About Me More Than A Resumé I am more than a resumé, and hopefully the following can give some insight into who I am as a person. I have a very curious personality. I love to explore and discover new places and new things. I like to explore by traveling to new destinations, but more than that I like exploring my own city. I absolutely love finding new places and things to do in my area. Too often people become complacent in their daily lives, and they never see the rest of the world around them outside of their routine. Why always go to a restaurant I know I like, when there are so many other restaurants I’ve never been to? My tendency to explore goes beyond exploration of place to exploration of things. I love learning how things work; I am not the type to break something figuring out how it works, but I like to look at something broken or watch someone fixing something. It’s always interesting to me to see how different pieces in a system fit together.

Want to know more? Go to http://www.ktmhamiltondesigns.com

This brings me to the theme of this portfolio. Puzzles! I am a huge puzzle enthusiast; I find puzzle solving to be one of the best ways to decompress. Puzzles are an escape from the stresses of the world with hours of mindless, stressless freedom. My enthusiasm for puzzles stems from childhood. Every summer my family would buy a couple puzzles and each of us would work on the puzzle in our own individual time. I always loved coming back to the puzzle and seeing that someone in my family had made progress with the puzzle. I love working with people. I am definitely a social person; I know a puzzle enthusiast and social person seems like a contradiction, but for me it’s not - that just seems to be how I balance my life. Getting to know people and how they work is always interesting to me. I am not going to lie; sometimes I talk too much for other people, but typically I am observant enough to notice.

First Year Residential Given What Decide Where • • •

Urban Park Design Programming Space Creation

My focus in the design was to create two distinct and opposing feelings in the space. On the West side of the site I created a place of serenity and reflection buffered from the surrounding urban environment. The use of organic lines, vegetation, and water features creates a relaxing space. On the East side of the site I created an “urban” feel. The use of hardscapes and hard lines throughout along with dense programming make this space extremely stimulating.

Model Making Space Creation

While working on this project I was able to explore the properties of model making. I was also able to explore the effects of designed spaces on the human psyche. After exploring these subjects I was better able to understand the feelings different elements in the landscape evoke in a person. For example, a narrow elevated path feels dangerous without protection, but even a small fence can make a person feel much safer in the same conditions.

Second Year Residential Architect’s House • •

Transitions Outdoor Rooms

LakeMyHouse main goals for this project were to create a functional oreoutdoor Year living area, while taking inspiration from the architecture and the lake to create a pleasing aesthetic.

To help transition from the formal architecture to the lake, I enclosed the outdoor rooms with a hedge, and let the outer reaches draw inspiration from the waves on the shore.

Space Making Identity Strengthening

For this project, I was able to create a place with a wide variety of spaces, which would in turn suit the needs of a wide variety of users. The use of different landforms such as depressions and hills allowed each space to be used by different groups for different purposes. By taking inspiration from the current paving pattern of the Dick Bell brickyard design, I was able to incorporate my design in the existing campus fabric.

Density Studies Building Design Parking Design

The design shown to the right is the culmination of a semester long study on density in community design for a developer. Throughout the semester I explored how to design the site using various forms of community design from low density lot layouts to a high density apartment complex. The design shown creates a more complete community; it incorporates lots for single homes, townhouses, and apartments, as well as a community center and retail area. Understanding the parking needs of differing densities allowed me to explore different ways to incorporate parking while minimizing the impact on community aesthetic. In this particular design much of the commercial and apartment parking is located underground or below a greenroof, minimizing the perceivable impervious space.

Floor Plan Design Programming Rough Grading

This project also gave me experience with programming and community development. Having to design the interiors and uses of buildings really helps to inform the landscape surrounding them. Hopefully an understanding of this concept will help me in the future when working with developers.

Third Year Residential Leela House • •

Permaculture Design Sustainable Community

The Leela house is set in Earthhaven Ecovillage, a sustainable living community in Black Mountain, North Carolina. I focused on creating an edible landscape that would serve as a great space for entertaining and community gatherings. The patio’s design of various size areas for congregating are meant to function well for parties that include activities such as dancing. My design was heavily inspired by permaculture; it focuses on creating zones, with the most intensely used zones being closest to the house, while zones further from the house need less attention. The planting plan is based off the seven layer forest concept, creating plant communities that coexist well. Overall, the research for this project and the understanding I gained of both permaculture design and the community fostered by permaculture made this one of my favorite residential projects.

Dimensional Constraints Topographical Change

In order to break up the linear feeling of the lot, I divided the backyard with a small path and tall plantings along the back fence. Due to the changes in topography, sight lines were a major consideration in the design as well.

Collaborative Design International Design Urban Infill

This project is located in the Karlin district of Prague. The overall urban design was a group project in which the overall structure of the design was chosen. Each of the group members then went on to design specific sections of the design. Through this project I learned that streets and usage are the connecting tissues of a project. Understanding how streets meet and what different areas will be used for greatly affect the design for an urban area. Sight lines are also a vital consideration in urban design.

Collaborative Design Storm Water Management

Triad Connection is a master plan for NC State’s student housing department. The design was a group project in a studio concentrating on developing a master plan for future design-build studios. The design focuses on useful social spaces for students and stormwater conveyance. The design was collaborative, and production of the perspectives below was one of my concentrations in the project as well as combining documentation for the group.

Narrative: This garden represents the depression and reflection stage of grief. In order to emphasize these emotions and encourage healthy discussion during therapy sessions, many visual and tactile elements have been included. As guests approach this area of the garden they are forced to ascend a steep set of narrow stairs that represent the struggle of acknowledging a loss. Upon reaching the top of the hill, the guests is greeted by a sculptural gate that blocks the generator; the gate takes on the impact of the event with its concave form. This area has a wide path with bench surrounded by blue and purple evergreens that allows for a calm area of reflection. After passing the generator, the guests have a choice of paths, the one to the left leads to a pond or to the anger and bargaining area. The path to the right leads to a bench, where counselors can talk with patients about sculptural plantings. Two sets of shrubs will be planted as to have views through them, one set with a nice view and one set with nothing but a brick wall behind. This area is also filled with a ornamental grass that will sway in the wind, allowing patients to get lost in their thought. Getting lost in thought is a huge inspiration throughout the garden. Guests are encouraged to sit either by themselves or with a counselor and to look at the various textures in soothing hues and reflect on their life. There is also a reflective pool, which is dyed black to be even further reflective. Even the paving stones will be installed in such a way as to encourage contemplation; as patients are forced to pay attention to their cadence, they will have to slow down in certain areas of the garden due to the spacing of the stones. Overall this garden is meant to be a place for quiet contemplation and reflection, and hopefully paths of communication will open up as a result of this space of free thought.

Perspective of Sculptural Gate: Concave form represents the impact a death can have on an individual.

Perspective of Framing Shrubs: The two sets of hollywood junipers frame contrasting views; one set frames a view of nothing more than bricks, while another frames a view of a boulder and lush vegetation. This provides a good starting point for discussion.

Analysis Stakeholder Relations Program Development

After analyzing built works similar to the multimodal hub proposed by the city, I analyzed the site and surroundings physically and culturally. I looked at the existing transportation facilities, circulation patterns, and the culture of the neighborhood of the proposed site. I also had more meetings with city planning staff and regional transit planners, and other stakeholders to understand the project goals. Based on the case studies, site analysis, and meetings with stake holders I developped a program for the site.

Based on my case studies, site analysis, and stakeholder reaction to possible alternatives I developped a master plan that connected the proposed multimodal transit center with the downtown business core. The plan also served to revitalize the warehouse district, respecting the past through the incorporation of warehouse doors, train tracks running through plazas, and designing for the future with high density residential development as well as a retail core near the train and bus station.
