This project was unique in that it was our firm’s first international project. It was a very short time frame and I was involved from schematic design through construction documents. The design is intended to feel light and airy, adding
to the comfortability of overhead structures in an earthquake. The butterfly roofs also help naturally ventilate the spaces and allow water collection and control. The entry opens up into the landscape and has views of the soccer field.

This is a representation of the construction document phase of a combination of new housing units and a school-to-loft renovation. Revit was utilized from design development through to construction
administration. Even material choices were made and displayed via Revit. These are currently under construction as part of multi-family housing units in their third phase in Pittsburgh.

Homewood Senior Housing called for a large 4 story complex on a small urban block and was to surround an existing cafe. Square footages, building program, program correlation, etc. was imagined through sketches via teams of upper-level staff members. My part included assembling these ideas into 3-D
format, color coding certain functions and giving the building visual tangibility (left column). After weeks of development, I was able to make later decisions on the retail curtain wall (A) and stair tower shading (B) schematic designs.

This was my first involvement at Rothschild Doyno Collaborative in Pittsburgh. It was the study of the dis-tressed community of Braddock, PA and was a great learning experience. Both are examples of RDC’s “sketchbook process”. We studied the community and broke it into 4 areas, each of which had their
own specific issues and site forces. I built the model and diagrammed it to show the contextual topics at hand. This page also shows buildings in good condi-tion, questionable, or slated for demolition. Also we documented points of interest, intersection nodes, building’s visual impacts, and areas of empty lots.

Pictured on this page are design presentation boards for a client who want-ed an addition to their current school. We had a little bit of design freedom to carry through on the sun shading and rhythmic
windows and wall spandrels. I helped with the schematic sketches and then modeled and photoshopped the final designs. Since the program calls for flex space in a box, we focused only on the exterior of the addition.

Neighborhood Redevelopment Larimer Neighborhood Pittsburgh, PA
“Green Connections” intends to connect neigh-borhoods, people and places in a sustainable fashion. There are 5 key areas that make up the larger concept of our design consisting of: an urban transit node(A), civic space(B), common interest housing(C), central linear park(D), an urban farm(E).
The urban node is connected to the main artery into downtown. The civic space is the focal meeting point for the region. The common interest housing connects tenants via gardening interests. The central linear park is the connection strip for neighbor interaction. The urban farm is community driven.
Housing for people with an interest in garden-ing or caring for plants. Houses are prefab-ricated with patented “QuaDror” bracing and equipped with green roofs. They can be reconfigured or even raised on stilts for parking and gardening underneath the house.
2 CIH blocks of the 3 are on the edge of the site and serve as gateways into the community. Those 2 gateway housing blocks have the units on stilts, allowing unobstructed views into the neighborhood (seen in the rendering below).

Bike Racing Velodrome Boston, Massachusetts
This was a partner project design of a stadium in Boston. We visited the city and the site along the Charles river and came to conclusions on what we thought were the conceptual influences:
• Boston is a “city of firsts”• Movement of people• Flow of the river• Motion of the bikes in action• Language of the urban landscape

Bike Racing Velodrome Boston, Massachusetts
There were numerous design intentions. We wanted to explore an arena that doesn’t necessarily portray a “circular” event from the exterior. The wavy roof canopy covers the interior and exterior spaces, blurring the threshold between the two. The roof is supported on 8 mega structures to give the canopy
a floating appearance. It’s gesture portrays the language of a landscape while the entire site is flattened with a mixture of pavers to elevate and give focus to the floating canopy. A crosswalk connection is established from the neighboring Cambridge area right into the main entrance.
Grass rectangles remain where the trees previously existed and have been cut to stumps for seating.

The site has been flattened and made obstruction free putting more emphasis on the undulating roof above you. The canopy’s purpose is to move you throughout the site and to blend the distinction of being indoors or out.

Bike Racing Velodrome Boston, Massachusetts
With this design project the main constraint was the standardized velodrome track. We looked at many precedents and noticed that nearly all velodrome stadiums have a circular or oval form portrayed from the exterior. We looked at
this as an opportunity to explore what it would be like to represent an event without being bound by its main constraint, visually. We also intend to draw curiosity from passer-byers via the roof’s intriguing form.

The roof spans 360 feet in the longest direction and 270 feet in it’s width. The trussing is composed of 10’x10’ grid in plan and the depths range from 2’-18’. They are sandwiched by insulated polycarbonate to create a SIP system that is semi-translucent and can house all HVAC and electrical systems.

Children’s Learning Center Arboretum - Ames, Iowa
This project required a learning center and retreat for 60 children (ages 0-5) allowing them to learn about nature and sustainability. The program consists of 2 separate “learning wings” that are joined at the
center with a 2 story common space. The south curtain walls slide open to merge the indoor & outdoor spaces. The landscape radi-ates into 4 learning zones: Wind Zone (1), Fire Zone (2), Water Zone (3) and the Earth Zone (4).

Each learning wing has a series of these modular bookshelves that have multiple other uses: toy storage, seating spaces,
partitions, play stations, etc. Since the spaces are highly flexible, these furniture pieces have the ability to be pulled apart, stacked, and rearranged to accommodate nearly every situation.

Hat Collector’s Loft Downtown - Des Moines, Iowa
The requirements for this project were to design a loft for a specific collector. My hypothetical client for this 800 s.f. space was a hat enthusiast and collector. With that, the program is laid out around the central “hat tower”. The tower
of cubbies is centralized and functions in every room as more than just hat storage. It is acces-sible in the kitchen and bathroom for their needs and serves as the stairs to access the bedroom and also wraps to be a custom headboard.

Bus Hub Downtown - Des Moines, Iowa
This design’s intention is to turn what is now a bus stop sign on the corner, into a Hub for the capitol building and the surrounding congress buildings. They are currently all connected via underground tunnels, and this hub will have
access to that below-ground network. The language of the bus hub’s form is seen flowing in and out of the landscape, twisting to act as a curtain wall for winter’s wind and hovering for shelter from the summer’s sun.
