This project was the explora-
tion of varying facade patterns inspried by
materials used for ship sail fabrication.
We wanted to test materials that provided
large span coverage with extreme flexibility
and concavity. The fibrous materials were
arranged in strategic directions to create a
part to whole effect read as an overall pat-
tern along with individual panels. We also
wanted to experiment with the untouched
territory of vertical stacking of the three
theaters within the program. This was to
emphasize the elitest mentality of the the-
ater society. By elevating the main theater
we have forced the grand procession in an
extreme veritcal-sense. The atrium style
approach also gave unique opporunities to
maximize views within the Miami, FL envi-
ronment.
As the project progressed the
fibrous materials tranformed into structural
elements to allow for such large spans. By
patterning the structure we wanted to skew
the typical view of a glass facade bulding.
Along the section the floor-
plates are slighly recessed as one decends
through the building. This is to allow for
maximum sun protection without adding
mass to the exterior facade.

12Jacks City: City for 5 Million People
CS 2GB
The idea of challenging public vs private
space is what Jacks City represents. By
flipping the scale on public and private
spaces you now have private spaces that
feel public and public spaces that feel
private.
The overall scheme resembles the configu-
ration of the classic game of jacks. Straight
lines from point A to point B represent the
x-configuration creating streets. At the in-
tersection of these streets are public plazas
represented by the spherical objects at the
extremes of one individual jack. This basic
set up is simply a variation of two basic
elements; the street and the square. By
simplifying the makeup of a city the inhabit-
ants are able to add small aesthetic details
to give its unique personality and feel. While
this typical arrangement is what is viewed
from the public perspective it is what is
happening in the interstitial space that gives
it that extra attention. As the jacks begin to
converge and multiply the in between space
develops as private space, although this
space is not what is considered traditionally
‘private’ as it is shared by the surrounding
residences. This over-exaggerated private
space allows for a small community to
work as one without being confined by the
blocks they reside within. By avoiding the
neighborhood block-like set up a common-
ality is spread throughout the city. i.e. your
neighbor is not always someone you share
the same block with.

As the streets converge the public plazas
emerge. Within these plazas there are op-
portunities for community areas, commercial
buildings, and open spaces. It is at the
discretion of its local inhabitants to create
the demand for the plazas makeup. These
provide the shared urban space necessary
for daily function within a city, especially
the size of 5 million people. It gives a
breaking point and a sense of relief to the
surrounding residential fabric. There is no
downtown nor shopping center nor grand
mall, the public urban space is spread
evenly throughout the city. This causes
the surrounding residences to be directly
responsible yet effected by the development
of the public space and encouraging the
upkeep of these areas.
Each street is of the same length and each
plaza of the same size.
So as the population grows so do the
streets and plazas. Since plazas depend
on streets and streets depend on plazas
the urban growth stays consistent and
proportionate.
This city is not built on point A to point B
efficiency. I do not argue for this fact. What
I do want to challenge is the daily exchange
of public and private spaces. Forcing the
entire city to be self-aware of its sur-
roundings not just in their private homes
but within the public realm and what they
encounter on a daily basis.

13Chicago Urban Housing
Studio 2GB
This project is based upon the
traditional housing typologies of perimeter
block and courtyard. It is a journey down the
path of combining the two typologies and
challenging their restraints. By beginning the
transformation with a dual perimeter block,
adding filleted corners, severing at specific
locations then creating subtle rotations
a dynamic form is created. As the inner
rotations increase a delamination from the
exterior happens and allows for the unique
moments of interstitial space to occur. At
each of these moments a communal field is
shoved into the crevice. The bulbous oppor-
tunities vary in size and shape. Surrounding
each communal field is a “neighborhood”
of units fitting to the public program.
Although the exterior facade
mantains a monolithic form there are mo-
ments where it is shifted and peeled away
to allow for balconies along unique perim-
eter units. These balconies disperse the
hierachy of the overall community. The roof
is activated by individual rooftop gardens for
the interior units.
To maintain the monothlThe pe-
rimeter facade pattern disguises the interior
structure and floorplates while the interior
facades allow for full disclosure of the inte-
rior workings of the units. The juxtapositiong
of the two facades emphasizes the perimter
block units versus courtyard units.

14Mies Black Orchid
VS 2GB
This project exhibits the explora-
tion of black, Mies Van Der Rohe, and or-
chids. The process began with the study of
Rorschach inkblots in mass production fol-
lowed by 3D modeling of individual orchids
of varying species. After multiple disections
and sectional drawings the bookmatched
qualities of the Barcelona Pavillion were
imagined in 2D form. Lastly a formal layer
was added to provide depth and interest
throughout the overall installation. These
drawings varied in print mediums from film,
mylar, to bond. The stacking algorithim was
enhanced by clear glass and backlights to
providea realistic yet decieving approach to
Mies’ Black Orchid.
