Green House by Discovery Center
Information Center I 2017
Arch 507 | Theories of Computer Technology Professor Karen Kansek
The green house is located in Mont-Trembant National Park in Canada. The objective of this project is to design a green house and study its conversation with the site through transforming it into a parameter model in Revit. Each unit on this green house facade is being controlled through two parameters: the first parameter controls the height of each panel and the second one controls the width of the aluminum structure.
1. Aluminum structure column width = 1” Panel Height = 1’ 2. Aluminum structure column width = 3” Panel Height = 3’ 3. Aluminum structure column width = 5” Panel Height = 5’

The objective is to design an efficient space for Timbuk 2’s employees who design and produce their in-house customized collections.Hexo provides a space that allows emplyees to interact and share ideas with one another through series of open and aggregated hexagonal wall units. The hexagonal surface serve not only as display shelves for their past design, but an extention of working surface and meeting space. Through this design, it creates a direct constant visual connection that faciliates through the space, which create a centeral hub that allows employees and visitors to flow dynamically within different spaces.

Inter 200 I Interior Design Studio Professor Catherine Veikos
The objective is to design an innovative office space for Sierra Club’s employees. The goal of this project is to create a multi-functional public and private space to attract visitors and partners to their office but maintain employee’s privacy. Due to the original floor heights is 20 feet high, the existing condition allows me to include a mezzanine at the center of the office. The mezzanine not only preserve the privacy of the working station but also becomes a platform for the visitors to working ethic and culture within the office
