The Foundry District, strategically nestled west of North Lamar on 5th Street, emerges as Austin’s transformative urban endeavor. Envisioned as a nucleus for sustainable living, this initiative unites the Clarksville District with Lady Bird Lake, anticipating urban growth and fostering neighborhood connections. At its heart lies the Bloomeries, a trio of net-positive vertical farms. These cutting-edge greenhouses employ mass timber, an atrium, and a dual-skin facade with photovoltaic panels to optimize sunlight exposure. Their innovative design captures over 16,000 gallons of water monthly through a triangulated butterfly roof. In a post-pandemic effort, the Foundry District redefines grocery shopping by intertwining nature and technology, reinstating the joy of discovering food’s origins. This fusion of urban vitality and ecological mindfulness epitomizes Austin’s path to a sustainable future, reshaping the urban landscape harmoniously.

Public and private spaces are separated by a transitional interior void space. This void space acts as an atrium that passively contributes to indoor air quality, allowing for control of humidity due to the greenhouse conditions. It also passively increases interior natural daylighting to maximize east lighting without increasing buildng footprint.

Foundry District serves the Austin community as a central hub for healthy foods, sustainable interaction. The District capitalizes off an underutilized area near downtown, west of to serve the city in anticipation of massive growth but also to establish a direct connection District and Lady Bird Lake. The urban-scale site aims to encourage multi-modal transportation, interaction, and demand sustainability and resource efficiency. The Foundry District utilizes vertical farms that not only democratize locally-sourced organic food but also act as hubs of practices. Named the Bloomeries, these vertical greenhouses utilize a mass timber system, double-skin facade with photovoltaic panels to maximize south and east sunlight and mitigate harsh building employs the use of a specially-designed triangulated butterfly roof and gutter to gallons a month, which provides all the potable water needed for the internal systems that require District ultimately provides a space that empowers the customer and reinstills the desire to shop pandemic made grocery shopping an anxiety-ridden experience. It is here that the intersection come together to connect Austin and provide the narrative of a sustainable future by allowing where their food is grown from.

Public, void, and private spaces are connected to form a singular building to control systems to protect users from harsh Texas weather and elevate the user expereince.

The Foundry District’s sustainable greenhouses utilize FSC-certified mass timber in a 20’x20’ grid, coupled with recycled limestone aggregate concrete cores for structure. Supported by 80-foot piles, the foundation connects to Austin’s chilled water line. Radiant heating, decoupled ventilation, and operable mullions ensure efficient airflow. The first two floors employ forced air cooling, while greenhouses use evaporative cooling. Each building’s western facade features 6,750 sq ft of photovoltaics, enabling selfsufficiency through natural resource utilization.

Un Chocolat redefines architectural innovation within Joshua Tree National Park. Birthed from AI-generated imagery and a 3D-printed puzzle, it morphed into an interactive masterpiece. This dual-function structure seamlessly blends private and public spaces through an intricate play of solid and void forms. Un Chocolat not only serves as a visitor center and museum but also embodies the park’s essence. It marries nature with design, inviting visitors to engage with both history and landscape. This project showcases how creativity and technology can transform traditional spaces, harmonizing architecture, art, and nature. Un Chocolat is a testament to architectural evolution, illustrating the limitless possibilities of enriching human experiences in the heart of natural marvels.

“Bamboozled” intricately weaves architectural expression with the layers of Southeast Asian rainforests, harmonizing design and nature. The bamboo structure, mirroring cyclical rhythms, beckons contemplation for hikers individually or in groups. Guided by the site’s contours, it cultivates spontaneous interactions. Once within, visitors engage with a locally commissioned wind chime, enveloped in the serene landscape. Beyond its footprint, the bamboo structure embraces sustainability, returning to the earth gracefully. This project redefines sustainability through thoughtful design and local craftsmanship, showcasing elegance in simplicity. With minimal disruption, it highlights the power of collaboration and native materials, manifesting a lasting, culturally resonant architectural narrative.

Concrete, steel, and wood are the most common building materials. Many engineers are attempting to create new materials in an effort for a more sustainable future, but the Bamboozled Experience attempts to re-aim the efforts of the creation of new materials towards the assessment of existing materials. Bamboo is commonly seen in Asian countries, but has not made its way into the western world of construction and architecture. Bamboo offers the renewability of wood with tensile strengths approaching that of steel. Bamboo could be the future of sustainability.

The Center for Analogue Architecture in the Anthropocene Otzi Research Facility is nestled in the Italian/Austrian Alps, strategically selected for its trail connectivity. This innovative project employs a pre-fabricated modular system, utilizing reclaimed shipping containers suspended above the terrain. Swift off-site assembly expedites time-critical research processes. Module placement is tailored to diverse site conditions. On level ground, a flexible single-story layout emerges. For steep Alpine landscapes, a dynamic multi-story configuration of stacked modules prevails. A straightforward algorithm arranges modules, making 90° turns in relation to the slope. Radiation analysis identifies optimal compositions, adjusted for programmatic needs. Enveloping circulation links the spaces, shielded from the elements. The modular design allows seamless expansion, from labs to living quarters, or eventual removal, leaving a haunting array of concrete piers.

In the near future of vertical cities, old ways of getting around won’t cut it. That’s where SkyCrossings steps in – an inventive solution born from buildings teaming up. Using smartly joined lightweight pieces, it crafts high paths between skyscrapers. Picture putting building blocks into a “Y” shape – that’s how it begins. These shapes connect in nine ways, forming new routes up in the air. But SkyCrossings is more than just movement; it transforms into an urban essential. It’s not only weaving through gaps but merging with buildings, casting light and connections. These elevated paths offer spaces to meet, think, and relish city views. SkyCrossings shows us how cities can improve by using overlooked spots, bridging practicality and aesthetics, and inspiring us to aim high.

My ceramics explore the interplay between nature and human-made constructs, telling the age-old story of the clash of man versus nature. By interlocking and juxtaposing organic and inorganic forms, my art urges contemplation of our impact on the environment. I dream to prompt a gradual discourse on our ecological footprint, subtly woven into themes and design choices.

Throughout my journey, I deliberately contrast nature’s essence with human-made materials, creating an uneasy yet symbolic harmony that mirrors the complex relationship between humanity and nature. Each piece mirrors the dichotomy of our existence, urging us to address ecological responsibilities. Through ceramics, I aim to raise awareness and spark dialogue about our role within the environment’s intricate web of connections and conflicts.
