Graduate Studio IV | Mari Michael Glassell
Current social disparities between race and income give rise to social intangible edges. The built environment in the formal and informal city is composed of physical tangible edges that amplify and tense these social disparities resulting in ethno-economic segregation. The most extreme tensions are identified at the nexus of the tangible and intangible edges. In identifying and negotiating these extreme tensions, tangible and intangible edges are negotiated by releasing the tensions therefore blurring them.
“This dichotomy between the hill and the asphalt has come to define Rio, and it is one that the city must address at all costs” Justin Mcguirk, Radical cities
If physical constructs generate tensions within the social tissues of the city, can the built environment serve as an agent to untie the social tensions and integrate the populous?

Graduate Studio III | Gary Smith Collaborators:
Architecture | Reid Stone ID | Winnie Drum, Haley Raymond LS | Michael Roberson, Adam Stovall This proposal was executed through collaborative efforts between architecture, interior design, and landscape architecture. Biophilia is achieved by employing nature in space - bringing people into contact with nature, natural analogues - ornamentation resulting from natural forms, and nature of the space- clear views of the expanses and range in open and tight spaces. Perch is a fitness center that serves the community of Dallas. Amenities include: spa and salon, physical therapy area, gym, restaurant and bar that extends to the rooftop garden.

Architecture | Sergio O. Piña Based on current site conditions, edges were the limiting access to the site. The proposal aims to generate access to the piazza by articulating edges. Bifurcation of edges was the strategy employed in order to generate new occupiable opportunities that will open the site and allow new points of access.

PIAZZA_BIANCA | pJ_03
Verona has a deep history that echoes through the city’s culture and ruins. The site is nestled between the Adige River (Fiume Adige) and a church. Programmatic elements include, bathhouse, pool, and a stepped area that responds to the temporal nature of the river.

VIOLET_BEBOP_HOUSE Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts, USA RESIDENCE
Graduate Studio II | Bennett Neiman, Darrick Wade The Violet Bebop Residence is inspired by the improvisational nature of jazz. This residence features a series of displaced volumes that overlook each other in order to provide the best views to its surroundings. FormZ digital model.
Improvisational assemblies were generated in order to investigate spatial possibilities. Order of operations included suspension of elements, shift in the direction of those elements, and a framing device.
Path
Spatial possibilities where observed through physical model iterations of the operations. Overlayed onto the iterations was the testing of place, path, and transition as programmatic generators. The occupant’s experience is made at the intersection between the physical and the programmatic components.

VIOLET_BEBOP_HOUSE | pJ_04
The lower level of the Violet Bebop Residence features a gallery space with a performance area for recital opportunities. The gallery leads onto the living expanses with access to outer terraces. A set of stairs leads the upper level that houses the outdoor pool, master suite, and guest room with outdoor access. A set of stairs turns the corner and leads to the studio level. This level contains a bedroom and an upstairs studio equipped for rehearsals and recording.

ARCHITECTURE OFFICE + GALLERY + GARDEN Graduate Studio I | Darrick Wade
Proposal for Pritzker Prize winning design firm that seeks to offer a place for Lubbockites while offering design services. Programmatic elements include: gallery, cafe, garden, and offices. A folding strategy is utilized to facilitate access into the gallery and cafe areas which serve the public. The program is folded upwards generating a tower that houses the firm’s offices. Folded floorplate edges articulate the enclosure that extends, providing shade to the garden below which features native plant life.

LUBBOCK_ARTS_ALLIANCE Lubbock, Texas, USA MAPPING
Professional Work | David Driskill This project seeks to identify potential sites for display of public art. The sites are to be located along Broadway Ave. and Ave. J nestled within the Lubbock Arts District. The purpose for the sites is to emphasize the arts district by providing a place for public art that would be rotated periodically. The mapping addressed the city at three scales, the city, neighborhood, and site. Factors in determining the potential sites include, physical and visual access, and proximity to public transportation stops. Sites were coded with potential intervention strategies such as “right of way”, “corner”, and “private property”.
