DESCRIPTION

I am a graduate out of Texas Tech University with a Bachelor of Science in Architecture. This is my current design portfolio that I will be using in the Graduate school application process as well as applying for internships. The portfolio contains my best work from six design studios (from most recent to first year), my media classes (delineation and digital, and construction technology applications

Studio VI - Study AbroadUrbanism

Project Goal: The [TIER]haus project fo-cused on how the building design could fit into the urban fabric of Berlin, Germa-ny. Located in a small park, the site acts as a buffer between Berlin’s congested city and out door areas. The building’s design creates more outdoor space within the park for the elderly inhabitants to enjoy. The design consists of modular-like units based around two central cores. These modular units are arranged around the cores so that each unit creates large amounts of outdoor space for the unit above. The screen around the build-ing differentiates the public and private space for the residences and the people passing through the park.

Preliminary Massing Models

The project developed through various refinements of the big idea of creating a “tree house” type of building. The design started to incorporate the idea of each unit having outdoor space created by the below units. The issue of making the building fit better into its urban environ-ment arose, so I split the massive build-ing into two separate buildings bridged by a one story public space allowing for the existing courtyard of the touching building to have unobstructed views of the park.

The screen evolved into a “separator” between the public and private spaces of the park. The screen would only be located where the actual living spaces of the units would be. The screen would then be open around the outdoor roof top areas.

Formally, the building is at the same scale as the surrounding buildings. The screen acts as an extension of the building that the site sits next to. The modular units are at the same floor scale of the sur-rounding buildings and protrude at dif-ferent directions creating different lines of axis’s with near the by buildings. The design preserves the park in some sense, creating more space for the parks inhab-itants to congregate and spend the day. The building also respects the courtyard of the existing building not obstructing the view of the park. The building blends in with the surroundings completing the site but not taking away from the life of the park.

[AGRO]polis Wine AgencyStudio V - Building Envelope

Project Goal: The design is based around the cre-ation of a multifunctional, fully integrated and bioclimatic building that creates an architectural ecosystem for the public with on-site vegetation bringing agriculture into the “grey” city. (Agropolis) The building is at the interface of the Unesco World Heritage neighborhood of Bourduex, France and the Industrial Arts district.

Urban Context: The scale of the context and orientation of the site drive the form of my building, allowing optimal angles of sunlight (radiation) to fall on the vegetation to maximize the productivity of the vine growth.

Floor Plans

Page 11: Graduate Architecture Portfolio

The structure is designed to allow as much southeast to northwest sunlight to hit the roof and sides of the building. The primary structure of the reinforced concrete exoskele-ton incrementally gets larger with the greater heights and spans that encase the transpar-ent building envelope.

The envelope is made up of operable glass curtain walls and a system of transparent walls that allow for natural lighting to enter the interior while creating a strong contrast with the stereo-tomic concrete structures.

A waffle slab is used as a key multifunctional structural element, allowing for the lengthy spans of the floor slabs, as well as serving as planters for the vegetation growth. The waffle slabs will serve as a vehicle for a radi-ant heating and cooling system.

The building facilitates a retail space, a wine bar, offices, fermentation and processing area for the grapes that are grown on the building, and exclusive residential space.

Studio IV - Long Span Structure

Project Goal: Our task was to design a new, per-manent roof structure for the Texas Tech Aquatic Center and a redesign of the bathhouse to meet the handicap requirements. The main goal was to design a permanent roof structure, which will cov-er the large span of the pool without a column/pier in the pool area. My design was an iteration of the water molecule, having two distinct parts (steel trusses) connected by one central truss.

Studio IV - Structure

In the primary structure of the long span roof system, I de-cided that a triangular space frame would give me the best support and flexibility for my intended design. The space frames are 10’ in depth on all sides and 1’ steel tubing and 6” tubing for the main trusses. The space trusses meet at a large concrete pier.

Roof Plan

For the exterior roofing and glazing, steel frames hold the glass paneling in place with a membrane protecting the glass from any wind shier and UV exposure. In plan, one can notice that the space frames spans the entire length of the pool on the north side.

Page 18: Graduate Architecture Portfolio

The aquatic center roof structure is primarily supported by the three large space trusses. The space trusses’ dimensions are based on the span to depth ratio of 20:1. The remaining roof structure is sup-ported by steel I beams. The east and west vertical sides are insulat-ed glass. The two center spans are tinted glass.

The model emphasizes the structural ele-ments, and the balloon framing style of struc-ture found in the Berkowitz house, designed by Steven Holl. We constructed the model in the same manner one would construct a real build-ing. After developing a site map, we built a site model with the correct elevation change, and molded concrete footings that are found at the real house. We then constructed the outer skel-eton followed by the floor support, then lastly the walls.

Studio IV - Vertical Structure

Project Goal: Focusing on vertical structure the tower design is based around the concept of Zen. As the occupant ascends to the top of the tower, the space increasingly gets larger, metaphorically reaching a greater state of enlightenment. At the top of the tower, the occupant will have a grande view of cam-pus increasing his “Zen” experience.

Studio III - Programming

Project Goal: The project was a semester long anal-ysis of a “character” and how a buildings program could be developed. We programmed the building design around the characters needs, wants, physical characteristics, mental characteristics, and any other special attribute that might be important to the pro-gram of the building’s design. Several preliminary projects produced our final program and mass of the building. Each element of the building has a story in-tertwined to the specific character’s needs and char-acteristics.

Page 26: Graduate Architecture Portfolio

Process (Part I): After analyzing the characteristics and needs of our character, I took our site and built a wire mod-el showing our character’s movements throughout the site. The wire also represents frequency and points of interest.

Process (Part II): Taking the wire model and studying the character’s movements throughout the site, I modeled obscured space, enclosing the movement. The space modeled created boundaries only.

Page 27: Graduate Architecture Portfolio

Studio III - Programming

Combining projects with two other class-mates, we were required to construct spa-cial enclosures that met our character’s needs. We had to construct our enclosures so that each character’s spaces made sense within the site and the other projects.

Analyzing the previous models, we con-structed a massing model based on our character’s spacial enclosures. The massing model further refines the buildings pro-gram.

The final model, combined the ar-chitectonic elements of the model created through the digital linear compositions and combine it with the metamorphosis elements dis-covered in the transformed barber-shop chair models. I combined the two separate entities to create an ar-chitectonic object with the element of metamorphosis.

[SPACE] AnalysisStudio I - Foundational Design

Project Goal: The project was an introduction to the principles and methods used at various stages of design analysis and synthesis processes. We de-veloped skills in abstraction, transformation, and composition of two and three dimensional design. This project focused on the analysis of space and how a person is connected to that space. I analyzed the space through drawings and models. I studied the space one occupies in the room and the space that is not used in a room.

[SURFACE] AnalysisStudio I - Foundational Design

Project Goal: We shifted to the analysis of surface and space by designing ventilated surfaces in sand. This was a study of how a surface can be ar-chitecturally manipulated. We then combined the ventilated surface with space. We analyzed how space and surface interact with each other and how altering a surface can change a space.

This Page: Supervised by a HKS representative, we took an existing design by the firm and made a complete set of construction documents, from the site plan to its de-tails.

Next Page: Designing our own building, we modeled a comprehensive building focusing on form, structure, envelope, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems. We analyzed and adjusted the building’s design to meet code, and logistical specifications.Group Members: Samantha Peters, Ryan Herr

Page 39: Graduate Architecture Portfolio

Analysis -Structural System & Construction Type In our design proposal we used a Rigid Frame steel structure with an irregular grid pattern. The Building utilizes post and beam type construction. The the floors are constructed of composite steel deck slabs that have no greater spans than 15 feet. The approximate depth of the slabs is 8-12 inches. Piloti be attached to individual base plates on the roof slab of the third floor.

-Estimated Size of Members The size of the members that we used are 17” x 13” columns and 8” deep beams. We found that the 17” x 13” columns were the average sized columns for a building of similar comparison. The 8” deep beams are plausible because of the relatively short spans, 15’ and 12’6. Although for the drive through area a 26” deep beam was needed for the 43’ span. -Fire Resistance Strategy Fire Escapes: 2 located on 1st floor - The main entrance and one located by the core. Fire stairs are both smoke proof an has two hour walls and 1 hour doors. Fire Extinguishers - Drystand Pipes will be installed with in the fire stair to be accessed by the fire department. Each floor will be equipped with a sprinkler system. All structural members will be equipped with a fire rating of two hours.

[URBAN] Research + CollaborationIn Lubbock, Texas there has been a strong push for the revitalization of the downtown district. Propositions to redevelop the decaying downtown area have recently been campaigned to the Lubbock board and adminis-tration.

The College of Architecture at Texas Tech has incorpo-rated this revitalization movement in a graduate urban design studio called “Urban Tech.” The studio’s purpose is to give graduate students a chance to design and re-develop specific blocks of the area to spark excitement throughout the community.

Collaborating with the design studio, my project partner and I built a scaled model of the downtown area. The model will be used for design context studies and profes-sional redevelopment proposals by the city of Lubbock. The model presents a high level of accuracy and craft.Partner: Tyler Zalmanzig
