This art gallery project was located on a local New Orleans site which gave the studio a chance to do site visits and
research to help influence design. The program was featured around a large gallery space with support spaces such
as a cafe, restrooms and offices. The above image is a physical model with material textures applied in Photoshop.
Above are a series of site diagrams exploring sun paths, circulation, elevational studies and traffic
patterns. This research influenced the orientation and design of the project from the introduction.

FRENCHMEN STREET MUSEUM TECHNICAL DRAWINGS
This assignment used intensive mapping as the driver for design. Before a program was assigned, we were tasked with mapping New
Orleans at different scales to influence research into appropriate design on a specific site. Three different scales were used in the mapping
exercise, eventually zooming in to a four block swath where the building was located. Above are a series of diagrams from that exercise.
TECHNICAL DRAWINGS + RENDERINGS PAINTING ANALYSIS
This project explores the diagramming process of a painting and translating those diagrams into a three dimensional
model. A series of iterative models were used to pull out key aspects of the artwork until a final model could come to fruition.
On the left a selection of the study models can be seen while the final model is diplayed on the right.

NEW ORLEANS BUILDING ARTS INSTITUTE TECHNICAL DRAWINGS
The New Orleans Building Arts Institute was a project to develop an entire city block into a community center focused on the building
arts such as woodworking, masonry, plaster and metalwork. The above images are diagrams focus on the siting within the city as
well as the current use of land around the site such as transportation routes, restaurants, churches and schools. The bottom series
is a study of the Brick Weave House by Studio Gang to help influence the design of the masonry wall component within the project.

NEW ORLEANS TANZAKADEMIE MECHANICAL + STRUCTURAL PLANS + SECTION PERSPECTIVES
The New Orleans Tanzakademie is a dance school as well as a public performance theater for dance within the city. The
challenge with this project was its siting and program. The thru site in downtown New Orleans was a parallelogram,
offering an interesting design problem in how to maximize the efficiency of oddly shaped rooms. The programmatic
square footage was also very large for the site and zoning restrictions added another element to the design.

RENDERINGS
URBANbuild is in its 10th year at Tulane University. This studio serves to give students a realistic project that will come to fruition.
In the Fall semester, student design proposal for a single family residence. The projects are voted on and one moves forward
to receive further developments and construction documents. In the Spring semester, students are given the opportunity to
construct the project in reality and sell the finished product to further fund the program. This is one of the proposals developed.
