October 30, 2012 To Whom It May Concern: This is a extremely positive letter of recommendation for Haley Zhou. Haley Zhou has worked with Diamond Schmitt Architects for two work terms. During his first work term from January to April 2011, Haley worked on the Vaughan Master Plan and for his second work term, from May through August 2012, Haley worked with my team on the Global Innovation Exchange building, the new $72 million School of Business and Economics for Wilfred Laurier University in Waterloo. Haley Zhou’s participation through the design development phase on this 220,000sf building has been a major asset to our team. Haley’s fluid skills on REVIT software and his remarkably mature design acumen were a significant contribution in developing many key areas in this complex building, notably the 4 storey atrium, 300 seat lecture hall with cafe below, 150 and 75 seat case study rooms as well as the multi storey entrance vestibule. Haley’s skills in complementary software programs helped our team develop organic ceilings that dovetailed with some significant structural cantilevers. His ability to read consultant drawings and understand the range of issues informing a design solution was noteworthy. Haley not only has significant capabilities in design and technical proficiency but he is also a natural team player with excellent communication skills all of which make him a pleasure to work with. Haley has also demonstrated that he is 100% reliable in turning around any deliverables he has taken on and he brings a graphic sophistication to all that he does. It is unusual for a student of architecture placement to have such a broad set of skills. Without hesitation I endorse Haley as a promising and passionate emerging architect who is gifted in many aspects of this profession. We hope that he will join Diamond Schmitt again in the future. Sincerely, DIAMOND SCHMITT ARCHITECTS

Studio Work2009-2012

University of Waterloo

The Honors Bachelor of Architectural Studies degree at the University of Waterloo provides the foundation of skills, knowledge, judgment and practical experience required for subsequent professional studies in architecture.

Though the Academic Plan is pre-professional, it is fully dedicated to imparting to students the culture and practice of design. Design is a synthetic activity. To do it well and serve the needs of the individual and society requires an extremely broad education.

Students acquire an understanding of the workings of so-ciety and culture, of the principles of physics, of materials and techniques of construction, of the human interaction with the natural and built environment, of historical pro-cess, of critical thought and of the diverse forms of creative expression

Honeycomb Hotel2A Studio Ryszard Sliwka

Cambridge, Ontario

Revitalization of Downtown Cambridge with the theoretical proposal of a 50 room hotel. Amenity spaces such as spa, restaurant and gym along with support facilities were provided in the plan.

A honeycomb cell is one of natures’ most effi cient structures and uses the least amount of material for maximum structural effi ciency. It became an investigation into the structural ca-pabilities of the honeycomb structure and its relationship to a hospitable human space.

A minimized living space that encourages a sense of collective living and the usage of public spaces.

Combining geometry and scale to defi ne public vs private space. The scale of the structure begins to inform of scale of social spaces.

Hotel Room Module

Hotel Room Rendering

Plan Axonometric

The heart of the project comes from a three-hexagonal module

that includes two individual rooms and a pair of bathrooms

that split in the lower hexagon. This keeps the purity of geom-

etry within the rooms and a modular/compact way of living.

Several landscape strategies are incorporated within the zoo.

The salt marsh addresses the fact the site is a designated snow

dump for the City of Toronto during the winter. The high saline con-

tent that would otherwise go into the freshwater river and disrupt

its eco system will now be retained and fi ltered.

The stormwater runoff from highway and nearby neighborhood

causes fl ooding in the region, this comes from a lack of terrain

that retains water. A series of terraced constructed wetlands helps

absorb rainwater and adds richness to the local ecosystem.

A cranberry fi eld requires very specifi c conditions to thrive and a

large amount of water must be used since fl ooding the fi eld is

necessary for its growth and collection. This works hand-in-hand

with the rest of the system and uses water retained within the site.

Moss Park Cooperative3A Studio Philip Beasley

Moss Park, Toronto

There are currently 132 high rise buildings under construction in Toronto, the most in North America, ahead of Mexico City and New York.

The incomprehensible rate at which Toronto is building unsustainable glass-skinned condo towers are raising questions on what the urban future for Toronto will be. The aim of the studio was to imagine a mixed use building that incorporated an elementary school, commercial program and residential areas in one development.

This model of development creates a more integral community that will be built and avoids the segregation of buildings that leads to unsafe and ineffi -cient neighborhoods.

The site is located at the edge of the urban expansion of Toronto and is sit-uated besides a designated protective public park. The typical tower looms over its neighbors, while this projects takes a careful consideration for its surroundings and begins a formal contortion that maximizes sunlight, views and circulation system that helps build a sense of community.

*The physical model of this project was shown at the year end review

A court yard typology is contorted into a fi gure 8 in order to allow more sunlight and more rooms with view to the

surroundings. The block is also chopped at an angle facing to form a terraced building facing the park. The terrace

allows for more outdoor green space for apartments.

There are four types of bedrooms and they are organized on a three fl oor confi guration. The rooms are staggered

in order to create balconies for each apartment.

The podium contains the a mix of commercial and cultural programs. Major spaces (Gymnasium/ Auditorium) are

organized in the center of the plan and allows for a 24 hour usage rate by both the school and the public.

Competitions2010-2012

“The Competition has been a defi ning characteristic of architec-

ture for centuries. Without competitions to spur creativity, many

great buildings in our history would have never been realized

We are in the profession because we are passionate about what

we do. Often times the “real world” can be suffocating as there

are client meetings, codes to abide by, budget constraints and

deadlines. The freeness of a competition should be a welcomed

breath of fresh air in the sense that you are truly designing for

yourself.

And, the results of competitions, not just the winners, increase

the understanding of the profession. Within the architecture

realm, other fi rms and students can learn from the various ap-

proaches. But, probably one of the greatest things about com-

petitions is that they provide a way for the non-architect to relate

to what we do.

The power of an idea should never be taken for granted. Antonio

Sant’Elia and the Italian Futurists understood that their designs

would not be built – but that wasn’t the point. Their drawings and

sketches were channels for the thinkers to depict a new urban im-

age of revolutionary ideas. It was an expressive way to get people

to start thinking and challenge the conventional.”

-Karen Cliento

Detroit, Michigan

As Detroit struggles with its recovery, urban food deserts (areas with no access to healthy fresh food) becomes an issue the city is trying address.

Neighborhoods has began setting up communi-ty garden as alternatives, this project combines a much needed local school with a community center that aims to becomes both a manufactur-ing and distribution point in the community for healthy. The aim is to start to create a compre-hensive system that starts with the education of local children and encourage a healthier lifestyle.

Co-operative Education is one of the keystones of the Architec-ture program at the University of Waterloo.

Beginning in second year, students alternate 4-month school terms with 4-month paid terms working for architects and designers. The Co-operative Program allows students to experi-ence fi rst hand the nature and variety of the work the profession offers. Work terms also make it possible to acquire a wide array of specifi c skills, discipline and experience which are placed in a balance with the more exploratory and speculative work which goes on in the Design Studio program. The benefi t of diverse job and cultural experience come to virtually every student. Most spend at least one work term outside Canada and no one does all his or her work terms at one fi rm or in one city. This brings an extraordinary variety and maturity to the senior classes.

Vaughan Metro CentreJanuary - May 2011

Diamond and Schmitt Architects

Vaughan is a city north of Toronto that has expanded rapidly. Key infra-structures are already underconstrcution in order to connect it to downtown Toronto, including an extension of the subway system. The Vaughan Metro-politan Centre is at the terminus stop of the subway station and a master plan was developed to make Vaughan a thriving city.

Working with Urban Strategies Inc, a plan was developed to include a mix of residential, business, commercial and cultural buildings. A central park acts as the focal point and separation to the northern residential and southern commercial districts. A horseshoe bus terminal is connected underground to the subway terminal currently under construction.

I was part of a four person team that included Principle Mike Szabo and my main responsibilities included the 3D modeling as well as In depth analysis and options done for a 400 000 sq ft offi ce tower, above ground bus terminal connecting an currently under construction subway station and the reloca-tion of a major retailer at the podium of an offi ce block.

Toronto Zoo, Toronto

Acting as a cultural center for the Toronto Zoo, the pavilion and exhibit be-comes a show piece of Korean culture.

Rethinking the traditional Korean pavilion, the project incorporated a shut-tered roof to reveal a time tested and intricate framing system.

Sustainability considered with locally source wood and stone. Earth-tubes laid out under neath the site regulate temperature and bring in fresh air

A traditional three-temple courtyard layout is followed with an emphasis on central axis and the experience of

proceeding through the forecourt with a refl ecting pond and traditional pavilion.

An underground exhibiton space allows for fl exible interior space capable of hosting a variety of cultural events.

Water is used as an element of separation to act as a threshold to the courtyard. It is also present at the boundary

of the pavilions and further enhances the centrality of the plan.

A range of traditional materials are used and a copper slat roof emulates the traditional form of a Korean Temple.

The louver allows for a view through and reveals the intricacies of a construction method perfected by time.
