Art Gallery Spring 2021 | Marietta, Georgia, US A platform for the underrepresented with artistic representation. Progression through the spaces occurs along an architectural promenade made cohesive via material expression and interior light wells, which allow for momenents of reflection and contemplation between gallery spaces. Light filled spaces between galleries create a steady rhythym between experiencing the works and contemplation.

Context Located in the heart of Marietta, Georgia, this project activates its street front façade with a staggered geometry and angled entrance to facilitate interaction from those passing by along the sidewalk. The interior is composed of spatial qualities catered to experiential feelings for specific works of art, taking an active rather than neutral stance with the art being presented.

ROTATE An orientation change creates natural views into the interior gallery spaces.

SUBTRACT Removal of the building footprint that passes the party wall of the adjacent building.

INDENT Creating facade variation that allows light to enter the galleries and establish back-of-house space.

RESULT An active form that engages the exterior while also producing an intriguing light-filled interior layout.

Research Center Studio | Fall 2024 | Atlanta, Georgia, US A design that engages both the SCAD students and faculty as well as the Midtown Atlanta community by creating an internal experience that provides a stage for learning in the arts, which moves outwards with its blend of public and private spaces. The monumental walls act as a strong reference from entrance to exit as a way of differentiating interior spaces while gathering people into the communal spaces.

1 - ORIENT towards pedestrian pathways

4 - CONNECT sides divided by walls

2 - EXTEND walls as continuous datum

5 - RESULT of formal gesture

3 - ALIGN program to walls

The monumental walls oriented towards the pedestrian circulation act as a datum by which people move from public to private, following the pathway across a wide array of program types and spatial experiences. This theme of complementary duality is continued with the use of a visually light steel frame divided by the strong concrete mass of the walls and core.

Agritourism Complex Competition | Summer 2025 | Mirano, Italy When Walls Roam transforms the existing Villla Meneghetti into an opportunity for guests to connect with the history and appreciate the agricultural heritage of the site.

The individual forms of the complex are tied together with new pathways framed by steel thresholds which celebrate the existing context.
