connection needed to be revised to accommodate an unforseen existing condition. To minimize costs, we worked with structural engineers to design a solution that used elements of the previous design that were already fabricated.

SOCIAL JUSTICE CENTER

Roanoke, VA | Fourth Year

Tasked to design a Social Justice Center to serve the Gilmer neighborhood in Roanoke, VA, the building is designed to fulfill a sense of familiarity in the community by embracing the neighborhood culture and the surrounding site of Roanoke. It is tradition in the Gilmer neighborhood to use the front porch of homes as a place to gather and socialize. In hopes of embodying this same feeling, the building offers its own form of a “front porch” on the corner of Fifth Street and Loudon Avenue.

The building can be broken down into three main parts: the columns, the curve, and the roof. These elements resulted in a fluid progression of varying height spaces bounded by an array of columns.

The facades materiality plays a key role in establishing programmatic differences within the building while paying homage to the site. The corrugated metal panels express the site’s industrial surroundings and conceal the private functions, while the transparent exterior displays the public atrium.

YOUTH ACTION CENTER

Montserrado, Liberia | Fourth Year in Collaboration with Zainab Hashmi, Ingrid Bandares, and Yuxin Ren

This Youth Action Center in the Montserrado neighborhood of Liberia focuses on movement and circulation through courtyards to embody a sense of community within the various programs. The proposal includes a school to accommodate students from early childhood to highschool, a reception hall, community clinic, rental office space, recording studio, tenant storefront and two residential units.

Spaces are connected by two central courtyards that lead to a ramp which filters students and visitors to their individual destinations while maintaining visibility and presence.

Given the tropical climate, the building takes advantage of passive cooling strategies, utilizing the southwest winds and its form to ensure air circulation throughout the site.

The steel truss roof rests atop a concrete frame and anchors the corrugated metal roof. The bamboo sheets attached underneath the frame of the truss protect the interior spaces from weather.

The drawing below speaks to the permeability of the brick wall and its connection to the outdoor circulation path that overlooks the central courtyard.

This elevation expresses the various roof planes that converse with the alternating building heights throughout the site.

The facade creates a repetition along the length of the building that satisfies a level of privacy, light and ventilation within the site.

THESIS INQUIRY

Distributed Healthcare | Fifth Year

This proposal seeks to rewrite how we interact with medical spaces on a smaller, more human scale with distributed structures across our landscapes that leverage innovative technologies to provide a higher level of convenience and accessibility. A new healthcare model called, HEALTHbox, will exist as adaptable, modular structures implemented into the fabric of our current environments through familiar materials and strategies. The program condenses a typical doctor or pharmacy visit, eliminating the need for a waiting room through the benefits of technology. Ultimately, shaping a new perspective on how we depend on the infrastructure that serves our health and well-being.

New Realities: Re-envisioning Everyday Architecture exhibit utilizing projection mapping to display how people would interact with the proposed HEALTHbox in different environments.
