northern territories.

The design creates linear gallery space at ground floor that is parallel to the railroad/pedestrian track which can be open to outdoor elements by use of coiling and sliding wall systems. Institute space, classrooms, offices, and library are stacked along the hillside with space in between to create courtyards.

MUSÉE DES ARTS ET METIERS WORK: Academic COURSE: Paris & Rome Design Studio INSTRUCTOR: Celia D Liu DATE: fall 2006 DESIGN PERIOD: 4 weeks SITE: Canal St. Martin, Paris, France PROGRAM: technology museum - galleries, lecture hall, library, museum store, offices, support spaces,
SITE PLAN 1. Musée des Arts et Metiers 2. Parc de la Villette 3. pedestrian and vehicular bridges 4. park / cafes/ social space 5. Place de Stalingrad /Ledoux tax station 6. canal lock 7. metro stop 8. Parc des Buttes Chaumont
The design calls for the museum to be placed above a portion of the canal that is narrow and short, surrounded by ten story residential blocks, and located between two of the widest parts of the canal. This location will naturally give the museum a dominant but not intrusive presents over its surroundings. In addition, the museum’s location causes it to be a entry portal for different segments of the canal and to Paris herself; reminiscent to Ledoux’s tax station that is on axis with the museum. Visitors enter the museum by means of a secondary structure located in a plaza boarding the canal and museum. Once inside the secondary structure, visitors go through a narrow underground tunnel where they will take an elevator up to the museum proper and into a monumental atrium space. The approach signifies the greatness of technology.

RONALD E. McNAIR SCHOLAR RESEARCH WORK: Academic PAPER: City Image of the World Heritage City of Guanajuato, Mexico: Residents’ Perception of the City and its relation to City Preservation and City Development MENTOR: Kapila D. Silva, Ph.D. DATE: May 21-July 27 2006
ABSTRACT: This study attempts to define the imageability of the City of Guanajuato and how it is related to the preservation of its cultural heritage. The study attempts to identify various aspects that define the imageability of the city, in terms of (a) the overall sense of the city or “city sense”; (b) the core-dimensions of the city sense; (c) risk-factors that are detrimental to the city sense; and (d) understanding both the significant physical features and symbolic meanings associated with the city and its features. These findings are then compared with the current preservation activities in the city, especially World Heritage Nomination criteria and significant historic places that are preserved under this Nomination. It is expected that this comparison would point out the validity of the theoretical approach as well as the success of the current preservation activity in place in Guanajuato. The research design followed a qualitative case study method. Since the research focused more on the residents’ perceptions of the City of Guanajuato. Also, multiple sources of data that included archival data, interview data, observation data, and photo documentation of the city were collected in order to form a comprehensive description of the residents’ subjective understanding of the city. The findings revealed that Guanajuato has a definable imageability and a strong city sense, derived collectively by the core-dimensions of sense of historic solemnity, sense of scenic serenity, and sense of community. Through documents related to the city’s World Heritage declaration, it seems that when Guanajuato was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage City the government of Guanajuato and UNESCO understood that the importance of the city did not lay with one or on a couple buildings but instead was found as being an ensemble of tangible attributes such as the terrain, how terrain adopted to the city, collection of urban spaces and baroque buildings and on intangible attributes of the city’s history on silver mining. Through interviews and field observation, I realized that the scatted buildings and cultural activities collectively contributed to the sense of the city and its image. Therefore this collective sense of city must be understood and promoted through the preservation and development programs in order to foster the city’s world heritage status.
