The focus centered around replicating the existing architecture and learning the components of construction documents. Our set of construction documents including schedules, specifications, and building code analysis to build upon the general forms of design representation. With the exception of the meeting room being remodeled into a cafe, the representation is a meticulous understudy of the existing. All documentation and renderings were produced ourselves. Collaboration: Jasmine Jones

Bonobos is an e-tailor retail store that is just coming into the market and establishing physical locations. The project parameters involved the creation of a traveling pop-up store that would characterize the mission and personality of the brand.
Display Case
Marketing Display Case
In the secular sense, a forum is a meeting ground where ideas can be exchanged in open dialogue. To design around this metaphysical principle, it was essential to create a relaxing environment conducive to free thinking.

Fine Feathers: Boutique
By taking cues from what has made Fine Feathers a destination for fine apparel, the concept is not to break from tradition but to recreate what is familiar to the ladies that require a full service boutique experience. These renderings are a sample of the aspirations that will make this boutique experience possible. This includes maintaining details such as crown molding, a monochromatic palette, and luxurious finishes. The space acts as a neutral backdrop to the fine apparel and each niche highlights a different experience. *Collaboration with Cassandra Bradfield

Community 1.0
City Center Shelter
The public shelter is a celebration of the history and energy of the City of Greensboro, taking inspiration from its rich heritage as the Gate City. The shelter conveys a sense of tranquility and dynamism. Repetitive elements provide visual stability and calmness while curvilinear booths and slanted roofs provide a sense of energy intrinsic in metropolitan life. There is a linear progression while nodes of activity are lateral, emulating the natural circulation within passenger trains. Each node acts as its own entity or booth with a private view out onto Center City park. This gives the viewer a sense of privacy and autonomy.

Individual Proposal for the Solar Decathlon 2011 Re-imagining the application of ‘the glass house’ with a sustainable methodology. All four facades are protected with a system of strategic vertical and horizontal louvers. The horizontal louvers dilineate the south and east elevations to break up the harsh rays in the morning and day while vertical louvers allow panoramic views but break up evening light.

Focus narrowed to a longitudinal structure with the defining element a moving canopy that harvests energy as well as provides natural shade and cooling. Our group dynamic focused partially on mechanics and current, readily available materials to use for the model as well as the full scale sectional mock up of the canopy.

Environmental degradation and depletion of natural resources are often observed in Bangladesh due to poverty, over-population and lack of awareness. Natural calamities like floods, cyclones and tidal-bores result in severe socio-economic and environmental damage. Waterborne diseases are a serious threat to public health in Bangladesh. Many of Bangladesh's people become sick from drinking polluted water drawn from surface rivers. Aid agencies built shallow wells throughout the country to help provide a safe source of drinking water to Bangladesh's poor. Our focus was to target ways of collecting grey water to filter and provide surrounding communities with clean, healthy water while storing it for future generations. The Jamuna Bridge was an ideal site because it is a direct line of communication and transportation between East and West Bangladesh, allowing the water source to travel by land from east to west and along the Jamuna River by boat from north to south. *Collaboration with Raul Garcia

Sensing Materiality: How The Environment Perceives Us.
Concept: “How does the environment perceive us?� Our position was not to embody the environment but rather simulate our positions within an environment that our actions control. Our response was an environment that remains dormant until our actions [walking under sensors] create responses [lights within Oculi]. As an extension of our concept, we sought to explore an application for the design. The solution explored the possibility of a flexible, lightweight material that would essentially hover over areas of pollution. As air pollutants were harvested by the oculi they would begin to create different intensities of illumination. Displaying a visual resonse to areas where polluted actions are taking place. *Collaboration: Abigal Buchanan, Alexis Garcia, Anuj Patel, Blakeni Delyn, Caitlyn Whisenant, Carlie Blake, Daniel Salgado, Heather Williams, John Jeppson, John Kennedy, Sharece Ramos, and Sunny Qui.
