“For the wise man looks into space and he knows there is no limited dimensions.”

-Zhuangzi What if we could visualize what is going on in our brain? What if we could project what is going on in our brain into an immersive space? Mendi is a wearable device that allows us to visually see our brain activity through blood flow in the prefrontal cortex. Only now, it is not limited to the screen.Through a series of interactive spaces accompanied by synchronized visual and auditory stimuli, this immersive experience will allow you to not only discover

摩 耗 MAMO A RESILIENT CASE STUDY HOUSING PROJECT

3 CASE STUDY HOUSING

MAMO

Restorative nostalgia manifests itself in total reconstructions of monuments of the past, while re ective nostalgia lingers on ruins, the patina of time and history, in the dreams of another place and another time.

Svetlana Boym, The Future of Nostalgia

MAMO MAMO is an affordable housing project for families that are affected by the Eaton re in Altadena, California. The concept is to let things age beautifully, embrace the wear & tear, and be one with nature. Each room is modular and customizable to the client’s needs. The design aims to evoke the Buddhist concepts of transience, impermanence, and ephemerality through the use of natural materials, patina, and perforations that interplay with light and shadows.

RESIDENCE

4 RESIDENTIAL DESIGN

READCREST

READCREST RESIDENCE I was tasked with the interior decorating of a sun-soaked, modern mansion nestled in the idyllic hills of Beverly Hills. The house is surrounded by lush greenery and offers beautiful panoramic views of Los Angeles. Its white, sleek architecture can feel cold and sterile at times; however, it provides a wonderful blank canvas to warm up with furniture, lighting, wallpaper, drapery, plants, and artwork. I incorporated earthy tones combined with calming neutrals, and added natural textures to complement the existing limestone brick walls. The goal was to create a luxurious yet cozy atmosphere for this residence.

Beauty is an experience, nothing else. It is not a xed pattern or an arrangement of features. It is something felt, a glow or a communicated sense of neness.
