INTR O D U C T I O N I am a rising senior undergraduate architecture student interested in architecture, healthcare architecture, and urban planning at Kent State University’s College of Architecture and Environmental Design. My goal is to gain both NCARB AXP hours and experience working in a professional design context. I hope to one day practice as a licensed architect in the Greater Cleveland region. My existing work within the region can be seen below with academic projects demarcated in green, and professional projects demarcated in red. My philosophy toward architecture and design may always be morphing and changing as I learn, but one facet remains constant: developing functional spaces for people and for the human experience should always be at the center of every decision I make as an architectural student and professional.

ZDM - 4.19.20 - TREE OF LIFE SYNAGOGUE CAPITIAL IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT FIRST FLOOR PLAN NOT TO SCALE
This project is a proposed memorial and building renovation to Pittsburgh’s Tree of Life Synagogue after a deadly shooting there killed 11 people in 2018. The design uses the language of the site and the existing main chapel, but also introduces soft curves in various parts of the facade. The building is divided by floor and by “cluster” to allow the facility to form various experiential identities, and to connect to the neighborhood. The epicenter of the design is the memorial and the associated courtyard, which is publicly accessible, but still hidden as to not disrupt the grain of the residential neighborhood surrounding the synagogue. As the Tree of Life complex houses three distinct but united congregations, three sanctuaries are proposed: two on the first floor, and one on the second floor. According to Judaic tradition, the Bimah, Ark, and other religious objects are able to be placed appropriately facing Jerusalem.

Sited in the picturesque landscape of the Storm King Art Center in Orange County, NY, a single building structure containing a restaurant and winery with accompanying vineyards was proposed. Responding to the typical photographic language of the site, as well as that of mid-century modernist photography, this project attempts to undermine the prescriptive, objectified nature of such images. A hyper-collage, which can be defined as a potpourri containing a large amount of individual components creating a new construct, was utilized. This specific hyper-collage utilized standard architectural components, which makes up the facade envelope of the building, distorting each individual piece’s “image” and implied function.

Located at the corner of E 4th St and Prospect Ave E in the heart of Cleveland, LOFT CLE is proposed to serve the community by making optimal nourishment attainable for all, while paying homage to the city of Cleveland. Steel I-beams frame the building’s design and glazing is used to enclose the spaces. Additionally, wood slat cladding unifies the upper floors, providing shade and a unique element to the context of the city. This structural assembly maintains the existing grain of the rectilinear city storefronts, yet explores new sectional relationships instead of simple stacked floor organizations. These elements come together, creating a hub for food to be utilized by all.

In the context of a studio assignment, I proposed a localized cultural and recreational center for Cleveland’s Russian speaking community. The vertically constructed project is organized into three “clusters:” vertical water gardens, cultural spaces, and recreational spaces. At the center of these clusters are the banyas, the Russian saunas, as banyas are the pinnacle of social interaction in Russian culture. The vertical network of spaces acts as a site response to Tremont, taking abstracted formal cues from the design of Russian Orthodox churches and Soviet architecture alike. The stacked vertical structure eliminates a hierarchy of spaces, and gives each space its own floor.

During my first year design studio, much of my work was an exploration of design techniques, ideas, and management. One such exercise to teach representation was that of the cubic domain: in essence, I was assigned to take multiple abstract figure-ground drawings and overlay them until they could become a 3D cubic form. We then experimented with materiality, modeling the cubic designs using cardstock paper, wooden sticks, and stacked foamcore board. The designs within the cube originate from patterns and motifs. Those patterns were derived from an exercise in which i overlaid architectural photographs I took around the Kent State campus to interconnect with one another. After that, I selected various regions of the design and developed them into figure ground drawings.

As the main project in my second semester of architecture school, the extreme topographical retreats project was an exercise to develop the idea of human scale and landscape within compositions. I was assigned an extreme and peculiar landscape in which I was to construct three dwelling spaces: one called ‘my space,’ once called ‘your space,’ and a combination of the two forms called ‘our space.’ The position of the spaces upon the landscape are symbolic in that they represent the different perceptions of how people relax and retreat -- either being grounded, feeling a natural high/adrenaline rush, or somewhere in between.

Kent State University | Fall 2019 In a formal investigation-heavy studio, I decided to ‘carve out’ the programmatic requirements into the form for a fashion museum -- essentially establishing a sense of familiarity within the building, but letting the formal gestures of the facade remain abstracted. The various curves and twists of the form pay homage to the aliyev center, but also acknowledge that the space is indeed a fashion museum.

This project involves a full design of a unique but simple home in Santa Fe, New Mexico, for a Methods and Materials 1 class. We were tasked with designing and documenting fully developed architectural drawings for this home. We used native and typical architecture, known as “pueblo” architecture, to design the home -- and we used many natural materials, such as adobe mud brick.

In a neighborhood and city that lacks quality, activated, and permeable public spaces, I proposed an “interior street” that invites pedestrians directly off of W. 25th street to pass through the building and investigate numerous experiences along their way to the rooftop park. This interior walkway acts as an activated space that is a “journey” to a setting that provides views of the Ohio City neighborhood, Lake Erie, and the Cleveland skyline from an elevated rooftop public park.

In this memorial proposal, raw mortality is showcased through a variety of formal and material mediums. A network of recessed pathways and staircases represent the chaos that occurred at that very site in 1970. A feeling of helplessness overcomes the viewer and he or she stands below grade, and stares up to the menacing facade of Taylor Hall above -- just as the four victims of the shooting did. As a viewer proceeds through the “carved� pathway, it is clear that the journey is reminiscent of walking through a cemetery.

The act of putting pencil to paper and creating something visual is a large part of what inspired me to one day become an architect. I have always found hand drawing a more organic process than drafting online -- the imperfect lines, slight distortion of scale, and eraser marks add a human element to the drawing process. I have included sketches of buildings that have interested me in Odessa, Ukraine; Cleveland, Ohio; and Tel Aviv, Israel; respectively.

Collaging can be used to form Art Deco buildings and cityscapes. This “building� was fully collaged using facades from buildings in Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Youngstown, Michigan, and New York. The collaged image was then processed through a variety of typical art-deco architectural mediums, such as charcoal sketches, blueprint drawings, and over saturated renderings.

Collaging can also be a tool to alter existing conditions at various scales. The image shown above is an existing photograph of the Pittsburgh skyline from the city’s North Shore. Using editing techniques, the city’s environment, size, and architectural dynamic changes in the bottom image, as Pittsburgh is instantly transformed into a tropical, coastal city on an Ocean.
42
Similarly, in this set of photographic images, the Cleveland skyline is altered by adding more buildings, and thus obfuscates the typical ďŹ gural nature of skylines. This then further alters the very identity of a city, as a city’s skyline is often a formal motif in marketing, sports, business, etc.

Due to an immense interest in the urban context of Cleveland, here are some images of a digital scale model I made of the city of Cleveland using the software program Rhino. This digital model is almost like a parametric documentation of the real-life city: as it grows and changes, so too can the digital model. This digital model can also be used as a “site model” for new or proposed projects within the confines of the city.

In planning a proposal to my girlfriend (now my fiance), I knew that I wanted to pop the question atop a Cleveland rooftop with amazing view of the city skyline and lake. I also thought it might be meaningful to use my architectural knowledge to draft up an elevation of the venue, so that we could remember the day forever.

Zachary Miller - Featured at Cleveland’s Green Ribbon Coalition | Spring 2020 As I was living in Cleveland for the summer of 2019, i was fortunate to be able to explore the city and really connect with its architecture, urbanism, and its broader community. Unlike my roots in Western Pennsylvania, I have noticed that the Northeast Ohio region really emphasizes the idea of urban sprawl turned new urbanism -- my home region does not allow for this ideology due to our geographic constraints (hills). This proposal is an attempt to bring the city of Cleveland a much needed mixed-use central shopping districrt -- right on the lake, in the form of a boardwalk.

This space within the first floor of the Cleveland Clinic’s P building was one of the main projects I tackled during my summer internship in Cleveland. The space was previously a pharmacy, and was assigned to be a new space for the radiology department. The Cleveland Clinic Radiology Department is innovating a way to utilize 3D printing and virtual reality to allow surgeons and medical professionals to practice procedures on artificial organs and body parts. They scan and evaluate the organ in question of a specific patient, digitally model it, and 3D print it with accurate conditions. This space was to be a backfill for their advanced 3D printers, equipment, offices, and a virtual reality room with equipment. As seen from the isometric models on the left and the interior renderings on the right, the program was retrofitted into the existing footprint in the P building on the Cleveland Clinic main campus. the Finishes and materials were brought up to speed in my models and renderings.

Though working for smaller firms in the rust belt region has not yielded incredible design work, I have certainly learned many technical skills -- even from very small or simple projects. Pictured here is a construction sheet I completed for a bathroom renovation to a community center in Ravenna, Ohio. the construction drawing process had helped to introduce me to Revit in a professional sense, and had thus helped my technical knowledge for jobs in the future. This project involved field measuring, remodeling digitally in Revit, and then producing a number of drawings and elevations for the city of Ravenna. Though I do indeed enjoy conceptual design work, I have grown quite interested in technical drawing and construction documenting. I look forward to doing much more of the necessary drafting work to get jobs done in the future.

KSU Office of the University Architect| Spring 2019
In my semester interning with the Office of the University Architect, a main project was developing spatial plans and renderings for a proposed esports space within the Kent State University library. The space would allow for competitive gaming between Kent State’s varsity team and an opposing team -- along with support spaces, such as a collaboration hub, coaching booths, and control rooms.

Fairmount Properties Real Estate|Spring 2020
I did an urban design project for Fairmount Properties -- the proposed Fairfax Home & Garden Center on Cedar Ave and 105th St in Cleveland’s Fairfax neighborhood. I complete many site plans, axonometric schematics, and renderings for a possible outdoor home and garden center that would occupy space in an existing parking garage.
