Readers + Viewers, My design interest emphasizes respect for geometric forms, the uniformity of materials, natural light contrasts, and attention to architectural details. Through the projects presented in my portfolio, I seek to reconcile abstract thinking with pragmatism in architecture, enabling me not only to work in the realm of high-flying design imagination but also to work within the realm of functional reality. As such, I draw inspiration from historical precedents, historical events, and architectural precedents in order to create designs that will have a significant impact on the built environment. Apart from that, I also believe that architectural representation also plays an instrumental role in bridging the gap between architects and their viewers. It is always a joy to see drawings that describe a narrative, are unfamiliar, dark, and beautiful, but are equally succinct and compelling. I used a combination of digital, modeling, and drafting skills, as well as hand-drawing techniques and montage, to create drawings that explain the intent of my ideas. Thank you for taking the time to see my work. I hope you find my thoughts and approach to design enjoyable. My presentation demonstrates my fascination with architectural design, and I am excited to share it with you.

system required significant changes to the construction schedule and cost. The design the owner approved was a steel bar shelf and wine racks

with integrated LED lighting. The structure was made of steel tubes welded together to create a cube-shaped shelf with glass in between each tube, which would serve as wine storage. To meet the time and schedule expectation, Topos Architects stepped in to manage the construction, choosing a fabricator and their bids, and modify the design. My principle architect appointed me as the main point of contact through fabrication and installation.

SPATIAL + ARCHIPELAGO

[ SAN FRANCISCO ] - MAR-MAY , 2018 SPATIAL ARCHIPELAGO - In this project, we explore the formal operation of “subtraction.” Double negative spaces are generated by intersecting subtracted voids. Through the intersection of voids, a continuous spatial sequence is created, resulting in an elongated and stretched spatial experience. Following the subtraction of forms, the residual form becomes the positive figure of the design, defining and supporting elevated, subtracted spaces. DOUBLE NEGATIVE - The project began with an exploration of double-negatives. The purpose of this exercise is to explore the correlation between sharp-cutting objects and the creation of negative space and the concepts of solid and void, or negative through positive, or positive through negative. STAIRCASE - With this exercise, I expand on double-negative by incorporating stairs into the unique double-negative space, transforming conceptual spatial experience into habitable space.

PROJECT INFO: TINY HOUSE COMPETITION [ SAN RAMON ] - MAR-APRIL , 2021

TINY HOUSE + COMPETITION A short walk from my apartment, the Dougherty Hills Trail offers a view of scenic green hills and a curvy landscape. This inspired this work. The spring season brings picturesque images of a green landscape and walking paths. I spent most of my time during Covid-19 working at home, interacting with a few others only occasionally. Looking out the window in the daytime, I often imagine space or a house of my dreams. This is why the tiny house competition gave me the opportunity to express my fantasies. The goal of the building’s limited size was to integrate space articulation with the site and create a sense of expansion, and I believe the curves result in a seamless living environment.

Spatial Anaylsis Diagramatic The interior space is subdivided into a 4-quadrant. A radial flow manner dictates the design’s circulation. The 4-quadrant indicates the flow of the owner’s circulations throughout the seamless curling space wrapping from the entrance toward the bedroom and upward balcony. Eventually, this tiny house captures a woven spatial experience serving purposeful circulations and flexible FIRST FLOOR PLAN

activities. By devising a grid system based entirely on radial directions, I was able to establish order into these restricted areas and circulatory systems.The experience of living in such a small space does not necessarily mean cramping and discomfort. In essence, this project represents a series of circular circulation in a spiral manner, which provides the eye with a feeling of endless space, an extension of eyes’ delusion, and a sense of space.

[UN]FAMILIAR DETACHMENT

[ SAN FRANCISCO ] - MAR-MAY ,

The objective of this studio is to design a multipurpose food building. The building’s form was meant to emulate the city gap by dividing it into two simple volumetric forms. This building consists of separate entities that divide the program into greenhouses and public uses, as well as production and consumption. The outdoor alley connects the two entities and, as you move from one building to another, there is a sense of separation, yet also a sense of connection. ‘The City Gap Profile’ is the core concept of this project, in which these gaps can be transformed into a large corridor wrapping around two programmatic components. There are two separate programs, but they are linked by a building skirt and visual interaction.

WOVEN TOGETHER + TUBES

MARK ANDERSON - ARCH 100D [AFRICA] - MAR-APRIL 2018

<Woven Together> is a design proposal that challenges the preconception of peace pavilions. Most peace pavilion projects consist of large gathering areas that are well lit, allowing for communal contemplation. This project, however, recognizes privacy in the act of contemplation and reinforces that understanding with smaller vertical tubes where individuals can enter to experience the enclosure of the densely woven structure. Programs are executed in two simple concepts—24 pods that erect vertically for private contemplation and three horizontally oriented circulation tubes that weave through the vertical tubes.

SECTION 1 - An analysis section shows the two objects are submerged in the horizontal platform, subdividing the programs into two distinct spaces that are interconnected by a stairway. A public market is located in the belly of the building as a result of two objects being slightly raised above ground, which provides a continuous connection from the street, is open to the public, and minimizes the circulation interruption on cityscapes. The raised objects provide the opportunity for additional amenities such as a library, public kitchen, indoor farm, and research center.
