It is often said, that character and identity are built through life experience. I believe the same can be said about architecture. The character found in a building is a direct reflection of its architect. Consequently, a building’s character is a reflection of the architect’s life experience. Therefore, to understand a building one must understand the origins of the architect.

My name is Jairo (pronounced: hi-ro), I am an entrepreneur and aspiring architect. I am the eldest of four and the first to ever attend college. I am from a modest and hardworking family with a strong history in building. As a young boy, I grew up moving often as my family pursued new work. Sometimes we moved across the neighborhood and sometimes we moved across the country. Nonetheless, I was frequently faced to meet new people and learn new ways.

At the age of sixteen I started my first business, a

joint venture with my father. We went into the business of concrete construction in the west suburbs of Chicago. We started out building patios and driveways for homeowners. Eventually we built parks and other structures for municipalities. My success with the business sparked the interest others to start their own businesses. I have been trusted to start businesses for others along with my guidance and mentorship. After four years of successfully managing and growing the construction firm, I made the decision to pursue a degree in architecture.

My life experiences have taught me to be resourceful and to make the most out of what I have. I’ve learned that hard work and determination can accomplish almost anything. Perhaps the biggest lesson I learned is to take chances and to embrace change. As a result of my life experience, my architectural work is detailed, comprehensive, simple, and different.

I thank you for taking a moment to look through my portfolio. I hope you consider employing my abilities. Should you have any questions or comments please feel free to contact me.

about jairo

The Ravenswood Boathouse is a 21,000SF facility that tailors to sport of boat rowing. The facility is open to the public and features boat storage, a physical training area, classroom, and a community gathering space which can be rented out for events.

design intentWaterfront property in the city of Chicago is a valuable asset that is

enjoyed by many. Therefore, it was important that the boathouse design not impede access to the waterfront. In fact, it was decided early on that the majority of the program be elevated above the waterline to allow for direct access to the Chicago River. The suspended program is supported by the boat storage below and by steel pilotis near the waterfront.

The building is arranged so that the circulation of the user mimic the boating experience on the Chicago River. The dense facade of the building is representative of the typical shrubbery along the river bank. The user is guided through the building along a corridor that runs parallel to river with intermittent views through the facade. The corridor ultimately makes a slight bend at the training area where the user is pointed towards the river to make an more direct connection to the river.

benedictine monastery

The benedictine monastery is located outside of Columbus Indiana amongst the corn field. The complex is home to the benedictine monks that make use of the dormitories, cafeteria, library, cloister and chapter room. Vistors and guests are allowed access to a 2000SF chapel.

design intentAfter studying the life of a monk, it became evident that a monk’s

life is very repetitive and cyclical in nature. Combined with the eternal commitment to serve as a monk, I was inspired to design a building that is representative of the cyclical and continuous ways of the monks.

The monastery is approached from the south via automobile. Guests and visitors make first visual contact of the monastery across the farming field. Entry to the site is made via service road on the northwest corner of the site. At the first glance complex appears to be a series of separated buildings. Upon closer attention, it becomes evident that the complex is connected via a double sided continuos wrapper that defines walls, floors and ceilings. The continuous wrapper moves through the spaces reminding the monks of their eternal and cyclical commitment that they made as monks.

triple zero® highrise

The Triple Zero® highrise is 225m tall and serves as Chicago’s first outdoor high rise. The building is made of primarily residential units that are two and three bedroom. Amenities include common areas and a gymnasium.

design intentThe idea behind the Triple Zero highrise is to create an environment

that connects people to the outside. To do so, the building allows for balconies along the entire perimeter. The balconies are enclosed via an open layer of glass that allows for air circulation. Common areas in the building are used for enclosed gardens and other activities including indoor rock climbing.

The form of the building was developed to maximize the amount of natural daylight into the building. The first step was to bring natural light into the corridors. This was achieved by separating two masses and placing the corridor between the separated masses. The depth and lease span of the units was determined to maximize natural daylight within the unit.

The Chicago Glass Art Center, is an 18,000SF facility that aims to expose and reveal the art of glassblowing to city of Chicago. The facility features a glass art studio, gallery, classroom, event space and a residence for a visiting artist.

design intentThe intent of the Chicago Glass Art Center is to expose and reveal

the art of glass blowing to the general public. The building achieves this goal through its programmatic distribution. The studio and gallery are the exposed and visible to its surrounding. The building is meant to appear as a stainless steel box that opens up to towards the adjacent CTA station.

The facade of the building is a stainless steel louvered skin. The material choice was made to match the Ross Barney CTA train stop across the street which is a progressive building in the area. The louvered skin is intended to appear as a transition from vertical and opaque stainless steel surface. The louvers allow for light into the building where the program demand natural day lighting

precedent projectParc de la Villette by Bernard Tschumi

resultI created a geometric abstraction based on the nine-square structural grid used in the follies of Parc de la Villette. I juxtaposed the grid to address the idea of movement in the park. By creating positive and negative volumes I also addressed the idea of structure versus the envelope which Tschumi uses to create the 35 unique follies in Parc de la Villette.
