Captivating Culture
A Center for Truth, Witnessing, and Justice at the Live Oak Plantation 2021 August - December
The Live Oak Plantation found in Louisiana is home to centuries of history. However, this land has been defined by itʼs dark past with slavery. This project offered an opportunity to show how architecture can be used to heal the physical land and the people that have history tied back to the land, while being a space that can also be used to inform any person that visits of the whole history of the site. By creating a cultural arts center that aims at filling voids in the historical communicates, the land that was once used to oppress people suddenly becomes a place of liberation that helps the Tunica Biloxi and African American communities reinvigorate their dying arts of basket weaving and indigo dying.

Fire Station 9
Integrated Building Design Fire Station 2021 January - May
This project located in Arlington, VA aims at creating a space for firefighters a comfortable place to stay during their work. This job has very drastic highs and lows and the building that firefighter have to inhabit have to be able to allow for moments of relaxation and then quick transitions to moments of emergency. During this studio, my team was focused on both designing and then developing a project that could respond to the several needs of a fire station.

9th Street Coffee
A Green Oasis in the City
2018 May - June By using the existing site as inspiration to create a new layer into the fabric of Washington D.C. This coffee shop was designed with the intention of giving people a place of rest while enjoying their coffee. The vertical gardens that infill the existing alley way create private spaces for people while also filtering out some of the noise of this bustling city.

602 Rome Studio
Architecture Museum of Rome
Inspired by History, Designed for the Future 2022 January - April Taking place in Rome, this semester I have been tasked with creating a museum located on the Tiber river. This site has layers of history, hustling people everywhere, and a deep rooted connection between the natural world and the urban context that surrounds the Tiber. The site is often a connecting point to many of Romeʼs architectural tourist attractions. I knew that the design of this bridge building had to represent all of these aspects. Thus I started by studying the existing ruin of Ponte Rotto. The arch that remains, I find to be a perfect exhibition of one of Romeʼs most famous architectural element, the Roman arch. The exhibits that are found in this museum are ones that provide detailed information about the famous buildings that can be found all over Rome and provide its visitors with directions to these sites, and know what to look at when they are visiting.

A Renewal of Life
Hosteria Pehoe
2023 January - May
Redesigning the Hostel Pehoe in Torres del Paine National Park. Located at the edge of Pehoe Lake, this one-of-a-kind site offers breathtaking views of the natural beauty of Patagonia. However, the existing hostel is old and falling apart, not offering the comfort and hospitality that visitors to the National park desire. This project aims to create a new hostel that not only provides a place to stay but also rejuvenates visitors after their challenging treks through the park. The design process was informed by studying the axis of the site and its surroundings, as well as the contours of the land and the movement of the infamous Patagonian winds. With this project, I hope to provide a space for Hospitality in an inhospitable part of the world and contribute to the sustainable development of tourism in Chile.
