02- UTA Bike Library
Proposal: The goal was to understand the process of construction and use a tiny house and transform it by reinventing it into a bike shop which would be exciting, secure, and inviting.
The original tiny house was located along S Davis Dr. in Arlington, Texas and was recreated as a bike shop across the campus along W. Mitchell St. and S. Pecan St. The project is ongoing but the process for the semester included: on site demolition, design rework, and final construction.

03- Design Analysis Boards
Site: The Historical Center of Mexico City
Professor: Pia Sarpaneva
School: University of Texas at Arlington
Project By : Andre Parnow
Proposal: Analyze the conceptual frameworks and outcome of the three study projects. Each project should be investigated both individually and as part of a larger group of three.
Matamoros Market:
The Cell The Square The Courtyard
The large, open market is occupied by many vendors who define this rectilinear courtyard. The cells are the positive space which contrast with the large negative space.
The square becomes the most open area. The plaza has no walls but is surrounded by mountainous buildings which occupy its surrounding proximity. The plaza becomes enclosed as if it were a “large
Inspiration
Hotel Condesa:
The colonial buildings although enclosed become very spacious. The courtyard is open to above and is full of life. The transition spaces become the streets and the walls are the buildings. The space starts to feel like a “small city”.
The hotel focuses around a central plaza with a form that represents the alignments within the surrounding city. The spatial sequences also symbolize the adjacent area.
