While employed by Freecell Design, 2012.

SITE:Soho, NY

The design for the display armature considers the aesthetics and faceted geometry of Irene Neuwirth’s jewelry collection.

The installation armature is envisioned as a welded steel tube frame, to be hung. Attached to the inside of the frame are light fixtures which run the length of the installa-tion. Stretched over the frame is translucent fabric, creat-ing an illuminated skin. The vitrines are to be constructed of painted wood surfaces to serve as a backdrop for Irene’s jewelry.

READING THE CITY

Studio

Perspektif Tower

SITEArchaeological Museum atop the first hill of Istanbul

PROGRAMA structure that responds to the experience of Istanbul as it can be viewed, and experienced from a singular location within the city.

Perspective lines are drawn to a collection of sites which deter-mine the geometry of the architecture and how the occupant may view the city. The structure incorporates the Gulhane Park adjacent to the museum, allowing for rooftops and elevated platforms to become a vertical extension of green space.
