Hello, My name is Favour Adesina and I am a 4th Year student at the University of Waterloo, School of Architecture. I am a hardworking and forward thinking individual, whose passion for architecture is derived, from the admiration of ever present relationships between people, and the spaces in which they occupy.

Through my fascination and appreciation of different cultures and urban fabrics, I seek to attain valuable knowledge and experiences that will further mold my future endeavors in the field of design. I aim to equip myself with the necessary skills and apprehensions needed to make ground breaking contributions to the world of architecture. This portfolio will provide in depth insights into my projects, interests and pursuits in the field of architecture and design.

Reciprocity is a concept which speaks to how the world goes round, the give and take, push and pull of human and wildlife alike is essential to the development of not only the earth, but also the development of interpersonal relationships. Parkwell on McCaul explores the idea of reciprocity through water, a natural binding source that flows through the earth, often harmoniously and reciprocally. Tying together the systematic, creative and therapeutic components of water together, Parkwell on McCaul is a conflict resolution center that aims to use the symbolism, practicality and functionality of water, as a means to bring people together and foster healing.

WATER CYCLE IN RELATION TO DESIGN ELEMENTS

Bodies of water that cut across the floor plate and wrap into the garden inform how people move through the space; pumps follow this into the mechanical well in the garden, as water rains down into the basement at a controlled speed.

RAINWATER IS COLLECTED AT ROOFTOP, WATER IS TRANSPORTED DOWN TO PROCESSING UNIT IN BASEMENT THROUGH FORCE OF GRAVITY

Give and Take, push and Pull. As the Building’s system aims to recycle used water by giving back to the land, the act is reciprocal, the stairs create a reciprocal movement through the floors, pushing you out and drawing you back in as you wind up, the contrasting of heavy concrete and light glass alludes to elements that are opposite but give to each other- reciprocity.

GREY WATER FROM WATER FEATURES, HAND WASHING, BATHROOMS, IS PUMPED DOWN TO BASEMENT PROCESSING UNIT TO BE PURIFIED.

Bench serves as contemplative area, with the calming sounds of water running underneath, the building’s system is exposed for use of designing the space and telling a story with water - subtly

The Lagos School of Traditional dance is alive with rhythmic treads, throughout the day this annular expanse will store energy in its loins. This landing holds our beats within its walls and will forever respond to the push and shove of our feet, with the provision of something greater, something more whole. Through a covert investiture, void of public apprehension, we follow the currents of our footsteps, our sways, our twists and motions, and we domesticate these movements in the space that they formulated, ever dynamic, ever resplendent. This Ulterior is alive, and mobilization is utilized, in a capacity that echoes the power of our omnipresent divinities,who witness our ability to be untethered in the midst of a world set to harness our negatives; it matters that we are together, it matters that we do this together.

Studying the Natural Landscape in Relation to Design and Architecture Location: The Grand River, Cambridge, Ontario

Media: Rhino, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, Watercolo

Through my research of the Grand river, I discovered the rapid rates at which trout and aquatic plants were dying, I decided to create a series of floating wetlands that catered to the needs of the wildlife primarily, and then to the needs of humans secondarily. The main elements that trout need to survive are: cold waters, Insects and worms for food, non-acidic, neutral waters, and still, shallow waters that allow them move freely. By including walkable, interchangeable platforms and fishing decks, I explored ways in which humans could experience these spaces while keeping the needs of the river’s plants and animals in mind. Creating floating wetlands that could be unhooked and stored away during winter, after undergoing multiple configurations during the year, was my way of tackling the ever-present changes that occur in the landscape and weather.

04// Makoko: Aqua Terrain Vernacular Amphibious Typologies: In Relation to Flood Mitigation and the Environmental Advancement of West African Coastal Slums Location: Makoko, Lagos, Nigeria

Media: Rhino, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, Watercolour

Makoko is an informal settlement, situated in Lagos, one of west Africa’s largest cities. It is a groundless, coastal slum area that comprises of shacks built on stilts, and has been around for over 150 years.

Residents live in dilapidated conditions with no access to clean drinking water, electricity, and waste disposal; leading to severe environmental and health hazards to the residents and surrounding aquatic life. The growing effects of flooding and climate change, displace families and lives at large.

The aim of this project is to propose three amphibious typologies that will aid in the mitigation of flooding, and the common improvement of the quality of both aquatic and human life in Makoko, strengthening the economic and environmental independence of the community . This includes providing efficient waste disposal systems and increased access to clean water, through the introduction of sawyer filtration systems and composting toilets.

from hardwood that is driven deep into the waterbed for stability. The houses and market spaces proposed, float on 55 ach house, with vertical guidance posts that drive down into the seabed. This typology of house is constructed with local re lightweight materials that can easily float. The vertical guidance posts allow the structure to rise with flood levels, and idents have access to their own gardens for sustainable farming and surrounding water filtration. By proposing the use of e removal becomes easier to maintain. The houses are located around empty areas, so as to not disrupt the waterways.

The typologies are all modular: they can be repeated to provide enough spaces and housing for the people of Makoko, by using cheap materials and reducing the costs and time of production, more efficiency will be achieved. Each structure has hooks that connect it to the floating wetlands and platforms around.

l

These floating wetlands and platforms also adopt the same amphibious typology, with a wooden under-frame and buoyancy blocks attached, for flotation. The amphibious typology is fitted to the public structures, larger forms made with translucent PVC siding for the walls allow for social gathering, light permeation and multi-functional uses. Each house and public space is fitted with a composting toilet and sawyer filtration system. The composting toilet is a simple and inexpensive system that uses natural organic elements to filtrate smells and compost waste.

While the Sawyer filtration system relies on the force of gravity to filtrate dirty water.

WETLAND TYPOLOGIES: We decided to design a series of wetlands with certain plants that help control the PH level of water, filter and clean the water, while also fostering aquatic life and vegetation growth.

We figured this was an interesting way to deal with the issues of water sanitation, while also helping to strengthen the community through self sustenance by farming of these wetlands.

Further away from Makoko, is a terrain of circular ended wetlands designed to attract fish. Their circular shape helps to break waves and provide stiller conditions for fish to swim and thrive in, as well as plants that attract mosquitoes and insects that fish eat. Ideally, this would help strengthen the fishing industry in Makoko, as it is a main source of income for majority of Residents.

WHAT ARE WETLANDS? •

Plants act as filters for the water as well as provide food (by attracting species) for Trout and Tilapia.

•

Towards the end of their life cycle, the plants are released as bio matter for the river and absorb waste fluids.

•

Roots of plants help to filter and cleanse river while also attracting fish and evening out the PH of the water.

•

Wetlands also slow down the water flow, to allow for easier access to fish, as well as easier paths of travel.

•

Wetlands provide micro climates where Tilapia and other fish can access filtered sunlight, insects and algae which is what fish feed on.

•

The wetlands attract more fish, which eat the waste in the water, aiding in cleaning the water.

05// Residence IV Part 1 The Masterplan: In Collaboration with Madeline Lachance, Rebecca Zarins & Vanessa Sokic Location: York University Campus, Toronto, Ontario

Media: Rhino, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, V-ray

The outskirts of the GTA are designed for a commuter culture where all citizens must rely on vehicles to reach their jobs, homes and services in between. The way we acquire food today has been heavily shaped by this culture and grocery stores sit like islands, distant from residential areas, hereby inherently inaccessible to young people or all those who cannot own vehicles.

This masterplan was an attempt to address these problems by subverting the way in which we’ve been interacting with our food at a distance; by focusing on a program that provides students with on campus access to farmers markets and grocery stores , as well as ways in which they can grow their own food .

Using the scale of the kitchen, the market and the farm, this plan creates multiple levels of community within its ground plane blocks, the larger blocks for growing food together and the smaller ones for selling, cooking and dining. These levels of community are then extended upwards into the buildings of the project through the use of green cores and green roofs that each serve as smaller scale gathering spaces within each building. This connected program that sweeps the site, serves as a way to activate the community and eradicates the need for people and the produce itself to travel long distances in the name of a basic necessity.

This project is a further developed proposal for one of the residence blocks established through the previous master-plan. By proposing a plan which incorporates a ground based network of organic food programs, further fostered by a network of terraces, students will be provided with more than enough options for healthy eating. This proposed food based community is one that offers nearby, healthy, and sustainable food solutions through community gardening and teamwork. But why stop at just feeding the bodies of students?

Mental health issues are rampant in universities and taking a step to better this is crucial. This plan incorporates a spaces which foster the care for mental health and what we put into our bodies. Terraces that span across the building provide students with the opportunity to grow their own personal meals and plants while creating an environment where students can interact with and support each other. The terraces also bring in a lot of sunlight, a proven factor in improving mental health. With rooftop terraces dedicated to horticultural practices such as plant physiology and outdoor therapy, students are in an environment where mental and physical health are nurtured through community. The bridge that connects the two resident buildings is laterally braced with steel members and serves as a node of interaction between the two spaces.

Mixed Media Work A look into extra curricular works done throughout the years; I have explored various mediums such as acrylic paint, photography, collage and pen. My inspiration for art is often derived from my lived Canvas Hands//Photography experiences and encounters in the real world, Furthermore, with the use of colours, media, and techniques, I aim to physically represent these experiences and how they made me feel. Also included in this section, are professional works and extra curricular architectural projects that I have worked on.

The quiet of another entity, pulsing through space, fluctuating with time; an ambiguous presence bleeds through polar chambers. The “Observer”, engrossed by the sound of an unseen matter, unapologetically taps into the internal instruments of another. Waiting in lightlessness, pulsing flickers illuminate the darkness enveloping them.

Barren, plain and sterile, the “Subject” is confined by emptiness, chained to their own lonesomeness. Their exposed essence radiates in sound, a vulnerable state of being in slumbering vacancy, awaiting the guidance of a greater obscurity. Two correspondent personas, one cloaked in darkness and one washed in fluorescence, co-exist within the manifestation of one synonymous beat. They are a dynamic duo oscillating through time, where one seeks guidance and one exploits such void as entertainment.
