design / buildUBC sustainabilityvancouver, BCaugust 2014

As part of a massive infrastructure upgrade UBC undertook to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and increase energy efficiency, an opportunity arose for a small team of four architecture students to design, manufacture, and construct a timber wrap to beautify a shipping container and bring awareness to the sustainability upgrade.

The shipping container, located in the middle of campus at the crossroads of Main Mall and University Boulevard, housed all the generators and heat exchanges to facilitate the upgrade and would exist for up to three years. To ensure the longevity of the structure, marine grade plywood was used for the timber skin and treated teak lumber for the double frame. To achieve a seamless fit, each of the 500 pieces of lumber were CNC routed for a lap-jointed construction. From design to completed construction the project two months and was completed on schedule and on budget.

graduate thesisgander, NLdecember 2014

Research for this graduation project addressed how architecture can be used to express identity, its ability to foster the cultural growth of communities, as well as the impact architecture can have as a cultural medium in daily life. No where is this more evident than the town of Gander, Newfoundland, where the international airport the town was founded upon is the defining monument of the community.

This is a project about the needs of a community, the conservation of Canadian heritage, the adaptive reuse of a modernist structure, and the values of continuous architecture. With the town emanating from the runways, the airport was both source of livelihood and the heart of the community. However advances in aviation lead to the drastic decline in traffic at the once busiest airport in the world, and the oversized terminal has become an unmanageable burden. With a new smaller terminal building planned, and the fate of the current structure uncertain, This thesis investigates re-purposing the historic building as a new cultural institution that once again makes it the core of the community.

This one month studio project was located at the Vancouver Public Library Kitsilano Branch at Macdonald and 8th Avenue with the aim of increasing neighborhood density while expanding the libraries presence. One of the most relevant aspects of the site is the proposed rapid transit system along the Broadway corridor to replace the existing 99B line. This system will vastly change the neighborhoods it cuts through, with the City establishing that an increase in affordable housing and office space essential in order for the plan to be successful.

This proposal doubles the library space while retaining the existing footprint by creating a basement level that connects with the Skytrain line below. The housing units will be prefabricated off site of wood and dimensioned as to be easily transported on flat bed trucks for quick assembly. The units themselves range from one to three bedrooms to accommodate the student, young professional, and young families that are typical of the Kitsilano neighborhood.

The Delta landfill is located in a peri-urban area that is dominated by agricultural land reserve. While a great deal of food is produced on the lands surrounding the landfill, in the province of British Columbia, only 48% of the food consumed annually is produced by BC farmers. There are many exotic fruits and vegetables that are consumed in impressive quantities, such as bananas for example, that are not produced at all in B.C. In addition to the waste that is delivered to the landfill, there is a large quantity of compost. At present, the compost is left in open windrows, where the heat it produces (70C) is released to the surrounding air.

In this project proposal, heat generated from the anaerobic compost process is captured and used in combination with captured rainwater to heat a greenhouse that grows fruits and vegetables commonly consumed in B.C., but not typically grown here. Inspired by the u-pick operations in the area, the project takes 2 steps further, to include an instructional kitchen and dining area, so that visitors can not only learn how these exotic plants grow, but also how to cook with them.

In collaboration with Katrina Szekely
