patterned wall study - [Fibre C]

PROJECT LOCATION: Moscow, Russian Federation
PROJECT TYPE: residential towers and retail/office podium
NOTES:
with the regions inherent extreme climatic swing, the building envelope must offer superior thermal performance and longevity to harsh conditions. the images I have generated here further advance the design of 'Project Crystal', utilizing a rear ventilated rain screen system clad with 13mm FibreC; glass-fiber reinforced concrete panels. The early design of this project as a glass curtain wall proved to be far below our desired performance criteria and has progressed nicely to a more responsible solution. the new design offers large thermally isolated windows punched in a randomized pattern over a field of varying gray FibreC panels, the pattern repeating every 3rd floor. windows are accentuated with an aluminum plate frame and the angled sill detail offers both an effective solution to snow build-up along with the aesthetic gain of increasing the apparent window size; maximizing sky reflection as one moves around the building. another notable feature are the glass-enclosed loggia's that run vertically up the towers. these unconditioned residential spaces transform from a closed sun room in the winter to an open balcony in the warm seasons offering a wide range of use to building occupants.

Harlem Park: AIA recognition

Harlem Park, the project I worked on for the majority of 2006 and 2007 at Swanke Hayden Connell Architects is soon to break ground on the corner of 125th street and Park Ave in New York City. As one of the architectural designers on the team, I saw the project from start to finish with responsibilities ranging from zoning and massing studies, site and context research, detailing of the building core and elevator system, structural and mechanical coordination, design and detailing of the office lobby, and image/rendering production. Here is the article that was published about the project by the American Institute of Architects (AIA).
