This design proposal for Socrates Sculpture Park, a public park used for the showcasing of local art in the Long Island City neighborhood of Brooklyn, incorporates different means of transportation into the design in order to provide more feasible access. These modes of transportation include vehicular ciruclation, port amenities, a bike terminal, and pedestrian access from Vernon Boulevard and Broadway, all of which are used to drive the formal language of outdoor public spaces and galleries.

The final study in a series of three, this urban intervention proposal for the Brooklyn Tobacco Warehouse provides performance, exhibition and recreational facilities to the growing Brooklyn Heights-DUMBO communities. Relying heavily on the desire to cut access across the site to engender movement to and through the tobacco warehouse, the resulting formal strategy folds itself around the preexisting structure of the warehouse as well as the larger scale cut.

A hostel as well as a music venue located in the heart of downtown New Haven, this hybrid proposal attempts to reinvent the spatial as well as programmatic standards of both. Conceived of through a reformatting and abuse of the traditional stair, the design for this hostel privileges the public space necessary for a music arena while providing the amenities and privacy required by visiting artists and travelers

Developed alongside nine other collaborators, The New Haven House proposal for the Vlock Building Project of 2011 was conceived as a design that would speak to its environment. Inventive in its formal and spatial qualities yet respectful in its overall composition, The New Haven House achieved a level of impact through simplicity and careful, caluculated design that won both the juries approval as well as that of the client.

yale school of architecture architectural design iv studio critic: joel sanders fall 2011 live-work kunsthalle at the brooklyn navy yard diagrams, models + plan, section + perspective drawings
Public architecture is explored through the design of a medium-scale institutional building, an arts center located at the Brooklyn Navy Yard. The center includes a public exhibition component conceived of as a kunsthalle an art museum that mounts only temporary exhibitionsas well as a private artists residency component. Not serving as a shrine of rare and honorific objects to which the community makes awe- filled pilgrimages, the Kunsthalle functions as an arena of provocation in which audience and discussion are stimulated. In mixing production and exhibition, it serves not as an institution of passive reception but one of active, and necessarily identifiable, intellectual exchange and debate. - Fall 2011 Studio Brief, Keith Krumwiede. Program at the BNY is split into two legs, one side reaching down into the bay designated for the production of art, and the other lifting upwards, reserved for the latters display. The two halves are joined at the theater and the sculpture yard; these spaces, both accessible at grade, are conceived of as the portions of the building in which both production and display occur simultaneously.

yale school of architecture architectural design iv studio critic: alan plattus collaborator: brittany brown hayes winter 2012 urban studio project: stamford, connecticut diagrams, models + plan, section + perspective drawings
[The goal of] this studio [is to] examine how one represents, analyzes, constructs and projects the future design of an urban site... Urban design is by nature a complex endeavor with immediate as well as long-term effects. Proposals at the city scale involve negotiations between public and private interests; global, regional and local forces and needs; collective and individual expression. - Ed Mitchell, studio brief In order to appropriately address the already existing fabric as well as the nature of the city of Stamford, this design proposal attempts to alleviate fissures in the urban grain locally. Both the downtown and water sites are treated as separate entities; each utilizes similar formal linking strategies to create new public spaces and connective typologies.

A semester-long course devoted to the study of the object of architecture or canonical buildings in its history, the following drawings attempt to analyze them not through the lens of reaction and nostalgia but through a filter of contemporary thought. Moving across history, these studies hope to establish and represent the formal tendencies of some of the most influential buldings of the Renaissance, Baroque and Mannerist periods.

This set of drawings, devoted to the spatial mapping of change in objects over time, devotes itself predominantly to three different subjects: snow (as it melts), the human brain (as it develops and decays) and architecture (as it appears). Drawn sequentially over the course of four months, each piece serves as a representative of the compilation as a whole, of the changing tendencies, comforts and crutches of the hand at work.

[An examination] of descriptive geometry and perspective through the practice of rigorous constructed architectural drawings, the methods and concepts studied serve as a foundation for the development of drawings that interrogate the relationship between a drawings production and its conceptual objectives. - studio brief, Victor Agran Using the constraints of the course to provide rigidity, this set of drawings attempt to push the limits of proscriptive drawing techniques. By allowing the drawing to be manufactured solely by virtue of the process and with no predisposition for specific visual outcomes, playful, explorative and bizarre geometries are generated, giving insight into the boundaries as well as potentials of established drafting methods.

yale school of architecture visualization III: fabrication + assembly instructors: ben pell + john eberhardt winter 2011 full-scale foam installation collaborators: andrea leung, own detlor, raymond tripodi low-density styrofoam + plywood retrospecta publication: 2010/2011
This project , designed as the final project in a digital technology course, works to make evident the nature of the relationship between a design, its fabrication, and the finished product Both additive and subtractive, the intent was to create an installation that integrated structure into the pieces formal composition. and played with light and shadow to produce new and unique lighting conditions.

Andrea Leung. Owen Detlor. R.J. Tripodi. Talia Pinto- Handler. Materials:
20.75 x 82.375 sheet of thick Ultralite MDF 20.75 x 82.375 x 31.25 block of Styrofoam

.5
Process:
.37
Step 1:
Cut MDF to size on the table saw if larger than necessary. Paint one side of MDF red.
Step 2:
Cut Styrofoam to size using the wire cutter if larger than necessary.
20.75
Step 3:
Mill MDF using the given AutoCAD file. The file is located on the server at Q:\1016B - Fabrication and Assembly\Tali_Owen_Andrea_RJ\File Handover Use the 2D toolpathing tools in MadCAM to toolpath the file. (Either the pocketing tool or the profile tool.) If you use the profile tool, be careful that when the mill removes the circles from the sheet, the circles do not fly up off the bed and interfere will the milling. Additionally, be sure that the toolpathing will not completely remove the finished piece from the surrounding MDF, because the piece will become loose before the milling is complete. Instead, remove the finished piece from the surrounding MDF with the table saw. Cut the piece on the large mill. Remember to orient the MDF with the red surface facing down. Note that the nominal radius of the circular apertures in the MDF is 1/16 smaller than the nominal radius of apertures in the foam. This is because the foam cutter removes a small amount of material. Because we have adjusted the files, the foam and MDF should fit together tightly.

31.25
Step 4:
Wire cut Styrofoam using the given DXF files. The files will be labeled according to order of cut. Open up the first file in Croma Designer, import as a polyline, make sure the file is scaled correctly, save it as a PRJ file, and make sure the origin is in the top left corner (and at the same point for each subsequent file). Remember to always select the EPS3lb option for foam cutting. Place pieces of scrap foam below the piece to be cut so that the wire can travel the whole tool path because the wire will not cut within 1 of the bed. Orient the piece of foam on the bed so that it corresponds to the dimensions of the cut. Always make sure the piece of foam is oriented perpendicular to the wire. Open up Croma Output, and import PRJ file. Zero the wire in on the topmost left corner. Cut. Make sure the wire is zeroed in on the origin at the topmost left corner for every single subsequent cut Consult http://www.architecture.yale.edu/dmonline/Tutorials/foamcutter/foamcutter.pdf for reference. After cutting, use tape to hold all the pieces together, but make sure the sticky side of the tape is facing away from the Styrofoam at all times.
82.375 20.875 37.25 3.25
Step 5:
Bring MDF and Styrofoam to the site (the small window in the stairwell closest to the laser cutters between the fifth and sixth floors). Push pegs into the MDF with the red surface closest to the ground. Slip the rest of the foam onto the pegs. This will take advantage of the wiggle room between the foam pegs and the foam tubes. Place the entire assembly on the window with red side closest to the window. Pull Styrofoam some rods out towards wall across from glass at the top of the foam piece and secure with pins.

university of michigan: taubman college of architecture & urban planning raoul wallenberg studio: borderline personality studio critic: steven christensen winter 2010 research material, diagrams, plan, section + perspective drawings san ysidro-tijuana border crossing building proposal mixed media raoul wallenberg competition: honorable mention: studio research material
The San Diego Tijuana Metropolitan Area is a territory of continuous urban fabric that includes the city and suburbs of San Diego in the US and Tijuana, Playas de Rosarito, and Tecate in Mexico. As the busiest border crossing in the world, this site offers a unique opportunity for Mexico and the US to replace a banal and congested piece of infrastructure with a public work that is a reflection of regional/national identity and civic pride. Could this central piece of infrastructure be the locus for an architectural intervention that reflects the shared aspirations of North America's largest bi-national community; a counterpoint to the proposed 'Triple Border Fence' it traverses? How can a gesture of alliance go beyond simply whitewashing a highly contentious political divide and actually improve the user experience? Should this community, in understanding of its unique relationship to the border, assert its connectedness in defiance of a divisive national rhetoric through a public work that offers new opportunities for occupation and political action? Rather than lingering in the realm of utopian illusion, this studio recognizes the continued existence of the border and seeks tactical, speculative, and timely solutions to the critical design problem of the threshold. - Steven Christensen, studio brief. The first half of the design studio, focused on site research and culminating in the compilation of maps and drawings into a book, consists of a heavy focus on the historic and geographic aspects of the San Diego - Tijuana border region. The resulting design project, a border tower devoted predominantly to an inversion of the concept of Duty-Free, is a formal study embodying the intention to redefine the notion of the architectural symbol, reinvent the concept of the border crossing station, and make public the subverted identities of the US-Mexico border. A tower located in no mans land and dedicated predominantly to office space to be filled by the adjacent publics, the suggestive nature of this megastructure calls into question the communicative aspects of the skyscraper as well as the potential for buildings to both sublimate as well as promote the more sinister characteristics of a region.

This studio, aimed at engaging in a formal exploration of staggering topographical differences in the argentine landscape, hopes to accentuate the drastic difference between the flatness of the pampas/lowlands and the towering height of the 20th century skyscraper. Studied at two vastly different sites, both landscape and building proposal attempt to underline as well as develop this differentiation of scale and create suitable environments in relation to human occupancy.

k i n d e r T A N K, is a Chicago-based, not-for-profit coalition of educators and concerned citizens who believe the contemporary approach to education is wrongheaded and only delays our responsibilities to the present. Rather than working from a distancethat is, rather than investing now in a future that is always distant, with an attitude towards early education that assumes an yet-unconsummated future, with hopes that the children of today will someday benefit the society of tomorrow, kinderTANK promises invest and engage children in the present as fully active participants of society and turn their minds towards the problems of today. Society is not made up of children and adults. There is no such thing as a child, simply full members of society who have lived on this earth for fewer or greater years than others. Younger members may possess less knowledge of the world, but may also suffer less from the desensitization that comes with age. Members of society under the age of 10 represent the largest yet-untapped think tank in modern society. The goal of kinderTANK is to turn these young minds toward the so-called adult issues of the day. - studio brief, Rosalyne Shieh This proposal organizes program according to its level of integration and interaction with active members of the public. While some of the spaces consist of private classrooms and enclosed spaces of learning, others are designed to espouse more open, fluid methods of education, communication, and discovery. Not a building shackled to the spatial tropes of the generic institution, the kinderTANK attempts to achieve sufficient irregularity and malleability so as to continue to provide inventive methods of learning for decades to come.

A paradoxical coupling of terms the institutional with the abandoned Civic Friche refers to the tactical appropriation of marginal sites for public function. Distinct from traditional strategies of reuse, Civic Friche describes a new approach tourbanism through civic initiative, temporary and interim uses, and public participation. Civic Friche is an ideology. A term that resists translation (wasteland being its most direct and reductive English counterpart), Friche has been embraced by a cadre of architects, landscapes architects, artists and thinkers as an opportunistic strategy with liberating potential... A friche site, whether reappropriated or new, begins with an intimate understanding of the physical and cultural context, yet it assumes that things will change. New programs will emerge. Cultural and economic shifts will invariably take place. The architect, released from the post of dogmatic creator, envisions solutions that may be fragmented, temporary, cheeky, and even subversive. - http://www.civicfriche.com Alveole 14, an abandoned Nazi u-boat bunker located in the city of Saint Nazaire in the Loire-Atlantique region of France, is studied in a series of seven other friche projects. Recently adapted by LIN Architects for VIP LIFE, this heavy piece of infrastructure embodies and serves as a constant reminder to its citys citizens of a more sinister era in French history. LINs intervention, a design consisting largely of strategically placed lighting and and access amenities, serves to break up and mediate the immensity of scale of the u-boat bunker. Now functioning as a music and performance venue, Alveole 14 serves as a testament to the indelible mark of architecture on its environment as well the powerful implications of urban spatial reappropriation.
