FOLDING BOUNDARIES

The main intention of this building is to create an inclusive and comfortable library space for the community of Huntsville, Arkansas. The project focuses on bridging the gap between the urban fabric of downtown square on the southern edge to the more natural and residential area further north of the site. The main building runs north to south with a continuous terrace extending off of the western facade. This condition creates an inner courtyard to connect the two fabrics, while the form of the building takes on a more simplified and reserved design.

COMPOUND PAVILION

COMPOUND PAVILION

This design emerged from the desire to accommodate existing urban conditions alongside current spacial needs. Rome’s built environment can be seen through the layers in which the city has been constructed. These urban conditions can be seen through this site’s underground ruins, which have been addressed by opening them up to the public. The building adjusts to history as well as current needs by introducing a multi-functional and transformable space. By including two entries, a co-working space, and gathering hall, this design allows for new function while respecting the past. Meant to be used in different ways, the open design allows for transformations while addressing the every changing needs of the surrounding context. The site’s changing topography is also included by the change in ground heights as one circulates towards the Tiber River. This change maximizes outdoor green space while allowing for continued use of the space.

RISING HOPE

RISING HOPE

This memorial, located in Campo de Provas Brazil, is situated on the proposed testing site for Brazil’s nuclear program; the memorial situates itself upon the border of the scarred testing field and the fringes of the lush amazon rainforest. This memorial aims to celebrate Brazil’s decision to end its nuclear program while recognizing the dark past and destruction brought about by the exploration of destructive weaponry. The brooding façade utilizes a rough concrete expression to reflect the rugged nature of explosive bunkers. As one enters the space, they are driven downwards into earth integrating themselves fully into the interior to elicit an uninviting dark and cold experience to reflect the fear and unease of the arms race era. However, a sunlit path acts as a beacon of hope guiding visitors leading through the single volume space. This light is our guiding principle reflecting the hopefulness of a world that has ended the proliferation of nuclear weaponry. As a visitor travels through the space the conditions of light change and grow ever brighter until an eventual release into the lush sculpture garden surrounded by the lushness of the amazon. This project aims to drive home the dichotomy of the path towards mutual destruction and a bright hopeful future.

While working alongside fellow emerging professionals, this project developed as a gateway for MCC Penn Valley (Metropolitan Community College). Creating a grander experience for students as they enter campus while emphasizing the use of outdoor space. This project focuses on creating a community spot for students to gather and learn while connecting and celebrating the different pathway into campus. The pavers and paint bring the design together while the vertical steel fins capture one’s eye and leads them through the gateway
