The Billboard Project: Parasitic ArchitectureThe site is an unused billboard structure adjacent to a two lane highway. The billboard serves as a live-work shelter and is composed of a sleeping space, a food preparation space, storage, a bathroom, and an office space. The Idea of the design is to offer great views of the surrounding landscape with the use of glass, while protecting from the harsh rays of the Texas sun by using an aluminum skin system. This project was completed as a second year student.

The Menil ExtensionThe project is a 4,000 ft2 extension to Houston’s Menil Collection and has for goal to accommodate the museum’s drawing collection. The program specially calls for a drawing gallery with natural diffuse light, and a blackout gallery for light sensitive drawings. The idea of the project is that one could experience different light qualities; filtered light in the drawing gallery by the use of horizontal slats, reflected light on the second floor, and artificial lights in the blackout gallery.

Floating Boathouse
The floating boathouse is situated on Lady Bird Lake in Austin, Texas. With its 600 ft2 facility, it provides a platform both for the launching and mooring of kayaks. The program has an office for renting equipment, a storage space for kayaks and spaces for diving into the water. The idea of the project is to give a sense of monumentality to the boathouse so it becomes a landmark, and a beacon to the visitors.

The Bathhouse is a second year project located at Barton Springs in Austin, Texas. The scope of the project envolved analyzing the context of the site from topography to natural features to social conditions, and designing a 11,000 sf2 bathouse. The program includes an office, lockers, rinsing areas, storage, bathrooms, a main pool, a hot plunge, a cold plunge, four therapy rooms, a steam room, a dry sauna, a sun room, and a mechanical room. The intent of my design is to create distinct outdoor bathing spaces, and circulation areas around the river. Light is a crucial element in the design as it is used both to guide the user through the building, and create different lighting conditions throughout the project.
