Description: Both architecture and music are art forms, and while they draw from different expressions, they are brought together by rhythm and proportions, from which creativity and ideas are born. This project not only incorporates the significance of Greek history which is heavily tied to its site, but also creates a space for music and architecture to exist in harmony.

PIXEL GARDEN
Term: 2023 l 6th Semester
Proffesor: Joseph Altshuler
Location: Albany Park, IL
Status: Complete
Description: This project is an infrastructure that works as a library for DIY gardening tools that focuses on reflecting local bird life and trees, which is an important characteristic of Albany Park. This project brings the local trees and animals onto the site by implementing greenery and creating an environment for both animals and people to coexist.
The project is comprised of 3 component that creates one big system. The first component is a ramp. The ramp acts as the heart of the circulation for both horizontal and vertical means. The second component is these boxes that I call pixels. These pixels comes in a few forms that hold different functions: object holder, lights, and birdhouses. Lastly, the trunks. These trunks act as the structure for the pixels and are the components that allow verticaility wihtin the project.
