Intrinsic Down Women’s Center Typology Location Studio Topic Professor Year Partner
Mixed-Use Supportive Housing Downtown Los Angeles, California Live Work Grow Andrew Goodwin Winter + Spring 2016 Rachel Robinson
Intrinsic is designed to encourage permanence and community for a population of women with a history of chronic homelessness. By empowering, connecting, and engaging the residents, Intrinsic hopes to create a place of belonging within Skid Row for both the residents and the larger community. Through varying scales of community spaces and green spaces, we aim to provide security, privacy, and independence for the women. The program is two fold: focus on the well being of the residents and incorporate program that addresses the fact that Los Angeles is a food desert. Our approach is to address these simultaneously, so that the growth and care of food products is both a point of pride for the residents as well as an aspect of the building’s fabric. The screen system provides a layer of privacy while also providing a place for the residents to express their individuality and grow produce or flowers to sell at the market on the ground floor.

Museums of Danish Resistance Typology Location Studio Topic Professor Year
Museum Copenhagen, Denmark Memory and Temporality Bo Christiansen Spring 2017
In this project, the way in which atmosphere is constructed and unfolded in a more complex program which must be both a contemporary exhibition space while also harboring memorialization of dramatic events from the past leads to a dramatic procession of experience. The study and use of light along with material considerations plays an important role in the creation of atmosphere in role in the creation of atmosphere in memorializing the past. For this project, my personal challenge was to design manually, producing everything through painting, drawing, and modeling, while focusing on the specific program spaces and the way light and movement can strengthen those experiences.

Museum of Weather Typology Location Studio Topic Professor Year
Instillation Art Museum New York City, NY, USA Atmospherics Claire Olsen Spring 2015
The goal of this project was to create a meeting point of various aspects of the city. The articulation of the facade is intended to welcome in pedestrians on the street level and twist towards the High Line on the upper level. Through wrapping various parts of the facade in a glass fiber reinforced paneling system, this offers points of extroversion for some galleries and introversion for others. Since the content of the museum is experiential and immersive, the design of the museum is meant to immerse the visitor in the weather based exhibits at some points and immerse the visitor in the greater context of the city and its own unique weather patterns at others.

Morro Bay Institute for Wind Typology Location Studio Topic Professor Year
Research Institute and Community Center Morro Bay, California Research and Communication Bryan Shields Fall 2015
Develop a research campus on the shore of Morro Bay and create a relationship to both the context and the content of a wind research institute. The emphasis of this project is the importance of the site and its influences on the human experience and the working environment. In Morro Bay, Morro Rock is an enormous presence on the shoreline. Approaching the city from both highways, the iconic “Three Stacks and a Rock� mark the horizon. Through the placement of the Institute on this site, the visibility of the rock is momentarily obscured for the pedestrian in order to refresh and reintroduce the ever present Morro. On the interior, various scales of research space and spontaneous interaction space intermingle and connect the individual to other individuals and the surrounding area. Included within the program are labs, offices, exhibition and event space, and a presentation hall for bringing the larger community in.

Huset: Community House Typology Location Studio Topic Professor Year
Community Center Copenhagen, Denmark Refuge and Community Rune Veille Fall 2016
This project is situated within a mixed neighborhood of housing, industrial shops, and educational facilities. The site also includes student and refugee transitional housing. With the introduction of a community cafĂŠ, meeting rooms, study spaces, a gym and a flexible assembly space, the community house posits itself to serve both the local residents and its neighbors. Huset offers a place of convergence for these three entities within the context of the urban landscape. Through the introduction of space for both interaction and personal reflection, Huset aims to enrich the greater community by setting the stage for the interaction, connection, and betterment of people from many walks of life.

STATEMENT OF INTENT:
Temporary Instillation Strøget, Copenhagen, Denmark Memory and Remembrance Bo Christiansen Spring 2017
The goal of this project is to create a space to dream in and dream into. By offering a space for visitors to reflect about where they are, , Focal Point provides a moment to notice aspects of the city in a new light.
Create a space to dream in and dream into. Offer space for visitors to reflect about where they are, and encourage curiousity as they re-enter the streetscape. Provide opportunities for individual and collective experience. Celebrate the texture of the city - sight, sound, light, peoplethrough temporary curated exhibits.
The procession of the visitor from street level, through a cloud of curtains separates them from the experience of the street and brings them to the second level where they can have a curated experience inspired by an aspect of the city itself. Focal Point offers a framework to support a celebration of the the texture of the city - sight, sound, light, people.
