4. Academy of
Science
Architecture II
This studio is sub-named the
“Urban Design” studio, as this
is the first time we get exposed
to designing within an urban
setting. This studio is designed
towards the perception of a
building more than itself, is
to look at a building and its
functions within its context. For
this project, a city was chosen
and within that city was to be
selected a conflicted site, that
site was to be resolved by an
architectural intervention. The
city chosen for my proposal
was Venice, the particular site
was the island of San Giorgio
Maggiore, pre-existing historical
spaces on this site include the
Church of San Giorgio Maggiore
by Andrea Palladio as well as
the Refactory also by Palldio
and the Maggiore Monastery.
SITE PLAN
Design Studio:
6. The proposal for the intervention in this site was a Academy of
Science, two elements were to be taken in relation to the chosen
city, in my case the two elements were water and earth. Those two
elements were to be articulated into two spaces in the academy,
water into an aquarium, and earth into a greenhouse. The main
concept used for the articulation of the Academy of Science was
the concep of the “The City as a Monastery” from Collin Rowes’
writings. The building becomes an “L” shape that connects
Palladio’s famous Refactory at the existing San Giorgio Maggiore
to the dormitory section of the monastery, this master” plan idea
was that of turning the whole island into a monastery in terms of its
spatial transition, the island consisted of pre-exising strcutures such
as the: Churc of San Giorgio Maggiore of course, the Tearo Verde,
The Cinni Foundation and the Manica Lunga, along with the new
Academy of Science the Island would become an Art complex that
would offer all of the arts, all comunicated just like a monasery.
10. Arlington Museum of Art:
Addition
This project seeks to have an addition adjacent to the existing
Arlington Museum of Art, this was going to bring a building to the
site that served as an addition but also function on its own, having
its own entry, and facilities separate from the pre-existing bulding.
The Process for the designof this additon stated with two plates,
the first one had three hirerachically organized grounds, primary,
secondary, and terciary. The second plate was apporached by
adding elements to the first one from a precedent, mine was the
Exeter Library by Louis Kahn, elements from the plan as well as
the section were added to the composition.
This would later become the footprint for my design of the
addition, and those three grounds would be extruded to become
the volumes that would constitute my proposal.
The final and main volume was a square that housed all of the
program, the Galleries, the classroms, the offices, the restaurant
and the giftshop.

22. Astronomer’s Lodge
Design Studio I
Architecture I
The Astronomer’s Lodge is
located in Fort Davis, Texas in
the McDonalds’s Observatory.
This project is a renovation of
the old obsarvatory into a more
modern intervention, the project
also required the addition of more
indivisual rooms as well as a group
due to the large amounts of people
that were gathering to the see the
new telescope that was fairly new,
this also atracted a large number
of renowned Astronomers and
masters in other related fields. My
rennovation included a new central
building that housed all of the public
spaces, the lobby, the restaurant,
a gymnasium for the guests, on
the entry level. on th lower level,
there was the gruop room for the
large amounts of people that would
occasionally gather, school trips,
conventions, etc. This lower level
also had a classroom for activities
along with a reading room adjacent
to it for educational purposes. Four
suites were added to the complex
for the astronomers or professionals
of other related fileds.

24. Kane’s Residence:
Design Studio I
Architecture I
This project was to design a residence
for a married couple. The husband
was a carpenter and the wife was
an architect. The program for the
residence included: a woodshop for
the husband separate from the house, a
studio for the wife that incorporated the
aspect of natural light, and guest rooms
for when their sons came to spend time
with them.
The site of the house was a hill,
therefore; the design was apporached
through the steepness of the site itself.
The main spaces of the house were
located in a two story cube shaped
structure, with a double volume over
the living area, entertainment area and
the bedroom would have a lookout from
the second floor to this volume. In that
same platform, the studio for the wife
was located on the south elevation, a
glass curtain wall covered this elevation
along with a Brise-Soleil to provide with
shading in certain times of day.
32. Collectors’ Library
Basic Design + Draw I
This project was called the Collector’s House, for this house we were to select
a type of collection, for my design the collection was sculptures. The program
for the house had to include but was not limited to: a kitchenette, a bathroom, a
main space that had to include a double volume, that would serve as the exibition
space for the particular collection and last but not least a loft on the second floor
that overlooked the exibition space. a balcony coming out of the exinition space
had to be included also and natural light had to incorporated into the design.
