01. MT WILSON SCIENTIST RETREAT

Los Angeles, CA

The design process began with a group-coordinated, extensive site research effort in the Mt. Wilson area. As a class, we examined various factors that would ultimately influence the designs of our proposed scientist retreats.

Site conditions such as weather, wind direction, sun path, site context and access, fire hazards, and others were all considered and discussed among the class. Carefully considering how these factors would affect my design, I began to construct a parti that would best respond to the surrounding context of the scientist retreat. This resulted in a primary concept of having two programmatic cores, each functioning as a private and public center, with the circulation snaking around these nexus points to capture specific site views. The program then wrapped around these two areas, with the living spaces oriented to face views of the San Gabriel Mountains and the working areas facing the Mt. Wilson Observatory and neighboring Chara Array.

After developing my conceptual parti, I moved on to organizing the program for my design proposal. The resulting layout separates the uses between two distinct buildings. As depicted in the site plan above, the living spaces are positioned in the northernmost section of the building, with the private core oriented toward views of the observatory and Chara Array, and the living rooms directed toward the mountain range. Meanwhile, the public core is aligned with views of the San Gabriel Mountain Range, while the working program is oriented toward the observatory.

After developing my conceptual parti and organizing the program, I transitioned to refining the project’s design massing, aiming to create two distinct structures that reflect their separate uses both structurally and aesthetically. The massing features two extruded forms that wrap around the design’s cores, using tangents to symbolically align with key landmarks and site views.

Structurally, the design comprises two buildings connected by a bridge, which also houses the elevator to ensure ADA access across all floors. Aesthetically, the exterior façade incorporates a curtain wall system with glass panels, distinguishing the living spaces in blue and the working spaces in green, as illustrated in the project fragment to the right. Alucobond paneling wraps the design, offering a clean, modern appearance that contrasts with the surrounding structures while harmonizing with the natural landscape of the site.

The project design began with a brief exercise. The class was instructed to capture an image of any landscape within close proximity to the campus that had an interesting composition. I chose to go to Mt. Baldy for this exercise. The picture of the mountains on the left page is the photo I selected.

After choosing the field condition, I generated a grid composition overlaid onto the image. For this, I highlighted specific parts of the image using different line weights and Photoshop filters to develop a concept for my project design. I then moved on to developing a second composition, from which the idea of gradually rotating floor plates per level emerged.

Finally, I developed a 3D model and resulting design draft for my overall project. I created large volumetric forms to represent highlighted spaces, rotating each floor to generate a nuanced experience throughout the project.

After visiting the site, I conducted a brief analysis of the surrounding context of the project grounds. I took note of specific landmarks and zoning characteristics of the site, which went on to influence the design of my project.

The result is a design that creates a unique experience for both students and teachers. The rotating floor plates offer a distinct user experience as individuals travel up each story. Specific modular pockets within the design include double-height spaces, providing students with grand leisure areas where they can study, congregate, and complete their work. The bottom floor features a scenic outdoor courtyard plaza, which includes an open café with seating areas accessible to the public. Wooden terraces within the building provide spaces with filtered light. The interior of the first floor contains fabrication labs that are readily available to architecture students.

03. LEIMERT PARK COMMUNITY ART CENTER

Los Angeles, CA

Leimert Park is a historic neighborhood in South Los Angeles, renowned for its rich African American cultural heritage and vibrant arts scene. Developed in the 1920s, it became a hub for Black arts, jazz, and activism. Landmarks such as the Vision Theatre and Leimert Park Plaza emphasize its cultural significance. While celebrated for its festivals and local businesses, the neighborhood faces challenges from gentrification. Efforts are underway to preserve its unique identity while fostering community growth.

For the development of the design, my class began with an individual exercise to help generate our concepts. The task was to construct a cube with three intersecting planes on each side. Then, I flipped a coin to determine whether to subtract or keep a section of the cube.

After constructing the cube, I selected a quadrant from it to serve as the basis for my project. I aimed to choose a quadrant with an intriguing composition. The result was a quadrant featuring two main atriums at the center of the structure, which eventually became the central idea of my design.

The final design resulted in a project organized around two main atriums, which feature distinctive concave and convex forms, as illustrated in the section below. The primary circulation pathway is centered within the main atrium, creating a focal point for an individual's movement through the space. To enhance the experience, alternate stairways were incorporated, offering a dynamic and varied user journey as one ascends through the different levels. Each story provides a unique perspective, enriching the sense of exploration and connection within the building. This thoughtful arrangement ensures both functionality and an engaging spatial experience for users.

Programmatically, the project is designed to feature public spaces on the lower levels, which gradually transition into more private spaces as one ascends through the art center. As illustrated in the exploded diagram to the left, the basement and ground floor house the most public areas. Moving to the second floor and above, there is an increasing presence of private spaces, including art exhibits and staff rooms.

The façade was designed to complement the history of the area. Leimert Park is deeply rooted in vibrant African American culture, and its history strongly resonated with me throughout the design process. With this in mind, I wanted the façade to reflect the colors of Black History Month as a tribute to the community and a statement against the gentrification challenges faced by the region.
