MARKET HALL FALL 2017

01

Guelph, ON | Intermediate Studio III | Judith Birdsong The market hall is situated in the heart of Guelph, prompting it to be a pivotal center for the local community. The market hall aims to provide community interaction on different scales through the use of flexible market areas and a community urban garden. The building form takes on a rugged outline for it is inspired by the glacial history and gabled roofs of Guelph. The building form “melts� towards the river as the urban trail leads down to the waterfront.

Austin, TX | Comprehensive Studio | Michael Garrison Sited in Mueller, the Austin Green Joule is the center in which the Austin Energy Green Building Program is housed in. The program contains research laboratories to test new green technologies, an exhbition space to showcase sustainable products and methods, office spaces, review rooms and a greenhouse for vertical farming. A terra cotta screen wraps around the building, creating permeable outdoor gathering spaces and variable indoor lighting conditions. The greenhouse sits above, adorning the building as “the crown jewel� and becoming a visual icon of sustainability for the AEGB. Partner: Camille Vigil

London, UK | Advanced Studio | Simon Atkinson & Edna Ledesma Old Oak and Park Royal are a food manufacturing and warehousing district in West London. With plans to add a high speed national rail line on site, the area will become a business hub and a center of activity. However, the current area is unfriendly with few amenities for current residents and with train tracks dividing the northern and southern boundaries of the site. Our team decided to restitch the current region back into the greater urban fabric by creating an elevated park above those rail lines. My role in the project was to focus on mobility and connections across the site. The three levels of connection my proposal included were programmatic bridge parks, activated canal bridging, and walkable green corridors.

Team Members: Vanessa Bales, Kevin Choi & UJ Song

TECTONIC REFUGE SPRING 2018

04

Philadelphia, PA | Intermediate Studio IV | Juan Jofre-Lora A speculative proposal on the Delaware River, the Tectonic Refuge envisions a world in which wildlife can take over existing structures. The project is based on an existing decommissioned power station and employs scaffolding in various ways to reproduce habitats in which flora and fauna can thrive in. The project followed the format of the Fairy Tales Architecture Competition, where five fantastical images are accompanied by a narrative.

EXPLODED SITE AXON

Approached from a vast field of greenery, the smokestacks of the edifice could be seen towering over the landscape.

It appeared as if this power station had been abandoned mid-construction: vines and vegetation crawling up the partial concrete walls, scaffolding seemingly holding up more scaffolding, and wooden slats protruding every which way from the unglazed window frames of the building.

On the inside, however, there seemed to be a distinct arrangement of the wood. The slats were stacked and organized to form tunneling ramps. The walls of those tunnels were also made with wood, but the varying heights and apertures of the wood made the passerby feel elusive, as only glimpses of him could be seen traversing through the path. Those varying walls themselves turned into undulating curved canopies that sheltered the critters that walked on the platforms underneath. They were systemically chaotic and dome-like in the overall shape.

The openness of the building made it prone for native flora to sprawl over the wooden structure; but it was that deliberate spontaneity of nature that gave the wooden structure character and purpose. The pitter-patter of small critters zigzagging above and below those ramps could be heard at random intervals. They would sometimes lurk in between the plants and the pieces of wood, and at other times would rest out in the open areas of the structure.

And as such, leaves rustled and a small cottontail emerged from behind a bush. Twitching its nose, it stood still for a few seconds. Then its ears perked up. Suddenly, a fox emerged from behind, attempting to ambush the suspecting cottontail. An intense but quick chase ensued, but the cottontail was fortunate enough to slip in between the slats of the ramps where the fox could only partially reach its snout into. Such a chase was a common occurrence, but needless to say the cottontail was not always so lucky to escape into the tiny burrowed havens.

Past the semi-enclosed tunnels, a crossroad of trellises and undulating wooden canopies staggered behind one another, filling the immense space. The multitude of rows furthermore heightened that immenseness, eliminating the sense of the finite. Above, a flock of birds spiraled out of the boiler smokestack in an almost choreographed manner. The few birds that stayed behind perched on the wood that pierced through the walls of the smokestack.

They had found refuge in the irregular but organic enclaves of structure. The falcons would sit proudly on the more open edges of the scaffolding, while the pigeons would evade these predators by nesting in the smaller nooks closer to the smokestack walls where they could not be touched.

Emerging out of the building was a sloping bridge-like structure held up by an array of stilts. It channeled down towards a smaller, more modest tower near the neighboring river. When the evenings came, swarms of bats would pass in and out of the crevices of this bridge that had become their roost. During the day, however, weasels and snakes would sometimes use the stilts to their advantage to climb in and disturb the peace of the bats’ caves. And as the power station dipped towards the river, the ducks and the beavers took rest on the structure that emulated the rhythm of the water.

On the other side of the building a dense forest stood, contrasting the green field in which the building was approached from. In the midst of this man made structure, nature had reclaimed its space.

CREEK ZIPPER FALL 2016

05

Austin, TX | Fabrication + Assembly | OTA+ The Creek Zipper “is a series of interconnnected units that form zipper-like strands. Each unit varies depending on the width of the strand, creating a dynamic overall geometry that ebbs and flows much like the water level of the creek itself.” The installation was one of five projects featured for the 2016 Creek Show in Austin. Over the course of two months, I milled metal sheets using the CNC router and folded the cut panels into triangular modules. I also helped assemble and install the project that spanned almost 100’ feet down the creek.

Rollingwood, TX | Renders + Construction Documents | Urban Foundry Architecture A private residence for which I rendered this image for the construction site banner. The glass entry was central to the design of the house, highlighting the canopy that soars above. This house was one of several projects for which I digitally rendered images and worked on construction documents while interning at Urban Foundry Architecture.
