Everything else on this site is built on what happens here: semesters of drawing, modeling, and defending design decisions at review. Click any project to open it.

A working fish market on the Miami River. A stone arcade opens the waterfront back to the public, with the market floor at the water and terraces above the arches. Sited against the downtown skyline and designed from the river inward.

A drawn analysis of the Uffizi. Reconstructing the gallery's spatial logic in line: perspective, proportion, and the procession of rooms, then testing how the same section reads at three different times of day.

A 48-unit mixed-use apartment building: studios, one-beds, and two-beds stacked over ground-floor retail, organized around a street-level arcade. Massing, unit aggregation, and the space between buildings, worked through isometric modeling.

After Buckminster Fuller. Building the geometry of the icosahedron, then the Fly's Eye Dome it generates, one construction step at a time. I told the whole thing as a five-volume manga rather than a standard board, because the geometry deserved better than a bullet list. Read it in order below.

A case study of the Side Yard House, a residential dwelling type organized around a garden run down one side of the lot rather than a rear yard. Site plan, roof plan, elevations, and massing, drawn to be read side by side.

A close reading of the Richard Moore Kemp House at 601 Caroline Street, Key West: built in 1888 in the Key West/Bahamas style after the original Kemp home burned down. Documenting and redrawing a built work, down to the front door and the porch railing, to understand its decisions from the inside.

"Controlled Irregularities": a fluid roof built from a field of panels deformed by a single attractor point in Grasshopper, testing how one parametric rule generates variation across an entire surface without losing control of it.
The work doesn't stop at the screen. I build physical models and know my way around the shop: laser cutter, 3D printer, CNC router, and the rest of the machinery. Proof of craft, not just renders.
