ABOUT

Why do I feel passionate about architecture? Well I like the feeling of designing news designs that everyone can enjoy, but also I view architecture as a form of language to solve an issue for our community, but we also have the power to do the same in a negative way.

I want to create a positive impact into a community regardless of anyone’s income, and transform how people live, experience, and commute to other places in which one can make it memorable.

/ASU GAMMAGE EXPANSION/ FALL 2023

Gammage Auditorium, located in Tempe, Arizona, is a spectacular architectural masterpiece designed by the architect Frank Lloyd Wright. Enhancing the most striking circular design, resembling a grand, spiraling amphitheater. A landmark in the city of Tempe. We as a group include the following members: Nihan Multu , Kush Patel, and Alexia Gonzalez. Were given a task to renovate the backstage of Gammage where there were problems that daily affected the way the staff performed their job, and the way they had to unload and load all the show load. Having a circular ramp was of no use as many trucks would crash into the walls and be unable to unload. Along with : a column that blocks the only lower entrance, no restroom, conference room, green room, storage, no offices, and a to create a New Front door to the Gammage in order to create this connection with ASU campus.

/O.A.S.I.S. CENTER/ SPRING 2023

We stand for Outreach and support for individualized Health Services. Providing Service Campus that provides transitional housing to those experiencing homelessness as well as providing potential health services to those in need. Campus is located right off the 303 Highway in Peoria, AZ. Creating a community center that provides services to both those on site as well as the neighboring communities. The idea is to partner with major medical companies and schools, to offer a location to train the new generation of doctors and counselors, the campus is funded by neighboring communities’ use of services, school funding, and company’s allocations and donations.

Our transitional housing allows one to receive help while facing a difficult time such as being homeless. Our Buildings are made for families and singles. Any singles must be 18 years old or older. Our main age group are our seniors due to our services being offered in our campus for both local residents and non-residents.

/MOVEMENTS OF ART THEATER / FALL 2022

The Movement of art is located in the city of Phoenix, on central Ave and McDowell. Concept of the design was based on the local artists located in the valley, but not just for theater audiences. We want more people coming to the Phoenix Theatre Company from all ages. Well that’s by creating weekly, or monthly events such as mega fine arts performances in which many people can come to visit.

Rosie is a Music Academy that we will share our space with.

Creating a space for young kids to learn about fine arts. Local family events, and for more of a community, but most importantly supporting local artists for the future. In the space we can see a theater being shared a performance base, meaning that we will create a community of fine arts for people to come and enjoy.

/ APACHE UNDERGROUND LIBRARY /SPRING 2022

Since this location was surrounded by housing and other commercial building no taller than 10’. I did not want to create something that disconnected the community, but blend within the community around. What I did is that I constructed an underground library that not also helped to control the noise from the freeway, but also provided a balance of a nice architectural design within a housing community in order to give them a community experience, and also an experience for both vistors and locals.
