This mixed-use renovation and penthouse addition in TriBeCa is focused on creating sustainable luxury. The building is divided into two uses, one half for residences and the other half for offices spaces. Both side containing ground floor, cellar and subcellar commercial spaces. Sustainable features include the reuse of rainwater, a green wall and energy efficient materials, fixtures and appliances all made in the USA. In addition, the historic facade for both buildings will be restored with triple glazed tilt and turn windows, pending Landmarks approval.

FINNISH CULTURAL INSTITUTE IN NEW YORK
STUDIO. SPRING 2010
Final model
The intersecĆ&#x;on of Spring and Mercer
Gallery space
Early models
Conceptual model showing the changing Finnish character from Winter to Summer
Finns are widely know for their quiet nature. However, as the seasons change, a shift takes place. In Spring, a desire to be more extroverted is incited in parallel with the thawed landscape. I became interested in this change of character and also the contrasting landscape of New York and Helsinki. My goal was to create a recognizably Finnish landscape which matched the intensity of New York. Acting as a refuge for Finns looking for silence in the city that never sleeps, the project could also transform seasonally into a more sociable exhibit of Finnish art and culture.

PaƩerns for darƟng methods Fabricated panels
Structural and spaƟal strategy SpaƟal and structural models
Beginning with a flat sheet, our team manipulated fabric using darts. Darting is a construction method commonly used in the fashion industry which involves the cutting, removal and rejoining of material. The darting method was not only used to design the structural and spatial strategy but also the cladding and fenestration. During the studio, we built a prototype of the skin using HDPE, a smooth white plastic. In both scales of design we used seams to increase the volume and to create apertures. The fabric-like form was retained using hand-manipulations, a way of customizing each panel on site.

NUTRI-POD: FOOD PANTRY AND DISTRIBUTION CENTER
Urban farm network system along The Chicago River
STUDIO. SPRING 2011
POD system inserted into urban farms to adapt to seasonal growth
PotenĆ&#x;al site plan for the main food pantry and distribuĆ&#x;on center
To address the problem of hunger in the city of Chicago, one needs to look at the availability of fresh fruits and vegetables. Not only is the proximity to fresh food in urban areas a problem but this is amplified by the extreme regional climate and short growing season in Chicago. Nutri-POD endeavors to mediate the brown-field site along the Chicago River creating a grid of raised beds which could grow food during the summer but also act as foundations for storage units or greenhouses during winter. These farms could utilize the natural river network system using barges to distribute fresh food.

APARTMENTS
STUDIO. FALL 2009
Street view
SecƟonal perspecƟve of interior courtyards
RooŌop terraces
The urban fabric is deteriorating. Ruins of the city articulate the streets of St. Louis. Detached from the economic strife that plagues the north side, there is a beauty in the decrepit landscape. Although our architecture studio took a definite and optimistic position, seeing a sudden revitalization and most likely gentrification of the neighborhood, I took a different approach. I built for what was there or what could be. This lead me to the idea of reflection. The surface of the exterior panels are reflective adapting to the cities vicissitudes. In addition, unlike transparency, reflectivity creates an environment of contemplation. To create space for this, I manipulated the mass of the building to form inner courtyards and provide outdoor, protected space for the residents.
