Order of Works
Year 3: Church Gate/Fence (ARCH 509)
Applying my design and construction skills to a real life project that benefitted a community.
Year 3: Craft Distillery (ARCH 508)
Taking design and research and applying codes and regulations to make a popular distillery to hang out at around downtown.
I choose this design for this particular elevation at the corner of Sunnyside Ave. and Sunflower Rd. because I felt people wanted to see over at the elevation and even the sunset. All the while being both outdoors with a courtyard/hangout area, and inside with a two story tall lobby and studios that oversee the courtyard and the skyline.
Pavilion for the Senses
For this project, we looked at all five senses and we challenged ourselves to make a pavilion that catered to to all people regardless of senses they might have lacked. The other challenge was to not be over the top but rather to blend in all those senses into one major design that was welcoming to all people, plus we would also display art that was unique to people with different senses, so spacing was critical to the development of the sight.

Pop-Out Studio
On Mass. St., there are little walkways in between buildings, our goal was to make a studio within the dimensions of one of those walkways that stood out and made it appealing to people walking/driving by. I focused on a unique facade that wasn’t featured on any other building, and I wanted to design openings that would allow natural light to come in and keep the building moderate in temperature regardless of the season.

A place for Gathering
For this project, we went to a sight on lawrence’s east side by the train tracks and wanted to come up with a building that would be welcoming and get people to gather as a community. The entrance for my structure was along the curve of the road with a giant plaza outside for people to meet prior to entering the building. A lobby in the front only adds to the bonding experience thsi building is supposed to create, and the second story oversees the art and the front where everyone joins in blissful harmony.

Sustainable Response to a Site
This was a series of strctures for different sites that served to teach us about sustainable sight planning and material usage. Basically building a structure that would last a while and serve that sight well. different designs and new information regarding materials was needed. Overall, this project served as a good benchmark for where I was strong and where I could improve because my next project would take the lessons I learned from this module and push them to an extreme.
Farmer’s Market
This project took all I had learned over the past two years and combined it into a welcoming center with outdoor space for a farmer’s market so that people could come from the neighborhoods west of the sight or Mass. st. from the east and join as one community. I took sustainable and striking features I had gathered last year and used them for the exterior, and I took the use of space and purpose from all my classes and used that on the interior and the outdor seating areas. This project I feel is the culmination of all that I learned over the last two years.
Church Gate/Fence
This project was a good transition for me coming from spending a summer in a warehouse building sets for conventions and display shows. Getting a chance to combine both the design and construction process and experiement with different softwares was a unique experience and was the most hands-on learning I had experienced in my time studying architecture. The gate was my main contribution to the project, and with the help of several of my teammates, we were able to construct the entire project from scratch and provide a beacon of light to a struggling church.
Craft Distillery
This project introduced me to the more technical side and the actual process designers and architects must go through when constructing a building. Learning not just about materials and use of natural resources, but codes and guides one must follow when building in a certain area. I also got to break down the building I was making into layers and sections in a way I had never done before. It was a tough project pverall, but I learned alot more about the business and the process of designing buildings as well as regulations we must follow to be a part of a community.
Thank You!
