This infill project addresses the need for affordable lodging in downtown Austin. The program combines a hostel and cafe with event spaces.
The narrow dimensions of the site made circulation and light pen-etration a key focus. Light wells throughout the building are also used to direct rainwater to cisterns in the basement.
The Black Cat Hostel with its combination of comfort, caffeine, and music would be the first hostel in downtown Austin, a city that sees thousands of bands and fans circulating through each year.

*Architectural Practice with Blank Studio
With this project we developed five different schemes for a transit-oriented affordable housing development with a commercial core to address the need for affordable and conve-nient housing for workers in the nearby town of Vail.
In this group project my primary role was that of project manager and renderer. I was charged with compiling our 100+ page sche-matic design and research paper, while teaching and developing renderings.

This project began as a response to a library redesign in my hometown. I saw flaws in the design, built 2010, and wanted to turn my criticism into a constructive solution.
By using a simple palette and application of materials, the building maintains a coherent vocabulary while responding to a complex program.

Phoenix, Arizona has 334 days of sunshine per year, has an area larger than Los Angeles, and is still growing.
By 2030 Phoenix is expected to hit a population of over 6 million.
Sprawl has long been a buzz word in the Phoenix Metro area,
but is becoming increasingly relevant as expansion continues.
This development poses the question:
“What will Phoenix’s new neighborhood look like?”

As the famous Bob Dylan song goes, “The times are a changing.” Major shifts in the economy and demographics are causing 50 million cultural cre-ative’s to rethink the fundamentals of how we eat, work, relate and live harmoniously on the planet. These cultural creative’s have a hunger for less stressful living, better health, greater respect for the earth and more connection to the world and each other. (Source: Paul Ray)
This trend towards simplification, sustainability and need for community generates an unprecedented opportunity for designers, developers and builders to reinvent outdated models of living such as age restricted gated golf communities, stucco McMansions and single family suburban dwellings, as these do not meet the needs or values of this rising tide of consumers. While there are some interesting emerging developments in the area of micro housing, pre-fab, modular housing, and intentional communities such as cohousing and eco villages—they have not hit the mainstream in any significant way.
With this project we create a vision for community based living that brings together the best of existing models in a new way—hence it is called “hybrid housing.” We have taken many of the best practices from the cohousing model and adapted it to an urban context. The objective here is to develop an intergenerational community-oriented model of living in Phoenix that is sustainable in every sense of the word, physically, socially and financially.

Vesta is an intergenerational neighborhood that brings together different models of cohousing neighborhoods.
The site is divided into separate but connected quads, with a common house that serves as a community center and gather-ing place. Commercial buildings have been included to generate income for residents, and buffer homes from the busy commercial district to the south.

SCHOOL OF HOPEKwe Ka Bung, Thailand BTI17105
For Burmese refugees living on the Thai border the only constant is change. For children to grow and thrive in an environment of constant change and upheaval they must be equipped with some very important tools. They must be empowered with a sense of purpose and a sense of ownership. In the same way that the building of a fort out of blankets and broomsticks carves out a sense of place, our school design must give the students a sense of control so that they can order their school and adjust it to fit their changing needs.
The challenge of this competition was balancing a modifiable, easily disassembled and reassembled building system with a sense of permanence and stability. Using the basic building block of a 1x2m panel, combined with a repeated truss and foundation system, we have developed a building that can be deconstructed to various degrees depending on the transportation options and available timeframe. These basic components then interlock and are lashed together providing removable connections that can withstand forces from all directions.
School of Hope Mae Sot, Thailand
competition with Maya Ward-KaretFil Choulramountry
This competition addressed the dearth of schools for the large population of Burmese refugees who now live in Thailand. The challenge of this project was balancing a modifiable, easily disassembled and reassembled building system with a sense of permanence and stability. Using the basic building block of a 1x2 meter panel, combined with a repeated truss and foundation system, we developed a building that can be deconstructed to various degrees depending on the transportation options available.
School of Hope Mae Sot, Thailand
The heart of the school is a central hall which acts as the main circula-tion for students. This space becomes a prominent front door and simultaneously acting as a forum in which students and teachers can gather and socialize. The stairs double as seating and act as an exten-sion of the dining area to encourage large community gatherings.
Sacramento Capitol Mall Competition Sacramento, CA
HONORABLE MENTION - McCamant and Durrett Architects
A CATALYST FOR COMMUNITY Sacramento’s capitol mall is a six block opportunity to revitalize the urban core of Sacramento. Using the story of Humphrey the humpback whale, who got stuck in the Sacramento river not once, but twice, as a source of inspiration throughout the design, we created a series of vignettes that frame iconic views within a new urban park. renderings by Jillian Brooks
