4. Sioux Falls School for Performing Arts
The Sioux Falls School for Performing Arts is a project sited in downtown sioux falls in
the cultural district of the area. The ASchool was meant to be an extention of the new
york film academy. The programatic breakdown of the project is a mix of performing
space with a precinium theatre and a black box, support spaces, public space, and the
school. The challenge is to fit all these programs together in a relatively small site. The
entrance sequence to this building raises the users seven feet above grade, creating
a point of seperation from the real world to the performance. Sinking all the support
spaces halfway into the ground, the public is unaware of their existance as they enter
into the main public lobby. This space takes the form of a large glazed and limestone
atrium that sits like a gem placed in the center of the building. The school and perfor-
mance areas wrap the public in an increasing slope as the journy of school moves to
the climax of the performance. The majority of the building is skinned with a thin steel
sheeting that is perferated to allow natural light through areas with glazing behind. The
larger cut out reviels show areas that have classrooms and offices behind while the
rehersal rooms and common areas of the school are kept vailed from the public. The
school focuses on traditional parforming arts with seperate floors for music on the top
floor, theater below, followed by dance, general acedemics, and faculty offices. All us-
ers utilize the same main circulation in the glazed atrium. Other than this the only mix
between public and student is in the performance while everything leading up to the
climax is veiled from public view.

Archiving the Vasari Corridor
This project was a collaborative effort to research and archive the Ponte Vecchio bridge
in Florence, Italy. This portion of the project focused on the Vasari corridor. The research
of the corridor consisted mostly of the history surrounding changes made to the cor-
ridor. This along with other information about different aspects of the Ponte Vecchio
were documented in a cumulative digital archive. The research lead to a study of two
aspects regarding the corridor. The first is to piece together information recorded
about the changes made to recreate the Ponte Vecchio and corridor as it would have
been in the sixteenth century when it was built. The second portion was a study on
the corridors role in the city and how it relates to the urban fabric that it embeds itself
within. Both of these concepts were studied together through drawing and modeling
in both conceptual and factual methods. The ultimate result of the studio was a col-
laborative book which included the archived information and each respective project.

John Hejduk Archive
The John Hejduk archive is an in-fill project located at the northeast entrance to the
Judengang in Berlin. The Judengang is a significant site to Berlin’s history culturally and
spiritually serving as a passage for Jewish funeral processions through the city. John
Hejduk, while being an influential American educator, has had many influential proj-
ects in Berlin including his Berlin Masque Project that was used as a precedent. The
project objective was to design an archive that would house the work of John Hejduk
while reincorporating the Judengang into the urban fabric. Similar to Hejduk’s Ber-
lin Masque project, the program took the form of four “characters” which were stud-
ied through collage. Each collage was a study to create spacial ideas for a mourner,
scholar, traveler, and a caretaker. The form of the proposal was driven by the ideas
explored in the Collage for the Traveler and creating spaces for each. The proposed
building touches the site lightly out of respect for the Judengang and is occupied by the
mourner. Each level above it is offset of each other to create complex relationships of
spaces by creating a separation and unification through form, circulation, and program.

Nine Square Grid
This project is an adaptation of the widely known nine square grid studio proj-
ect that was introduced by the educator John Hejduk. Through the simple for-
mat of the nine square grid module, the project explores a complexity in the
organization of the spacial ideas of continuous, static, repetitive, and open
spaces. Early studies of grid patterns derived a complex grid to be laid out on all
plains of the project. Conditions of exterior vs. interior space, transparency vs.
opacity,and color affected by the complex grid creates the programmatic spac-
es. The grid drives the organization of space as well as proportions of transpar-
ent to opaque wall. The color creates a hierarchy within the grid acting upon
the existing conditions of the project by the shifting, addition, and subtraction
of material. All of these conditions work to fortify the spatial conditions set up.

Kansas Street Mall
This project was a collaborative design build project located in Huron, South
Dakota. The site was located in the town’s historic downtown area that in re-
cent years has fallen into an increasing state of disrepair. The lot that was
chosen links Kansas Ave to Dakota Ave which is the main street of downtown.
The goal of the project was to begin to revitalize the downtown by creating
a communal “pocket park” to draw the population back to the down town
district. Working together with the town to find their visions for the site, the
class designed a precast installation through means of scale modeling, draw-
ing, and full size panel testing. The resulting design was a pair of precast
walls. One ran the length of the site while the other called attention vertically
to a studio skylight that existed on the site. Both walls are made of modu-
lar precast panels with a historic map of the town etched onto the surface.

Farmer of the Year
This project was a design for an annual farmer of the year celebration that would
take place on the campus of South Dakota State University. The project began with
figure ground style field studies of crop grown on the campus green. The proposal
that arose was a redesign of the campus green for the farmer of the year celebration
that would take place at the same time as the SDSU homecoming celebration, Hobo
Day. The redesign incorporate a field that would act as the Farmer of the Years’ final
yield before their retirement. The farmer would harvest the field as part of the Hobo
Day parade. A residence for the farmer to live in for the year, A cafe and performance
area were also added to the green. The second half of the project was to design the
farmers residence. This proposal was an investigation in “parasite” architecture that
was built onto the side of the university Campanile. The design Includes the farmers
private residence as well as two new additions of multi use spaces for the university.
