PROJECTS

Diffusion re-imagines the integration of a library

as a civic asset through drawing inspiration from

natural systems. By observing patterns in nature,

Diffusion is able to break down an existing rigid

structure and reconstructs the unused Navy

Management Building of North Charleston by

creating permeable and secure areas, separated

with a membrane for the community to pass

through.

By creating interconnected zones, it establishes

clear entry points and visual connections

between library and office spaces. This approach

addresses civic needs by connecting the building

and its use to the surrounding community,

including the adjacent park. Diffusion serves as

a community binder, offering job opportunities

and promoting lifelong learning and personal

development, and creating a vibrant space

where people can connect, grow, and thrive.

Arteria serves to collate various aspects of North

Charleston. It focuses on;

1. Estimated sea level over time

2. Historical and modern land-filling areas

3. Military presence in the Bend throughout time

4. Road + Railroad Nodes / Gridlines

Through viewing these layers of history and the

future, the complexity of North Charleston can

be seen and used as a departure point to create

purposeful architecture.

Tunnel of Trees serves to create a space where the natural environment can be viewed in a curated way. Through the compression and expansion of vertical and horizontal space, oppertunities for reflection and gathering are made. The collecting of log from species around the Luberon Mountains serves to provide and environment for these experiences.

Oppertunity extends beyond the interior and develops an interaction with the surrounding environment, sending spindles of light into the distance after they are shapes by by the cords of wood inside.

A collection of short-paced studies that focus on observing, researching, and communicating construction assemblies.

A series of light emitting objects that serve to influence and alter the perseption of a space through changing shadows and color.
