The URBAN FOLLY was designed to create a habitable oasis in the midst of the rigid urban setting of Savannah, Georgia. It o�ers a transition space between work, school and home that will be available as a positive means of deriving entertainment. The primary goal is to foster an unbiased community space that is sustainable by means that are readily available to those who will be most a�ected by the changes. This is achieved by providing green space that will be central to the appearance and social undertaking of equal access to entertainment regardless of economic standing.

The URBAN FOLLY was a collaborative endeavor between Megan Seibert, Rygelle Dowding, and myself for Professor A ’s Architecture Design Studio IV. Each team member equally contributed to the designing of the site plan. Although, each responsible for further developing the blocks for the project. I was given the task of creating the Amphitheater that was characterized by Roman styles and Moshe Safdie’s Vancouver Public Library.

Damage from natural disasters, like the recent earthquake, has exposed the weakness of not only Haiti’s building infrastructure, but also their lack of basic needs such as food and shelter.
Project_Rebuild’s goal was to counteract Haiti’s weaken infrastructure by rebuilding and improving the community through vocational education. The goal of the program would be to teach adults and teens vocations such as proper building techniques to create stronger buildings.

The City Hall Plaza was a urban design collaboration project between fellow SCAD graduate student Lee Ross Dinwiddie. The project was centered around the idea of creating a community space that functions to support local businesses, provide space for special functions, and serve to return the public to Douglas’s historic downtown. The design was to provide an existing vacant lot with adequate vegetation, public space, and special events accommodations.

Adjacent to the plaza is a proposed in- ll development of Madison Avenue that will follow very carefully the existing contextual styles and scales of the Douglas area. This development will occur in phases that will slowly work their way north along Madison Avenue; spaces will be ideal for retail, business, and residential tenants, and the project will conclude with a corner cafe and theater directly across Bryan Street.

The intent of this project was to design an addition to Lee Hall, Clemson University’s architectural school. My approach was to blend the spectacle with the logical. I intended for the building to show structural elements on the exterior and interior, inspired by Mies van der Rohe’s Crown Hall and OMA’s IIT Student Center.

The Context Design Group’s goal for the Liquid Highway Prototype was to develop a custom solution that would o�er a unique dining experience and attract attention from potential consumers. My contributions to the project were to provide construction drawings, 3D Renderings, and schematic design. David Lewis, Principle Architect of Context Design Group PPL, was the project architect.
