Western Water CPP Architecture Fall 2023 Fourth Year Topic Studio Instructor: Mitchell DeJarnett Rhino 7 | Adobe CC

Western water is intended to serve as a place of political discussion and negotiation; there is particular emphasis on the importance of water rights to the Colorado River. Entities such as California, Nevada, Arizona, and the Native Nations heavily rely on said water. Located in Downtown Los Angeles, the performative landscape and program pieces reflect the ways in which the public may interact with such political spaces and are intended to spark discussion. The building reflects the tension of a body of water through phases of transparency and obscurity in vision. The moments of obscurity intend to create a sense of curiosity for these otherworldly aspects. The theme is continuously followed through the project to relay the impact and importance of water.

The grid applied to the building is sized by 20’x20’x20’ modules. It is also applied onto the facade, which wraps around the programmatic volumes and obscures it.


Within the plan, the direct circulation path is obscured both physically and visually with a play of solid and translucent walls. When applied to the program pieces, it allows for the public to observe the discussions taking place. The resulting unprogrammed space is then turned into waiting rooms, break areas, or open work spaces.

As the facade moves towards the north, it unfolds itself onto the landscape. The grid of the facade informs the separation of spaces within the performative landscape. That being the desert and grassland biomes, or even the water infrustructure programs. The unfolded structure also acts as a trellis for plants to grow onto.


As a response to the urban fabric of downtown LA, the southern side of the facade is solid and opaque. It responds to the streetscape and provides a blurred view of the interior. The north side of the facade changes physical properties, becoming more open and translucent. The building reveals itself to the public on the parkside. The chunk model of the facade system exhibits the daylighting strategy of the different states of the building.


Museum of Japanese Contemporary Art CPP Architecture Fall 2021 Second Year Design Studio Instructor: Jeehye Kim Rhino 7 | Adobe CC

Located in the Little Tokyo Historic District of Downtown LA, this museum features artwork by Chiharu Shiota and Yoshitomo Nara. The building is an urban infill project, having existing buildings at its adjacent sides. As an exploration of space and voids; oblique volumes are placed throughout the envelope and drive the directionality of the museum experience. Moments of compression force a fixed perspective until it is broken with a collision. Moments of expansion provide relief, via visual or physical changes. This pattern is repeated throughout the museum to provide various viewpoints throughout the building. To encourage exploration, the sculptural artwork is placed at central locations relative to the viewpoints. This is to provide different perspectives to observe the artwork.


The oblique was chosen as it either compresses or expands, depending on the intended direction. These volumes are arranged within the boundary box of the site, creating both positive and negative spaces. The inclusion of envelope redefines what some obliques are defined as. The more experiential obliques are used for the exhibits and assembly spaces within the museum, while the simple obliques are dedicated for the offices and storage.

Scientists’ Retreat CPP Architecture Fall 2022 Third Year Design Studio Instructor: Marc Schulitz Rhino 7 | Adobe CC

As one enters the peaks of Mount Wilson, visitors are met with steep terrain and various clearings. This retreat seeks to lure visitors through to the framed view of the treeline. The project does so with its main circulation ramp going through the rectangular structure. The building exhibits features of a tower, bridge, and cantilever in order for it’s form to frame the landscape. These features allow for the separation of program pieces with each level. The building explores the use of modularity with the structural system, guard rail system, and building assembly. An assembly that envelopes the outer boundaries of the building, but is recessed on the inner boundaries.


private public service


The building is accessed along the north road where it splits and surrounds the site. To the south of the site is a clearing within the woods where the treeline is visible. Using the precedent exercises, the project would be a combination of a tower, bridge, and cantilever. Diagonal bracing is applied to the core modules, the rigidity of said modules allows for neighboring modules to be unbraced. Program is separated into three levels: service at the bottom, public at the middle, and private at the top. This separation is emphasized with the entry sequences of the project. Visitors first enter from the experiential ramp and view the landscape through a frame. As they walk through to the view deck an unobscured view of the forest is revealed. Additional entryways are provided for the resident scientists, they are found on either the higher or lower road.

Entry onto the site is found on the northern part of the road. As the road continues south, it diverges and changes in elevation according to the site topography. Each road leads to a clearing where the ridgelines of the mountains can be seen. Access to the viewing deck is found near the north road. Guests will access a separate platform before moving through the experiential ramp. As they walk through, they can peer through the curtain walls and observe the scientists working in either the office or laboratory. Once past the frame of a building, an unobscured view of the woods is seen to the south.

The continuity of modularity is found not only within the structural modules, but also within the building assembly throughout the project. The exterior aluminum panels come in a 4’x3’ size and a 4’x1’6” size. The former representing the occupiable spaces within the building and the latter alluding to the location of floor plates. Modular panel sizes allow for the implementation of windows of corresponding sizes. The chunk displays how the building envelope is offset from the structural system on the outer boundary while being inset on the inner boundary. The bridge assembly follows the same concept. The guard rail is comprised of a structural system similar to the building and an exterior panel system located on the outer boundaries of the bridge.

Santa Ana Housing CPP Architecture Spring 2023 Third Year Design Studio Instructor: Giovanni Fruttaldo Revit | Rhino 7 | Adobe CC

As part of a greater masterplan for the city of Santa Ana, this project redevelops part of the industrial sector into residential housing. The building incorporates Type V over Type I construction, optimized for commercial use on the ground floor and residential units to be stacked above. The density of the project acts as a response to the housing crisis in LA. The Santa Ana Housing project adopts a courtyard scheme and designates space for its residents and the public. Analysis of the urban fabric has inormed decisions on the civic program, building density, and entry sequences of the building. Decisions made in collaboration with Zayomi De La Barreda can be seen along the pedestrian promenade. Prior to the development of the project, housing units were designed with modularity and flexibility in mind. Stacking of said units, along with their footprints, allowed the building to embrace verticality along its facade.


The site of the project consists of two neigboring lots and a shared pedestrian promenade. The program pieces of the ground level was designed in collaboration with Zayomi De La Barreda. As we had similar schemes with our own building designs, we sought to make connections between the anchor points of each site. Connecting access to each courtyard as well as the parking areas. Along the promenade and southern side of the site was the placement of commercial spaces to activate the pedestrian promenade. Designed to be gathering hubs, the northern courtyards would have physical and programmatic connections. Informed by site analysis, the live/work units are placed along the north site to provide closer access to the train station. The use of a learning center and a day care acted as complementary civic program pieces. Within each courtyard is a public park that is connected by pavement patterns. Unit placement gradually increases from south to north, acting as a buffer between the residential neighborhoods and the city.

The development of the housing units started with a 25’x30’ foot print and a sub grid that followed a 2’, 3’ pattern. Within the unit there is a separation between served and service spaces. Giving residents different levels of comfort within the unit. Portions of the top and bottom of the footprint is recessed inward, providing more corner conditions for the unit. When needed, an additional 10’x30’ module is added to the footprint.

As the corners of each unit is pushed inward this creates an opportunity for more daylighting to enter. The placement of windows and doors in these areas also allows for passive cooling. 1A

ISSUE

The placement of program creates two types of courtyards in plan. Within the ground plan the courtyard is dedicated to the public. It acts as a public park that also serves the live/work units and learning center. Walkways allow for a direct connection from the promenade, through the courtyard, and to the neighboring residences.

NOTES

Date Drawn by

Within the podium plan the courtyard is instead dedicated to the residents. It naturally becomes private as it is elevated off the ground floor. This courtyard is comprised of a gathering space, community garden, and a laundry room reserved for residents.

In the latter half of the semester, the design of the project continued alongisde the creation of a design development (DD) set. This set shows a comprehensive understanding of code analysis, building assembly and framing, MEP design, as well as showcasing the complete body of work regarding the project.

The building inherently embraces verticality through the facade. As units are placed and stacked, the creation of vertical voids is seen. These voids are emphasized when the facade material changes from a gray standing seam metal panel to a green fiber cement board finish. The pattern of both follow the vertical direction. The design of the windows continues this expression, however they are more playful as variation is allowed. This is done by simply flipping them on every other floor. Along the facade is a massive opening that reveals the public courtyard. The resdiential courtyard is made private by being elevated and hidden by housing units. Concealing the commercial parking lot underneath.
