• PROGRESS - 2018 •
HELLO.
My interests lie in the integration of individuals, communities and environments on the building and city scale. I am fascinated with unique forms that are developed when sociological concepts are determined to be integral components of a project.
I have recently completed a Bachelors of Architectural Studies (BAS) at Carleton University with a concentration in Design. I am fond of close-up magic, billiards and darts, Mac n cheese, table tennis, and a late night Cuba Libre on the rocks.

Social Infrastructure & Architecture // Mumbai, India
Protect Belong | Merging Juxtoposed Demographics in Dense Urban Environments |
Term: ARCS 4107 // Winter 2018 // Year 4 Duration: 4 months Professor: Johan Voordouw Theme: De(construct) to Re(construct)
This competition asked participants to design a mixed dwelling development in one of the last undeveloped sections of Mumbai’s coastline. The goal was to cater both the indigenous fishing community that has occupied the site for hundreds of years - as well as the new demographic drawn to the affluent neighborhood that would soon encompass the site. This project identified architectural and planning solutions that supported integration between these socio-economically distinct communities.

The Peninsula:
Life in Worli Koliwada has evolved since the days of its settlers. Many of the original descendants con-
tinue to provide for their families by means of catching and selling fish, however, overfishing combined with shifting fish migration patterns has created some difficulties. The Fish Market remains, however the community has densified and grown to become a vibrant and inclusive settlement. Some of the original descendants altered their occupation, while others took advantage of a rapid increase of newcomers by renting out informal properties. Today, the community is filled with an amalgamation of skillsets, religions, and personalities, all while maintaining it’s captivating heritage.
Amenities Along the Peninsula
A main street on the peninsula has become a market filled with permanent and tran-
sistory stalls. The establishment of these stores create an insightful understanding of daily lives throughout the community. Remarkably, there are computer/phone booths that sell and fix electronics, while community toilets sit just next door, as not many families have access to a toilet in their homes. This main street has become a micro-cultural hub of the community, presenting all of it’s glory and limitations. Perhaps a means of development could arise from the extension of the street, allowing the process of expansion to take place in a manner that stays natural to the existing conditions.

Initially, this competition was named “DWELL”. To dwell means much more than to simply reside. To dwell means to belong to a given place; and places that have a sense of belonging must be protected. There is a difference between a house and a home. There is a difference between a district and a community. This proposal suggests using housing as the infrastructure to protect the indigenous Koliwada community. Connected foundations of shoreline buildings act as a protective barrier for the rising water levels while also providing the necessary infrastructure for a growing community - without damaging the existing urban fabric. Newcomer’s home’s and lifestyle contribute to the peninsula’s future protection and further integrate into a community lifestyle of interaction, participation and belonging. Going by previous NIO stduies, researchers considered a 3mm rise (annually) in sea levels along Mumbai’s coast. That, coupled with factors such as natural calamities and tidal changes, “will result in an approximate increase of 3m,” within the next 100 years. Mumbai has an average elevation above sea level of 14 metres with some coastal areas as low as 6m to 8m, as is the case with the Worli Koliwada peninsulas highest elevation at 8m. A major part of the south Mumbai coastline has been protected using measures such as
building walls and placing boulders, but these efforts are futile for long term conditions. Additionally, there have been little efforts in protecting the Worli Koliwada community of such disasters. In the next few centuries, the community is likely to be erased from physical exitance, not by human demolition and re-construction, but by rising sea levels. To protect this community is to be informed by inevitable change and cater towards progress. Mumbai has as density of 30,900 people per square kilometer. It is one of densest cities in the world, and continues to grow. As the density increases, so do issues of overcrowding, waste management, resources, and housing. Raising land value reflects potential profits for developers, and land tax collection for the city. This is one of the main reasons informal settlements/slums still exist, as the impoverished communities cannot afford luxury condos or apartments. However, these settlements are quickly being destroyed and replaced by more profitable developments. Families are forced to live in tiny apartments in the suburbs, that lack access to basic amenities, employment, and capability to self-support. This is a concern for the dwellers of Worli Koliwada. Still ever-growing, Mumbai is one of the most “connected” cities in the world. As seen on the edges of the Worli District, multi-
11
ple data centers store the information needed for both the old, and newest generations of the internet (both telephone and cable networks). The mobile networks also reach the entirety of Mumbai’s land. In a city that has a large inequality with water, sewage, electricity and other forms of large infrastructure connections, one may wonder why internet access should even warrant exploration. “Almost every Information and Communication research team has claimed that higher internet usage has resulted in greater economic development, higher democratic participation, enhanced education and healthcare systems and most importantly, an overall improved Quality of Life indicator”. The most valuable effect of internet access is the ability to better one’s current conditions, through increased knowledge. So why does Mumbai seem to be at such a standstill of progress? The issue that persists is not necessarily availability of the internet, but rather it’s accessibility. To gain a mobile connection, India’s users must pay up to 10x the price of those living in the nearby lands of China. Also, there seem to be pockets throughout the digital fabric of Mumbai, where only a mere 2G mobile network can be reached. As is the case with Worli Koliwada.

Proposed East berm along the Worli Koliwada Peninsula, an example of social infrastructure. Raised above the present sea level, the berm extends the physical survival of the community, while supplying the needs to provide additional space for boats to doc, fish drying, and relief of the main street congestion by means of a pedestrian pathway longitudinally throughout the community.

Housing in the Core // Lebreton Flats, Ottawa
Linking Lebreton | Reincarnation of Public Space; Social Services, Retail, Office and Residential |
Term: ARCS 4105 // Fall 2017 // Year 4 Duration: 3 months Professor: Benjamin Gianni Theme: Prototypical Urban Community
Linking Lebreton was an alteration of the award winning “Rendezvous Lebreton” master plan. This adapted design began with a line of sight discovery created by the newly allocated library location. This line of sight created a connection between the library and Ottawa Senator’s Arena, while cutting across the lively and centralized aqueduct. The new plan was derived from this idea of linkage between landmarks. This evolved into a centralized elongated park on the north half of the site, and a muse on the south end - both being straddled by highrises on each side.

LONGITUDINAL SECTION Master Plan Designing with existing elements, taking into consideration their effects on the site and looking at how they can become assets, rather than liability’s, became the most important strategy when devising this master plan. An undermaintained channel of water currently runs through LeBreton Flats. The water ended up becoming a connection point between two major city proposals: The Ottawa Senator’s new hockey rink, and a new community Library. Thus allowing this connecting stream of water to become a feature of the site ended up as the driving force of the master plan.

An aqueduct becomes a perfect axis for aligning commercial and mix-use developments adjacent, providing a community with both publicly and privately-owned open spaces/ gathering spots. Also, because of the direct connection from the soon-to-be LRT station, pedestrian only pathways further enhance the already animated commercial area. Because of the aqueduct’s central location on the site, density and heights lower when approaching the periphery, creating a relationship to the 1-2 story detached family homes across the street.

PROJECT PHASE 2 THEADZE HIGHRISE
Onto the Building Scale: The urban ideas based on the masterplan translated and materialized onto the building scale. Orientation and site strategy - taking into consideration surrounding links - were the key organizational elements to
drive the building’s massing/height and density. TheAdze highrise, located on the north end of Lebreton Flats, is a mixed use building comprised of commercial at grade, with hotels and condos above. Until re-
cently, it’s height of 52 storeys tall was unprecendented in Ottawa, however, the adjacent Claridge development proposal also includes a building comprised of 50+ storeys.
into the building. The opposite side of the high-rise is where the Condo’s lobby is located. It is placed adjacent to the four-storey commercial podium which also includes at-grade, street facing retail. The rest of the podium is surrounded by townhouses with private terraces that have access to the Hotel and Condo amenity space (Aqua-garden), which is also connected to a publicly accessible
restaurant and bar. The buildings exterior form is derived by placing priority on plan efficiency. Above the podium sits the hotel, where a layout of 1 and 2-bedroom suites are copied upwards 9 floors in sequence. The condo/apartment floors above the hotel use only 3 floorplate designs stacked on top of one another, setting back, and shrinking in size as they rise above into the sky.
Organization- Building Parti
TheAdze compiles multiple retail and housing typologies into a singular block among the Linking-Lebreton Masterplan. The building is one of the linking components of greenspace/park located on the west façade. This is where the Hotel lobby entrance, along with retail, is located - allowing for privately owned public spaces to merge into the park, while simultaneously creating a threshold

SOUTH EAST CORNER Residential Level 2/3
Although various housing typologies were studied and incorporated in the building block, the main focus of TheAdze was to design the majority of unit plans to be economical and efficient - best suiting middle-class individuals and families looking for tower living. Elevators have specific uses, separating hotel guests and residences from one another, yet the shafts are connected,
creating a structural core. The residential portion of the tower comprises of 237 residential units. After looking at current market trends, it became clear that the majority of tower-living residents are young and single. Therefore the breakdown of the unit types went as follow: Bachelor: 64 1 bed: 119 1 bed + den: 7 2 bed: 40 3 bed: 7
Pent-Houses on the 59 and 60th floors taking up the entire floor plate, allowing for cross ventilation and 360 degree views around the site

Chair Port[orb] | Inducing Instantaneous Sovereign; Digital Fabrication, Ergonomics and Portability |
Term: ARCC 3902 // Winter 2018 // Year 4 Duration: 4 months Instructors: Mark MacGuigan & Robert Wood Theme: Chair Prototyping
The Portable-Orbiting (Portorb) Chair began with a vision to create a dramatic experience juxtaposing the feeling of sovereignty next to that of respite. The goal was to create a piece of furniture that gave a perception of importance to its user, both in the way that the user felt, as well as how they were viewed when sitting in the chair. The chair’s enlarged scale became one of the principal factors in achieving this goal, however it created unforeseen obstacles in terms of portability (size and weight). Obtaining its reality in a functioning to-scale prototype involved technical detailing and computing precision.

Process and Procedure: The process began with CNC machinery to cut out individual pieces previously modelled from 3D and converted to a 2D file, allowing for slices of the form to be cut. Hollowing out each piece fostered a more manageable weight of the oversized piece of furniture. This presented an opportunity for storage, where hidden hinges could open various compartments. Intentionally designing an oversized form, meant it’s complete form could not fit through a standard door. However, panel mounting clips allowed the form to be assembled and disassembled for transportation.
Five polished steel cylindrical legs inserted into a solid base provided structural stability. As the base became independent to the top of the chair – a ball bearing plate connected the top and base element - making it possible for the chair to spin. 27

Community House The design of Community House originates from the assumption that we cannot dictate to a community what they want. As architects and non-residents we felt that we did not have the knowledge or contextual experience to improve upon the wealth of DIY solutions currently being created. Typical ‘architecture’ designed for the North are “usually based on satisfying southerner’s needs in a ‘hostile’ environment”(Zrulo, 94). This is readily apparent in the wealth of failed designs prevalent in northern communities. From the matchbox house to the suburban layout, most designs do not actually take the needs of the community into consideration, let alone to heart. Instead of attempting another one size fits all housing design, we chose to focus on the spaces in-between. The negative spaces carved by buildings exist as barren voids used only as transitions from place to place. Filling these spaces are the cast offs of artic life. Materials that currently have no purpose, but are filled with potential.

Community House is a shelter from both the natural, and the spiritual. As the wind is diverted to create a comfortable outdoor space, the form becomes a sounding board for the voice of the community. The structure is open ended in form and in use. From gathering place to story telling venue the circular shape bends to the needs of the people as they arise. The emphasis is providing an enriching community amenity that fosters ownership of place.

When communities have greater access to cheaper energy there are larger and more plentiful opportunities for economic growth and the subsequent rise in the standard of living.

Embodied Representation Contrasting Genesis // Kanata, ON.
Kanata Kindergarten | Relationship of Buiding and Landscape; Maniulating Scale, Site Organization, Juxtaposition |
Term: ARCS 3105 //Fall 2016 // Year 2 Duration: 3 months Instructors: Giancarlo Mangone Theme: Child Garten and Learning Centre
Located in Kanata, a suburb just west of Ottawa, a site surrounded by big box stores and family homes stands undeveloped. The site, perhaps somewhat undesirable to most, was overgrown, marshy and fostered naturally scattered trees – mostly along its perimeter. The proposed kindergarten responded to this environment while simultaneously comprising pre-established programs inside the building. A mountain-like landscape, formed using large square blocks (Voxels), acted as a climbable ascending play space covering schoolrooms below. A journey to the top reveal playful views into rooms below where fellow classmates seek visual interest in the activities above. 2017 Inspireli Awards - FINALIST

FRONT ENTRANCE VISUAL The Mountain The topography is relatively flat in Kanata. There are few places for kids to safely explore, climb, or even toboggan in the winter. The idea for the Kindergarten in Kanata is to provide a place for children of all ages to come play, like a neighborhood park, while simultaneously acting as a kindergarten during the school day. The mountain shape is not random but was created using the form of Mount-Logan (The tallest mountain in all of Canada), therefore metaphorically speaking – children climbing the steps of the Kindergarten’s roof are also climbing the tallest mountain in the nation. Rather than simply creating a sloped roof, the Mountain shape became voxelated to create ascending stepping blocks. These naturally created cubic pools of water spread throughout the mountain to help organic life thrive, especially after rainfall or periods of melting snow. During the winter months, when there are large amounts of snowfall, the voxels fill up. Large amounts of snow hide the cubic volumes, transforming the pixilated Mount-Logan back into its original (shrunk down and distorted) form – making for the best tobogganing hill in all the city. Like all mountains, undulations of elevations are sporadically located, at different scales. In the Kindergarten version of Mount-Logan, these seemingly randomized undulations are carved out to become special, atypical, play spaces. These undulations combine an integration with the Kindergarten’s mass as a whole - incorporating rock-climbing walls with ladders, platforms, nooks, cranny’s, viewports and more.

The Grand Room: Placed central to the Kindergarten is the main node of physical and visual movement. The large play space is covered in glazing from ground to ceiling, providing an everchanging mural of activity for visitors entering the building. Glazed surroundings extend beyond the concrete roof above, allowing visual connections from children within the building to the ones outside, while also, embracing the metaphorical imagery of a ‘crystal emerging from the rocks.
Vegetation: Grows uninterrupted on the concrete surfaced voxels to create a seamless transition from the prevailing landscape to the mountaintop. A large retention pond fuels plant growth along the structure’s base while also providing viewers with scenic and reflective sights to the west. This perception is repeated, on a smaller scale, with the collection of water in the undulation of stacked blocks above, allowing for micro retention ponds to encourage future plantation growth.

Giannone Petricone | Urban Culture; Provocative Spaces, Unconventional Forms/Material, Ranging Scales |
Term: Fall 2018 // Work Duration: 4 month internship Principles: Ralph Giannone, Pina Petricone Professional Experience Theme: Mergining Retail, Public Space and Landscape
Once a site for oil refinery, now a contaminated brownfield site along Mississauga’s waterfront. West Village – nicknamed ‘Imperial Oil’ – finally reached a point where the cost of soil remediation no longer superseded the revenue of it’s development. The Vision: To create a sustainable creative community on the waterfront. Priorities for the urban neighborhood consised of landscapes, learning, living, meeting places and drawing people to the water’s edge. * Note: I have assisted with or fully created all of the images shown.

Master Planning With a site measuring nearly 300,000 square meters, West Village Master Plan is a development that will not just affect it’s predicted 3000 homeowners and many businesses inside the neighborhood, but also the nearby existing communities. The plan has evolved to integrate with it’s surrounding context while continuing to provide connectivity throughout the site. The plan also emphasizes dynamic public spaces. These elements are specifically designed by focusing on four key themes: Road Network – Including municipal and condominium streets, pedestrian connections, and cycling connections. One of the main connections includes pedestrian Mews to decrease the vehicular traffic in the core townhouse blocks. Deployment of Height and Density – The proposal includes a range of housing typologies. They are oriented in a way that maintains compatibility with the existing low-rise forms of adjacent neighborhoods. The tallest buildings, located at the center of the site, which also include appropriate terracing toward the periphery, minimize shadows and density nearest to the existing adjacent homes. Parks and Open Spaces – Including 12 acres of parkland and 5 acres of Public Park accessible open spaces. These spaces act as green corridors connecting public spaces, as well as Lakeshore Road to the waterfront. Campus Design – The commercial and community-oriented hub at the south end of the site touching parks and boardwalks parallel to the water’s edge. It acts as a dual catalyst that connects Lakeshore Road and the water’s edge. This block incorporates the largest mix of uses that animate and activate the entire development.
