- 4. MIAD Art Gallery Site Context Milwaukee, Wisconsin Project: To design an art gallery for the purpose of displaying works from the students and alumni of the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design. The art gallery will double as a social rendezvous point and boasts a 65 person classroom, outdoor galleria and full ser- vice concessions with outdoor seating area. The main gallery is layed out in a double height space wrapped with a mezzanine and topped with a unique sawtooth roof to allow plenty of natural light. The glass wall in the lobby provides a weather barrier between the lobby and the outdoor galleria and has the option of folding unto itself allowing for an open air feel.

- 7. A B A A B A A B A Path And Volume Kettle Moraine, Wisconsin Project: To design a path and outdoor viewing area used for birdwatching. The site is a marshland that can undergo drastic seasonal changes in its habitat which presents the challenge of designing for such Structural Rhythm diversity. My solution is to raise the path and volume above the seasonal maximum flood levels by hanging it from a ridig structure allowing it to be as open as possible, maximizing viewing capability. In doing so, the design leaves a much smaller footprint on the land and allows for normal plant growth and natural habita- tion to take place. Hanging path allows for normal plant growth Path terminates at water’s edge 05
- 8. ArchTriumph 2012 Competition Submittal Rio De Janeiro, Brazil Project: To design an international dance school based on the following criteria; overall vision and design aesthetics, rela- tionship between the design and the built and natural environment, and overall innovation in design. I was tasked mainly with site design and the performance hall building. The site design includes outdoor study areas, tennis courts, excercise equipment, and view- ing areas at water’s edge with unrestricted views of Corcovado mountain and Cristo Redentor. The outdoor commons around campus have terraced green spaces for gathering, bringing a sense of pri- vacy as well as community. In collaboration with Russel LaFrombois III, AIA and Natalie Dulka Site located in Rodrigo De Freitas Lagoon in the heart of downtown Rio 06

- 15. Site Context Row Housing Project Milwaukee, Wisconsin Project: To design a row housing addition to the Brewer’s Hill area of Milwaukee, north of downtown. The site lies on Vine Street half a block from MLK Drive. The design centers around the vertical cir- culation shaft which doubles as a light well allow- ing plenty of natural light into each floor. With its natural material palette and green roofs covering 90% of the roofing space the design aimed at minimizing the building’s environmental footprint and reducing water runoff. 13
