03 SONG OF STACCATO
MUSEUM OF INSTRUMENT FOR LIULICHANG
Individual Project / RISD Adv. Studio 2021
Instructor: Spencer Hayden
The rotation created variations and a staccato effect, while also shaping a central, private courtyard. The use of brass on the facades of the narrow rooms gave the building the appearance of an instrument.
04 GLASS BRIDGES
AQUATIC CENTER DESIGN FOR RED HOOK
Individual Project / RISD Adv. Studio 2021
Instructor: Rachely Rotem
DESIGN STRATEGIES
The project is divided into two distinct courtyards.
The first, larger courtyard features swimming pools and is located across the main street from the community. These pools are more visible to the public and are designed for teenagers and adults, offering spaces for training.
The smaller courtyard, which contains scaled-down swimming pools, is enclosed by four public housing buildings. This space is more private and is intended for children and families.
Glass enclosures surround the swimming pools, allowing them to serve as sources of natural light for the courtyards below.
The pools are positioned as a bridge, supported by bearing walls. Their elevated design enables a wide range of activities beneath them, while providing sheltered spaces in the underground courtyard.
The landscape adapts to different functions, with challenging slopes for teenagers and gentler ramps for children and elderly residents.
1. The arrangement of the pools facilitates water circulation, creating an inclusive environment where users of all ages and health conditions can engage with the water through easy floating.
2. The use of pools of varying sizes and temperatures aims to attract a diverse group of residents from the complex and surrounding communities.
3. The landscape is reimagined to provide access to the pools, introduce new urban activities such as skateboarding, and create multifunctional spaces.
4. Concrete bearing walls are employed to support the elevated pools, enabling the use of these spaces for games, exhibitions, and art, while also supporting vertical circulation and interior spaces.
