PROVIDENCE EXCHANGE STATION
Architectural Design Studio, Spring 2014
An exploration into the use of rhythm in designing space, the initial analysis
of site was completed to observe audible rhythms, like the sound of a split
flap display and the trains; visual rhythms, the regimented pattern of tracks;
and environment, the movement of people and trains the resultant is a grain
and a rhythmic core created by the interactions and layering of rhythm.
The new Exchange Station has been situated to draw people in across
the rhythmic core of the site connecting the rhythms of the site with the
surrounding city. Like the layering of rhythms in music, the Exchange Station
is intended to create spaces that harmonize and spaces that simply coexist.

IMPROVISATIONAL THEATRE
Design Principles Studio, Fall 2013
Theatre provides an opportunity for what could be called integration,
the discarding of masks, the revealing of the real substance: a totality of
physical and mental reactions Jerzy Grotowski
Where the rhythms of space and movement intersect exists an opportunity
to experience a heightened sense of self.
Through the design of space and path, the improvisational theatre becomes
a place of harmony a place where environment and user engage in the
act of discarding and revealing.
The relationship between stage and audience is intimate but detached.
The stage is gradually separated from seating, encouraging the spectator
to become conscious of the gap; conscious of the performance, position
and the dynamic that exists in between.
A ramp is created as an intermission space, serving as both an opportunity
for pause and an object of transmission. It travels from inside to outside,
lower to higher; emerging and revealing itself and the user.

Legends arent just a part of history, they create it. With the introduction of Huntington Ingalls Industries
(NYSE: HII), a 125-year legacy in shipbuilding is reborn. Newport News Shipbuilding and Ingalls Shipbuilding
are world-renowned for building some of the best military ships ever put to sea, including USS Enterprise,
USS Los Angeles, USS America, USS Spruance, USS Kearsarge and USS Cole. No one else does what
Huntington Ingalls Industries does. Because no one else can.

USIPs Priority Countries and RegionsWith over 100 active conflicts around the world, USIP must use its financial and staff resources wisely. Each year, USIP's staff and
Board of Directors determine in which countries the Institute's work can have the greatest impact. We identify conflicts where our
expertise can help, and gauge whether our work would fill a need not being addressed by others.

REBECCA MCGEE
I went to college to become a sneaker designer (or teacher, or psychologist) and of course to keep my
WNBA dreams alive. I came out a graphic designer with a history minor. I spent the next four years living and
working in Washington, D.C. as a senior designer for Qorvis, where I specialized in branding, interactive,
advertising and event design. My passion for learning and design led me to the Rhode Island School of
Design where I am currently pursuing my Masters in Architecture. I believe that good design has purpose,
and curiosity drives my creativity.
