Architecture Studio 2 so-so husk: Community Kitchen in Mission Hill
To dichotomize and to consolidate.
Nestled within Boston’s historic Mission Hill, this one project is really of two. A display of novel idiosyncrasy while rooted in community. It is within this intermediate that this community kitchen falls, one bespoke to diverse needs while consolidating the whole. A user-defined program of sequential food preparation, consumption, and engagement.

This impression permeates into its spatial and aesthetic. Where ambiguous and perpetual spaces contrast those more habitual and orthogonal. Linear walls, organic ceilings, how its tensile, membrane-like roof drapes over solid and void. It is within this experiential function that an understanding of choice is reflected. To look down a slope of program yet find an individual path.
Housing communal activities and employment options, broader sentiments of accessibility and sustainability unfold through the medium of food. An auspicious husk defined entirely by those who inhabit it.

Recipe concept - tartine
Site circulation diagram
Personal recipes took a central role in the initial conception of this community kitchen. In my case the tartine assumed this. Offering compelling spatial and aesthetic premise, my peers each built their own unique tartines via a 4x4 grid game. The resulting shapes, paths, open, and enclosed spaces informed distinct spatial qualities in an otherwise confined environment, one similar to our queer human inhabitation of the urban fabric. It is within this intermediate that my project exists.
The final project balances two main elements, a linear and organic component. Following a chronological path down slope, more permanent linear structures house kitchen, bathroom, dining, and storage functions. While its organic spaces are more nonconforming; open to mortal desire.
CPT WORK

Two-Story Addition in Milton MA
This project encompasses all stages of a proposed two-story residential addition in Milton MA. From client consultation, sketches and in-field measurements, to final construction documents. The work was completed under supervision of a licsenced architect while working at GPH Design LLC.
Using AutoCAD Architecture software, I drafted removal / floor plans, exterior elevations with window schedules, floor and roof framing plans, typical wall and building sections / details.

Wharf
A uniquely distinct paradigm of time and place.
Boston’s Long Wharf bridges the Atlantic Ocean with the city’s northend. Housing both commercial and public uses, one inhabits the site in diverse means. Serving as a respite from the hectics of city life, both tourists and locals alike experience the expanse of the waterfront. Sensory elements of sound, smell, and touch are intrinsic to the site, the ocean breeze, the resonant hum of boats, the coarse footsteps of passersby…
The remnants of the historical dock alongside newer elements cajole an apparent threshold of time and space.

It is within this threshold where this project lies. One that migrates across linear datums while defining distinct space. Emerging from the grid, a gradient-like structure invites obscured material and experiential states. Elements of light, density, materiality, etc. shift and modulate to construct unique spatial experiences. Such are just as inherent as they are user-defined, whereby an ever-changing environment is promoted through shifting topographical elements.
Embracing an experiential function, notions of ambiguous, perpetual space overcome the otherwise confining standards of architectural custom.

Spatial Thinking A Center for...
In this course we were expected to undertake the construction and representation of environments, exploring digital modeling techniques, detail construction, lighting, atmosphere, and analog + digital workflows.
For discussion, debate, disupte, yet concurrence. This center is insouciant, whereby passerbyers can meet to dicuss life happenings in an environment that facilitates as such. I.e. a glorified park!

Model iteration (Illustrator, Rhino3D, Revit)
Revit experimentation
In many ways the same considerations that affect representation of this project – the sense of atmosphere, the volumes of the building or assemblies and their interplay with light, the composition of a drawing / rendering – reflect important realworld considerations of the project in relation to its specific site and environment.
A mishmash of Illustrator-, Rhino3D-, and Revit-based exploration, whereby each software played a core function in its creation. Obscuring the illustrative boundaries of architecture and landscape. To amuse the ancient agora in the contemporary.
