Architecture tends to point and communicate with itself through more than one final output. The drawing communicates to the physical model, the model talks to the text and the text specifies things in the drawing which helps understand the totality of the project. In some ways, “connect the dots” can be used as a metaphor to illustrate architecture’s ability to associate one idea with another, to find the “big picture” in a mass of data and information. This notion towards connection was a fundamental subject within this project. This image was broken into four stages/parts; Output (Data), Massing (Volume), Texture (Surface), Picture (Composition), which were used to create a large pictorial landscape. Each of the four parts act independently from one another but are simultaneously used in support towards the final “Big Picture” .

A project that explored the potential of optical effects in a digital and physical environment. Becoming familiar with color interaction, scripting, video making, UV ink printing and AR personal device capabilities this project engaged in a conversation on the ambiguous power of contemporary materials and their unparalleled ability to produce new forms of imagination.

A project that questions the temporality of architecture within modern culture by creating pop-up venues within DTLA. Architectural trends are updated into a “slang aesthetic” where each space visually represents a particular word while maintaining the ability to change as popular culture shifts. These momentary spaces, represented by a large 3D image relief, have the ability to not only be physically non-permanent but suggest a digital presence through interactive AR, making the experience transitory through the use of a mobile device. This project creates something new by drawing from the linguistics of slang and updating the recognizable to fit the desires of popular experience today.
