BIKERS’ PARADISE HOUSING PROJECT HOUSING STUDIO PROJECT CRITIC- JAMES GARRISON LOCATION- BAY RIDGE, BROOKLYN THIS 282-UNIT APARTMENT COMPLEX SITS ON A BEAUTIFUL 97,000 SF SITE ON THE PICTURESQUE EDGE OF BAY RIDGE OVERLOOKING THE VERRAZANO BRIDGE CONNECTING STATEN ISLAND AND SOUTH BROOKLYN. TO BLEND TOGETHER A REGULAR LARGE-SCALE HOUSING PROJECT AND A PIVOTAL TRANSIT JUNCTION, I PROPOSED AN ATHLETICALLYINCLINED SCHEME WHERE CYCLISTS CAN DIRECTLY CIRCULATE THROUGH THE RAMP SYSTEM TO GET TO THEIR UNIT ON CERTAIN FLOORS WHEREAS NON-CYCLIST RESIDENTS CAN ACCESS THEIR OWN RAMP SYSTEM WITHOUT BIKE INTERRUPTIONS. THE PROJECT ALSO CONNECTS THE BROOKLYN WATERFRONT GREENWAY WITH BAY RIDGE TO VITALIZE THE NEIGHBORHOODS’ MAJOR COMMERCIAL STREETS- 4TH AND 5TH AVES.

RED HOOK MARINE SCIENCES INSTITUTE VERTICAL STUDIO PROJECT CRITIC- HENRY SMITH-MILLER LOCATION- RED HOOK INSPIRED BY THE FLOOD PLANE DIAGRAMS, THIS PROJECT TRIES TO ADDRESS ISSUES OF FLOODING BY CELEBRATING WATER EVEN IN HARSH CONDITIONS THROUGH VISUAL FRAMING AND TOPOGRAPHIC MANIPULATIONS. ENVISIONING A NEW MODEL OF COLLECTIVE LIVING, LEARNING, AND WORKING IN A SUBURBAN SETTING, THIS PROJECT SEEKS TO PROVIDE A SOLUTION IN THE CONTEXT OF AN EDUCATIONAL AND RESEARCH INSTITUTION. THE SITE IS LOCATED ON THE WATERFRONT OF RED HOOK AND FORMS A VISUAL TRIANGLE WITH DOWNTOWN MANHATTAN AND GOVERNORâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S ISLAND. THE PROJECT HOUSES LABS, CLASSROOMS, AUDITORIUMS, DORMITORIES, AN AQUARIUM, AND OTHER MIXED-USE FACILITIES THAT APPROXIMATE 500,000 SF OF FLOOR AREA. IN ADDITION, THE BUILDING INTEGRATES WITH A PROPOSED INTEGRATED FLOOD PROTECTION SYSTEM (IFPS) THAT DEALS WITH THE RISING SEA LEVEL. HENCE, THE WHOLE BUILDING IS FLOOD PROOF AND RAISED UP 10-20 FEET AND JOINS A BERM ALONG THE WATER.

VENICE IMMERSIVE THEATER CAPSTONE STUDIO PROJECT TEAM MEMBERS - KEITH ALFARO, FREDERIC BELLALOUM CRITICS- STEPHANIE BAYARD, META BRUNZEMA, GABY BRAINARD, BOB KEARNS, SARRAH KHAN LOCATION- VENICE, ITALY VENICE IS WORLD-REKNOWNED FOR ITS MEANDERING STREETS, CANALS, AND EXPERIENCES. WANDERING THROUGH THE ALLEYWAYS, TAKING A GONDOLA, AND GETTING LOST IN ONE OF THE MOST FASCINATING CITIES IN THE WORLD ARE DEFINITELY NOT COMMON WAYS OF EXPLORING AN ORDINARY CITY. DERIVED FROM THE SAME NOTION OF PROVIDING AN IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE, THIS THEATER FACILITATES HIGHLY CONNECTED SPACES THAT ARE IDEAL FOR IMMERSIVE THEATER AUDIENCES AND PERFORMERS ALIKE. SUCH THEATER HAS BEEN PIONEERED BY THEN SHE FELL AND SLEEP NO MORE. ANOTHER MAIN ELEMENT OF THE PROJECT IS THE NOTION OF ARCADES OR COLONNADES THAT ARE NATIVE TO THE VENETIAN CITISCAPE. ON THE GROUND LEVEL, THIS VERNACULAR FEATURE IS EXEMPLIFIED BY THE MINIMAL-SURFACE-INSPIRED ENVELOP TOUCHING DOWN ON THE GROUND. THE SPECTATOR THEN ARE LIFTED UP BY A SELF-CHOSEN ROUTE THROUGH ANY OF THE GROUND ENTRANCES TO EXPERIENCE A PATH THAT IS UNIQUE TO EACH SPECTATOR. DEPENDING ON THE ACTIVITIES HAPPENING, PARTICIPANTS CAN EITHER HAVE FULL OR PARTIAL ACCESS TO THE BUILDING AND ARE FREE TO WANDER THROUGH THE SERIES OF THEATRICAL EXPERIENCES. THERE IS ONE 500-PERSON THERMALLY AND ACOUSTICALLY CONDITIONED AUDITORIUM/THEATER FOR CERTAIN TYPES OF EVENTS THAT MAY REQUIRE SUCH CONSTRAINTS.

ST JOSEPH’S COLLEGE STUDENT CENTER AND DOMRITORIES SUMMER INTERNSHIP FIRM- GARRISON ARCHITECTS LOCATION- LONG ISLAND ST JOSEPH’S COLLEGE COMMISSIONED GARRISON ARCHITECTS TO DESIGN NEW ADDITIONS TO THEIR LONG ISLAND CAMPUS, WHICH INCLUDE THREE DORMITORIES AND A STUDENT CENTER. DUE TO THE VERNACULAR BRICK FACADE OF EXISTING BUILDINGS, THE PROJECT FINDS A FINE BALANCE IN BLENDING THE NEW WITH OLD VERNACULAR - BRICK AND FIBER CEMENT PANELS ON THE FACADE. BEHIND THE FACADE, ALL THE BUILDINGS ARE MODULAR. I COLLABORATED WITH THE LEAD ARCHITECT AND OTHER INTERNS, INTERATED THROUGH SCHEMES FOR THE CLIENT, AND PRODUCED DRAWING SETS. I CONTRIBUTED TO THE SCHEMATIC DESIGN, INTERIOR & EXTERIOR RENDERINGS, SD DRAWING SETS, AND 3D MODELING FOR THIS PROJECT.

545 BROADWAY COHOUSING PROJECT SUMMER INTERNSHIP FIRM- GARRISON ARCHITECTS LOCATION- WILLIAMSBURG THIS PROJECT INVOLVES RENOVATING AND REDESIGNING AN OLD BANK ON THE CORNER OF BROADWAY AND LORIMER ST, DESIGNING A NEW MIXED-USE HIGH-RISE, AND INTEGRATING THE TWO PORTIONS.

GARRISON ARCHITECTS SPECIALIZES IN MODULAR DESIGN. IN ADDITION, THE CLIENTâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S CONCEPT WAS TO BUILD THE FIRST CO-HOUSING PROJECT IN NYC. THEREFORE, I LEARNED A GREAT DEAL ABOUT MICRO-UNITS, LARGE-SCALE MIXED-USE ORGANIZATION, AND MODULAR DESIGN. I CONTRIBUTED TO THE SCHEMATIC DESIGN, INTERIOR & EXTERIOR RENDERINGS, AND 3D MODELING FOR THIS PROJECT. I WORKED THROUGH ITERATIONS OF SCHEMES WITH LICENSED ARCHITECTS WHO COLLABORATED CLOSELY WITH THE DEVELOPER/CLIENT. THE PROJECT HAS EXPANDED ITS SITE SINCE I LEFT AND IS GOING THROUGH FURTHER DEVELOPMENTS AT THIS POINT.

SCHAEFER LANDING FERRY TERMINAL EXPERIMENTAL STUDIO PROJECT CRITIC- STEPHANIE BAYARD LOCATION- SOUTH WILLIAMSBURG THIS PROJECT IS INSPIRED FROM THE “BILLION OYSTER PROJECT,” AIMING TO INTEGRATE EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURES WITH RESTORATION AND EDUCATION PROJECTS TO HELP NYC PREPARE ITSELF MORE EFFICIENTLY AND SELF-SUSTAINABLY FOR FUTURE NATURAL DISASTERS. IT STARTED WITH FORM FINDING THROUGH FOLDING BRISTOL PAPER TO CREATE SINGLE UNITS AND THEN AGGREGATING TO BE SELF SUPPORTING. THE PROJECT IS A FERRY TERMINAL LOCATED IN SOUTH WILLIAMSBURG ALONG THE EAST RIVER AS PART OF THE EAST RIVER FERRY SYSTEM. DUE TO ITS PROJECT SITE, IT NATURALLY FACES THE ISSUES OF RISING SEA LEVELS, STORM PREVENTION, AND WATERFRONT PRESERVATION. ON TOP OF THAT, MUCH OF ITS VICINITY WAS DEVELOPED ON RECLAIMED LAND THAT IS MUCH LESS RESILIENT TO STORM SURGES.

THE FORM-FINDING EXERCISE INVOLVES FOLDING BRISTOLS TO EXPLORE RELATIONS BETWEEN STRUCTURAL PROPERTIES AND FORMAL QUALITIES. IN ADDITION, ONCE A “UNIT“ IS FORMED, AGGREGATION OF MULTIPLE UNITS NEED TO BE ACHIEVED WITHOUT HELP OF ANOTHER MEDIUM SUCH AS GLUE OR STAPLES.

RESILIENCY THE STRUCTURE TAKES FORM FROM THE PAPER FOLDING EXERCISES HYBRIDIZED WITH THE IDEA OF HOW OYSTERS GROW ON TOP OF ONE ANOTHER TO FORM CLUSTERS TO STRENGTHEN THEIR COLONY. “UNDERWATER RESILIENCY“ AIMS TO INTEGRATE EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURES WITH RESTORATION AND EDUCATION PROJECTS TO HELP NYC PREPARE ITSELF MORE EFFICIENTLY AND SELF-SUSTAINABLY FOR FUTURE NATURAL DISASTERS.

THE FERRY TERMINAL GROWS OUT OF THE WATER AND DISINTEGRATES THE EXISTING FERRY TERMINAL SITE INTO SMALLER FRAGMENTS LEAVING SPACE FOR OYSTERS TO GROW AND PEOPLE TO INTERACT WITH THEM. THE GROUND LEVEL REACHES OUT TO THE WATER FOR THE FERRIES TO DOCK WHILE WALKWAYS HUG THE MAIN STRUCTURE TO PROVIDE DIRECT ACCESS TO THE WATER. ON THE INTERIOR, A RAMP SLOPES DOWN TO TOUCH THE WATER FOR OYSTER WORKERS TO FARM. THEIR ACTIVITIES ARE OBSERVABLE FROM ITS VICINITY FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES. THE ASCENDING RAMP LEADS UP TO THE STORM SHELTER WHERE IT SERVES AS AN OYSTER BAR ON A NORMAL DAY.

PUTNAM TRIANGLE CANOPY ART INSTALLATION YEAR-LONG PROJECT CRITIC- MARK PARSONS TEAM- PRATTSIDE LOCATION- CLINTON HILL, BROOKLYN PUTNAM TRIANGLE CANOPY WAS DESIGNED AND BUILT BY THE ARCHITECTURE STUDENTS OF PRATTSIDE, A STUDENT ORGANIZATION AT THE NEIGHBORING PRATT INSTITUTE.

INSTALLATION IS A LIGHT FILTRATION CANOPY THAT WILL PROVIDE A RESTING AREA TO CREATE A SENSE OF COMMUNITY WITHOUT BLOCKING PEDESTRIAN CIRCULATION. PUTNAM TRIANGLE CANOPY IS A COLLABORATIVE PROJECT OF PRATT STUDENTS, FULTON AREA BUSINESS ALLIANCE AND PRATT CENTER FOR COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT SUPPORTED BY NYC DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION. IT WAS FINANCED BY THE TACONIC FELLOWSHIP GRANT, NEIGHBORHOOD PLAZA PARTNERSHIP IN COLLABORATION WITH IOBY CROWD FUNDING CAMPAIGN AND FAB ALLIANCE. THIS TEMPORARY STRUCTURE IS DESIGNED TO BE EASILY ADAPTED AND REUSED OR REPLICATED IN OTHER PLAZAS IN THE CITY.

PARAMETRIC COLUMN CNC COURSE PROJECT CRITIC- BRIAN RINGLEY TEAM MEMBER- JASON VAYANOS THIS PROJECT AIMS TO UTILIZE PARAMETRIC TOOLS - GRASSHOPPER AND RHINOCAM TO HELP DESIGN AND FABRICATE COMPOSITE MATERIALS OF DIFFERENT FEATURES. STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY AND AESTHETICS WERE GREATLY EXPLORED USING BOTH DIGITAL AND MANUAL METHODS TO FINALIZE THE DESIGN- RUBBER PROVIDES FLEXIBILITY AS THE INNERMOST LAYER; BALTIC BIRCH ACTS AS THE MAIN VERTICAL STRUCTURAL ELEMENT AS WELL AS SHOWING THE BEAUTIFULLY CARVED WOOD GRAINS; FINALLY, ACRYLIC CAPS THE BIRCH AT THE PEAKS AND DISAPPEARS IN THE VALLEYS.

MATERIAL ARTICULATION ROCAILLE MODERNIZED

THIS PARTICULAR ETCHING LIKE MANY OTHERS DISTORTS ANGLES OF OBJECTS TO MESS WITH VIEWERâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S PRECONCEIVED PERSPECTIVAL NOTIONS. THEREFORE, THE FINAL PIECE CAPTURES THE ESSENCE OF MANIPULATED ANGLES AND RE-INVENTS ITS TEXTURE AND MATERIALITY.

MATERIAL ARTICULATION CRITIC- FERDA KOLATAN THE OBJECTIVE OF THE SEMINAR IS TO ACQUIRE AND PRACTICE THE ART OF ARTICULATION THROUGH STUDYING PRECEDENTS OF MAINLY THE ROCOCCO PERIOD AND THREEDIMENSIONALIZING AN ROCOCCO ETCHING AND WITH ADDED PERSONAL ELEMENTS.

PLAUSIBLE FUTURE NYC STREETS REIMAGINED REPRESENTATION SPECULATIVE REALISM TEAMMATE - EGAN KOBAYASHI CRITIC- KUTAN AYATA WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS WHEN POPULATIONS KEEP GROWING IN THE CITY ? WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF STREETS ARE NO LONGER PUBLICLY OWNED AND UP FOR GRABS? HOW WOULD THE CITY REACT TO THIS EXPLOSION OF RESIDENTS

AND PRIVITIZATION OF STREETS? WE EXPLORE A SERIES OF POSSIBILITIES IN THIS NEAR-FUTURE SCENARIO SET IN NEW YORK CITY IN YEAR 2050. WE ARE INTERESTED IN A WORLD WITHOUT EITHER AN UTOPIAN OR DYSTOPIAN AGENDA. OUR NARRATIVE DEPICTS A YOUNG ARTIST WHO HAD LIVED IN NEW YORK CITY DURING CHILDHOOD AND RETURNED IN YEAR 2050 TO DOCUMENT THE STREETS OF NYC. THE ANGLE AND TONE OF THE IMAGES STAY CONSISTENT THROUGHOUT THE SERIES TO CONVEY OBJECTIVITY AND REALISM ALTHOUGH STYLISTICALLY THEY CAN BE ASSOCIATED WITH JEFF WALL AND BERN & HILLA BECHERâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S PIECES.
