DESCRIPTION
This portfolio contains work throughout my first 4 years of a 5 year program for my Bachelor in architectureTRANSCRIPT
The New York Music AcademyThe site is located in 448 Van Brunt Street, Brooklyn NY. The school consists of two hall a major and minor, amphitheater, school and administration. The main focus of this project was to make the school and admin area flows and intertwine with the halls.
This project is located at the corner of Suffolk and Broome Streets, Manhattan. The main concept of this project is to have the circulation as the core of the building and then the floors branching off it. The circulations move as how an infinite sign would flow. The service areas area located on the first floor and it includes a laundry room, storage, garbage room, and a lounge. This project consist of 2 one bedroom, 2 two bedroom and 3 three bedroom.

Community BuildingThis project is about forming a community with harmony and equality. When I think of harmony I think music, when I think of music and equality it reminds me of an equalizer. A void was design in the center of the building which was base on the move-ment of an equalizer. On each floor you can look down into this void and see a glimpse of the community on each floor. The ground floor consists of all public access such as a pool, gym, jogger path, daycare, laundry room, garbage room, storage room and lounge. These programs form a community where people can go and socialize and participate in every day life. The reason why a jogger path was added to the inside is because the walk way around the block was not suitable jogging. The reason for forming this community with in the building is to create greater socialization through arrangement of activates and program this rendering a sense of community and open environment.

Hudson Natatorium
This project is designed base on the wind and the sun. A wind path is created which runs throughout the building which allows natural ventilation throughout the programs and spaces. The programs are laid out base on the wind path and their functions. The pool area has a separate wind path from the wind path that passes through the building. Air flow into the pool are through its vertical openings and has the air is heated by body temperatures it rises and is releases through openings in the roof. The façade of the building is formed base on sun shading techniques which is a louver system that allows direct light into the building during winter and shades the build-ing during summer. The roof of the pool area is covered with solar panel in a checkers board pattern which gives the pool area a unique look while it’s being shaded by theses panels. There are two types of PV panels on the roof, the hot water PV and the electrical PV. The hot water panels are used to for the radiant floors which heat the building during the winter and the elec-trical panels are used to power the building and HVACs system that cools the building during the summer.
