The museum of abandoned infrastructure
Conceptual diagrams
Through several site analysis, I decided to incorporate three directions into my design; one from Decatur Street, and other two toward two important bridges. From the beginning of the studio, designing a bold entrance for my museum was very important to me. For that purpose, I decided to locate that entrance in front of Decatur street which would create a virtual tunnel that invites passersby into the museum. The location for entrance was one of the main challenges because some could argue that it blocks the view to the water. I did several iteration and finally was able to solve that through choice of material, facade and site design.

Beyond Survival Provisional Solution for Displacement Thesis
• THESIS STATEMENT AND ABSTRACT: The number of displaced people, victims, of natural disaster or war is increasing. The international disasters database (EM-DAT) show a rise in natural disasters each year from 1970. Natural disasters and war are becoming more common. Humanitarian agencies have provided temporary and emergency solutions for over 70 years. All the shelters and camps are new temporary cities which will appear in less than a day and disappear in not less than a year. Based on United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), 21.3 Million out of 65.3 million displaced people are refugees who spend an average of 17 years in camp. In that case, being a refugee is more than a temporary state.

Thinking of refugee camps as more than temporary centers will help create a healing place in which there is hope for future. In this thesis, I will redefine the concept of humanitarian architecture as a solution which is more than a charity; it is an opportunity that will provide hope and shape the future of humanity. A designed temporary city (camp) will create a social heart in which displaced people can find the memory of the home and sense of identity they left behind. For the purpose of creating a sense of identity and dignity, this design should be a flexible enough as a response to several disasters and locations with possibility of bringing their expression of their home. I have decided to design a adoptable refugee camp for a variety places with different climate/event conditions.
My Conceptual Model has three different layers, each represents one scale of a refugee camp. The top layer is a gridded layout as a symbol of a designed space. The middle layer is a map of Damascus, Capital of Syria. Yellow paints on the map emphasizes on public spaces which brings a community together. These spaces are missing from current refugee camps. There is white strip under it to draw more attention to this element of hope. The bottom layer is the most important one. A broken mirror to symbolize the lost identity. The model is installed in a way that a viewer will be able to look into the mirror and interact with it.

Split Level Ranch Energy Efficient House in Hamilton, MA
Pionarch,LLC Residential New House
Designing, Drafting, Rendering Designed to accommodate the idea of a simple floor plan of a split level ranch house to create a modern energy efficient building. The placement of exterior elements and windows links the exterior of the house to the interior and creates a flattering and dynamic facade. The metal roof structure provides the opportunity of creating open framing and a high wide roof with low maintenance with energy efficiency in mind. The roof gives a modern look to the building with a form language that wraps around the building and connects the two split elements visually.
