DWELLING STOPPAGEFINALIST FOR QUEBEC REPRESENTATION IN CANADIAN PAVILION AT VENICE ARCHITECTURE BIENNIAL 2012
DESIGN-RESEARCH PROJECT SUBMITTED TO MIGRATING LANDSCAPES ORGANIZATION ON THE SUBJECT: MEANING, EXPERIENCE AND INFLUENCE OF SETTLING IN THE CONTEXT OF IMMIGRATION FOR AN ARCHITECTS.
Similarly to Duchamps Three Standard Stoppage* (1913-14) my model is the representation of a measurement in time and space;
instead of three one meter thread stretched on a canvas, I applied Duchamps conceptual construction as a reference to develop a
critical and personal representation of reminiscent dwellings. The new model also operates as a generative device for speculative
architectural design.
My statement: If we combine representations of design agencies from five diverse cultural dwelling types experienced by one individual into one single architectural model and let them randomly influence each other it creates an new image of what dwellings could be.
The model: Key characteristic concepts from five dwelling types (Canadian suburban house, Indonesian long house, Italian residential block, Chinese residential tower, British row house with lower ground floor) are evidenced and translated diagrammatically into a model. The diagrams are trapped at the centre of the model as a vertical structure. A palimpsest of horizontal shapes represent territories where these dwellings were located. Primary composition is matured through sketches and drawn into 3D representations. The hand made model is built from copper, wood and aluminium, additional details are with transparent acrylic and colored polyvinyl plastic.
* It is a joke about the meter, Duchamp glibly noted about this piece, but his premise for it reads like a theorem: If a straight horizontal thread one meter long falls from a height of one meter onto a horizontal plane twisting as it pleases [it] creates a new image of the unit of length. Duchamp dropped three threads one meter long from the height of one meter onto three stretched canvases. The threads were then adhered to the canvases to preserve the random curves they assumed upon landing. The canvases were cut along the threads profiles, creating a template of their curves creating new units of measure that retain the length of the meter but undermine its rational basis.

ARCHAEOLOGY OF THE FUTURE: DYSTOPIAN TOURISM IN ROME
DESIGN-RESEARCH PROJECT PREPARED AT THE BRITISH SCHOOL AT ROME UNDER QUEBEC ARCHITECTURE RESIDENT AWARD
A speculative project of architecture that presents a fictional narrative based in Rome is devoted to the prescient subject of ecological change and adaptations caused by artificial interventions into existing ecosystems.
The plot is set in a future conditioned by recurring floods more devastating than historical ones, by a technocratic world government owning political power and where technologies mutate as they are transferred from one field to another.
Compelling underwater vedutas explore architecture through a dystopian eye, where the focus of the project is less in the form of a final object than as a script that it inserts into the city. A series of invention enables coexistence with the underwater city: firstly a colossal inhabitable porous self-supporting structure floats above the city; second a mechanical fish was designed to travel inside the marvelous ruins.
Against this backdrop, one reflects upon the major contemporary processes that capture, power and govern the changes and challenges we are facing today, questioning what architecture could generate when faced with extreme scientific, cultural and political scenarios.

ANTI-OEDIPAL HOUSEEXPERIMENTAL DESIGN STUDY PREPARED AT THE AVATAR RESEARCH GROUP
ADVANCE VIRTUAL AND TECHNOLOGICAL ARCHITECTURAL RESEARCH
The project considers psychomorphic relations between body and technology as a time based architecture.
Freuds Oedipus complex is used as a basis for reconstructing Debords borderless space into a domestic
environment. It is a research on how an architectural system may embody psychological theories and
mythological narratives and how a physical reality may be constructed out of it.

BENETTON | Designing in Teheran
CONCEPT - Benetton is known to be provocative, they express social messages and opinions in a straight forward way - usually very graphical. The concept of this architecture respects that tradition. A simple building in which the program can be read from the outside; 3 volumes represent each of the main functions of the building and 2 voids complement the other functions.
PROGRAM - Includes 5 types of space: parking, garden, commerce, office, residence
SHOPPING - The shopping experience is inspired by local street market display techniques; the slanted display lets the shopper see all the products at once. Here we slant the whole floor as a catwalk like space and use glass walls. The space opens to the garden where one can look at the store from outside.
STRUCTURE - The central tower hosting parts of offices and residences is free of columns with load bearing walls structure embedded in the patterned faade. Additional structural strengthening is provided by the 3 vertical cores.

Tivoli | Santuario Ercole Vincitore
PROPOSED PROGRAMMixed use building with a public urban park offering views:- Archaeological/anthropological complex - Lecture Hall and Coffee shops- Artists in residence with exhibition hall
DESIGN INTENTThe concept is to reveal history and to connect the urban fabric to the Roman ruin. The intent is achieved by adding a new volume to reactivate the historical site. This volume is a glass passage linking the more recent street level of Tivoli to via Tecta, a roman street gate from 1st century BC. This custom gate was built as a place of worship named Santuario Ercole Vincitore. As one goes through the passage one can experience 4 moments in time represented by architectures stacked on each other. Moments to pause happen in the passage where a function is inserted i.e. cafe and auditorium.In addition to this element, residual volumes of post 19th century are refurbished and reinforced using Corten clading. These spaces are dedicated to art and archeology. Overall intervention also emphasize on orientation of views to leverage the quality of spaces on the magnificent views towards Rome.

BRIEF PROGRAMUNESCO recently listed the centre of Mesola as world heritage. As part of an urban planning strategy adjacent areas of the centre are to be refurbished. Theses areas are subject to this competition:- Piazza Vittoria, public square used for parking, market and events- Ex-magazzini, old farm sheds- Park, traditionally owned by the castle
DESIGN INTENTURBAN - The aim of our proposal is to connect all the areas and establish a sense of identity. The first intervention is to create a grid inspired by the 18th century ortico (garden) that covers the whole site with a horizontal architectural pattern. This grid serves to organize the interventions programme and cladding. At the centre of the grid is a pedestrian axis crosses three areas of the brief. In addition to this we create 3 gates by opening buildings to increase accessibility to the site and connections from the main roads.ARCHITECTURE - The main rule is to refurbish the buildings as they were originally built. All new buildings are cladded in white aluminium sheets. New additions to existing fabric are iconically proposing similar volumes as extensions. Reinforcing Mesola recognitions for its implication of surrounding national park, we propose to implement a didactic education centre, this building has additional local wood cladding and local tree trunks as columns.

CONTEXT
The comune of Castelli is renowned for its tradition in making ceramics since 11th century. Following the 2009 earthquake the comune suffered a second population decline in 20 years; this decimation impacts the economical stability of the area.
A disused water mill located at the boundary of Castelli is in critical condition due to erosion of the escarpment it stands on. This 5 square meter water mill has a symbolic meaning for the local history since its the last standing original water mill from a series of 40 on via dei mulini. These were used to grind stone in the traditional process of making ceramics.
A concerned local business specialised in historical renovations came to us for help in preparing a proposal of renovation. His intent is not only to preserve and protect the mill but also to reestablish its waterway.
From the analysis, we concluded that the legacy of the project was a key element for its success, as much the immediate impact of the built proposal, the repercussion of economical investment and the possible ways it could be used and become a place.
One aspect to achieve this was through the brief and the other was through implementing the design intent
BRIEF
We proposed to symbolically/officially mark the site as the entrance of Castelli, the entrance of the national park and a meeting hub on the hiking track. Marking the site as such gave ground to regenerate such a small forgotten historical artefact.
Hence the brief proposal is an integrated regenerative design of strengthening the ridge, outfitted picnic area that visually marks the waterway and preservation of the old water mill.
IMPLEMENT DESIGN INTENT
The result is an iconic project marking a historically important place with a visually strong installation; a complex biomorphic form urban furniture that functions as a bridge, water canalization and seating. The design objective is to implement new fabrication process that considers traditional crafts from 11th century, cultural identity linked to ceramics and economical strategic development. We proposed a solution that integrates to design process the conjunction of efforts from artisans and construction industry.
The design drawings are produced with 3D modelling software Rhino and 3Dstudio max. These drawings are digitally transferred to three axes CNC milling machine owned by a specialized construction of the area to carve complex shape moulding (MDF or wax), artisans will produce the ceramic panels using traditional techniques of forming and coloring (world renowned orange color), local workers will install the panels on existing retaining walls. Therefore the economical objective for this project is to introduce a new method of producing ceramics in a traditional way; a production that could find interest in contemporary reality and boost a local tradition of excellence and uniqueness.

PROjECT DESCRIPTIONShenzhen is one of Chinas special economic zones (SEZ), the growth of the city is almost unequalled on the planet. The project tower is to become the main Stock Exchange office for trading and listing companies, acting as an icon for the economic burst in the pearl delta. The floating podium represents bull market, defying gravity its raising from the ground. All the principal functions related to trading are in the podium. Symbolically the listing hall is primordial, the ritual happens once in the life of a company when it becomes public. This characteristic is reflected spatially, located in the podium, it has a dedicated entrance and dedicated elevators. To reflect the architectural concept we specially designed back-light ceilings for the podium. The podium glows as their light illuminates the entire 7, 8 and 9th floor.
RESPONSIBILITIESIncluding but not limited to:_Production of interior design development tender documents_Conceived and coordinated drawings and specifications for fixed furniture, signing and interior systems (wall, floor, ceiling)_Assisted in the coordination of design with consultants (graphic, acoustic and lighting)_Participated to meetings with client and consultants_Conducted research and information documents on interiors and materials regarding design, specifications, materials and equipment
