Assignment A03 Final Board

For my final design, I edited the top fiberglass surface to cover the entire pavillion.  For my board, I chose to maintain a simple design with focus on a main exploded axonometric drawing that explored each surface layer. During my presentation, I received feedback to explore different opportunities for the pavillion, such as merging the surfaces and explore different forms for each of the material surfaces.

Assignment A03 Development


This is my new board for the Pavilion Project. I wanted to concentrate on an aquatic theme and focus the
pavilion to showcase Baltimore's rich ecological and marine history. I focused on a main section-perspective
drawing to showcase the interior as well as a rendering, circulation diagram, and orthographics. I used a muted blue and orange-brown palette to create an aquatic balance that also fortifies the renderings.

Assignment A03: Continuing Work

This week, I continued to develop and form my design. I created a more productive Rhino model of my work and created a structural form. In addition, I created an additional structural concept that derived from a form of a previous pattern.

Assignment A03 Process Round 1





Assignment A03: Round 1 Process

In this assignment we were asked to design a Pavilion for the Baltimore Inner Harbor for the presentation of short historical videos. Initially, I explored various sites around the harbor for a pavillion and explored two different designs for each site. Afterwards I created a Rhino model and design sheet for the three that were more successful. My design approach for the form of the building was an attempt to merge ideas about the site(s) as well as various historical aspects of the city related to marina and sea life.

Assignment E02

Render Before



Render at Dusk


Render at Night



Assignment E02:

This assignment allowed us to apply techniques in rendering and atmospheric effects and create a high-quality rendering of a previous studio assignment. The rendering is from a recent studio assignment, in which we were to design a mixed-use apartment space on 14th and Swann St in Washington D.C. The top rendering highlights an ideal fall atmosphere at dusk. The bottom rendering shows the building at night.

Assignment 2





CONVERGING HUBS: AN INTERMODAL BUS STOP FOR NEW YORK CITY
This project highligted the concepts of creating a uniform surface bus stop that fulfilled understanding of various digital programs as well as being applied to a real-life situation. The purpose for my bus stop is to fulfill an intermodal connection between various transportation networks in New York City. My design incorporates a ribbon designed surface created through lofts that provides an interior shelter for passengers as well as an exterior station for bicycles. Surfaced areas are set for strucutral support and areas of storage for advertisements, bus information, and the surfaces for bike storage. The paneled areas on the roof and seating offer both a penetrative surface for sunlight to enter the passengers inside while also providing a sleek aesthetic design.
