Analytique. Danielle Rivera. First Year Studio. Fall 2012. Four week project.This first project at the beginning of first year studio had an emphasis on hand drawing existing buildings. The building displayed in the analytique above is Sparks building which is located on Pennsylvania State Univeristy’s campus.

Ruffer House. James Cooper. Visual Communications 1. Fall 2011. Two week project.This study of the Ruffer House by Adolf Loos was done in order to explore the spatial relationships of the house as well as the construction of isometric drawings from floor plans.

Gli Uffizi. James Cooper. Visual Communications 1. Fall 2011.This drawing of the Uffizi in Italy explores the possibilities of overlapping multiple drawings in a cohesive and asthetic composition.

Villa Stein. James Cooper. Visual Communications 1. Fall 2011.This drawing of the Villa Stein by Le Corbusier is composed in order to display the steps of drawing construc-tion, as well as the power of shadow casting to create a more readable and dynamic drawing.

The Esherick House. Jodi LaCoe and Reggie Aviles. Visual Communications. Spring 2012. Four week project.This several week study of the Esherick House utilized computer aided means of representation and studied the developmental transition from hand drawing to computer drawing.

Furniture Design. Jodi LaCoe. First Year Studio. Spring 2012. Four week project.Furniture design was a half semester project. The precident for this chair is the # house by Gerrit Reitveld. The use of primary colors along with the chair’s ability to transform into a bench is reminiscent of the house’s ability to transform spaces with its moveable walls.

Design Build. Rebecca Henn. First Year Studio. Fall 2012. Fiveweek project.This group project was a half semester design build where we designed a trophy/sponsor display which also acts a divider, giving the awkwardly shaped room spacial organization by defining and seperating the lobby space from the other programaticuses of the room.

Enoteca. Reggie Aviles. Arch 231 Architectural Design. Fall 2012. Five week project.The design Enoteca was a redevelopment of an existing building. The design was developed through the programs required for selling, tasting, and learning about wine, thus the program divided among three seperate levels with three seperate axis for traffic in each level.

Geodesic Sphere. Eric Sutherland. Arch 203 Architectural Materials. Fall 2012. Four week project. Group project.The sphere displays the use of recycled and renewable materials in building. Other than the small rivets used for connectinos, the sphere was free to construct.

Music Model. Shadi Nazarian. Arch 231 Architectural Design. Fall 2012. One week project. The music model explored the first movement of Mozart’s 15th Sonate using wires and strings to link similar, repeating parts of the composition. The hight of each wire corresponds with the amount of the time the note is held for.

Topographies. Daniel Cardoso. Arch 231 Architectural Design. Fall 2012. Two week project. The topography model used wires and strings, in a similar fashion as the music map, to create an easy adjustable woven landscape.

House for a Musician. Shadi Nazarian. Arch 231 Architectural Design. Fall 2012. Four week project.The House for a Musician design was based off a simple cut and shift. The two similar shapes are inspired by the compositional structure of the first movement of a sonata, where a theme is introduced and then repeated and explored, often in a different key. Thus, the two resulting elements are similar in that they are of the same geom-etry, but of a different key; one being stereotomic and set into the hill, and the other tectonic and cantilevered.

Brooklyn Bridge Museum. Jamie Cooper. Arch 231 Architectural Design. Srping 2013. Nine week project.The Brooklyn Bridge Museum provides the historic D.U.M.B.O area with a beuilding that reflects and preserves its rich history by incorporating into its design the vocabulary of both the Brooklyn and Manhattan bridg-es. Four main longitudinal walls divide the building into three vertical parts: a stereotomic/heavy masonry/load bearing section, mimiking the characteristics of the caissons; a lighter tectonic section, which uses steel to suspednd the front masonry facade,and referencing the steel and tension cables of the bridges; both surrounding the central circulation section.
