Spa HotelCore III Fall 2015 | Renata Sentkiewicz
A non-space, the modern Hotel is a foreign presence in the city of Sapporo, itself a piece of fiction steeped in Japans fascination with the West. Climatically tuned to global standards and giving denizens no reason to enter its apce, the Hotel stands apart within the city center.
By introducing the most verncular of conditions - thermal baths channeling both Hokkaidos geothermal potential and the Japanese onsen tradition - deep into the heart of the tower, the Hotel now assumes a civic character. The spas mediate the private, international hotel rooms with the public, local programs of gallery, theater, and greenhouse, fusing the non-space into Sapporos urban fabric.

LibraryCore II Spring 2015 | Jeffry Burchard
A library is a venue of compressed time: Centuries of knowledge compressed into pages bound to a single location. In this sense, a rare books library contains a different amount of time compared to a circulating library, and its spaces should reflect a more intense degree of physical interaction between body and book - the latter showcased as an artifact. Set within the Back Bay Fens, itself a landscape with a different sense of time, the Library creates three levels of spaces and times, from fast to slow.

Olympic CenterCore II Spring 2015 | Jeffry Burchard
Obsolescence is a fate that befalls most Olympic facilities. This project is a flexible building capable of serving as a community hub long after the Boston 2024 Olympics while giving the city a powerful form.
Composed of a fixed tower and a flexible bar, the crux of the Neighborhood Olympic Conditioning Complex (NOCC) is an inversion of the flexible/fixed paradigm. The flexible bar bears the weight of the fixed tower, which is designed to be deconstructed, its structure fabric facade eventually removed. Ironically, it is the fixed part of the building that is more flexible in its construction, as the relevance of its programs could only last so long after 2024. In contrast, the flexible foundation has more functions and thus a much longer life.

Networked DormCore I Fall 2014 | Kiel Moe
For many, college is the last place where social networks develop organically around the rhythm of ones life. This project deals with such a space: A dorm crafted from the reciprocity of a given facade 960 long and a central stairwell. The interstitial space between houses the gamut of the college experience: Dorms, as required by the brief, and a circulation sequence wrapped around social/innovation spaces punctured by atria letting light into the living spaces. A range of circulation options host activities ranging from the raucous to the quiet. The myriad social networks of the college experience are thus given eclectic physical form.

SandboxFall 2015 | Competition
The Center for Architecture, Design, and Education (CADE) design deploys three strategies to introduce real world applications to high school education:
1) Learning by Delivery Both high school and after-school pedagogies will be based on project delivery, where students manage and participate in real world projects with citizens and officials.
2) Sandbox Each space is designed not around a packaged identity - classroom - but is based on activities and usage frequency. Major programs rise through a sandbox of flexible platforms connected by flow spaces that host public reviews, brainstorming sessions, and lectures.
3) Adaptive Reuse The building integrates new spaces into an existing tower: its structure, space, and skin becomes a live demonstration of how we shape the built environment and vice versa.

Neovius ShelterDigital Media II Fall 2015 | Andrew Witt
The project investigates the threshold at which texture becomes structure. By mapping two minimal surfaces across three geometries - the global, medium, and local - a series of volumes are created with different degrees of porosity and structural integrity.
A neovius minimal surface mapped onto a mobius strip proved to be the most stable structural surface - one which also allows us to reduce its contact with the ground plane while maintaining maximum volume within.

welcome . HomeSpring 2016 | Startup
As a co-founder of welcome . Home, a co-living startup incubating at the Harvard i-Lab, I am currently designing and fabricating a space divider (or multiplier) system that creates efficient rooms within the existing housing stock. Our long term vision is to lower living costs through greater space efficiency.
We are currently prototyping the system for market launch in the fall.

Informal AthensSummer 2014 | Personal
This project investigates the physical and infrastructural spaces occupied by the Greek informal economy.
Operating at nebulous intersection of the physical and infrastructural, the many actors of the informal economy occupy very different parts of urban Athens while also engaging with the states infrastructural space (Citizenship, Building Codes, and Taxation) with varying intensities. Both are buffeted by forces endogenous - a tradition of defying authority - and exogenous - immigrants forced into Greece by EU policies. With the state extensive yet weak, the use of these two spaces mirror each other as each actor of the informal economy determines its own terms of engagement.
Polykatoikia
Due to high social security costs, informal employees, occupying the most stationary but least exposed space within polykatoikia
blocks.
Owners of periptero kiosks constantly bend the rules to expand the boundaries of their space, which is exposed to heavy
consumer traffic.
Periptero
Illegals hawking contrabands and drugs are highly exposed in public spaces. They own fluid spaces that
react to market conditions.

Professional Work2014 - 2015
As a Design Fellow at MASS Design Group in the summer of 2015, I contributed conceptual designs and renders to four major projects. I worked on the Colorado College Innovation Centers three major spaces - a fabrication facility, a social atrium, and a food lab - and produced several concept designs and renders for presentation to the prospective donors.
At Populous, I worked with senior designers under tight deadlines to develop a wayfinding proposal for Boston Logan Airports Terminal E Arrivals Hall, integrating signage within a sweeping canopy.
As a summer intern at RSP Architects, Planners, and Engineers, I worked on the Church of Transcendance in Singapore. My primary contribution was the buildings two panelized facade designs.
In winter 2016, I helped to build 2 presentation models for Maryann Thompson Architects entirely by hand.
