The Wetherall house. I designed this 1,000 sf cottage to sit on the Wetherall’s new property at the edge of the Deschutes River in Bend, OR. Not yet completed, the above images represent a collection of inspiration photos, sketches as well as plans and sections.
The Dairy Dream. A 1912 milk factory turned artist studios + residence in New York. The owner plans to renovate to better organize the living spaces and create a ballroom in the now unused attic space spanning the entire length of the structure. I created plans and elevations of the existing structure to kick off the planning process. Above is a sample of plans, elevations and sketches from around the building and property.
The McLean House & Park. I designed a shelter to sit on the grounds of the historic McLean House along the Willamette River in West Linn, OR. The shelter would provide a covered area for community events and weddings and would replace the large pop up tent which has been set up each summer. The design was reminiscent of a large greenhouse to blend in with the style and time period of the house and surrounding area.
The Hokitika Museum. Originally built as a Carnegie Library in 1908, this historic building is situated in the small town of Hokitika on the West Coast of New Zealand’s South Island. An earthquake in 2011 damaged the structure of the building and while working at Fulton Ross Team Architects in Christchurch, New Zealand, we proposed an upgrade to the supporting walls which would not alter the historic integrity of the building. Pictured above: Early photograph of the Carnegie Library, north and west elevations and the demolition floor plan.
Ivey West and Memorial Hall at Lincoln University located in Lincoln, New Zealand. During the 2011 Earthquake the buildings were badly damaged. While working at Fulton Ross Team Architects in Christchurch, New Zealand, we proposed a structural upgrade, replacement of the historic facade and repurpose of the interior spaces from dormitory and chapel to offices and a lecture hall. Pictured above: Early photograph of the buildings, interior rendering of Memorial Hall, proposed north elevation and ground floor plan.
While working with Serett Metalworks in New York City, I created shop drawings and coordinated the construction of the large steel sculptures designed by the Art Student’s League of New York and installed along Riverside Park.
