CULTIVATE
Housing and permaculture community for migrant farmworker’s families.
From increasing safety, social interaction, STEM education, offsetting C02 emissions, and overall produce resources, the integration of permaculture into Visalia’s new neighborhood will contribute to the multigenerational well-being of its residents. On site maintenance and produce are to be shared, with every apartment courtyard having its own different monoculture for easier maintenance. This system promotes shared responsibility and invites increased socializing that will naturally include and introduce children to STEM.

SUSPENDED CONNECTION
Micro Live/Work/Retail and exhibition space for local artists.
Suspended Connections is a culmination of two projects, Process and Exposure and Motions of Bread, developed seperately and coming together as a concept exploration. Inspired and connecting to the existing bread making towers and Bread & Salt, Suspended Connection aims to connect artists to each other through the physical transparency of process, display, and physical singular steel tube supportive system.

STONE HEARTH
Destination lookout facility for hikers in Hverfjall Center.
Stone Hearth is a place of rest that progressively gets warmer and brighter on the inside via geothermal heating, white interior, and occulus sunlight to reflect and pay homage to the creation story of the site. The Stone Hearth acts similarly to a Volcano that is warmer on the inside with magma but exterior has natural lava rock to the location.
