The projected completion date for the sandLot is September 1st, 2014.

The project contains 3 units of varying size and layout to accomodate a fluxuating market of tourists, travellers, local recreation and extended stay.

Due to the sites location, review by the Coastal Commission was required. Working closely with the local bodies and understanding the aim of the Coastal Commission, the project was successfully moved through all permiting processes in record time. Understanding the severe strain that structures impose on the local landscape and global resources, the owner requested a design that met and exceeded LEED standards. The project is currently in consideration as a LEED Gold project.
Re
The project was constrained by many local and state wide regulations. The sandLot is centrally located within protected landscapes; State Parks to the North and Oceano Dunes Park to the South. Many design considerations were derived from the site and its context. To respect the boardering State Park and its ESHA protected species of native plants, large setbacks were incorporated to maximize the area of permeable surfaces and lighten the footprint consumed by the architecture. The permeable surfaces allow the native plant life to bleed through the site, below grade as existing systems and above grade as planted native sea grass.
< 1/4 mile from the site
re
The sandLot has remained undeveloped for the existence of its designation as lots 23 and 24 by the county of San Luis Obispo. The sandLot was the name given to this undeveloped site for its natural scape and relationship to the dunes. Once aquired, the owner sought schematic design for vacation rentals as this is a desirable development in the local market.

We traveled to Marfa, TX for an extended stay to gain an understanding of its dynamic culture and vast landscapes. Marfa’s current state of being is a blend of generational families derived from an evolved freight headquarters and a an evergrowing art scene. spawned from the residence of minimalist artist, Donald Judd. The juxtaposition of these two cultures has become a rich blend of local heritage and a fluctuating population of creative outsiders. The project directive was to develop a drive-in movie theatre informed by MOS’ current proposal. A tower developed to absorb the influx of traveling persons and reduce their footprint by elevating them from the ground. Festivels and times of travel have been known to double the size of the towns population. The architecture rehabilitates the surrounding sports field and rodeo ring by extending out with accomadating structures and supportive screens. The base of the tower serves as a temporary vehicular repository for travellers and film spectators. The screen has been placed on a shallow incline in the distant field as to redirect the viewers gaze back down to the horizon and create studium style seating. The dilapitaed state of the surrounding sports arenas and solar orientation provided guidence in the generation of the towers fenestration. The spherical volumes are a continuing study of non-orthogonal spaces and how the formations stem from human interaction and the break down of habitual tenedencies.

The creation of this applet provided a tool in which I was able to rethink the typical residential unit through the active manipulation of design parameters and constraints.

This thesis questions the role of designers in the future and how we might begin to rethink the approach to design of habitable spaces in an environment of emerging complexities. To meet the demands of the public for the creation of cus-tomizable space, the designer must seek out alternative methods of process which have the potential of yielding dy-namic results. The mass-customization of habitable space must be directly influenced by user input and it is the role of the designer to develop a platform in which the general public can intuitively generate personalized space.

We took a very organic approach to solving the problem of the house. We chose an animal, specifically a wild animal, that we then would use to guide the design of our houses. I chose a Leopard and specifically a Melanistic Leopard. The project began with examining the animal and learning everything that we could, such as its structural system, organs, habitat, and daily life. Once we fully understood the animal, we then moved forward and began to take our understanding of the animals characteristics to start developing a house. By taking this approach, it ensured that the final product would be tied closely to our individual animal.

My overall concept for this project was derived from the animal itself and its habitual functions. The program stems from the cats daily activities. The Leopard spends some time on the ground hunting but most of its time is spent in the trees, elevated away from the ground. This idea of being elevated off the ground is the driving force behind my program concept and design. Once the program design was established, I looked to the animals physical structure as a means of constructing my house. The overall structure of the house is based exclusively on the bone structure of the animal. Unnecessary structural elements were omitted while the necessary were prominently designed.
