REDEFINING THE WALL

This project is a re-interpretation of the wall that separates West 53rd Street and the Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Sculpture Garden located at the Museum of Modern Art. Although the garden is open to the public, it is closed off to the people on the street, creating exclusion from the outside world. This project takes the idea of this wall existing as a barrier, and transforms it to be more inclusive to those on the street side, and the general public.

10 Ways to Subvert A...

The preliminary design assignment to the overall project, challenging the ways in which we can subvert our school’s atrium to make it more accessible.

02 HARLEM FIRE STATION

This project is a proposed fire station in East Harlem, New York that reflects the needs of the neighborhood. It serves the community as an accessible public space while intertwining private use for firefighters as a vital component of the urban environment. Visitors will walk up ramps to a roof garden while observing the operations of a fire station.

In collaboration with Ariadna Vazquez and Alex Pichol.

HOUSE ON LAKE STARNBERG

From Fink + Jocher Architecture Firm, the House on Lake Starnberg was built for a five-person family on the edge of Lake Starnberg in Munich, Germany. On the ground floor is a self-contained flat with two studies and living spaces on the upper floor, providing privacy and a breathtaking view of the lake. The structure’s timber framing creates a compact design with large solid larch frame members. As seen from the exterior, the house contains a flat roof with a key structural element, the cantilever, as the second floor overhangs the first floor.

04 THE LIVING SCULPTURE

The Living Sculpture is a live/work apartment building intended for the local artists of Harlem. We have designed a building that gives housing to artists while simultaneously providing and serving their certain needs such as storage and plenty of space to work on projects of any medium. With six housing units, we also provided a public art gallery, a communal workspace, as well as a rooftop sculpture garden. These spaces provide the artists opportunities to work on and display their artwork within the building. On the facade, we wanted to echo the ever-changing movement of artistic expression. It is a reminder that art is not confined to a studio but can be expresed in any form.

FRUIT OF THE LONDON PLANE

We have designed an ecospace inspired by the seed pods that grow on the London Plane Trees in Bryant Park, NY. The intention of this project was to create an ecosystem designed to be an escape from the city and a connection to nature, merging biotic and abiotic functions.

In collaboration with Etty Jajati.

This diagram demonstrates the multiple functions of our ecospace that interacts with nature. Once the seed pods of the London Plane trees fall to the ground at a certain point in their life cycle, visitors can collect them to put inside of our individual pods to feed the birds.

INVISIBLE HOUSE

The Invisible House, located on the outskirts of Treviso, Italy was designed by architect, Tadao Ando, who envisioned a structure that seamlessly integrates with the natural landscape. He and landscape designer Domenico Luciani sculpted the surroundings, creating a series of rolling hills that embrace the house, nearly disappearing into the earth, with much of it semi-buried underground. The house is a striking combination of concrete and glass, extending over 17,000 square feet on the property.

In collaboration with Ariadna Vazquez, Babisha Manandhar, and Fatiha Tazrin

THE SALTBOX

The design for this accessory dwelling unit in Portland, Maine is driven towards invlusivity, accessibility, and a thoughtful response to its context. Through our approach, we aimed to create a dwelling that not only meets functional needs but also fosters intergenerational living and enhances the quality of life for its occupants.
