Full Portfolio

My path has been quite different than that of the traditional designer, and it has made my experience all the richer. I was born and raised in El Salvador, where I started my architecture career before moving to the United States. In 2011, I took a long break to become a top international competitor in Fencing, representing my country at the Pan-American Games and missing my place in the Olympics by one spot. Afterwards, I resumed my architecture studies and graduated with honors at the California College of the Arts in San Francisco. NYC-SLV

I led a group of ten to design and build a canopy structure in the center of the town that serves as an open-air library and public space, where visitors can contribute and loan books on an honor system. While working a full-time job in New York, I labored tirelessly on nights and weekends with local architects, elected officials, consultants, and suppliers on a limited budget to realize the project. We had to be clever in using computational tools in combination with local materials and fabricators to achieve a compelling design. Using a single component, our team analyzed the structural performance when aggregating the module prior its assembly with SAP 2000.

The books come from different parts of the world, making it a place for exchange and ongoing distribution of printed information. Books can be borrowed with the uncertainty of being returned to its original place. "The library does not have a defined entrance nor exit" and becomes a public closet that sits behind a police station or "recinto" and a gated kindergarten.

The Polymorph Pavilion “Polymorph Pavilion was originally intended to be a completed freestanding structure, a six-legged composite shell designed to function as a shelter for casting projects. The team’s inability to complete the piece before the opening actually benefits the exhibition. The full-size components on display depict the work in various stages of completion: discrete, robotically cut foam blocks held within a frame, blocks pinned and glued into a solid panel, and a finished panel with a red polyurea coating. The heuristic nature of the installation is further emphasized by the presence of stray foam blocks that have migrated out of the first panel—thus inviting viewers to participate in the hands-on process of panel assembly.” Blaine Brownell, architectmagazine.com

THE POLYMORPH PAVILION

Site Rendering

Studio Mission This advanced architectural design studio focused on the integration of form, performance, and fabrication within the context of a design/build project. Students worked collectively to research, develop, and fabricate a small experimental structure for CCA’s Backlot Casting Area. The resulting pavilion provides a sheltered space for casting concrete and plaster and serves as an icon for CCA by representing the institution’s strength in Digital Craft. Studio Structure

The Team

As a design/build studio, the studio was structured so that students had to work collaboratively throughout the term on a range of topic areas essential to the success of the collective project. As needed at different phases of the project, students formed small research and development teams within which each member of the team was responsible for specific tasks. In addition, students presented to each other and taught each other the skills necessary to work on labor-intensive tasks such as the manual and robotic foam cutting. A shared framework for how form, performance, and fabrication might be integrated was develoepd early in the term through a series of workshops focusing on parametric modeling, structural analysis, and robotics.

Structural Analysis

From funicular shell to monocoque shell Base on previous research of different shell structural types, the refined shell mesh in its purest form exhibits traits of a funicular shell, where arched legs with distinctive axial behavior transfer load towards their base. However the upper geometry of the shell exhibits non-funicular property as the behavior becomes more flexural.

Karamba is fully embedded in the parametric design environment of Grasshopper, a plug-in for the 3d modeling tool Rhinoceros. This makes it easy to combine parameterized geometric models, finite element calculations and optimization algorithms.

Funicular Shell

Most funicular shell are done with masonry work, where each component carries greater structural load compare to the almost non-structural EPS foam blocks of this project. To mitigate that, a hard coating that encase the foam blocks is needed, which ressembles a monocoque structure, where loads are supported through external skin.

Elevation

Solar Analysis The entirety of the shell geometry is exposed to sunlight throughout the day, Structural Analysis with Karamba Karamba is a parametric structural engineering tool which allowing shading but also sufficient daylight under the shell for casting. Inforprovides accurate analysis of spatial trusses, frames and mal resting area can be formed by shadow casted by the external form. shells.

Analysing the shell By defining the properties of the materials used in this project (i.e. EPS foam, polyurea coating) such as weight, psi, deformation, then connecting to the mesh of the shell surface, a range of structural simulation can be preformed and tested to find the most optimal structural solution. Force of displacement, principle stresses and utilization are the key performance indicators in this case. The structure was tested under its own gravity load as well as a point load of 200lbs to evaluate the form and thickness needed for the shell to be structurally viable.

Coating Analysis Polyurea is an organic polymer that is the reaction of isocyanate with an amine terminated polyether resin, forming a plastic-like or rubber-like compound that may be used as hard coat protective shell over expanded polystyrene(EPS) for art projects and prop sets to protect the surface against abrasion, corrosion, while increase structural strength.

Conclusions

1/8”

• No structural issue detected when the structure is under its own self weight (gravity load). • Under a 200 lb point load the structure does not work as foam alone. It needs to be strengthened by a stiff coating. • The thickness towards the base can still be 6”, it is less of concerns since the behavior transforms to more axial.

Studio session at Digital Craft Lab

• The interior surface of the structure is the surface that transfers the load of the entire structure towards the base, not the exterior. Hence a thicker layer of polyurea coating should be applied to strengthen the structure. • The thickness of foam should be 6” minimum at the top where the shell behavior becomes more flexural, taken into account the material property of hard polyurea coating.

Foam Lifecycle A shared framework for how form, performance, and fabrication might be integrated was developed early in the term through a series of workshops focusing on parametric modeling, structural analysis, and robotics.

Scrap that would be recycled is donated to CCA.

Krysler uses EPS foam for molds for large fiberglass structures.

Raw Petroleum is transformed in polystyrene & molded into EPS foam blocks.

Offcuts were transported from Kreyslers and Associates to CCA’s Digital Craft Lab where blocks were milled using analog and digital tools.

Refined Petroleum from offshore oil dredging.

Upcycling Upcycling is the inverse of recycling, which is the other half of the recycling process. Recycling involves converting materials and products into new materials of lesser quality. Most recycling involves converting or extracting useful materials from a product and creating a different product or material. This in turn produces are large amount of Carbon back into the Atmosphere. By upcycling the foam, it is keeping the foam in its original state thus reducing is carbon footprint.

Emergent Constellations Buoyant Ecologies Maldives Professors: Margaret Ikeda, Evan Jones Architectural Ecologies Lab at California College of the Arts Team: Eric Fura (M-Arch) Joaquin Tobar Martinez (B-Arch) Emergent Constellations proposed a structural responsive system that could negotiate with extreme weather scenarios. The Breakaway Mangrove and floating docks are integrated with dampers and switches designed to fail in case of disasters. Rather than isolating the project to an exclusive zone or providing housing with a regular typology, we saw and imagined the existing island as a resilient organism to be connected and made adaptable within a new infrastructure. This engagement to the island of Dhangethi is at once ecology, geology, habitation, food, energy, water and survival.

Floating Docks

Urban strategy: extend existing island of Dhangethi

This floating urban community plan is designed for a tropical environment and an island way of living with naturally ventilated housing modules that are adaptable. The layout allows the integration of residents, visitors and researchers along the circulation path and maintains flexibility to encourage self-organization along the dock. The community has direct access to the ocean and adjacent coral reefs. Hydroponic rails offer fresh produce year round and the sea provides healthy options harvested using local techniques. The design provides for the long-term viability of the community both culturally and economically by utilizing sustainable technologies for energy and food production.

Brooklyn Public Library’s Events Credits: Bureau V + SCAPE Location: Brooklyn, NY Status: Ongoing

Bureau V has trusted me to take the lead with the organization of cultural events for one of the main clients, the Brooklyn Public Library. As part of a series of temporary events -- BPL Presents -- my contribution on this project consiste in the layout design for a wide range of public talks and performances at the main lobby. The procedure included drafting, preparing documentation and close communication with the client, as well as the logistics required for DOB filing and approval.

/ INSTALLATIONS]

Museum of Mundanities Project Credits: Ephrata Deneke, Shailee Shah, and Rachael Hammond.

We propose to install a series of temporary exhibits at the Inner Sunset in San Francisco by using domestic objects donated from community members. The objects are carefully selected, and studied, so they attract the visitor's attention as they walk around the invisible crystal box. At first it seems rigid, but as visitors approach they perceive objects can be seen closer--even touched. There is an intrinsic association to the inmediate domestic environment around the objects, while our team has the experience of removing the object’s functionality by placing it on display and merging them with other surfaces. The Museum of Mundanities uses museum tropes to highlight everyday domestic objects, displacing them into the public realm to create conversation and activate interstitial spaces. The final project for Researching Research consisted in small interventions at the Inner Sunset in San Francisco. We’ve developed a series of projects in collaboration with Build Public as part of our investigations on public space and tool for community engagement.

Tamanique Bus Station

The mix of activities transformed a reclaimed bus station built during the civil war (1979-1992) into a more dynamic public space. The proposed elements for the informal vendor are placed under the same roof, transforming the station into a de facto public forum. This project took place in Tamanique, a small beach town in La Libertad, El Salvador.

[ACADEMIC WORK]

HO-Tech BOOM+BUST cycles are in the very DNA of capitalism and are experienced all over the world in varying degrees and for a wide range of reasons. However, these cycles create highly unsustainable and unstable built contexts that raise complicated and intriguing challenges for architecture as unpredictable futures lie in wait. We tested our work with likely future scenarios: radical switch in uses, evolution over time, and significant additions. We investigated the architectonic, programmatic, spatial and aesthetic opportunities of flexible, adjustable, open-ended and/or explicitly unfinished buildings. Our explorations include the implications of these ideas and strategies on program allocation, spatial ordering, form, tectonics, systems, and material and technical choices. Finally, the projects that emerge from this research seek to be beautiful, spatially rich, materially responsible, and exciting actors in their contexts.

New York Mountain The main driver for this project is the maximization of outdoor space defined by the Mountain. This project seeks to explore and develop a landscape that merges the programs: rooms, a restaurant, and a playful component. This project takes place within an urban context by The High Line in New York. A hybrid program of rooms within shifted rectangular bars creates a void for the biergarten beneath. Open spaces for public interaction, that play with natural light, mounds and vegetation are the key elements in this project. The yuxtaposed surface creates spatial conditions that contrast and blend with the shifted bar edges. The sloped surface creates a fluid path between the High Line and the Mountain. This landscape serves as the main facade for the building.

Room for Rent In the midst of the San Francisco housing crisis, this project was designed to combine and engage collective living strategies with urban amenities in the heart of South of Market. By combining housing for students with performance spaces at the ground level, the project becomes an urban activator. A very dynamic envelope wraps the building's mass, creating a contrast with the historic and strong presence of masonry in SOMA.

CCA Library - Design Charrette We worked in teams to explore and propose a new space for CCA Community. As part of Studio Gang's vision for CCA Unified Campus, our team speculated on programmatic opportunities to explore a range of schemes for CCA’s future library. The vibrant, semi-open, and thickened envelope allowed us to rethink the library as a Community Connector.

Redefinition

Our team’s goal was to allow open circulation connecting public spaces to stacks levels while mantaining privacy for reading areas using the envelope as an active plane that reorients view, sound, and degrees of semi-private chambers.

Opening to streetscape allowed us to rethink the Urban Campus strategy, becoming a hub for the dynamic neighborhood of Potrero Hill and South of Market.

SPLICE Assemblage This proposal for a Fire Station and Research center at Muir Beach allow visitors and researchers to share the infrastructure over a natural slope. This programmatic exploration is defined by landform operations and a modern assemblage. The energetic cut of the volumes allow for a continuous pause between two different programs. The space created by the separation of two wall makes an ideal circulation path for integrating a staircase that follows the natural slope of the terrain. Also, the inner surface of the walls create unexpected textures and reflections of the framed sky and landscape. the separation between two walls allow the visitor to experience a dark or bright passage that leads to the top of the building.

Fencing Takes Form Fencing is one of the first sports ever to be played at the Olympic Games. For this design experiment, fencing is also a generator of form. The continuous extension of the arm during attack and defense generates a sequence of points and lines. By connecting these trajectories, we achieve a structural system with interesting spatial qualities.

Models and drawings are critical for the development of my own work. I’m always in the search of multiple iterations based on performance, fundamentals on structure, speculative fabrication, and experiential qualities. On the images (right) we can see a sequence on top view, then a synthesis of this sequence transformed into a more abstract set of lines, and finally a structure.

Document Experiments We utilized text-based practices to create written documents that blur the lines between writing and drawing, literature and design, and text and image. We examined language and text as material processes that can operate outside the narrative conventions of historical writing, various literary genres, or the formal aspects of graphic design (David Gissen) Right image: "Translation of a Khipu"

Cat in Tokyo Studio in Japan. Summer 2017 Professors: Thom Faulders - Faulders Studio Andrew Kudless - MATSYS As the embodiment of 21st century urban living, Tokyo challenges our preconceptions for architectural domesticity amidst high-speed forces of change that are today shaping cities throughout the world. Tokyo remains a densely packed city ‘in the making’. Far from being a fixed metropolitan environment that clings to an abstract idea of itself, Tokyo instead moves toward its untapped future through pliable attitudes of adaptability, architectural impermanence, and high-energy inventiveness. The result is surprisingly novel formations of everyday domestic architecture and urban life. There is a generation of emerging Japanese designers who are specifically using domestic space as the venue for a radical rethinking of collective forms of living. These buildings become places of personal expression and architectural experimentation, and establish the city as a hotbed of innovation and experimentation unmatched in the U.S.
