This work includes spears attached to a solid rectangular prism with the addition of a directional centerpiece. The fusion of these aspects creates a diverse, directional, and conceptual building. The interior introduce curved oval platform with criss cross placement to coincide with the exterior spear curve characteristic and directional form.

ZAHRA SAFAVERDI 1ST YEAR STUDIO

FICTIONAL CONCEPTUAL ISLAND; 2020

This studio was focused on the composition of an island environment. It was based off a personally chosen individual object; a beaded a bracelet. The repetitive and spherical use of the bracelet create this intriguing landscape of beads that can be portrayed as bubbles. This project is to be seen as playful, eccentric, and nonconforming. The island is suppose to be a space of tranquility, peace and rest. It is intended for people to occupy this environment to decompress from their busy worlds and come back to one self again. Spa circuits, meditation, and yoga activities would occur in this immersive and imaginative island.

RYAN SCAVNICKY 2ND YEAR STUDIO

VIRTUAL GAME WORLD HOME;

Purple Haze was created in a studio dedicated to the intermix of architecture and gaming. Unreal engine was one of the main Softwares used to create the renders of the piece of work. This project was initially sparked by the game animal crossing where various items in the game was 3D modeled and meshed together to create the solid exterior form and overall interior. Purple was intentionally chosen for the exterior and interior surfaces because of its natural creative, imaginative and supernatural aura. The texture provided in the structure creates a calm haze effect that portray an unreal interesting environment. The open interior was to provide extravagant out looking extended views of the spaces within this virtual home.

BRIDGING THE COMMUNITY

BRIDGING THE COMMUNITY

NOMAS STUDENT DESIGN COMPETITION

NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE; 2022

For this NOMAS design competition, we were given a prompt to create a bridge that would reconnect a disrupted North Nashville Black community. A interstate highway was purposely constructed in a way to cut through this community to dismantle black businesses and property wealth. Many families were displaced and many black business were shut down due to this constructed highway. Our collaborated project design solution was to uplift the community and bridge the two sides back together with separate pedestrian and vehicle tunnels. We also incorporated outdoor activity spaces and a multi-cultural center to provide educational, cultural and business opportunities for the community. The idea of this project was to acknowledge this devastating history with the intention to also heal and empower black individuals impacted by this highway. My whole group collaborated throughout the conceptual idea process of the project. My personal contribution was the exterior facade design, renders, and elevations.
