Location I Jefferson University, Philadelphia Project I Architecture Studio Addition
THE C.A.B.E. CONNECTOR Due to seperated buildings, the incoming architecture students at Jefferson have had little opportunity to learn from upperclassman in a shared space. To combat this issue, my design partner (Jessica Forssell) and I worked to create “The C.A.B.E. Connector” - a cantilevered structure that bridges the gap between first year studios and upperclassmen design space. This building creates a unique communal space without interfering with the existing trees and walking paths.

Determined to keep the “C.A.B.E. Connector” as a cantilever, the structural system had to be designed similar to a bridge. Taking advantage of the egress towers to the Northwest and Southwest, the steel framing rests on the CLT Walls that enclose the stair towers, while the additional load is covered by the Parallel Chord Trusses upon the roof.

Experimenting with sustainable alternatives to concrete, CLT became a primary material for both wall and floor systems. In addition, locally-harvested teak wood was chosen for the exterior paneling, giving a feeling of warmth to the facade and serving as an eco-friendly alternative.

CONNECTING COMMUNITY Originally designed as a general hospital for the elderly, De Gamles By was placed in isolation outside of Copenhagen’s thriving city center. Today, the site contains various programs that cater to the elderly and younger residents of Norrebro. “Connecting Community” was conceptualized in an effort to link the daily activities that elders and children engage in on Norrebro’s busy street corner.

“Connecting Community” aims to respond to the various activities on the site and connect to the surrounding context. This lifetime home is attached to the adjacent school and daycare, while also split into two seperate structures. This allows the central path between the street corner and green space to be kept open for pedestrians.

ADAPTING COMMUNITY GARDEN With the growth of West Philadelphia and the ever-present need for greenspace, the Peacetown Commons Land Trust sought help to conceptualize what the existing Peace Park could offer. After community discussions and events, it became evident that the park needed to serve both elders and youth alike. Whether coming to the site to work on the garden, relax in the shade, or play among structures this site creates an intergenerational space for the community. “Adapting Community Garden” explores the sustainable, affordable, and versatile use of operable shipping containers for an everevolving community.

94% of West Philadelphia’s population is African American. To create a park that challenges the past and highlights hope of a better future, a study of the Afrofuturist carpenter, Peter Mabeo, was conducted. Inspiration from Bernard Tschumi’s sequence diagrams led to the exploration of a sequence study around Mabeo’s furniture. Which then, in turn, informed the operable effects of the shipping containers.

MODEL MAKING Models not only highlight craftsmanship, but they also offer a deep understanding of the project design, encourage new ideas, and offer insight to design issues. Physical models tell a story that digital graphics cannot. Throughout my studies at Jefferson University and internship at Chris Dawson Architect, I have become passionate about model making and seeing the opportunities they provide during the design process and for clients.
