In the Spring of 2012 the Outdoor Space Alliance held a competition asking designers to create a new outdoor concert space on the Williamsburg waterfront located in North Brooklyn. My design of Williamsburg Park will allow visitors an ephemeral experience they will not soon forget. The park is built in a manner that allows it to function as different experiences for different events. The primary function and layout is for an outdoor concert experience. The secondary purposes include turning the park into a recreational area with designated areas for Basketball, Beach Volleyball and Shuffleboard, choosing one night a week for a food truck event in addition to an area for a Farmer’s Market and a Craft & Flea Market.
Visitors will find their curiosity piqued from the very beginning while walking outside the venue along the scrim designed by local artists and the chalkboards to their journey under the green roof structure that provides shade for employees working the main entrance. At the entrance, the visitor will notice a boardwalk that traverses 3 sides of the park servicing numerous food trucks, beverage stands and merchandise booths. The boardwalk sets the theme for the concert experience as a carnival-like experience. In addition to food trucks, the boardwalk leads people to both the deck where people congregate to eat and write on the chalkboards surrounding the inside walls of the venue and purchase merchandise. At the other end of the boardwalk, one will also find a beach that features a volleyball court, bleachers and a sun deck featuring a pool made from a recycled storage container.
Shade structures are plentiful to prevent over-exposure to the elements. Along the boardwalk are a series of semi-circles that allow for extra seating and planting to provide a pleasant aesthetic and to assist in the absorption of rainwater over the mostly non-porous surface of the lot.

Missed Connections ParkScale: Urban DesignDate: Spring 2012Independent Design Exercise for the blog, Urban Design Interventions
I took this project on for my blog, “Urban Design Interventions”. This plot of land is on an extremely well-travelled route, yet the space is fenced off and situated underneath the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway. The location - one of the primary streets utilized to reach the subway in the Williamsburg neighborhood in Brooklyn - seemed perfect for a gathering space with food trucks and other quick conveniences to service a community that is constantly moving,
The Metropolitan/Lorimer subway stop serviced 4.3 million people in 2011 which breaks down to over 12,000 people a day. In addition to food trucks and perhaps a farmer’s market stall or two supplied by the local rooftop farms, I envision space for bike parking due to such little opportunity to securely lock one’s bike up around the station. The bike valet system would become another source of revenue for the city and possibly share some of the space with the bike-share program beginning in the spring of 2013.
A typical day for the commuter may include stopping by the trucks on the way to the subway station where she will leave her bike with the bike valet. She has bought a monthly pass to guarantee a parking spot for her bike because the spaces fill quickly as biking becomes more popular in the city. After parking she grabs a coffee and a bite from one of the food trucks and contemplates buying lunch for later but opts against it. When she returns after works to retrieve her bike she decides to grab some fresh vegetables from a booth selling vegetables grown at the local rooftop farm as well as grabbing a meal from one of the trucks as she knows she does not feel like cooking tonight. Overall, a very convenient place to visit on her way home from work.
Finally, the reason for the name ”Missed Connections’ Park. Williamsburg is one of the youngest neighborhoods in the city, demographically speaking. The community is extremely tech-friendly and the internet plays an enormous role in their lives. A popular site for them is the “Missed Connecions’ division of Craigslist. “Missed Connections” is a forum where one can write about a stranger they are interested in and where they saw this person in hopes that the person will see the ad and reach out to the person who placed it.

The competition site of approx. 7,400 sqm is located in the Medina of Fez, which has been listed as a UNESCO world heritage site since 1981. Place Lalla Yeddouna is a strategic location at the nucleus of this oldest part of Fez. The Medina is a mosaic of small-scale, modest, sand-colored houses, and its endless labyrinth of narrow streets, where one can find still preserved as a living museum, an antique mode of life, full of history.
The area of Place Lalla Yeddouna, where the city was founded on the two banks of the main river in Fez (“Oued Al Jawahir”), used to be one of the key links between the two sides of the old city.
The competition challenged us to create a vibrant mixed-use urban hub for the community as well as visitors to the Medina the area of Place Lalla Yeddouna.
The site is expected to become a major catalyst for artisan development, with spaces for educational programs, residences, artisan production, shops, restaurants, cafés and other services. The new complex will support activities for youth and adults.
With its unique architectural character representing the regional building tradition and with its surrounding urban fabric, excellent accessibility and functionality, Place Lalla Yeddouna is expected to be a cultural site exemplary of our time and the region, and a stimulator and generator for the development of other projects in Fez, its region and Morocco.

Preservation: Local Materials, Local Artisanship & Local Labor
Local Materials, Local Artisanship & Local LaborThe restoration process will involve the participation of the local residents, artisans and craftsmen. Regionally sourced materials will be used by local craftsmen employing traditional building techniques. This approach will fuse the traditional artisanship with a contemporary design that respects and pays tribute to the cultural and architectural traditions of the Medina.
Local LaborLocal laborers will be utilized as much as possible as they are knowledgable in local construction and restoration techniques as well as the challenging work environment of the Medina.
Local ArtisansThe copper and brass-smiths of Fez possess an intimate knowledge of the artistic techniques used to design ironwork grills and other architectural elements. A local artist will be invited to design the welded copper facade of the new hotel.
WallsTraditionally crafted of sandstone masonry and covered with a stucco surface. Locally trained masons will assist in the construction of the project, guaranteeing the quality of the work.
Preservation: Local Materials, Local Artisanship & Local Labor
Doors Locally made doors have a very distinct look. They are made of wood and are decorated with carved stucco and tiling around the doorknobs. Again, local artisans will be hired to recreate the intricate woodwork commonly found on doors in the area.
WindowsUse of wooden shutters for privacy and shading on the interior and decorative ironwork grills on the exterior.
FountainsLarge fountains typically covered in a mosaic of “Zellij” tile patterns and embedded into the floors or walls of structures.
Exposed Wood CeilingsCeilings featuring exposed structural wood beams and often decorated with carvings.
Mosaic Tile CeilingsTypically domed ceilings decorated in mosaic “Zellij” tile patterns.

RESTAURANTS: Consumers or Producers?
Typical restaurants are masters of consumption. They not only consume food, but also energy and water on a massive scale. And, by association, they consume vast amounts of land in order to produce the food they prepare. CURE(D) flips this standard model on its head. Rather than being a model of consumption, CURE(D) is a model of production. CURE(D) integrates and optimizes every phase of production and operations through a cohesive design strategy. By doing so, CURE(D) can potentially produce all of its produce, energy and water on-site, resulting in huge financial and environmental savings.
ENERGY
CURE(D) first minimizes its energy needs by limiting its dependency on heating and cooling in food preparation. For its remaining energy needs, CURE(D) harnesses power from the sun. CURE(D) manages to harness 100% of its energy demand from the sun even in cloudy Seattle.
WATER
CURE(D) harvests water from fog and rain and re-uses 100% of its water at least once.
LAND
CURE(D) utilizes multiple surfaces to grow food aeroponically. It uses an interior wall, an exterior wall and the roof.

For city-dwellers, growing your own vegetables is considered a luxury. For those who don’t have terraces, rooftops or gardens, we present the AEROWALL, a vertical, self-contained aeroponic system for growing vegetables year-round.
Unlike commercial aeroponic systems, the AEROWALL is designed specifically for highly-visible residential and small commercial applications. As a modular system, it is designed to go anywhere you want to put it. For some it might be a staple appliance in the kitchen, for others it may be a radical sculptural element in the living room. You choose.
The AEROWALL allows you to grow what you want, when you want, where you want.
Forget about buying local. Grow hyper-local.
