Portfolio 2024 Julia Carceroni

About me

I am a graduating Architectural Design senior at the University of Washington with experience in design build, interior design, and real estate.. In addition to strengthening my technical design skills, my work and school experiences have driven me to learn more about social issues surrounding the built environment. As a result, I am currently in the process of earning my LEED Green Associate credential. I am also passionate about connecting architecture to my brazilian heritage, co-founding my university’s first Latine-based architecture club, Somos CBE. I am excited to gain experience and continue my architectural education

Winter studio final project

Instructor: Jennifer Dee

Medium: Rhino, Photoshop, Endscape, stacked cardboard

This project focuses on the forces of the site, working with a series of abstract models to create a photograpgy studio in line with the wind, land, and water forces of the site. The goal of this project was to understand positive and negative space in architecture.

The process of this project consisted of cardboard modeling, Rhino 3D digital modeling, followed by Endscape renders supplemented by photoshop collage. This is different from the more traditional design approach, which uses the program to inform elements of the site.

Edge Conditions: Tiber River October 2023

Architecture in Rome Studio Site Analysis

Instructor: Brian Mclaren

Medium: Hand Sketching, Photoshop

This project is a topographical site analysis. Using site photography, historical map data, and perspective drawing, this series documents the changing urban conditions of embankments along the Tiber River in Rome.

Building Study: St. Ignatius January 2023

Arch 380 “Computers in Architecture

Instructor: Elisa Rhinehard

Medium: Rhino3D, Photoshop

The St. Ignatius Chapel, located on the Seattle University campus, features unusually complex geometry, which makes it ideal for developing 3D rendering skills through programs like Rhino.

Using existing plans and section of the building, Students were taught to create a shell of the building. The complexity of the chapel roof provides an additional challenge when modeling.

Bath House June 2023

Spring Studio Final Project

Project Partner: Michelle Vu

Instructors: Junnichi Satoh, Matt Fujimoto, Elisa Renouard, Daniel D. Stettler

Medium: Revit, Rhino, Photoshop, multiple misc materials

With the objective of “making Seattle cool again,” this project proposes a public bath house for Capitol Hill, leading to increased community interaction. The Design of the bath house is inspired by both modern japanese bath houses, as well as ancient roman bath houses, which the figures reflect. The lower floors open to outdoor courtyards, allowing visitors to experience multiple aspects to nature and renewal. Spaces are separated into many layers, allowing visitors to explore the full space.

Fall 2022 Studio Final Project

Instructor: Rob Corser

Medium: Physical Model, Photoshop, Collage

A series of interventions in the Union Bay natural Area. These interventions interact with the landscape around them and invite visitors to engage with the site.

Flood map of the wetland area. During different time of the year, the water and vegetation change dramatically in the site.

The first pavillion is located directly facing the water, and features multiple levels, allowing visitors to experience the site from multile heights. The bottom level acts as a retreat into the ground. From there, visitors can travel up to the height of the trees, before entering the third level, where they can observe the landscape below.

The next two pavillions reflect change in the site, the “water level pavillion” (p. 14) feature a boardwalk form in an area of the site that frequently experiences flooding. Depending on the season, visitors can only walk on so much of the pavillion.

The “seasonal rotation pavillion” (p. 15) incorperates itself into and existing pathway overlooking the Union Bay. It is a tensile sctructure with its rotating arms representing the gradual change of the seasons. Taking advantage of the tension cables in the structure, swings have been incorperated as seating for tired visitors to resin on and experience the scenery.

Winter 2024 Studio Final Project

Instructor: Elizebeth Golden

Medium: Rhino 3D, Photoshop, Illustrator

this project proposes a residetial retrofit in the top three floors of the Inscape Arts building, which was once the INS detention center. This building which was once used to detain immigrants in the United States could be transformed into a welcoming home for them in the heart of Seattle’s international district. While the upper floors will serve as residences, gardens, and workshop space of new families, the bottom two floors will preserve their function as local artist studios, helping the building’s residents to be a part of the community.
