PROJECT 1VISITING CRITIC STUDIO- BROOKLYN BRIDGE PARK, NY

Proposal: Mixed Use / Residential Complex Preserve / add to views along the waterfront Create amenities for interaction that enhances the thriving culture of the pier area.Program: 170-225 Hotel Rooms 150-180 Apartment or Long Term Units Restaurants 400,000 sf site Parking Park Support Facilities Pier 1 Hotel and Residential Development

The Pier 1 Hotel and Residential Development is a mixed-use project along the developing riverfront aimed at sustaining the quality of the current park, while simultaneously working to provide residences and commercial program to improve the every day live within the Brooklyn Bridge area.

The Goal of the proposal focuses on the conflict of the site as its location is caught between the urban structures behind it and the unique conditions of the existing park. Therefore it responds to the rolling landscape and lifts the hotel up on a plinth area allowing for public movement throughout the ground floor and private movement above within a median of green slope. The proposal also draws directly from the parks material pallet and incorporates a forest-like screen providing a filtration of light into the units while still allowing for the prominent view of lower Manhattan. This design takes directly from the idea of “park” and creates a green environment for living in an otherwise completely saturated urban environment.

PROJECT 2

YEAR: 2011

VISITING CRITIC STUDIO- BROOKLYN AFFORDABLE HOUSING

Proposal: Transform vacant warehouse in the DUMBO area into mixed use and residential complex that allows for views of lower manhatthan while still preserving the look of surrounding urban conditions.

29 Jay Street, Brooklyn NY

The improved design for 29 Jay Street in Brooklyn aims to accommodate housing and retail in the DUMBO area that is otherwise relatively uninhabited by tourist as well as local life. This design acknowledges the current city typology of the surrounding buildings as well as borrows from the development in the area for contemporary housing and public life. The retail space on the ground floor would potentially pose as a sort of attraction, populating the area and advertising the unique qualities of the upper floors where apartment units reside. The upper floors would consist of 1-2 bedroom units with penthouse suits above looking out over the waters of lower Manhat-tan as well as the Brooklyn Bridge overpass.

PROJECT 3SYRACUSE COMMUNITY HOUSING ( INSPIRED BY OMA )

Proposal: Residential Complex 1, 2, 3 and 4 person family housing units spread equally Allow for interaction and private spaces within the site

Program: 9 Single Units 12 2-Person Units 12 3-Person Units 15 4-Person Units Theatres Parking Multi-Family Housing for Downtown Syracuse

These multi-family housing units were inspired by qualities held within OMA’s project on the Nexus World Housing. The project seeks to mimic the surrounding mountainous landscape while simultane-ously providing efficient and private housing for smaller families. The Nexus design, similar to this condition is grouped within a very tight area so the challenge was to fit the maximum amount of living units while attempting not to crowd the site with program

The downtown Syracuse multi-family housing seeks to provide equally efficient living space that is raised off of the ground plain so as to allow car and pedestrian traffic to flow below. The units are hung off of two reinforced concrete walls finished in bamboo to separate the egress flow from and to the units from the static living spaces and also allow the hollow space to become the placement area for exposed electrical and plumbing systems. Below the units is located a theatre dedicated to each communal wall and connected access to the next to allow for continuous and safe egress.

PROJECT 4

LIFE’S REPETITION: Syracuse Housing Tower/ Market

Proposal: Phase 1: Using patterns in precedence study and mimic structures that build on life as a repetitive process. Phase 2: Utilize excess parking lots within the downtown Syracuse area and transform them into community living and culture rich environments.

SYRACUSE HOUSING MARKET

Using a porous and polkadot-like pattern that mimicked a similar pattern applied by the 0-14 Tower in Dubai, the project looks to allow for a ground level open market area while housing local families above. The pattern becomes a stretched linear form meant to reflect the day-to-day routines gone through by families with jobs and children attending school. It shows how these patterns can alternate courses however remain similar to ones comfort zone where they live. The facade flows from the side to the ground plain allowing for the building to become one with and relate to the hardscape of the direct site and surrounding urban community. The market below allows for commu-nal access as well as private access above and is located within an ideal area of the downtown food district of Syracuse.

MACFlo Museo di Arte Contemporanea e Fashion

The city of Florence has become socially divided and scattered, driving Florentine life outside the historic center to make wayfor tourist attractions and a completely de-saturated experience of Italian culture. The city struggles to uphold its value as a cultural icon through the additions of a new theatre and high-speed rail station that attempt to bring Florence back into the thriving world of the European Union.

MACFlo attempts to connect the different attributes of the city and combine them into what we are calling the “Triangle of the Arts.” This triangle will virtually connect the art and architecture of three vital areas within the city. It will connect the historic district, and direct area around the Duomo, holding the values of Florentine roots and history, the new Opera House, which incorporates art, music, education and entertainment in a location where tourists seldom travel, and MACFlo. MACFlo will be comprised of a museum for rising contemporary art and fashion, the headquarters (think tank) for AMO’s Florence branch, and a partially risen parkway that not only connects the different nodes of program, but would be used in exhibitions and shows for fashion and contemporary art.

MACFlo and the urban triangle combines Europe’s performing arts, fine arts and fashion into a center that, in junction with Foster’s designfor a high speed rail station, can rekindle the values of Florentine culture through direct contact with the flow of traffic in and out of the city. It can feed off the exhibitions and advertisements for rising and existing art throughout Europe, and through the direct review and selection by the AMO think tank, will be able to acknowledge the history and focus on the contemporary future of the city.

Program:

AMO Think Tank: - Reviews and selects art and fashion - Coordinates exhibits, shows, festivals from the city center to MACFlo - Advertises historical and contemporary art and annual shows for Europe

Museo di Arte Contemporanea e Fashion: - Performs in the manner of a museum, however allows for the growth of a new city center through exhibiting fashion and new ideas or art and culture throughout the site. - Gallery spaces for viewing.

Park Connection Catwalk: - Connects program of Think Tank and MACFlo together through a highline-like catwalk that pulls the program together through exhibition and sequential experience - Allows for the advertisement along railways and Foster Plaza.

PROJECTS 6 + 7 FREELANCE WORK (Collaboration with Weston and Cade Halkyard)

Proposal1 (Left): Renovate a 525 sf basement from storage space to a new art studioProposal2 (Right): Series of stone walls that perform as retaining walls while simultaneously providing new planting space

Northampton and Montague Massachusetts

The renovation project consisted of clearing out and repairing the decaying woodwork and walls of the basement. A semi-glosswater-proofing paint was applied to the plaster walls and concrete flooring as well as a visual touch up of aesthetic artwork.

The stone wall project was a 6 month effort to transform a simple grass hillside with few plants to a flourishing terrace garden.The goal was to utilize existing rocks from the property and construct walls that would hold back the hard soil as well as providespace and unique locations for various flowers and plants.
