About me...Eduardo Daniel Lam doesn’t only live life but experiences it to the fullest drawing inspiration from every source he comes across. Born in South America, Eduardo has Peruvian and Chinese blood coursing through his veins and his upbringings reflect both cultures. Uprooted to south Florida Eduardo excelled in his early studies and graduated from a Magnet Engineering program while at Stranahan High School. Soon after he ventured to the University of Miami and obtained a dual bachelor’s in Structural Engineering and Architecture.

A remarkable feature is that his scrupulous attention to detail and quick pace is no compensation for the production quality and reliability of his work. Eduardo invests every ounce of his fervor and talent into each project and undertaking he does. Having worked a wealth of internships, receiving his E.I. in engineering, working/studying internationally, and honing his crafts, Eduardo Lam is a designer in every sense of the word.

“Desgin is about mastering the practice of viewing the world through different lenses. One must possess the ability to simultaneously be mindful of the individual while considering everything from global issues to the finest of details.”

SOLUTION:□ Humanistic Design□ Internal vs External Focus□ Sustainability: Promotion of a healthy lifestyle

Think globally, act locally.

DESIGN:GROWWe need buildings that support

life. Personal growth leads to business growth and ultimately

global growth.

DETAIL:UPCYCLEThe process of converting useless products or waste

materials into a new product or material of better quality or of

higher value.

DELIVER:REVIALIZEWe need to be responsible for our own actions and work together to

Employees are encouraged to revisit their roots in order to reflect on a personal, business, and global level. A blance of private focus zones and collaborative zones

allow will promote self-actualization of the corporate environment.

Bistro

Every space is an opportunity to reflect the firm’s branding. Even mundane tasks in the copy room are brightened with clever and purposeful design.

Upcycling discarded wine paraphernalia gives the kitchen a raw translucent effect which sheds light on the firm’s up-front approach to design.

DESIGN:SUPPORTIVEHarmonious proportion of parts and elements create a blance

between spaces.

DETAIL:PERSONALClear signage and ample lighting provide seamless

wayfinding

DELIVER:WARMRibbed ceiling conditions ensure wandering patients are safe to

walk about these areas.

allow will promote self-actualization of the corporate environment.

PET scan room

A graphic wall provided wayfinding for users. Using the concept of an elephant’s journey we created landmarks as a way for the patients to use their current loca-

tion to recall other locations.

The five senses: An open floor plan for a bistro would remind patients to eat as the aroma would engage their sense of smell. Adjacent to the bistro is a music area to

ease the patients with nostalgic sounds.

Soft vs hard seating

Evidence Based Design:□ Signage should be legible, simple, and consistent for easy navigation.□ Wandering should be encouraged but controlled.□ Social interaction uses the brain’s cognitive function, engages the senses, and keeps the brain active.□ Connection to nature allows the patient to feel less constrained and more at peace.

An appropriate amount of environmental stimulation can have a positive effect on Alzheimer’s patients.

Conference room

The ceiling conditions inform the wandering path, and circles around nodes, so there is a seamless beginning and end. Furthermore, flooring changes should be subtle but with high contrast to verticle elements.

Flexibility of spaces is paramount for employees with limited office space. For example, A break room that doubles as informal work space.

The main body of the house can be shipped on one truck (to minimize shipping costs) and quickly deployed on the site. Sliding modules contract into the main

body during shipping and roll out a the site to maximize the floor area.

The design incorporates passive and active lighting strategies to create visual com-fort, promote energy efficiency, and utilizes dimmers for comfort levels based on

the age-in-place concept.

CADE MUSEUM OF CREATIVITY AND INNOVATIONCOMPETITION

Eggs are laid singly in a cell in a wax honeycomb, produced and shaped by worker bees.

Future InventorsGreat ideas are born from a strong foundation.

Worker bees cooperate to find food and in doing so collect pollen on their limbs, causing cross-pollination

Creative ThinkingInterdisciplinary collaboration is key to resolving any type of problem.

Early EntrepreneursIn order to reach our full potential we must be flexible to any situation.

The hive structure is a densely packed matrix of hexagonal cells that serve as multipurpose spaces.
