REFLECT TOWER
Oklahoma City, OK
Fall 2022 - Professor Andrew
Moddrell
The Reflect Tower is a mixed-use building located in Oklahoma City, OK. Reflect is west adjacent to Oklahoma City’s newest park, Scissortail Park. This mixeduse building offers both entertainment and residential programmatic elements. In collaboration with Eddy Tavio’s 608 studio, we were able to create a framework plan for the future of Oklahoma City. Within the plan there are districts that are categorized according to their location and surroundings. Within my district, we established the entertainment district to be along the east side of the district, and the residential along the west.
Reflect offers a two story bar along the east side with a rooftop lounge and a nightclub located on the second floor. The Reflect Tower on the west side of the site has a retail gallery and art studio space on the first and second floor. The third floor through the 21st floor is residential space including amenities for the residents such as community space, gym, outdoor patio, and other lounge areas throughout. The apartment complex offers more than 180 one or two person units with a full kitchen, bath, living space, and every unit has their own private balcony. The geometry of the reflected forms allows for full views of Oklahoma City along the perimeter of the building. The project offers a central community space with a sculpture garden to connect the residential districts to the entertainment and park area and to work on creating a community within the city from district to district.

FRAMEWORK SITE PLAN
This semester my 608 Urban Dwelling Studio, led by Professor Andrew Moddrell, collaborated with Prof. Eddy Tavio’s studio to create a plan for the future of Oklahoma City. A total of 32 students worked together to create a framework plan that addresses urban problems and solution of the city as well as to create opportunities to build a stronger community. The main goal is to connect the city which is currently being divided by a highway. The southern part of our site is very neglected. So the framework plan wants to enhance the opportunities and attractions on the north side and establish a connection between the two.
The site plan illustrates the framework proposal. Districts on the southern part of the site focused on creating interactive residential spaces with lots of trails and paths to interconnect the spaces such as affordable housing, townhomes, educational facilities, and markets/retail. The Northern part of the site offers higher density residential spaces with apartments, hotels, sports facilities, and smaller residential spaces like the south. The framework plan addresses pedestrian circulation paths as well as a complete streets module to ensure that the city accommodates all and is interconnected.

The Reflect Tower is part of the North Park District located along Scissortail Park. The project is the first building on the north side of the district, which is organized by high density to low – north being the highest.
The project acknowledges the opportunities of the site and its ability to connect the st and vice versa.

DE LOS SANTOS DISTILLERY
Kansas City, MO
Spring 2022 - Professor Todd Achelpohl
The De los Santos Distillery is a Hispanic inspired distillery located in Kansas City, MO. The long and narrow site deals with a topographic slant from north to south. This location is surrounded by entertainment spaces and is close to the heart of the city. The distillery has a diverse program, including: distillery operations, warehouse, event bar, retail bar, venue space, and office spaces for staff. The building illustrates and abstract and flowing form with open spaces and fenestration that offers dynamic views.

CONCEPT NARRATIVE
The narrative behind the abstract form of the building is my last name and my Hispanic heritage. My full name is Jimena Dorador de los Santos, it is customary in Mexico to take both your parent’s last names. De los Santos translates to – of the saints. Therefore, the main idea of the distillery is the shape of wings that are intersecting or rotating. This element can be seen in the shape of the floor plans. Additionally, I wanted to implement more of the Mexican culture into the design. The roof represents the flow and dance of the traditional Mexican dress, huipiles. Specifically, the dresses that are worn during traditional Mexican dances. The dresses move like waves and create a flowy and continuous pattern. The structural space frame of the roof allows for the continuous curves of the form. These two specific elements are interconnected to create a Hispanic inspired distillery located in Kansas City.
