3-D Model: Rhino Render: V-ray for Rhino Post Production: Illustrator, Photoshop

SYNOPSIS The design of a 25,000 sqft. music school on Bunkerhill, in Downtown Los Angeles.

SPACE A defining feature to the music school is space. Because of the limited size of the program the form was molded to create space not compliant to the traditional four walls, a roof and a floor. The feeling of space, the familiar room, was achieved through the manipulation of architectural elements to enclosed what many would consider “outdoor� space but still felt as though it were an extension of the building.

SECTIONS

SYNOPSIS A semester long design of three different structures encompassed on one site; a bus stop, housing for the interim professors, and a film school.

RESEARCH An understanding of the site was the first crucial step to designing for such a unique site. The project is located in West Oakland, California next to the West Oakland BART station. A defining character to the Bay Area is it’s mass transit system. One being the BART (light rail transit), the other the bus system. Embracing these elements and acknowledging the benefits and setbacks was needed to begin the design process.

Sections, Plans, Elevations: 3-D Rhino Model Post-Production: Photoshop & Illustrator

PLANS

SYNOPSIS Design 5 housing units for the year long interim professors for the adjacent film school.

SHAPE To break the conventional mold of the square box, the use of the triangle created a dynamic division between public and private spaces in the housing.

LIGHT Light was a crucial element in the housing. The center cut through of the house was the main circulatory atrium space that connected the public and private areas of the house. Providing light to this area was crucial. The cone-like ends to the triangular cut-throughs provided necessary light to the major areas of the house: living room, dining room and master bedroom.

PLANS

SYNOPSIS Design a film school housing a lecture hall, library, lab spaces and a studio lot.

LIGHT The interlaced triangular shell plays with positive and negative space providing light into public spaces like the offices and labs, while reducing the intrusion of light into other spaces like the lecture hall and library. The cut-through in the building again allows natural light to enter the building. The main stairway also acts as a light well allowing natural light to penetrate the center of a building where many of the lounge areas are located for students to study and work.

SHAPE The concrete shell of the building harkens back to the earlier designs of the interim professor housing with interlaced triangular shapes. A similar cut-through in the building again provides the main stairway circulation for the entire building.

CONSTRUCTION Wooden Chair Cabinetry for Homeless Halfway House

SYNOPSIS

CONCEPT

Create a chair entirely out of wood.

Our team imagined a chair not Wood joints and connections allowed placed onto the site but was an only. element of the site. We utilized the tree, making the chair an extension of it; a branch that extends out onto the conrete planter.

SYNOPSIS

COLORS

Create hanging space and storage The hanging unit utilizes recycled The colors were chosen to match space for a homeless halfway house in printing tubes to both reduce cost and the colorful fences located in the Berkeley, CA create an unique aesthetic yard the children of the house play in.

SPACE Because of the cramped nature of the rooms we designed a narrow wall unit that would rest behind each bunk bed, giving each user their own personal storage space
