The school provides a unique approachto the learning experience. The open learning spaces encourage studentsto learn in a social setting, while providing the necessary instructional learning centers. All the school activities become a juxtaposition to the eye andcreate an optimal social learningenvironment. The school’s central gym becomes a landmark for the surrounding neighborhood and encourages community functions.

Kern Park

North/South Site Section

Working with the existing topography to create a graceful manipulation of earth for the purpose of entertainment and socialization, the park becomes a central hub for east side residents of the Milwaukee area and boosts neighborhood morale.

Keeping the integrity of the landscape by incorporating pre-existing pathways and foliage. Foliage provides privacy and optimal acoustics. Slight manipula-tion of the earth creates a variety of social opportunities for the surrounding residents.

Cohousing Creating an Integrative Work and Living Space for the Young Entrepreneur

Cohousing for the young entrepreneur is a design strategy that will influence human performance in 21st Century Architecture. Creating a space that intregrates both realms of life, living and working, creates a new type of leading-edge design environment for collaboration and innovation. Water is used as the primary design tool to create moments for gathering and collaboration. Juxtaposi-tion of movement between floors is another tool used to provide visual stimulation and motivation. Left: LED interac-tive window panels allow entrepreneurs to display and contemplate work. Central fireplace creates social interac-tion through comfort and circular placement. Right: Displays connectivity between living and working spaces. Lap pool creates an interactive moment, through visual appeal and stimulation, for entrepreneurs to engage socially.

Cohousing

Top: Detail of heavy greenwall with delicate pocket doors.Left: Detail of individual working pod spaces. Swinging doorsopen for use, creating privacy between pods.

A collaborative space is created with the second floor lap pool. The edges of the pool serve as a bar to promote interaction between those swimming and those working. Individual pod spaces are separated by glass and an elevated floor, but still allow views into the collaborative space for visual stimulation.

Lowered central space is used for intimate collaboration. Lighted wall can be used for presentations and display. Right: Double-sided library creates a boundary between the collaborative and private space. Left: Elevated areas become personal pods for individual work and thought.

The lap pool, which descends into the first floor, creates the ultimate social interaction. Interactive panels are placed along walls for presentation and display. Individual work spaces look out on to the collaborative space for visual stimulation. Greenwall creates a relaxing, calming environment. Furniture is mobile so the entrepreneurs can create the space.

View from the bridge connecting the living quarters to the collaborative and quiet spaces. Furniture faces each other to promote social interaction. Beyond is the double-sided library where the entrepreneurs may choose a quieter space versus the louder social space.

Library Space

View down length of space. Water is the central design tool for collaboration as well as visual connectivity.

View within the library. Stairs lead to a quiet area for individual study, while the central space creates a small central hub for intimate collaboration. Beyond is a bridge connecting the collaborative space to the personal quarters. Descending water from the pool connects first and second floor, as do the views through the open space between the two floors.

Model Building

Site Model: Front facade deviates from surrounding buildings’ design fabric, creating a landmark for Downer Avenue. The protruding top floor creates protected space beneathfor vistors to engage socially prior to entering.

Discovering the art of architectural tectonics through a series of projects resulting in an organizational scheme using the word “linear”. Left: Drawing, based off of a given city block, using various tones, line weights, and line types. Middle: Developing an armature based upon various section cuts throughout the city block drawing, creating the foundation for a campus plan design. Right: View of armature using linear tectonics.

The linear tectonic strategies from the armature and fragment were used to create a designated auditorium space within the campus plan. The auditorium space illustrates linearity and the thin versus thick facade further emphasizes the word "linear”.

East view provides ultimate views towardsLake Michigan. North lighting creates unique shadows on South inner wall and floor.

East view retains the integrity of the already existing facade. Lower level provides space for contemplation and relaxation.

Designing an opening to the iconic War Memorial building along Milwaukee’s downtown primary location, Lake Michigan. Using model making as a design tool to understand light, proportion, significance, space, and materiality.
