INTENTION The energizing tranquility of a place that re ects the complexi es of natural order with sophis cated, e ortless form engages the human experience, ac vates community and unlocks the poten al for an ecologically regenera ve paradigm. The human experience can be simply de ned as the sequence of our sensual, emo onal, ra onal and spiritual engagements and rela onships with the places in which we dwell. As individuals, we seek serenity and s mula on, challenge and respite, freedom and order. Our desire for independence is balanced only by our want for the e ciency, sense of place and nurturing provided by community. Communi es are the realiza on of our awareness that we are part of something bigger than the individual. The construct of community exploits human commonality to overrule divisions spalled by di erence. From the scale of a bench to that of a city, the built environment can serve as a catalyst or inhibitor to the forma on and maintenance of community. Ul mately cri cal to the success of a human community and an individuals self-actualiza on, however, is the health of the associated ecological community. The interdependence of all life is not a new idea to science or colloquial discourse. It is, however, conceptually absent from the vast majority of architectural rubrics. While individual buildings are making strides toward energy e ciency and eventual carbon neutrality, we have passed the me when zero impact was enough. For genera ons, human progress has thrived at the expense of the long term degrada on of ecosystem health and has thus reached a point where maximum impact is necessary. The built environment of the future must not only be sustainable, but it must ac vely regenerate the ecological vitality that has been lost and resituate humans as stewards. The contemporary architect no longer has the privilege of specializa on and isolated indulgence. No longer can the building be treated as an object. We have a responsibility to passionately pursue design excellence, produce inspired forms and create spaces and infrastructure that are responsive to the life with which they are entangled.
PROCESS While a completed project may contain the complexity and subtle elegance of a climax ecosystem, it begins as a diverse and seemingly disparate collec on of parameters. The rst set of parameters comes from the client and is dominated by spa al needs, spa al rela onships and o en branding. The second set comes from the stake holders. The project occupants have needs of e ciency, produc vity, accessibility, comfort, tranquility and social connec vity. Neighbors require contextual relevance, community engagement and environmental integrity. Ci es ask for an aesthe c contribu on, collabora on with development goals and op mal infrastructure integra on. Birds needs canopy trees and worm lled soil to dig in; bu er ies need owers; and sh need unpolluted rivers and streams. Once a survey of a projects parameters is completed, rigorous layered diagramming allows rela onships and opportuni es for stacking value to emerge.

INTENTIONThe energizing tranquility of a place that reflects the complexities of natural order with sophisticated, effortless form engages the human experience, activates community and unlocks the potential for an ecologically regenerative paradigm.
The human experience can be simply defined as the sequence of our sensual, emotional, rational and spiritual engagements and relationships with the places in which we dwell. As individuals, we seek serenity and stimulation, challenge and respite, freedom and order. Our desire for independence is balanced only by our want for the efficiency, sense of place and nurturing provided by community.
Communities are the realization of our awareness that we are part of something bigger than the individual. The construct of community exploits human commonality to overrule divisions spalled by difference. From the scale of a bench to that of a city, the built environment can serve as a catalyst or inhibitor to the formation and maintenance of community. Ultimately critical to the success of a human community and an individuals self-actualization, however, is the health of the associated ecological community.
The interdependence of all life is not a new idea to science or colloquial discourse. It is, however, conceptually absent from the vast majority of architectural rubrics. While individual buildings are making strides toward energy efficiency and eventual carbon neutrality, we have passed the time when zero impact was enough. For generations, human progress has thrived at the expense of the long term degradation of ecosystem health and has thus reached a point where maximum impact is necessary. The built environment of the future must not only be sustainable, but it must actively regenerate the ecological vitality that has been lost and resituate humans as stewards.
The contemporary architect no longer has the privilege of specialization and isolated indulgence. No longer can the building be treated as an object. We have a responsibility to passionately pursue design excellence, produce inspired forms and create spaces and infrastructure that are responsive to the life with which they are entangled.
PROCESSWhile a completed project may contain the complexity and subtle elegance of a climax ecosystem, it begins as a diverse and seemingly disparate collection of parameters. The first set of parameters comes from the client and is dominated by spatial needs, spatial relationships and often branding. The second set comes from the stake holders. The project occupants have needs of efficiency, productivity, accessibility, comfort, tranquility and social connectivity. Neighbors require contextual relevance, community engagement and environmental integrity. Cities ask for an aesthetic contribution, collaboration with development goals and optimal infrastructure integration. Birds needs canopy trees and worm filled soil to dig in; butterflies need flowers; and fish need unpolluted rivers and streams.
Once a survey of a projects parameters is completed, rigorous layered diagramming allows relationships and opportunities for stacking value to emerge. When crystallization occurs, all parameters have been accounted for and are no longer disparate. The crystal lens that focuses the numerous parameters into one common narrative is my parti. It materializes prior to any notions of form, organization or material, and is the seed from which all decisions will get root. Sophisticated design offers clarity of thought and concept resolution. The parti eliminates noise and ensures that clarity is achieved.

NW CENTER FOR PHOTOGRAPHY TOWERWest Burnside & Broadway - Portland, Oregon
WINTER 2009PROFESSOR: WILL BRUDER, FAIA
Placed in a whirling intersection of human interaction, history and scales of architecture, this building uses arching, shifting planes, spiraling spaces and verticality to harness the chaos and exploit opportunities to create spaces from activated to calm. Situated at the convergence of two street grids, it is an urban gateway that connects North with South and old with new. At its base, a spiral-ramping photography museum, greenhouse restaurant and urban retail spaces serve as a social hub and also frame pedestrian-oriented street rooms.
The upper tower strata hold a mix of 200 affordable and efficient residential units, including: studios, single bedroom and double bedroom. Unit sizes range from 400-600 square feet. Northern units benefit from niches created in the double facade while Southern units gain ample balconies from crenulation of the skin.
This building is designed to take advantage of the sun and wind, manage stormwater, encourage a low carbon lifestyle and contribute to the ecological diversity of Portland. The East-West elongated shape maximizes passive solar potential and gives all units sufficient access to daylight. The radial structure sheds cold northern, Winter winds and captures Summers southern breezes. The double facade on the Northwest aspect of the tower shelters exterior, operable shading devices where the sun and wind are the most brutal, neutralizes pressure differences caused by driving winter winds and creates unique, occupiable, interstitial spaces that blur the line between indoor and outdoor. The unitized curtain wall provides for superior thermal performance, optimized daylighting and minimal construction waste.

Layered museum entry sequence helps shed preconceptions, preparing visitors for the mobius ramp of discovery.
Four story atrium brings light, connectivity and grandiosity to adjacent spaces.
The ramp wraps more than 3600 around the building, providing filtered peeks
through the perforated steel scrim into the greenhouse and street scape in which the journey began.
Staggered vegetated roof gardens provide a ladder for polinating insects and birds, create dynamic visuals, filter air, raise building albido and connect occupants with natural outdoor spaces.
Community commons room/terrace provides space for entertaining, studying, barbequeing and more.
Double facade shelters operable shading devices, reduces street noise, neutralizes envelope pressure and blurs the line betwee in and out.
Flat floored auditorium with moveable seating is the perfect place to attend a
lecture, film, meeting or wedding.
Greenhouse provides shortest farm to restaurant travel imagineable, biophylic connection, and thermal comfort even
on wet cold winter days.
Ducts spanning half of each unit width allow passive cross ventilation which combined with optimized solar shading, a tight envelope and heat recovery ventilation means little to no cooling or heating energy.

ECOLOGICALLY NESTED, TRANSIT ORIENTED HOUSINGCivic & TriMet Max Yellow Line - Gresham, Oregon
FALL 2010PROFESSOR: BROOK MULLER, JOSH CERRAProject Team: Tobin Newburgh, Matthew Sillaman & Dan Edleson
Located near the end of the light rail, in one of Portlands farthest East suburbs, this urban housing forest optimizes a parcel owned by the Portland Metro regional government. Purchased to preserve housing and commercial development along the public transit corridor, this property sits at a prime location and contains a rich forest ecosystem, making it of high interest to both Metros Transit Oriented Development and Nature In Neighborhoods groups.
Street-oriented walk ups and balconies activate the street edge, forming an urban streetscape along Civic Drive. The interior of the site features cascading green roofed parking awnings that form a visual screen and urban farming opportunity while serving as a spatial and hydrological conduit into the site. This gradient from hardscape to terraced green roofs to architectural wetlands to open wet forest connects occupants to the site and allows for a myriad of experiences from open and social to secluded and reflective.
While subtle landscape shifts clearly delineate public and private spaces, the site interior serves as a mostly public park space featuring a boardwalk through the wet meadow connecting existing housing and retail on the SW of the site to a new plaza adjacent to the Max station on the NE of the site.
This project was chosen to be featured by Portland Metro at the Sustainable Cities Initiative forum.

ALBINA AFFORDABLE URBAN HOUSING N Williams & Fremont - Portland, Oregon
WINTER 2010PROFESSOR: MICHAEL FIFIELD, FAIA
Situated on the historic Main St (N. Williams) of NE Portlands Albina district, this community resides at the intersection of a rich history and a promising future, is home to Portlands largest African/African-American population and is a critical ecological link between the Willamette riparian corridor and a network of alleys and street trees to the east.
This project seeks individuality within the context of a community. Every unit has its own walk-up entry, access to light and air on at least two sides and direct connection to both a shared parking court and a green ecoscape.
The site is organized in a series of alternating hardscapes and ecoscapes that are woven together by N-S links that foster community interaction/engagement, provide green ladders for pollinators to the roof and celebrate the storage and management of stormwater. Single loaded stacked townhouses and alternating landscape bands mean that every unit has direct access and connectivity to the shared parking court (Woonerf) and the common green as well as access to daylight and fresh air. Affordability is addressed through small unit size, unit modularity, component standardization, low utilities due to net-zero energy use, rainwater collection and on-site economic opportunities.
Net-zero energy is acheived through PassivHaus methods of a super-insulated envelope, high performance glazing, heat recovery ventilation, solar optimization, cross-ventilation and roof mounted photovoltaics and solar water heating.

FOOD FOREST
FOOD RAMP
KENTEN OF CONNECTIVITY
A Woonerf is a type of shared parking court/street that is designed to give the pedestrian equal or greater realm as the automobile. Woonerfs and Slow Streets have legal definitions in other parts of the world where very slow max auto speeds are enforced. Typically there is no definition of a sidewalk, so pedestrians and cars actually share the same space. Additionally, bollards and plantings are often used to compress the driving area and slow down traffic.
A Food Forest is a concept taken from the Permaculture movement. As the diagram shows, a Food Forest uses the vertical layered structure of a forest as a blueprint for a ecologically regenerative system that can grow human food crops at much greater densities than conventional farming. The forest approach has a greater reliance on perennial plants that are better for the soil, require less maintenance, can supply more food per unit area and uptake more stormwater.
The food ramp in each of the common green spaces allows for a gradient of crops to be planted based on their water needs. Gravity fed irrigation from the rainwater cisterns can travel down the food ramp collecting toward the bottom. Bog loving, shelter dwelling crops can be grown at the bottom of the ramp while arid crops get a place at the top.
Kenten is an African word for basket and the root of Kente Cloth, a type of cloth made by weaving narrow strips that are then stitched together into a larger cloth. It is an appropriate analogy for this project situated in a predominantly African/African-American community, because similarly, the site plan is composed of alternating strips of shared court and ecoscape that are stitched together at nodes of human and ecological activity.

Intersectionality: NE Portland History MuseumN Fremon Ave & N. Mississippi Ave - Portland, Oregon
SPRING 2008PROFESSOR: RICHARD SHIGA
Held in tension between past and future, moments in history are multidimensional and their artifacts require spaces in which to view them in a non-singular way. Serving as a period, or more accurately, an ellipses to the continually growing North Mississippi Avenue, this Portland History Museum removes the participant from the Mississippi experience through a layered fracture from the grid. Once inside, subtle, structural reminders re-orient the patron to the orthogonal grid building to a climax in the intimate second gallery whose focused view of the Downtown Portland skyline, featuring the prominent US Bancorp Tower, reconnects the timeline of Portlands unique history.
The spatial topography of the site is such that the second gallery sits on a precipice, revealing a great sense of expansion. Similarly, the basin south of the site, expands to the east and thus the primary gallery, offices and cafe are situated in a manner to exploit the opportunity to create tension between the feeling of containment and expansion out to the hills beyond Legacy Emanuel Hospital. It is in this juxtaposition of colliding grids, long horizontal view axes, compression and expansion, removal and revealment, shelter and prospect, that a person is best enabled to reflect on historic objects.

Community Partners International Office BuildingSW Ankeny Street & SW First Avenue- Portland, Oregon
WINTER 2008PROFESSOR: Guntis Plesums
Simple and elegant, this small-medium sized office building maximizes occupants access to light, air and views without overheating or producing uncomfortable glare. Anchored by the conference room and bookstore cube, a four storey L-shaped mass prominently occupies the corner while preserving a light well to the interior of the site. The public gallery and office spaces are served by a grand entry framed in the mosaic glass south wall, while the caf and restaurant permeate onto the east sidewalk, allowing customers to grab a snack or beverage as they wait for their train.
Solar aperture is optimized on the south wall through a mosaic of transom panels, low-e glass, clear glass, operable windows, horizontal shades and light shelves. The west and east facades are optimized by window boxes that shelter operable shading devices, shade harsh, low angle radiation, provide thermal buffering, and reduce street noise. A central courtyard provides a green oasis for all spaces in the building as well as flood daylight into the most remote corner of the site which includes the bicycle storage, gallery preparation space and other logistical areas.
