TAB brings a creative and tasteful new approach to DUMBO and its coffee scene.
Specializing in craft coffee drinks using only the best coffee beans from The Original Arbuckle Bros. Coffee Company, TAB is a renovation project where the old structure is preserved while spaces inside are redefined and optimized to give a better experience for guests. Buffered from the busy street by an indoor-outdoor vestibule, the three arches framing the facade draw people’s attention inside.

The concept of my project is the integration of architecture with its natural surroundings.
The design emphasizes a deep connection between indoor and outdoor environments, achieved through large windows, natural materials, and a focus on how buildings interact with the landscape. By stripping designs down to minimal forms and their essential elements, the architecture avoids competing with the natural surroundings, allowing the landscape to take center stage. The result is architecture that complements its context, fostering harmony between human-made structures and the natural world.

The Blunt Truth: A Presidential Library
Client: Grassroots Education Initiative Sector: Museum
Location:
1801 N Ocean Blvd Boca
Year Completed: Fall 2023
Scope: Architecture Scale: 30,000 sf
Influenced and centered around the topic of weed during the first Trump presidency, my design seeks to capture the complex narrative of this topic—where economic interests clashed with public policy, yet a vibrant and diverse community emerged. Through these buildings, I aim to celebrate the positives while acknowledging the shadows, fostering dialogue and understanding around this multifaceted issue. This presidential library is a unique institution featuring four distrinct buildings around a central courtyard. Two of these structures are boldly integrated into the waters edge, lending a picturesque waterfront setting helping to create a comprehensive and engaging platform for reflecting.

Year Completed: Spring 2023
Scope: Architecture
Scale: 30,000 sf
The “Just F***ing Chairs” museum is a non-profit organization created to promote sustainable design practices while bringing attention to notable and innovative designs. Of course, the designs are focused on chairs... a lot of chairs. We hope you will join us in exploring the art, ideas, and issues of time through the history and design of just... chairs. Exhibits explore the history and cultural context of each chair, as well as their tectonics and design features. Whether you’re a design aficionado or simply looking for a fascinating and educational experience, the JFC museum is sure to impress.
