THEATER OF CONSTRUCTION: MUSEUM OF CONSTRUCTION: THE DUOMO IN FLORENCE

Spring2011

Plan:1Plan:2

This museum was an addition to the existing museum next door. It was created as an exploration of sucessfully navigating a bend in the urban fabric, while also integrating itself into the ground by creating its own piazza space to recognize the important methods used to create the dome of the Santa Maria del Fiore.

THE PREVIOUS PIELD OF VARIATION THEN CAME TO BE EXTRUDED UPWARDS TO CREATE WHAT WOULD BECOME THE BUILDING PROGRAMS. THROUGH THIS DESIGNED EXTRUSION THE BUILDINGS WOULD HOPEFULLY BECOME A SEAMLESS TRANSITION FROM SITE TO BUILDING AS ONE TRANVERSES THE SITE.

THIS PROJECT IS AN EXPLORATION OF FLUID DYNAMICS, AND HOW IT CAN BE INTEGRATED INTO A SITE TO CREATE A SINUOUS, MULTI-LEVEL, TRANSVERSABLE SPACE. UTILIZING THE PREVIOUS SITE MAPPING STUD-

IES, THE DESIGN WAS CENTERED ON THE EXPANSION, CONNECTION AND INTERCONNECTIVITY ON BOTH MAIN STREET, AND THE DALLAS UNDER-

GROUND NETWORK. FURTHERMORE BY CREATING A FLEXIBLE SHADING SYSTEM, SPACES LIKE THESE CAN BE OPERABLE YEAR ROUND, AND BRING LIFE BACK TO THE GROUND LEVEL, WHILE STILL MAINTAINING THE UNDER-

GROUND NETWORK, AND HUBS.

GRIDSHELL FABRICATION A FULL SCALE FABRICATION

This project is an exploration of digital fabrication in architecture. Using the Grasshopper plug-in for Rhino a double layered gridshell structure was designed then fabricated to scale. This project shows a complete thorough working knowledge of construction, fabrication, and materiality in design.

This project utilizes a pre-existing building on the Menil Art Campus. Originally designed by their son, it is irreplaceable and currently vacant. Originally designed for byzantine frescos found on the site, it Is a beautiful celebration of light and space. Therefore by designing and renovating within this stark cubic volume one can create a celebrated mass within the space to rejuvenate an irreplaceable part of the campus.
