CRCUIT

albuquerque, new mexico

status : complete

While sidewalks create the potential for local interaction, few use them due to sprawl. As a result, the city’s collective memories are fragmented and discontinuous, or forgotten. This new circuit allows for local exchanges to reside, to leave residual traces for others to observe. If people cannot genuinely pass by each other, the next possible means would be for their presences to interact and remain for others to observe and take part in that experience.

This intervention of reclamation is a hack upon the city grid, burning new circuitry specifically for individuals to circumvent ‘the grid’ and flow over it at a pedestrian time scale instead of the compressed scales of speed and efficiency. This new circuitry provides the captured catalogues of visitors’ experiences, a free zone of both immediate and residual interactions, within an area that previously provided no such means.

As a conceptual exercise, this project was important for me in the discovery of ‘lost time’ and the artifacts of life and community that evaporate during times of stress, re-focus and change. From this idea of social documentation within an architectural space came a research trajectory of examining the potential of computer vision as way to absorb these public interactions and projection mapping and responsive surfaces as a means re-present this social data within local or remote spaces.

National Institute of Flamenco

National Institute of Flamenco

old town, santa fe, new mexico

status : complete

The National Institute of Flamenco had been occupying a retired auto garage in Albuquerque. In 2006 it acquired a corner lot directly in Old Town on the Santa Fe Plaza and desired a more dynamic and appropriate identity. Aside from housing the current program found in their existing location, the institute needed to expand considerably to include additional areas of performance art; music and multimedia/digital choreography. Additionally, a cafe/club component with small sound stage was required that linked back strongly to the plaza.

The building had to maintain strong social connections to its surrounding urban fabric. The site had to maintain porosity, the ability for the passerby to infiltrate and occupy public and semi private outdoor elements within the institute’s boundaries. Also, the institute needed very strong connections between the workshop studios, gallery and café and the surrounding environment so as to engage visitors within the general proximity of the institute.

The cleaved plan is a metaphor for a pierced heart and a direct representation of the inspirational imagery found in the poetics of duende flamenco: the broken heart and the splinter that pains the soul, informs an architecture that roots towards a historically rational perception embattled in translations of the immediate. An evolution of Spanish-Pueblo Style expands form and aesthetics into a hybridization that embraces a regionally familiar massing with updated techniques in building and surface technologies. The new institute embodies an expressive freedom that celebrates the moment while retaining fundamental social and cultural southwest traditions.

Northerly Island Nature Center

Northerly Island Nature Center

chicago, illinois

status : complete

Creating a dialogue between building and site, the nature center complex creates an interdependent relationship between Chicago’s social and natural systems while creating a place to get away and relax from the dense network of the city. The circulation flow weaves a series of disconnected buildings into a singular cohesive campus comprised of four distinct programmatic entities. The connective tissue between these buildings become the circulatory system through the complex, it is also the location of exterior activities and gatherings. Consisting of public plazas, event decks, botanical gardens, boat slips, cafes and public art and performance spaces these areas of public collection turn the nature center into more than simply a place to get away, but rather a place of arrival.

The plan of the complex addresses specific site aspects such as maximized views toward the harbor, city and habitat, alignment with the waterfront and boating/beach culture and creating a parallel orientation with initial visitor approach. The sectional qualities of the complex aim to address environmental conditions such as optimal solar gain, predominant wind direction during both summer and winter months, and the penetration of natural light.

Corrales Community Pathway + Pedestrian Park

Written by on . Posted in Architecture. Leave a Comment

Corrales Comunity Pathway + Pedestrian Park

corrales, new mexico

status : complete

The current pathway along the shoulder through Corrales, New Mexico is a wasteland, an unsafe, poorly maintained, hostile space where pedestrians, realistically have no place. The challenge of this project was to transform an isolating and dangerous highway shoulder from an unsafe, unstable and detached space into a place of engagement, immersion and balance, centered around the pedestrian’s experience and their safe travel along the Corrales Road Commercial Corridor.

In addition to designing a safe and enjoyable pathway, secondary automobile circulation needed to be addressed. From studying the unobstructed nature of automobile access off Corrales Road, there was an underlying need to consolidate vehicular circulation, relegating its access along existing crossroads with connections and parking located behind clusters of adjacent commercial businesses.

Lastly, the goal in developing a larger community park within the commercial core of Corrales was to create a social center for community activities and individual repose. The design aesthetic was executed through traditional agricultural patterns and proportions. The design and layout of the landscape reflects long lots, celebrating the village’s deep ties to acequia-based farming. The landform shapes and overall tectonics of the community park are derived from soil architecture, planting patterns and mechanical forms.

Through extensively exploring site opportunities and the relationship between landscape and architectural tectonics the studio arts building is a study of the inter-relationship between building-form and land-form.

Between the earthen upheavals that create a pleated horizontal landscape and the vertical continuation of folded metal forms lies the fissure. These cracks, opened though an internal process between the architectural forms, landscape elements and the artist reveals dynamic relationships in which flows the creative soul of the entire environment.

Meeting Street Center for Excellence

Meeting Street Center for Excellence

providence, rhode island

status : complete

While designing at SA Architects I was given the opportunity to conceptualize, design and develop the Meeting Street Center, a 76,000-square-foot building situated on a nine-acre campus specializing in special-needs educational, therapeutic and diagnostic services to over 3,000 children and their families each year.

The main design objectives for the campus include: creating a dialog between an unfolding urban landscape and the natural environment, developing public spaces that engage students through overlapping meeting spaces, indoor gardens and galleries, outward gestures into the landscape to engage its surroundings, an expansion and contraction of spaces in order to create private/intimate corridors that morph into public/social spaces for gatherings, and fragmented/linear circulation that combines notions of “hallway” (mechanical) and “pathway” (organic).

The Construction of Art

Vanguard at the Armory

providence, rhode island

status : complete

A rapid assemblage of metal scaffolding and donated or scavenged construction and traffic mitigation materials were used to carve gallery spaces for a group art show in the endangered Cranston Street Armory.

The challenge of the exhibition was to mediate between the soaring open web trusses and heroics of the 38,000 sf structure and the smaller scale of the art. The scaffolding slices diagonally across the grain of the drill hall, it’s vertical elements punching up through the massive volume of space to anchor the exhibit and lock back in to the existing structure. This project was achieved through partnerships with the Vanguard Group of Artists, the Convergence International Art Festival and the Providence Preservation Society.

Pawtucket Day Nursery

Pawtucket Day Nursery

pawtucket, rhode island

status : complete

This addition was generated from the idea of tumbling blocks and the energy of the primary inhabitants of the space – children. The interaction between new and existing construction is energized through the use of familiar textures renewed through alternative building materials and skewed geometries.

These interlocking geometries stimulate conflict and contrast, harmony and comfort – creting distinction between the new expression and existing structure while remaining readable as a whole. Designing with these parameters in mind a conceptual translation was developed corresponding to the energy, enthusiam, playfulness and logic existing in the creative minds of children.
