Flavaboom
New York, 2011
Project architect under the direction of Dune’s principal Richard Shemtov.
“Flavaboom” is Dune’s first integral Interior design and production project; our work started with concept boards and continued all the way to design development, construction documents and production of all pieces of custom furniture millwork, lighting and coordination of construction, plumbing and equipment.
My work consisted of translating the principal’s vision into a cohesive design; detailing and specifing everything for the project and coordinating the entire fabrication/construction process.
The main concept was a self serve enviroment that felt like a laboratory and brought the frozen yogurt parlor to the 21st century. Clean white walls and a “yummy” color palette for the furniture with sturdy durable materials are the core elements of the design.
This project has received quite a lot of press and it is currently nominated for best of the year by interior design magazine.

The clean integration of furniture and millwork into the project is one of the defining features of this design and a staple of Dune’s work.
The absence of visible supports, the use of concealed hardware, the interactivity of the lighting systems and the overall simplicity of lines create the futuristic clean laboratory look that the client desired.

Titan Seating
DUNE - ENAMORED COLLECTION 2010
Titan is a progressive new design with a nod to the past. The deep seat and set back arms were designed with lounging, reading and pondering in mind. The legs recess into hollowed round grommets and highlight the tapered underside of the piece. The sofa and chair are made with polyurethane foam upholstered over a wood frame with brushed aluminum legs in a satin finish.
The Titan sofa has been featured in several magazines and design blogs including:
• Interior design magazine/ market tabloid (fall 2010)• Intramuros magazine No. 150• 3 Rings• Yanko design • Contemporist• The Architecture Daily

Copan Ruinas, Honduras 2006 -2008
This project was born from the need to expand the laboratories and sculpture storage facilities of the Copan archeological site. The project had several unique requirements such as:
1. the building could only grow the footprint in one direction for a width of 20 feet by 160 feet because the rest of the site contains archeological remains of importance2. around 35,000 pieces of sculpture had to remain inside the building in order to complete the construction on time and on budget3. the construction code for this area does not permit buildings more than two stories high.
My original involvement in project included researching the use of the existing building to define a list of spaces, areas and special requirements for the new building; creating a conceptual design and zoning of the building; defining a general budget for architectural design and construction;
presenting the project to the World Bank to procure funds. Once the funds were obtained my role evolved into liaison between the Honduran goverment and the archietctural firm V&V Cuadra in charge of the DD and CD. I also supervised the construction phase.
Other facts:
• The building has a footprint of 30,650 square feet and a built area of 46,250 sf.
• the design process lasted 8 months
• The construction time was 14 months
• 35000 pieces of sculpture were moved and arranged within the building during construction.

"Copan" Restoration Lab.
RESTORATION LAB AT THE SCULPTURE MUSEUM, COPAN RUINAS, HONDURASProject done in collaboration with Arch. Carlota Valladares.The sculpture museum in Copan is the second largest museum in Honduras and holds a substantial Mayan sculputure collection recovered by various archeologists over the past 120 years of
investigation in Copan. Currently some of the investigations are being conducted by Harvard University, UPenn, ASCOPAN, and local archeologists assigned by the Honduran Institute of Anthropology and History IHAH.
Despite the presence of a center for investigations located 5 miles away from the main archeological site, Harvard University and UPenn are interested in having a small laboratory dedicated to the summer courses and practices that both institutions organize every year in Copan. the IHAH assigned an empty space at the sculpture museum to be utilized for these purposes.
The program for the project consisted of 3 main spaces:
1. Conference room / library for 8-10 people conference table and 10 chairs book storage AV equipment
2. Laboratory 4 workstations fume extraction equipement work island for teaching demostrations
3. Sculpture restoration 2 sand beds 4 workstations open storage delicate equipment

Yojoa Lake, Honduras
Architectural design for a summer house located on the north shore of Yojoa Lake in Honduras.The program required a simple 2 bedroom 2 bathroom structure that could be prefabricated.
In order to reduce cost and time, the design was based on a modular size/form for all the structural members and incorporated the use of light weight materials for the walls and roof.
The louvered system used on the front facade of the house varies in density responding to 2 variables, solar gain and privacy.
The total footprint of the house is 165 sq.m or 1750 sq. f.
The only elements planned to be built on site are the fundation, back wall and entrance stoop partition which are built with local quary stone and serve as anchor for the rest of the building.

Peable Cabin
Santa Lucia, Honduras
Studio size cabin proposed as a model for a vacation community set in the mountains of Santa Lucia (located 30 minutes from Tegucigalpa).
The construction is proposed to be done in platforms on poles to accomodate the different topographies of the site. The shell of the house on the uphill side is made as a waffle wooden structure with a fiber core and a steel grid of 1/4” rods covered with 2” of “shot-crete” on each side of the wall / roof.
The down hill side of the house presents the more interesting views and receives the most sun and wind. On this side the houses are provided with an irregular grid of window panels at varying angles to create different reflections and refractions inside and outside of the house.
The design is in the concept phase.

Unfinished idea for the Future Arc Competition for a green office building in Jakarta. The program suggested an office area of around 10,000 sq meters plus a water park of around 16,000 sq. m.
My concept was to integrate the two sub programs and transpose the areas; mixing them and creating a more interesting office area that uses the water to contribute to cooling of the building.
The oversized slabs create enough shade in the areas exposed to the south and west while they serve as outdoor areas for the offices in the floors above.

℄
“Casa Kinich” children’s museum was conceived as an interactive, low technology and low cost exhibition that showcases and juxtaposes the science of archeology with the daily live of the Mayans. The exhibits were design by Platypus studio in California, while the script was developed by the Copan Association. My main role during this process was to detail and finalize the exhibit fabrication drawings and supervise the production and construction process.
The content of the exhibits is displayed in Spanish, English and Chortí (the native Mayan language of the region). All exhibits are built with durable, local and easy to replace materials. Ninety percent of the exhibits require absolutely no electricity to work; this is extremely important since the town of Copan has power outages every other day.
The museum is free to all visitors and serves as an educational vehicle whereby archeology and Mayan history become accessible to local children.

"Jenga Concept Building" 15CONCEPTUAL EXCERSICE 2012
The “Jenga” concept building is a study based on the idea of positive and negative space using the popular game Jenga as a formal concept. The idea is to create a tower that uses 2/3 of each floor as positive space and 1/3 as negative space. The practical uses for this concept can be in the areas of natural ventilation, cooling and reduce wind resistance (lateral loads) just to mention a few.
Since the project is only going to be used as a concept idea the study was created as a grasshopper definition based on 5 points. 4 Points define the paralelogram used as the base footprint of the building. the fifth point is used a drver for the morfosis of the building being this rotation, scale, taper, etc.
