Architecture Design Portfolio

INTRODUCTION

Emerging as an architectural designer, my architecture education has established a strong foundation in community-focused design, architectural visualization, and detail-oriented technical development.

As a result, passionate interests and skills developed:

• Building envelope systems that enhance thermal comfort and energy efficiency

• Refined representation graphics to tell a story

• Iterative design processes that drive contextually responsive solutions

• Interdisciplinary collaboration, with a strong work ethic, clear communication skills, and a drive to serve both clients and communities

The resulting projects entail learning to create atmospheric experiences through thoughtful spatial thresholds, expressive structural elements, and project inclined graphic representations that elevate both human connection and environmental performance.

Once home to the Mira Lanza Soap Factory, this group’s Centro Marconi Polytechnic Campus turns a forgotten corner of the Marconi neighborhood into a cultural, educational, and communal core. Supporting the existing theater culture and activity on the site, this section of Centro Marconi campus introduces a food hall, vendor spaces, classrooms, offices, and pocket gathering spaces.

The proposed Engineered Living Material (ELM) is a dynamic, responsive dual-facade system tailored for urban cultivation centres. Its primary objective is to evaluate and further dynamically adapt in response to solar radiation and humidity levels to optimize internal environmental conditions. This is achieved through a bio-hybrid composite material that can grow, shrink, and deform in response to environmental stimuli.
