DESIGN PHILOSOPHY

My design looks to transforms a

space into an emotional experience.

Interior Architecture and design be-

come a juxtaposition between the

senses and the self, by ways of using

diverse textures, playful materiality

and unexpected elements.

Michelle Obama launched a mentoring program on Nov 2, 09 focused on

Creating a bridge between kids and the possibilities that can propel them to greatness.

Our studio worked closely with thefirst lady to adapt this program to a New York City Soho

storefront.

The New York City branch of the program is a comprehensive 12 month long program that focuses on

providing leadership trainning to young girls from low income publicly subsidized housing comunities in NYC.

Their main focus is in strenghtening their public speaking skills and all underlined strenghts that entail public

speaking; leadership, education, intercultural counselling and personal support; with the ultimate goal of provid-

ing career opportunities to better their future.

Design:

Our studio focused on integrating the historical reference and community awareness of thefirst lady as a

foundation to the design. A comfortable yet challenging blend of contemporary, antique, elegant, and honest in a

juxstaposition between neo classical styles and modern materialities.

I cant wait to wake up in the morning...

A lot of times I cant sleep because I

cant wait to try something new.

How many people never really experience

that feeling?

Playing for Change is a multimedia movement created

to inspire, connect, and bring peace to the world

through music. The idea for this project arose

from a common belief that music has the power to

break down boundaries and overcome distances be-

tween people.

Our design studio was given the task to provide a

space for these musicians and recorders to rest

and hang out, and what better place than the epi-

themy of street performers, the NYC Subway. Our

studio built a mobile resting space for this rotary

musicians.

Apple New York as part of their Playing for Change

Foundation philanthropic efforts decided to add

our recordings to their major marketing campaigns.

Apple has launched a new program in coordination with Play-

ing for Change. For the ultimate in micro-hoteling, this fully in-

sulated, recycled MTA subway car # r41 is fully equipped with

shower, bathroom, kitchen and living area with more than enough

space to fit 26 bed pods.

This hotel is one of several temporary structures that our stu-

dio has designed in conjunction with Apple Stores and Playing

for Change.

Zpods are stackable, prefab sleep pods. Each pod is ready for

sleeping , containing a bed, and air conditioning. Designed ex-

ploring the most efficient use of space and recycled materials.

At $40 a night. Traveling performers check-in via an Apple station

located in the ground floor of the subway station, next to the

Police station and upon payment are provided with a Pod Key.

The subway cart was completely refurbished using the same and

new recycled materials.

With all the ambience of a submarine, the pod is intended to just

provide you with a comfortable place to take a quick nap or an

overnight stay.
