7. Becoming an architect has been a dream
STATEMENT OF INTENT
of mine since I was in the fifth grade and
was asked what I wanted to be when I
grew up. It is something that I have never
given up pursuing, although the meaning
of architecture, to me, has certainly evolved
since that time.
My design sense is driven by the
ideas of culture, community and
connections. These connections, both
physical and abstract, that a single gesture
or structure is capable of making, have been
evident throughout my design projects.
Architecture can bridge gaps both within
and between communities. Architecture is an
art that is greatly influenced by the culture
while also further influencing life around it.

SITE: DOWNTOWN
NEW GREENVILLE COMMUNITY GREENVILLE, SC
CONNECT _ to downtown
The purpose of this project was to take a vacant site in
the North End of downtown Greenville and give it a new
life to better connect a newly built elementary school
to the Main Street area and Falls Park. Because of
the lack of affordable housing in downtown Greenville,
this seemed to be an appropriate solution for the site.
A new neighborhood of affordable housing is placed
alongside the Reedy River along with educational
facilities which work together to promote a sustainable
lifestyle. The layout of the community challenges the
car but is a very bike and pedestrian friendly area. It
is an easy walk from this new community to nearby
schools, the community center, and downtown
businesses. Community garden plots also work to
encourage sustainable living.

13. An area of community garden
plots is located along the
river.
Parking is all enclosed in grassy mounds
that act as both a visual and noise buffer
to the busy Academy Street.
High density areas are concentrated at the
front corner of the site to allow for a more
neighborhood type feel along the river.

GATEWAY TO GREENVILLE SITE: GREENVILLE, SC
CONNECT _ to downtown
This project sits on a site that has been vacant for
several years. It was previously home to the Greenville
Memorial Auditorium which was torn down to make
room for the neighboring Bi-Lo Center. The site
sits at a location that welcomes many visitors to the
city of Greenville. The idea behind this design is to
create a strong visual image for the city of Greenville
with reflective buildings and a community
center shaped like a drop of water. The project
will also create a link to downtown by funneling
visitors and residents alike to the downtown area.
Inspiration came from the ideas of water, music,
and mountains that are so present in Greenville. The
icon of the site, the water droplet shaped community
center, acts as a large transparent living room for the
community, a type of space that Greenville does not
currently have. It can be used for a variety of different
types of events.

20. SCULPTURE This sculpture creates a memorable
entrance into the city of Greenville. The
form was inspired by combining the
ideas of water, music, and the
mountains that seem to best
represent Greenville.
21. The forms of the buildings on the site were driven by
the lines created by the intersection of several major
landmarks of Greenville. This created a path leading
visitors to each one of these important landmarks and
toward the downtown area. BI-LO CENTER

SITE: HISTORIC CENTER
GENOA, ITALY
The site of this project is located in the historic center
of Genoa, Italy, therefore, the context of the site was
of extreme importance in the design process. The
solution implements an inhabitable wall.
From the exterior, this wall would look like a thick,
heavy wall, similar to those of the surrounding
buildings that have extremely heavy and solid
materials. But, from the interior, the wall would be
a completely inhabitable space, making for a unique
living environment. On the exterior, from the left to
right of the front elevation, the parti of the building
goes from a heavy wall, drawing on the heaviness of
the surrounding buildings, to a very light transparent
structure symbolizing the modernity of this new space.
27
30. COMMUNITY The chosen connection of this modern structure to the
historic site was materiality. The neighboring piazza
is known for its black and white marble
stripes, which is something that was carried into the
PEDESTRIANS
design of this new structure in a way that is not literal, but
still forms a link to the history of the area. Rather than
accomplishing this striping affect through the literal colors
of black and white materials, this is done by unique material
use. The first portion of the stripe is made of a light colored
material while the other stripe is treated with a gray glazing.
During the day, this glazing will appear to be dark, giving the
affect of a dark and a light stripe. At night, the roles of these
materials reverse as the interior spaces are illuminated,
making the glazed part of the wall light.

SITE: RIVER ARTS DISTRICT,
ASHEVILLE, NC
Sustainability, as a health and ecological
concern, is a growing trend in our society today. The
intention of this new community, in the River Arts
District of Asheville, North Carolina, is to promote a
healthy lifestyle for all residents through a program of
buildings and open spaces specific to health activities
and educating individuals on healthy practices.
Sustainability may typically be seen as an attempt to
conserve energy, but it also encompasses a change
in the overall lifestyle of a community. The goal of
this project was to promote sustainability, through
the reduction of energy use, but also through the
physical and social aspects. This was done through
transforming a site with a previous life as an industrial
area which created many challenges.

in terms of containing all of the essential commodities
needed for a successful community, including
groceries, restaurants, and pharmacies all located on
site, within walking distance of the residential districts.
The community promotes environmental
sustainability through the growth of organic
food on site. The victory garden on the site would allow
residents to rent a lot on which they could grow their
own food. A farmer’s market would also be located
within the community to allow for those individuals who
do not choose to plant their own food to purchase local
goods.

CLEMSON BIKE HUB
CLEMSON , SC
CONNECT _ by bikability
The purpose of this addition to the Clemson downtown
community is to promote biking to and from
Clemson’s campus as well as between classes. The
project features two distinct programmatic issues, a
bike depot that will act as the hub of a new
bike share program and also housing units.
These two issues had to be addressed in very different
ways while creating a cohesive building that joined
both aspects of the program.
47
53. The bicycle aspect of the site is the most prominent as it is the portion of the space that will be used by
the entire community. The front of the bike depot is open to the street so that those walking by take notice
of what is going on inside and gain interest in biking. Looking inside this space, one can see the action of
revolving bicycle racks with individuals going in and out to retrieve bikes. The process of bike return and
LATURAL BUILDING SECTION 1/4” = 1’ - 0”
bike cleaning can also be seen from the exterior. Along the sidewalk, there is an area carved out of the front
of the building for use as a public meeting space for those coming to use the bike share program. The glass
entrance tower, featuring the bike sculpture atrium and lobby space, acts as an icon that can be seen from
College Avenue, the main street running through downtown Clemson. This works to attract people to the site
as an icon of what goes on inside.
51
55. The living portion of the space is geared to individuals in the community who have an interest in reducing the impact of cars in the
area by making it a more bike friendly community. There are a total of 8 housing units. The four on the plaza level
are flats while the four upper units are multi-leveled. The living arrangement allows for a great deal of privacy with individual
garden spaces and private entrances to each unit. Even with this privacy that is offered, there is still a feeling of
community. The housing above steps back to create a lighter feeling building from the street as well as to allow for each individual
to have their own private garden. Natural light is also an important aspect in the living spaces.

This project involved the revitalization of the train rails
through Anderson, South Carolina. A former train
station is present across the street from the site of this
new station. The study of the history of this existing
station and the tracks that run through the site was
essential in the design of the new station. The task to
create a new commuter train station involved forming
a space that is inviting to the people of Anderson by
being convenient, easy to navigate and interesting.
This new structure features an organic form that
seems to be growing from the site. Circulation
through the station is the main emphasis of the design.
The central, double height lobby and the roof garden
create unique spaces for a train station.

LEE HALL BRIDGE CLEMSON, SC
CONNECT _ bridge the gap
The addition of this space to Lee Hall is capable of not
only bridging the gap between two studios, but also
of fulfilling some of the many needs of the students in
terms of additional areas that are needed within the
studios. In order to get the most out of the additon,
the best solution is to make the space as versatile and
multifunctional as possible. To accomplish
this goal, the design includes a beam that performs the
functions of seating and display. It also has a screen that
fulfills the need of sun shading and provides additional
display space. Careful attention to materiality, joints,
and form are necessary. Inspiration for the structure
came from the word “fold.” The screen features a unique
fold that gives the structure its identity. The connection
of the beam to the floor also creates a fold as they are
constructed of the same material placed together in a fold
like context.
63
66. The beam that spans along the entire length of the bridge serves several purposes. The
lower area serves as seating outside of the studio for lounging or studying, or even sleeping.
The raised areas serve as display space for models.
68. BBRIDGED G E
The back wall is made of translucent glass as to allow in enough light so that the bridge
can be lit by natural light all throughout the day, only turning to artificial light when
the space is utilized at night. The cables spanning across this side also provide more
space to hang work.
RI
A screening device, on the opposite side, blocks a large part of the bright sunlight during the
day to allow for a more peaceful and relaxing space. The screen also works to provide a
versatile area as it also features an area to display work. The space is actually large enough
to be used for a small group review.
