Co-Living Cloister: Aggregated Units
Although the site is not directly downtown, in the next decade it will surely be one of the many centers of the emerging multicenter city that Mario Gandelsonas describes in X-Urbanism. The question then becomes how one responds to the emergence of this multicenter city.
In the spirit of the cloister, the strategy for this project was to have an intentional focus inward. In this aggregation the courtyard becomes a double-height patio/balcony with greenery enclosing it. The module’s aggregation allows for a giving back of ample public space within the building, with each odd floor given over to some kind of public program. There are floors for a gym, lounge areas, office spaces, and a gallery.

Research shows that loneliness is as lethal as smoking 15 cigarettes a day.
Sid takes his name from three intentions of the project: Shelter, Inquiry, and (self) Discovery, curating an intimate experience of vulnerability for the visitor, and offering a kind of reprieve; a welcoming place to sit, breathe, and ponder as one takes in the surrounding landscape.
The continuous route Sid allows offers a seamless transition between approach, interaction, and departure. He shifts focus from himself outward -- highlighting the experience of the landscape by shrinking into the periphery through his mild and yielding nature.
This project was shortlisted for Bee Breeder’s Iceland Volcano Lookout Point Competition.

Untitled Mixed Media Compositions
Current Explorations: Architecture and AI
This investigation revolves around examining the connection between AI models, where the designer acts as a filter of images and compositions, “architect-ing” the system used to generate form.
We begin by studying the masters, wherein images of great architecture are enhanced with outside compositions (incorporating certain motifs, in this case speculating about our future relationships to trees), and the limited understanding of AI image-generation is used to generate novel forms. The designer takes on the role of a moderator in this conversation between AI models in order to begin to define the burgeoning relationship between Architecture and AI.
