University: Illinois Institute of Technology
Location: Bridgeport, Chicago, Illinois
The coach house project was an introduction to residential buildings. Focusing on designing an ADU for Bridgeport, a southside neighborhood in Chicago we were tasked with creating a specific user who’s lifestyle would impact design choices during the project.
I had chosen to take on the challenge of creating a house for a socialite in the community. The concept to make such a small space socialable and comfortable I used technices to open up the interior rooms into exterior rooms. With the backyard being a communal garden to help supplement the demand for greenspace in an urban space.

A collage that takes peices of a singular block located in Bridgeport, Chicago. Breaking apart workers homes, two flates, and three flats that populate Normal Street and 33rd I was able to put together a bit of the culture that stoops, porches, and patios hold in Bridgeport and the community that it brings with it.

The Labri House is designed by Nguyen Khai Architects and Associates. It was taken on as a precedent study to help with the understanding of living in small spaces and how to make these spaces comforatable. The model was made out of acrylic and wood and helped materialize such a small square footage into something that was understandable.
