Hospital and Public Space in Boston, MassachussettsThe proposed hospital is located in Boston adjacent to a newly developing greenspace above the underground Interstate 93. This greenspace above the interstate extends the connected parks and greenspaces in the city known as the “Emerald Necklace.” The hospital site plays an im-portant role in the transititon from the residential North End to the business district downtown.

The hospital’s ground floor (left) con-sists of an emergency room, food court, waiting area and a pharmacy/lab space. The top four floors (far left) consist of patient rooms and nurs-ing stations centered around an atri-um to maximize natural daylighting.

The site plan for the hospital (right) shows where the elevated Interstate 93 used to be until it was relocated under-ground and turned into a public space on top. The entrance to the hospi-tal faces the park and creates a public space for interaction between people in the hospital while opening views to the Rose Kennedy Parkway green space.

Boston Site Plan7

The pedestrian entrance is clearly identified and will be the most prominent entrance, being located on the side that faces the newly developed green area. The public space will be set back from the street and open to people passing by for a chance to eat at the dining area and encourage social interaction on the ground floor. This space will also serve as a destination for those work-ing inside the hospital to have access to fresh air and interaction with others while taking a break.

A Wellness Center in Peñasco, New MexicoPeñasco, New Mexico is a small farming town located in a valley among the Sangre de Christo Moun-tains. Recently, the community wellness center, SPOT (Strengthening Pride - Optimism - Trust) and locally known as, “the everything place for the Peñasco area,” was closed due to financial rea-sons at the Holy Cross Hospital in Taos. The design of a new facility will expand the health and social services offered to include communication media access, laundry facilities that utilize ef-ficient water management to support an on site fruit orchard and a market for the sale and distri-bution of local produce while aiming to strengthen and sustain community wellness in Peñasco.

The perspective of the courtyard space (left) shows the farmer’s market pavillion and the clothes washing section with a gathering area inbetween. In New Mexi-co, gathering areas such as courtyards that receive ample sunlight, especially in colder months, are important and are sometimes traditionally referred to as a “resolana”.

Peñasco Site Plan11

This section through the proposed wellness center shows the clothes wash-ing area on the left and the farmer’s market space on the right. In the center is a gath-ering area for people to air dry clothes and view goods for sale in the market. The two parts of the wellness center are brought together with the social space inbetween.

Stacking Stool ConstructionRecreating Alvar Aalto’s Stacking Stool 60 required research into the theory, construction, and the purpose behind the design of the chair. It also required extensive trial and error to replicate a stacking stool to the exact dimensions of Stacking Stool 60.

Multigenerational Housing, Opelika AlabamaThis project is an exploration in how Habitat for Humanity affiliates can serve the wider variety of fam-ily types in need of affordable housing today. Single mothers with young children, retired seniors, and multigenerational families can all be better served by something other than a 3-bedroom house.

Section Showing Senior and Large Family LivingThe competition guidelines called for a 1,070 square foot house. Upon research of the living conditions in Opelika and growing housing trends in the United States, we decided to pursue a type of housing that could help solve some of the challenges of today. The Habitat for Humanity project is a competition project. The work presented is the prod-uct of work done by myself and my team members, Adam Levete and Amanda Peterson.

This type of housing allows families to buy only what they need in a house. A senior citizen living alone can purchase the small-est first floor flat and a larger, established family can buy the living space with bed-rooms upstairs. This proposal explores three common living scenarios, but can also accommodate many more family situations

Alabama Impact Crater and Science CenterThe Alabama Impact Crater and Science Center is a proposal for the town of Wetumpka in Alabama. It serves as an educational and research facility for residents and people study-ing the local impact crater site. The Alabama Impact Crater and Science Center is part of a string of museums and interpretive centers that run from North Alabama down to the coast.

The Alabama Impact Crater and Science Center is the design proposal for the Alabama Forrestry As-sociation’s 2011 Wood Competition. This proposal received an Honorable Mention in the competition for the design, drawings and craft of the basswood model. The chosen proposals will be used by the Elmore County Economic Development Authority to help envision a science center in Wetumpka.
