The Urban GameThe New University of Oregon Campus is designed through the Genera ve Process. The Genera ve Process is a process that is con-tributed by mul ple designers. In this case, the campus is designedby 3 diff erent individual collabora ng with each other through agame system in which each person may make a proposal whichthen is accepted or rejected based on a pre-determined rules basedon Christopher Alexander’s “The Oregon Experiment”. The generalrules are as follow:

Rule 1: Diverse GrowthRule 2: The Growth of Larger WholesRule 3: A Concrete Vision

The Main Reading RoomAt the end of the spiral ramp is the main reading room, the grand gesture and fi nal reward for users that utilize the ramp. The reading room is not only the fi nal desti-nation where the public and academic can gather and interact, but also is an architectural landmark of the campus, providing views to the the Union Station tower as well as Mount Hood beyond.

Generative Design

The library is constructed out of post-tension concrete fl oor slabs to maximize span distance without large overhead beams. The facade of the building utilizes a curtain wall system withaluminum panels. Metal framing is then used to support the perforated corrugated metalscreen. The color yellow is spray painted onto the screen to imrpove light quality as well asasethetics.

The yellow pattern is dervied from the ramp sequence, and returns the building to the root of generative design, where the pattern is based on a defi ned set of rules. Divided into three sections, the yellow color becomes more dense as at the corners of the ramps as they becomecorners for activities and interactions for the users of the library.

The 25-Year

Vision Plan

Mixed-Use DevelopmentLocated on the Columbia River in between the states of Washing-ton and Oregon, Hayden Island is an island mainly populated by an older, boating community with residences either living on the island or on boat houses.

With the new plan to widen and expand the I-5 bridge to ease the traffi c between Oregon and Washington, there is an opportunity to make Hayden Island a more transit-friendly, sustainable and vibrant community. The 25-Year Vision Plan calls for the south side of the island closest to the I-5 bridge to be the “downtown” of the island and assimulates small square blocks in downtown Portland. The proposed mixed-use project will replace the only existing Safeway super market that will be torn down for the I-5 bridge redesign. The supermarket is not only a place for grocery for the island residence, but also a place for informal gatherings and a community center.

The proposed Mixed-Use project includes a grocery store, offi ce for Lower Columbia River Esturary Partnership, a Culinary school to promote healthy living on the island.

At the beginning of the term, our studio researched about sanitation in slums and refugee camps around the world, the studio identifi ed the 3 main issuesthat needs to be addressed by the Clean Hub:

1. Clean Water 2. Power 3. Sanitation

After doing the research, our studio, led by professor John Dwyer, began to design the Clean Hub that could be quickly and effi ciently shipped to neededarea using a donated shipping container. The Clean Hub would serve as a catalyst for a recovering community by providing the 3 facilities listed above.

ideal sustainablecommunity

Flexible water tank holds 4,400 gallons of water, can be shipped to disasterarea fi lled with water, supplemented with collected rain water.

Large metal roof provides shadesand serves as rain water collector, storing into water tank.

Solar panel provides electricity topower lights for security and alsoto power composting toilet.

Composting toilet treats human wastes on site. Minimizing requiredonsite sewage system.

009 Minnesota LEED Certifi edOffi cially certifi ed as a LEED “Certifi ed” in 2009, Walser Subaru is the fi rst certifi ed car dealership building in the state of Minnesota.

All electrical power for the facility is windgenerated. Waste oil from oil changes is burned to providesupplemental heat. Other features include a solar refl ective roof system, andspecialized glazing and in-fl oor radiant heat.

Design InvolvementAmong the fi rst of many, Walser Subaru is also the fi rst project I had the opportunity topersonally over-see from the initial design phase, creating construction documents, andcoordinate with various engineers andcontractors on and off the site until theconstruction in fi nished. Walser Subaru wascompleted in 2008.

Design InvolvementAt over 225,000 sq ft., BMW of Minnetonka is the largest project that I have personally overseen. The project is notable for its well thought out plans, ef-fi cient site use, and stunning interior spaces.

Being able to work in the fi rm that was the lead design architect gave me the opportunity to work extensively in all phases of the design. From interacting with the client, to coordinating with engineers and contractors, and even per-sonally attending weekly construction meetings and overseeing the construc-tion process. Working on a project of this signifcant scale revealed to me the everyday challenges of being an architect, but also allowed me to experience the satisfaction of seeing a project transform from lines on a piece of paper, into a fi nished building.

Choice Audio Inc. 2005-2009 Minnesota

Design InvolvementWhile Choice Audio Inc. is committed to providing high-end audio and video systems to personal home theaters for optimal performance, there is also opportunity for unique and beautiful interior design.

Working as a consultant at Choice Audio Inc., I had the opportunity to capture the client’s visions for their home theater and incorporate them with the technical audio and visual equipment needed to realize their visions. The results provided beautiful interiors that performs at a high level in both audio and visualquality.
