THE HERMIT CRAB

Program: Makerspace, Art Studio, Communal Living

Location: Detroit MI

Year: Spring 2020

Course: Arch 311 - Situate - Ellen Donnelly

Located within the East Warren neighborhood of Detroit, MI, The Hermit Crab inhabits the shell of a building no longer there. By offering a makerspace, art studio, and communal living, the community of East Warren is presented with opportunities to collaborate, explore, and learn from each other to foster a network of makers, artists, and residents.

The design is driven by the idea that the building appears to be moving in tandem with the user. This is achieved through the use of malleable surfaces that morph to way suggest changes in motion and activity. The topography of the floors, walls, and ceilings are used to achieve this goal. The design asks occupants to explore the interior and exterior spaces within the shell. The skin of The Hermit Crab is scaled with metallic plates that display an iridescent reflection and aids in contouring the form. The spaces advocate for social encounters among peers and physical interactions with the building itself.

Exterior Render

(Image produced using a combination of Rhino 3D, Lumion, and Photoshop.)

The drawings shown explore horizontal and vertical qualities of experience to inform the organization of spaces. Such qualities include: intersection, voids, boundaries, circulation, light, and time spent in spaces. There were also various ideas of how surfaces would move and morph. These investigations laid the ground work and were taken as precedents for the design.

On the ground floor, users are provided with a lounging space as well as a small coffee shop. Occupants are presented with the option to follow the exterior stairs up to the second floor housing the art studio and communal living or follow the stairs down leading to the makerspace.

Floor

On the top floor, the art studio, gallery, and living room are filled with natural light that filters through the curved glass roof and truss frame structure. The lounge in the makerspace is emphasized with the natural light captured up by the glass roof. This allows for a change in scale and an experiential moment.

The skin of the facade takes the brick pattern of the shell and shears it to juxtapose it. Ceilings and walls work as one continuous moving surface. Ceilings define spaces and walls direct movement as well as becoming staircases, seating, and counters.

The architecture of this design is predicated on the maliable surfaces prompting users to engage with the building as a living entity both vertically and horizontally as much as with others in a multitude of instances. These X-rays illustrate the motion of The Hermit Crab in its entirety. Above: X-Ray Section Above: X-Ray Section Perspective

ATTIC CONVERSION

Collaborators:

Tim Murphy - Structural Engineer- Wilson & Company, Inc, Jose Ochoa - Contractor - J Builds LLC

Program: Master Bedroom, Bathroom, Closet

Location: Omaha, Nebraska

Year: Summer 2023 (In Progress)

Located in the Historic Benson neighborhood of Omaha, NE, this design focuses on modifying an existing element into a space that provides convenience.

There was an emphasis on effectively utilizing as much space as possible, this goal even extended as far as to taking advantage of the spacing between studs in the existing knee walls. In the end, project resulted in a Master Bedroom with a bathroom, two closets, and built-in drawers offering the client functionality and comfort.

Throughout the duration of the project, I acted as the architectural designer, consultant, and coordinator. Not only did I design the conversion but I also worked alongside the client to indentify what problems needed solving. I provided multiple iterations of possible outcomes. I collaborated with the Structural Engineer in ensuring the structural integrity of the project. Finally, I acted as the main point of contact for the contractor to direct any questions and additional information requests for the project.

This project provided challenging obstacles and a valuable learning experience. It was accomplished through the collaborative efforts of all parties involved.

An issue the client wished to address was the lack of space in their room which led them to use a spare room for clothing storage and their vanity. Though a solution to this obstacle could have been to extend the bedroom into their office, it was not ideal for the needs and comfort for the client.

The existing joists in the attic were 2x8’s @ 24” O.C. while the rafters were 2x4 ‘s @ 24” O.C. In order to make the bedroom structurally sound, all joists and rafters were sistered. However, it would not be enough, at which point the Structural Engineer joined to redesign a knee wall into a box beam.

BENSON MUSIC CENTER

Team: Jesus Perez-Cortez, Byron Ho

Program: Music Hall, Classroom, Market Space

Location: Omaha, NE

Year: Spring 2021

Course: Arch 411 - Integrage - Mark Heir, Ashley Byars

Benson Music Center is dedicated to the experience of music within the Benson Community. By taking the logistics of the affects concave and convex surfaces have on sound, this idea is expressed through materials and surfaces as much as exterior and interior relationships.

Within the Benson Music Center, music is experienced through performance, education, rehearsal, history, objects, and how surfaces affect sound. The main performance hall has windows allowing passerbys to witness ongoing activities and can open up to the public to become an outdoor performance space. By providing a market space and lesson rooms, local vendors and music teachers are encouraged to share their goods and services with the Benson population. The rotating exhibition space displays the music history present within Benson and the larger Omaha area.

JESUS PEREZ-CORTEZ

The architecture is veiled in a mesh facade extending the notion of convexity and concavity, providing enclosed and open spaces.

A key notion during the concept phase was how each street along the site could essentially act as a spectator for music in an audible and educational manner.

1. Three performance spaces are established. Each is oriented to its own side and has a different scale.

2. The three performance spaces are encased within one volume but remain seperate.

4. Conteracting the obscurity, the facade is lifted and punctured to provide visibility into the building while highlighting the activity occuring inside.

3. A seemingly weightless facade acts as a veil for the imposing structure. It encloses sound and program within its boundaries. The interior activity becomes obscured to the pubilic.

5. The exterior becomes an extension of the interior program, provide spaces for an outdoor performance and an out door market.

This experience of music is guided by the impacts that concavity and convexity have on acoustics. Wood paneling is arranged in convex shapes within performance halls so performers can gauge the quaility of their music. In other spaces, wood paneling is used in a concave manner to emphasize activity.

Concavity and convexity reflect sound differently. This affect on acoustics is translated to spatial and visual applications both on the interior and exterior.

Location: Midwest

Year: Winter 2023 (Completed)

As day to day life sees a continous need for up-to-date communication and connection services, rural areas of the United States look to become current. The team at HunTel Enginneering has dedicated years designing a solution for this goal.

My role in this large scale civil planning project came at the end by analyzing as-built maps for accuracy and translating the information contained in these documents into cloud-based maps. This meant taking physical maps and drafting all contents into an AutoCad file then inputting the same data into a cloud-based catalouge known as “StellaRad.”

In order to check for accuracy, I double-checked the contents of the maps by calculating every individual component and cross referencing with a databook and billing spreadsheet.

INTERPOSE

Team: Jesus Perez-Cortez, Sahr Qureishi, Madeline McGill

Year: Fall 2020

Course: Dsgn 410 - Collaborate - Salvador Lindquist

Interpose is a discovery of the inter and disconnected experiences found revolving around food insecurity within and around the realm of secondary education. It is an exploration of students and their daily itineraries and experiences. It is a conscious effort to bring hidden truths to visibility while highlighting a network of converging and diverging human experiences. It is a break from the rigidity of the school system and structure to articulate the notion of a network components and thresholds. The network and threshold are never fully stagnant but are in a state of being, where being is nothing more than the process of becoming.

Interpose is fluid to external parameters and users. The design provides a site with spaces, amenities, and fleets focusing on the pervasive issue of food insecurity allowing students access to healthy foods, social engagement, build cooking skills, transportation, awareness, and knowledge

Threshold: A threshold separates opportunity and understanding. It must be acknowledged to be broken.

Exhibition: Raises awareness to people who do not experience or are not aware of food insecurity.

Invitation: Breaks the threshold from those who experience food insecurity and those who do not.

Cultivation: Physically addresses food insecurity through greenhouses, gardens, kitchens, and food trucks.

Convergence: People and experiences meet and dynamically engage with one another on the site.

Cars: Mobile Exhibition

Semi-truck: Mobile Exhibition

The network converges on the site and diverges across the city through a series of programmatic fleets which serve as nodes of exhibition, invitation, and cultivation. There is a disparity of opportunity and understanding created by a threshold of those who experience food insecurity and those who do not.

Bottom Row: Fleets

The fleet are pollinators of the network. Blending into the vehicular landscape but also intruding on settings and situations in a way that draws attention to itself and its agencies. The fleets are divided into 5 categories, all serving a different purpose within the network. The categories vary in scale and in intervention.

The threshold canopy is the physical manifestation of the threshold and network. However, rather separating needs and users, it serves to connect the greenhouses and their programs. It formulates a visual and habitable connection on the site by way of social and physical fabric that is fluid and never stagnant.
