LYRIS SANCHEZ SANCHEZ \\DESIGN LYRIS DESIGN PORTFOLIO
Nature is ever at work building and pulling down, creating and destroying, keeping everything whirling and flowing, allowing no rest but in rhythmical motion, chasing everything in endless song out of one beautiful form into another.

O. HH EE LL LL O. My name is Lyris Sanchez and am a native Coloradoan living in Denver. I’ve gained my Bachelor’s of Science in Architecture in 2015 at the University of Colorado Denver. Currently, I’m working on obtaining my Master’s in Architecture at the University of Colorado Denver. My goals are to work for a local firm that practices public and higher education designs and eventually pursue my licensure. I’ve had architecture internships at KTGY, Colorado Center for Community Development (CCCD) and am currently an intern at Architecture PML. Hiking and snowshoeing are my favorite outdoor activities. Traveling is an important aspect in my life to see different perspectives and how architecture has impacted people’s daily lives. I’m looking forward to build relationships with enthusiastic people.

01 01 HIDDEN HIDDEN HEART HEART
CONCEPT CONCEPT Over fifteen years ago the gray and weathered wood was salvaged from a bench by Lyris’ dad in Boulder, Colorado. The material, thought to be red oak, was taken home and was crafted into another bench before being given a thick coat of protective orange paint. The true identity of the material was revealed only after the paint was stripped and the wood cut into. With its incredibly high density and deep burgundy color it could only be purpleheart. Purpleheart wood is known to have spiritual qualities that creates positive energy and removes tension in the home. It is believed that it enhances creative energy, knowledge, and assists in healing�.

PROCESSION PROCESSION

The procession begins when the user decides to become integrated within the winery through context. The procession is meant to be a fluid gesture introducing the programmatic zones as they unfold through the individual’s experience. Arista offers a natural procession that guides the user through a continuing path of vineyards being displayed. The individual will be guided through a sequence of moments that hold them in the space and begins to define a zone of experience. The navigators of the space will have awareness of the surrounding context through quick glimpses. Once they reach the end, they will be released towards a grand view of the regional context.

03 SWANSEA SWANSEA ELEMENTARY 03
I began working with Architecture PML in August 2016. Throughout my time with PML, I’ve worked on several projects. The most prominent project has to be Swansea Elementary. Anderson Mason Dale was the lead architect. I entered the project when it was in Design Development. I jumped into Revit and began designing a variety of details. Soon after, the client chose a general contractor and the project began construction. Ever since, I’ve attended OACs, toured the site, wrote field obsersation reports, organized/reviewed submittals and RFIs. I’ve gained an abundant amount of experience during this project and I believe I’m a strong canditate for an Architect Intern position. I’ve become a better listener and communicator due to working with other consultants. I feel confident in creating documents in Revit and be critical of the design process. I can take the experience I learned into my career and become a successful designer.

04 04 DIY DIY BOWL BOWL
CONCEPT CONCEPT With a small donation of canned food, you can create your own salad bowl directly from our local garden. Our vegtables are organically grown within our greenhouse and outside garden. Our locally grown food accomplishes two things: promotes a healthy lifestyle and gives food to those who need it.

MISSION MISSION West

More than 850 million people do not get enough food when there is already enough food being produced on this planet for everyone. Ten billion tons of fertilizer is used every year to produce feed for U.S. livestock. Our mission is to provide a place where people within the community can pick freshly grown food and generate healthy gardens within their homes.

05 05 THE THE JEWEL
CONCEPT CONCEPT Exploring the duality between light vs. dark within programmatic elements. The Black Box Theatre and Cinema represent a dark, inclusive environment that causes a fantastical world to emerge. The Atrium provides daylight and vertical circulation for incoming users. Offices will be provided on the upper levels. The way we envision the sequence of entry is through the atrium, then compressed under the black box into the cinema underground.

MISSION MISSION 5

Our aim is to provide small performing arts space for aspiring actors in the Denver community. There is a lack of support for the performance community in the LoDo Historic District that should be recognized. Denver is growing and expanding into a creative and diverse city that should highlight the performance culture as a positive outcome. A black box theatre is an intimate environment that offers flexible techniques in equipment for a diverse performance.

CONCEPT CONCEPT Salud is a health and wellness center providing standard medical services, dental services, exercise classes, and informational medical sessions for members of the community who cannot afford health insurance. The majority of the community has younger families that need resources to generate a healthy growth for their children.

CONCEPT CONCEPT Picante (“spicy”) is a salsa restaurant that brings the brand of “the outlaw” with the purpose of being free and revolutionary. The theme rises from the culture of the neighborhood that it is artistically expressive, and we intend to influence the community with an expressive building.

Picante is about a complex of buildings that includes the salsa restaurant, a grocery store, and a greenhouse that will provide some types of food to the other two programs. The special relationship between the buildings will create a public area open for the community where they can do any kind of leisure activities.

08 08 VEREDA VEREDA VILLAGE VILLAGE
CONCEPT CONCEPT A vereda is an informal path that is defined by its use. Formed over time by its users, veredas are narrow and organic, adapting to how users define it. The path in this community will be flexible enough to be transformed to meet the residents needs. The Village, too, will adapt to its residents, promoting community and growth within the site, encouraging active adoption and molding by residents. Vereda Village’s location is ideal for an affordable housing development that connects residents to community assets, including nearby downtown businesses, parks, schools, and the Santa Barbara City College.

ACCESS Parking and accessing the site through vehicle is an important asset to Monteria Village. We decided to keep the existing parking because it is conveniently placed for residents and provides access to the existing comminuty center. The middle unit highlighted in red, will become an extension for the community center serving as office and administration.
COMMUNAL The new communal space will establish a reconnection with the residents to enjoy their space. Providing activities for families and creating a healthy environment will generate a broader appreciation for Monteria Village.
GREEN RIBBON The residents at Monteria Village are lacking a connection to the surrounding programs around their site. We are proposing a continuous green circulation through the inner and outer edges of Monteria Village to provide access for pedestrians and bikers. Residents have greater opportunities for physical activity, place-making and creating social connections through the use of this pathway.
GOALS MOVEMENT: The site will encourage movement
throughout all areas of the site, as well as provide more natural connections to community assets beyond the site’s boundaries.
COMMUNITY: Natural features combined with
creative layouts will create a neighborhood within the site, encouraging social, supportive connections among residents.
RESILIENCY: This site will provide a complete
residential environment, which promotes health, conserves natural resources, and built to support residents for decades to come.
