new orleans school of dancet a n z a k a d e m i eThe New Orleans School of Dance is a comprehensive design project incorporating building systems and code into a creative center for dance in the heart of the Warehouse District of New Orleans. Situated near the WW2 Center and the French Quarter, this dance school acts as a beacon for exuberance and change. A living facade will continuously change the appearance of the school throughout the seasons as the native plants bloom and grow.

urban intervention roma, italiaThis urban intervention infi lled a vacant lot along Via Giulia that was riddled with old ruins. Straddling history and the need for new amenities, the arts and music school adds a much needed level of entertainment to Roma through its integration of outdoor gardens and collaborative student housing.

Morgan City, LAThe Morgan City Shrimp and Petroleum Museum is located along the Atchafalaya River. Shrimping and the oil industry are vital to the city yet also pose challenges. As the levee wall protects against future fl ooding from the river, it also creates a visual barrier. This museum seeks to create a new connection through the levee wall via its bridge-like form.

Mexico City, MexicoA detailed case study was done on Enrique Norten’s House LE in order to propose an intervention. After studying the residence, it was necessary to propose an extended louver screen. Wrapping around the front of the house, the continuation of the louvered screen maintains an element of privacy while creating a cohesive physical appearance.

Working closely with two materials, the challenge was to balance a piece of 12”x16”x0.75” plywood. The thin edge of plywood was the only piece allowed to touch the ground. The concept was to have the wood fl oat above the simple vertical plane at a skewed angle. Acrylic was chosen so that the connection between the plywood pieces was concealed. In plan view none of the support system is visible and the wood planks simply hover.
