Preface
Matthew Ryan Bonnette
Throughout my life, architecture has been an interest which has been a driving force behind the paths I
have taken, leading me to where I am today. From a young age, I discovered what architecture was and
it became a dream of mine to obtain a degree and license in the practice of architecture.
I began taking an architecture and AutoCAD course in my senior year of high school at McNeil High School
in Austin. Upon taking the course, my interest in architecture grew. After graduating high school, I
attended Austin Community College in order to complete my core courses and continue education in
architecture. While at Austin Community College, I completed a number of courses in the study of
architecture and AutoCAD training. There I enrolled in a residential architecture course which sparked my
interest in residential architecture.
It was while I was enrolled at Austin Community College that I began working for Kipp Flores Architects,
an Austin based architecture firm specializing in single and multi-family dwellings with clients in twenty
nine states. Under the direction of Cary Kipp and Sabas Flores, I began training in site planning and
computer graphics. While working for Kipp Flores Architects, my role in the company has increased to
plan changes which includes working along side designers to find the best solutions to the problems at
hand, handling the companies graphic need for clients in both two dimensional and three dimensional floor
plan and elevation graphics, and beginning my IDP training hours for NCARB. My work with Kipp Flores
Architects has increased my interest in residential architecture, and has helped direct my career path.
Richard Mier once wrote about houses that, “symbolically they have always maintained a potent force,
both as a vivid representation of lives lived inside their walls and as a powerful influence over the changing
course of architecture over centuries”.
After completing most of my core courses at Austin Community College, I transferred to The University of
Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) College of Architecture. While there, I continued working thirty hours a week
with Kipp Flores Architects in Austin, and commuting to San Antonio for classes. At UTSA, I studied all
different aspects of design which has increased my interest in architecture and specifically in sustainable
design practices.

6
Project:
Design a multiuse building to occupy
the site located adjacent to Main
Plaza.
Requirements:
Street and River level must be made
up of commercial shops/eateries.
Second level must be made up of
offices. Finally, the third through sixth
floor must be made up of
residential living space. The building
must allow for pedestrian traffic from
Main Plaza to the Riverwalk, and the
structure should include an element of
green architecture.
Concept:
The concept for this multi-use building
is a sense of connectivity. The building
utilizes a large open center in order to
connect the residential, office and
commercial levels. The building also
utilizes a large opening on the main
plaza side which sees through to a
large perforated metal screen which
opens to the river. Finally, the building
uses design elements on the exterior
to help to connect the new structure to
the older structures which help to
make up main plaza.

College Recreation Center
Project:
Design a College Recreation Center to be utilized by the
students at the University of Texas at San Antonio
downtown campus.
Requirements:
Create the recreation center as one part in a two part
design. The recreation center will be located on the same
lot as the Swim Center and should be designed to
connect with the future swim center.
Concept:
The concept for this project although it may seem simple,
is recreating community through the design of a building.
After studying communities starting with large scale cities
down to residential communities all of which keep a
similar aspect. At the center of the community there is an
area which is highly accessed by the community, as the
rings start expanding out from the center the spaces
begin to be less entire public oriented and more oriented
to users with specific needs, until we end up in the private
living which is no longer public space. I intend to
represent this by placing at the center of the building the
locker/bathrooms since this is a place which will need to
be accessed by all users of the building, and then begin
expanding out with areas such as the café, basketball
and tennis courts since these are areas of high interest to
many of the users. Since the site is small the expanding
rings will begin to expand upwards where the second
floor is composed of cardio, weights and specialty
workout rooms, and beginning on the third floor will be the
outer ring of private living areas. The living areas will be
organized to promote community with a central congre-
gating terrace, with the apartments forming an outer ring
around the terrace.

Farmers Market
PROJECT: Design a Farmers Market for the use of the people of San Antonio, located at 1500 S. Zarzamora Street San Antonio, TX, 78207-7210. The Farmers Market will be located behind San Antonio Produce Terminal. The
Farmers Market is to include places for the sale of produce goods, meat goods, dining facilities, permanent vendors as well as temporary or seasonal vendors.
CONCEPT: Farmers Markets are typically seen as a shopping destination for the health conscious individuals who wish to take care of their bodies by eating healthy farm fresh produce. Because of this, the Farmers Market was
designed to promote outdoor activity for the customers who visit the market. There is a large outdoor vendors plaza for temporary vendors to set up kiosk between the plaza’s clock tower and reflection pond. The retail
vendors are located at one end of the market and all the food based shopping is based at the other end of the market. This it to allow for the smells of all the fresh meats, produce and bakeries to intermix to create a
pleasant aroma for the customers of the market. Both the meat market and produce market buildings use an accordion style windows and doors to allow the market spaces to be fully opened up creating a natural air
flow in and around the buildings. The market also incorporates many environmental features. The market takes advantage of rain fall for water harvesting to be used to water surrounding vegetation, clean floors and
parking areas, as well as in the bathroom facilities. The market also takes advantage of the suns natural energy with the use of solar panels on the grounds and on the roofs of the buildings to harvest the suns energy.
This energy is used to power the many electrical items of the market as well as to heat water on the grounds. Also, since almost everything at the market is compost able, the market takes advantage of this in recycling
its by products to produce compost fertilizer to be reused to help grow new plants. These environmental features are proudly displayed in the market to show the customers how the market is run and that the Farmers
Market is doing its part for the environment.
FEATURES:
-ENVIRONMENTAL FEATURES
-RECYCLING/COMPOST: Compost is formed when organic matter (material that comes from plants or animals) decomposes aerobically (with oxygen). The resulting nitrogen- and carbon-rich substance can be added
to soil to improve its structure, provide and hold soil nutrients, prevent erosion, and encourage beneficial insects and microorganisms.
WHAT IS COMPOST ABLE
Fruit, vegetables, meat, poultry, seafood, shellfish, bones, rice, beans, pasta, bread, cheese, and eggshells, oyster shells, burritos (without foil wrappers), etc. waxed cardboard, napkins, paper towels, paper
plates, paper cups (without lids) paper milk cartons, tea bags, coffee grounds/filters, floral trimmings, tree trimmings, leaves, grass, brush, weeds, paper plates, paper coffee cups, and "bio-plastics," which look
like plastic but are made out of corn, soy, potatoes, or other organic materials.
-DUAL AXES TRACKING SOLAR PANELS: A dual axis tracking system is a system that follows the sun in multiple angles ensuring that the sunbeam angle is 100% correct on the panel. By tracking the sun, the efficiency
of the solar panels can be increased by 30-40%. The dual axis tracking system is also used for concentrating a solar reflector toward the concentrator on heliostat systems.
-SOLAR AND PREMIUM METAL ROOFS: Metal roofing on all buildings which is the ideal roofing material to maximize rain water harvesting from the roof tops of building. Inserted between the standing seams are
premium solar panels used to collect the suns energy and convert it into electricity.
-RAIN WATER HARVESTING: The tanks are constructed from a linear low polyethylene membrane laid on a compacted sand base. Inside the tank are specially constructed void expanders that support the structure
and are strong enough to build over when the tank is completed. Once the tank is in place, it is protected by an outer wrapping of geotextile mesh and buried below ground level. The recycled
water is returned to a dual water system in the roof of the building for use.

Immigration Museum
Project: Design an Immigration museum for the people of San
Antonio to be located at the corner of Nueva Street and St Marys
Street. The Museum will house exhibits showing the different
cultures of America and to tell the stories of the immigration from
other countries into America.
Concept: America is made up of many different cultures from all
over the world. America was started as a country for
immigrants, with new immigrants entering the country each year.
I wanted the building to be an attraction that would be seen as
another tourist attraction to add to San Antonio, as well as a
place where the citizens of San Antonio would visit multiple
times. Because of this, I wanted the building to have a very
appeasing as the tic appearance. The building is located right on
the San Antonio River, which is already a very popular attraction
for tourist as well as the citizens of San Antonio. The Building
promotes a lot of Curtain Glazing to help bring in natural lighting
into the building to light the exhibits. Because some of the
exhibits could be harmed by direct natural lighting there are
Curtain walls behind the glazing to help allow the light into the
building while also diverting the natural light away from the
exhibits. The building is made up of six large cast concrete
partitions which are unfinished both inside and out. The
buildings first floor consist of a cafe with both indoor and outdoor
seating for visitors to eat while at the museum. Also, there is a
gift shop for visitors to purchase different items to remember their
trip to the museum. The first floor also houses the largest exhibit
space for the exhibits which are fairly constant in the museum. In
the second floor there is the traveling exhibit space for special
exhibits that might come through the San Antonio area. The
basement is dedicated to the storage and preservation of
exhibits. The museum also houses its own theater space for
presentations and immigration history movies.
