I am a Masters of Architecture student in my second year of study at the University of Calgary. I have developed strong digital and para-metric modelling, rendering, diagramming and digital fabrication skills that have given me confidence and control in numerous softwares. I will bring the skills and knowledge that I have obtained in school as well as my experience working in three small scale design builds to a new work environment. I look forward to furthering my education and experiences by working in an architectural firm as a summer intern.

When I started the M.Arch program last fall I had no idea

what I was getting myself into, I knew that I had a lot of hard

work ahead me, but I did not realize there would be such an

incredible learning curve. In the Graphics Workshop 0I class you

are confronted with so many new challenges, and although the

learning curve is steep, the progress made in such a short amount

of time is really amazing. I went into Graphics with a comprehensive

knowledge of photoshop from previous experience but I came out

proficient in the full Adobe suite, Rhino, V-ray and Grasshopper.

I think that having the opportunity to TA the Graphics

Workshop 0I would be an awesome experience in the sense

that, not only would I be able to share the knowledge and skills I

acquired over the last year with the incoming students but it would

also help me to continue learning through the design process and

software. In addition to this I enjoy helping others and often find

myself assisting my peers but also learning something new in the

process. I would enjoy the opportunity to be able to assist the news

students by sharing the skills, approaches, and methods that I have

developed in my studies thus far.

worming hutThe Worming Hut was designed to mimic the natural lamination of wood and the perforation created by WOODWORM. Despite being widely considered a pest, woodworms are an intriguing kind of architect in their own right. They reappropriate a space, carving and tunneling their way through wood to create a temporary habitation. The resulting pattern of perforations and the layers of wood that are revealed create a striking effect which inspired this project. This behaviour of the woodworm also has an interesting likeness to the behaviour of the river on which the hut is located, which winds through and carves away earth.

subsumptionSubsumption refers to behavioural robotics in relation to robotic architecture, the idea is that by de-composing behaviours into sub behaviours, a heirarchy of layers can be organized. This allows high levels are capable of subsuming lower levels.In general if a robots lower layer is avoid objects and the second layer is move around these layers would run beneath or be subsumed by the third layer of explore. So if we understand the city as a subsumptive system, a first layer could be building a building, the second could be develop in-frastructure around this building and then the third layer could be subsume the previous layers when the city continues to grow.

project goal:The goal of this project was to create a theoretical architectural project that using the integration of robots. This project takes cues from the curvature of the topography and produced form, by working back and forth between them a set of general rules is defined in order to drive the behaviour of the robots as a place to begin to extend one set of geometry into another while amplifying and exploit-ing areas of deviation and intensity embedded in the geometric grids of the topography and form.

Through the use of parametric software (grasshopper) and coding through processing the entire project is linked and allowed to emerge through the amplification of deviated grids. In order to achive a geometric extension from one geometry to another, swarms were employed to populate between and throughout the form and topography. In this project this material effect is the theoreti-cal product of the integration of robots that extrude steel and concrete.

myrtleMYRTLE celebrates the organic ordering, conscientious assembly, and gravity of the Lulav, particularly the elegant aggregation of the Hadass myrtle leaves. MYRTLE is squat, standing 67 at its apex, affording its users a feeling of cloistered intimacy while gathering to celebrate Sukkoth. The sukkah is composed of 72 Leaf Components reflecting the myrtle leaf and 200 Star Components used to space vertical assemblies and connect Leaf Components. Cut out of sheets of white 1/4 polyethylene, the components are organic in assembly but modern in materiality, uniting notions of history, nature, and technology. Rigid steel lines running through holes in the leaf components and across the tops of the vertical assemblies provide for structural integrity.The jagged exterior of MYRTLE is softened by the application of boughs of evergreen placed in planned patches by the sukkahs users. MYRTLEs top bracing provides a lattice for an organic roof which further adheres this contemporary sukkah to Jewish tradition.Although MYRTLE is represented here as semi-circular collection of equal height vertical assemblies, its component-based design affords the user customization. Relying primarily on friction-fitting components, construction requires little bolting or gluing.

sculpture houseSculpture House seeks to create space rather than spaces. The folding plane works to create a singular form, as if sculpted out of a primitive shape. The folding plane defies the sites narrowness by extending towards and including its surroundings. At the same time creating enclosed and open space that provides alternating views of Sunnyside, the bluff and across the river to the city.

voronoi follieThis project was an exploration of digitally-aided fabrication. Existing geometry for a Sukkah, comprised of many cell components, was a template to work from. Digital models were adjusted in Rhino and Grasshopper to allow CNC milling of molds. Digital-computational understanding and regeneration of the form and its components were the first tasks to complete. Each step of the process was guided by the need to make the components fabricate-able, therefore, the physical constraints of the CNC mill, the casting materials, and the assembly logic all had to be taken into consideration.The second half of the project comprised the physical fabrication process. Realities of budget, machinery lim-itations, and time required to prepare and cast multi-ple molds became the focus. Casts were produced and assembled as a small segment of the original form to demonstrate the means of fabrication through digital processes.

the extension becomes apart of the building entry condition shifting the building volume backwards.

however the atrium space implies the opposite shift.

the solid condition implied as identical to the void condition.

if these relationships are adjusted to make an even grid over the implied building volume a tripartite and bipartite relationship is revealed.

through this procedure it is evident that the plans and facades possess both tripartite and bi-partite schemes.

comprehensiveOur comprehensive studio project centralizes itself around the conceptual driver of movement, specifically, the space in between two or more entities that enables a dynamic relationship of communication through the mediation and manifestation of a dialectic. (ii) To us, this notion of movement and the oscillation between binaries resulted from a process oriented site analysis that yielded the physical relationships currently existing on the site. (iii) The program of our building is a digital media centre that we are taking up as a vessel for emergent technology. The building program will provide a space for exhibiting new media and technology, while also providing an educational atmosphere coupled with a substantial research oriented facility. This research component of the building will enable the spectacle of production to be housed alongside the exhibition areas of the building. (iv) This will programmatically articulate the complexity of movement that we are seeking, where production and the produced can be experienced simultaneously as an oscillation and constant ongoing dialectic between the new and the innovative

The program matrices explore the different relationships between programming vertically and horizontally. Additionally they are parametrically linked in correspondence with one another in such a way that programmatic typologies are ordered and connected to ensure a functionally desirable relationship.

The exploration is parametrically linked around an entry condition. each iteration explores a possible entry condition where the other programmatic elements are adjusted in relation to the site entry.
