ICONOGRAPHIC PROGRESSION
WHITEAKER BRANCH LIBRARY -completed fall 2012-
Skinner Butte Park, the site of the branch library, is located within the eccentric Whiteaker district of Eugene, Oregon. Known for its abundance of fledgling local businesses and alternative art and music scene, the presence of community, creativity, and collaboration is very prominent. Initially considered the primary industrial sector of the city, the recent influx of young entrepreneurs has transformed “the Whit� into a newly commercial and residential district, resulting in a highly diverse population. The design intent of the branch library was to respond to the strong cultural presence of its context, which was pursued through an incorporation of arts education, performance and gallery space, community gathering space, and a strong connection to the surrounding physical environment to emphasize the sustainable initiatives of the Whiteaker district and the surrounding Eugene area.

PORTLAND CULINARY ACADEMY -completed spring 2013-
The central concept of the Portland Culinary Academy that dictated the orientation and organization of all program elements is that of an open theater space integrated into the main circulation of the building. Framing the atrium, each theater component places an emphasis on the importance of a transparent and collaborative education through a dynamic visual connection to the teaching kitchens and library. The same concept permeates through the building and out to the street, creating a facade that communicates these integral interactions to passerby so that they may understand the nature of the space and its role within the urban context of Portland, Oregon. The Academy’s intention is to offer an education not only of the culinary arts, but of the quality and quantity of local food systems to that it may become a social institution that is committed to educating not only students, but the greater Portland community on the importance of preserving and participating in the regional ecology of the Willamette Valley.

5th street While the urban structure diagram of our overall site envisioned main street at primary east west connection, 5th street was chosen as our vertical spine due to its location at the intersection of all districts. Anchored primarily in the north and south by the food and civic arts districts and by the central business and industrial districts from the east to west, these overlaps created excellent opportunities to support a range of activities, including a reinstating civic presence through the integration of a new proposed library and ground floor entrance to city hall, a farmers’ market to support the existing business incubator in the north and a medium scale grocery to support the heavy traffic on South a, a variety of supporting retail and gallery spaces throughout, and a proposed live-work space as a connection between the industrial and the arts districts that supports the growth of alternative housing.

christians brygge (christian IV brewery) This three week adaptive reuse project in copenhagen, denmark explored the methods of integrating a flexible exhibit space into a 400 year old brewery that was to be initially focused on the writings of Danish philosopher soren kierkegaard. While preservation was an inherent consideration, it was important that its presence did not limit creativity due to the time constraint of the design challenge. necessary site analysis and research were still formative components, but we were not focusing on accessibility and strict preservation as much as the necessary conceptual transitions that proved crucial to this particular exhibit. Driving design forces included the adjacent canal and harbor, represented within the exhibit through corresponding angles, fluid circulation patterns, and the dynamic nature of the materials.

TIMBERFRAME PAVILION the final phase of the progression is that of a great hall where most of the festivities take place polka dancing, alphorn blowing, swiss yodeling, and, of course, the consumption of copious amounts of bratwurst and beer. the heavy timber truss references the history and setting of the original oktoberfest and helps strengthen the county’s reputation as “oregon’s little switzerland”

these structures help frame the transition from the shore to the upper banks of wallowa lake while also providing support for the hop vines that contribute to the atmosphere and actual production of this late summer brew fest
this series of platforms arranged around cascading water features provides spots for prospect and refuge alike. each frames a view down to the town of joseph, oregon as well as up towards the greater wallowa range. they provide space for performances or group gatherings during the festival, but also serve as a great resting spot for visitors and hikers during the rest of the year
