Villa Savoye Transformation
This project began with a series of diagramatic
studies of Le Corbusiers Villa Savoye and Carpenter
Center. Through these diagrams were to analize specific
conceptual, architectural, geometrical, and material
conditions that we discovered through both readings
and visiting the Carpenter Center.
We were then each assigned one of four sites in
which we were to reconfigure the Villa Savoye to fit our
site.
Our design must preserve the critical design concepts,
elements and organizing principles discovered through
our research and diagrams. It also had to have all of the
same programatic elements of the existing house. The
area of each room should be as close as possible to the
original with a 10%.
5
The site that I was assigned was in the
shape of an L with a building beside it.
When analyzing the site I noticed that the
shape of the building was similar to that
of the Carpenter Center and the L-shape
was similar to that of the lung shapes of
the Carpenter Center. So I decided to
incorporated this into my design.
Next I establish a grid system. I did this
by taking the corner square that the site
created and copied it up and to the side
creating a more proportional site. I then
used this to create a sub grid.
6
STEP TWO:
Took this square and copied it up and to the side inorder to create a more proportional site.
STEP THREE:
Next I created a grid system inorder to create the shape of my building and to layout columns.
7
STEP ONE:
Noticed that the corner of the L-Shaped sited created a perfect square.
8
I then used this sub grid to created the
lung shape for my design. I did so by
connecting multiple radius. This lung
shape can be seen on all floors of my
design.
The top study model is of the Carpenter center showing the two lungs with a cube as a core.
Next model shows the two primary circulation in the Villa Savoye. The experiencial ramp and the easy access staircase.

Outdoor Café
Our assignment was to design an Outdoor café
located at the Christian Science Center. The purpose
for this café was to create a second gathering place to
balance the popular circular fountain at the north-east
end of the site.
Our designs had to open up views, to encourage
people watching for those who do not choose to sit at
the café, and to create alternative movement patterns
across the site.The café was to have primarily exterior
seating, with a small glass enclosed interior seating area
and service counter.
After visiting the site I noticed that there are two
different characteristics to the either ends of the site. To
the west of the site is more residential and to the east is
the city.
22
So for my design I wanted to have this view
that opens up to the Mother Church. To make the
Mother Church the main focus and to restrict the
views to the city and the congestion of the city
My design consists of a single metal frame
that wraps around this view to the Mother Church. I
made the front of the building lower which not only
allows for clearstory windows but also creates this
precession of short to taller space.
This is a diagramatic model that shows my idea of the structure shown by museum board wrapping around this view to the Mother Church shown by the pink foam.
This is a second study model which shows the proccess and is very similar to my final design.

Boston Ballet SchoolAnnex
This Boston Ballet School Annex is located on
Warren Street in the South Boston. It is to house, for a
period of up to four months, a notable visiting dance
artist. Who will select six students who will study and live
within the annex.
In addition to the residential component of this
annex, it included a multi-purpose room that would be
used as a practice/rehearsal studio space or for small
performances or exhibits. Also, another smaller studio
and a shared common room for the residents would be
included into the 2,800 square foot program.
During our design process we were to consider the
size and hierarchy of these components.
