Fall 2020

Locate at the heart of China Town, Los Angeles. The agenda is to create as slender and porous massings as possible to participate in the aesthetic realm of delicateness, fragility, and precariousness architecture. It is creating a section-active dwelling unit using a planar, faceted geometry to correspond to the site’s tectonic logic.

The units types should be loosely based on the various types discovered in the precedent pairing research. Consider how the volumetric units might tessellate into larger patterns that produce a textured or smooth massing effect.

THE GHETTO FILM SCHOOL

Instructor: Mira Henry Spring 2021

Locate at 7th and Hoover St, LA. The project is for the Ghetto Film school. The school is helping teach young filmmakers to develop their voices and give them a platform to tell their stories to the world, creating meaningful professional experiences and job placements for high school students and equipping students for top universities and careers in the creative industry.

The building design is based on the behind the scenes process of filmmaking. The green color is inspired by the green screens used in the process and by the beautiful quilt by Rosie Lee Tompkins. The building arranges to emphasize the site location by providing flow and outdoor space.

DESIGN DEVELOPMENT

Instructor: Pavel Getov; Scott Uriu; Jamey Lyzun

Partner: Anqui Wang; Brandon Brown; Kimmy Van; Yumin Zhang, Yuntung Liu; Chris Gonzales; Dalya Fall 2021

The course investigates issues related to the implementation of design: technology, the use of materials, systems integration, and the archetypal analytical strategies of force, order and character. Reviewing of basic and advanced construction methods, analysis of building codes, the design of structural and mechanical systems, environmental systems, buildings service systems. The intent of this course is to develop a cohesive understanding of how architects communicate complex building systems for the built environment and to demonstrate the ability to document a comprehensive architectural project and stewardship of the environment.
