(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Surface in the city is scarce. As a typical day in the city progresses, the inhabitants' surface demands transform. A children's playground goes unused at night, the valuable surface should be re-adapted for an alternative ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)This study explores how the forms of urban landscapes influence and reflect physical and metaphorical journeys through a city. Using an interdisciplinary approach, the artist and researcher investigates the diverse landscapes ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Inspired by my final Studio IV project in 2010, the Capsule Hotel, and the growing demand for efficient housing due to overcrowding in developing cities, this thesis explores, examines and realizes the need for compact ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)This thesis aims to bring the handicraft of knitting into the realm of architecture as a low-tech means of fabrication in a world of high-tech design. This thesis attempts to break knitting down into its most essential ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)While architecture inherently makes sound when people and the environment interact with it, architects seldom orchestrate a building to produce sound. This thesis proposes a sonic facade that turns an existing building ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Water plays an integral role in mediating the natural environment, ecosystems and habitats, and in shaping our natural landscapes. Using water as a tool for form-finding in landscape design fosters a sense of awareness of ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)Plug-in city has been explored by others through 3d renditions, however, their 3D rendition are subject to interpretation as its design and development progressed through modeling and a series of drawings by Peter Cook. ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)This project is an art project and a science project. Traditional forms of art - music, dance, fashion - are integrated with new technologies - electronics and software - to create an item of clothing, or "wearable", which ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)Structures that carry most of their load through the axial forces of tension or compression are more materially efficient than standard structures. However, they are not as straightforward to design since the forces in the ...
-
Imaginative procedural modeling : automated 3D generation and rendering of stylized building designs (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)The entertainment industry relies fairly heavily on computer-generated imagery to depict built environments in current films, video games, and other forms of simulated reality. These often involve highly complex geometries ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)Designing within the landscape, architects are often challenged with the dilemma of what to build and to what extent if anything. The natural environment offers an architecture of its own parameters and rules. Building ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)Most schools in Sierra Leone are constructed using a standard design with little variation from building to building. They are relatively high-cost and have poor ventilation, lighting and thermal comfort. In January 2010, ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)Architectural discourse on transparency has centered on the idea of layering spaces, light construction, and perceptions of different spatial relationships and has a long history from modernism to the present. This thesis ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Downtowns of small cities and towns are often overlooked when thinking of cultural and gathering spaces. Unlike a large city that usually has a vibrant historical and cultural history represented by clustering of museums, ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)This thesis explores the architectural opportunities embedded in geometric folding by studying the limitations and possibilities of a variety of patterns. In particular; the thesis focuses on the Yoshimura or diamond folding ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)This thesis investigates the factors that have caused changes in church sanctuary design in Harrison County, Iowa in the last century, focusing on daylight and thermal qualities. Most of the churches in the county today ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)A study was performed to determine how drawings for streets may be tailored to a broad range of viewers and agendas, yet still be viewed as a credible design tool for architects. With a growing number of cities designing ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)At the heart of downtown Ho Chi Minh City, the bustling Ben Thanh market is where vendors have come to sell their wares since the 17th century, and where throngs of locals and tourists alike come to buy, eat, and engage ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Beginning with the conjecture that non-professionals can find empowerment through a greater understanding of the built environment, two projects of architectural intervention were developed to experiment with the notion ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)This thesis investigates the historic significance, structural condition, and preservation challenges of the wrought iron roof trusses of the Cochituate aqueduct's inlet gatehouse as the possible earliest surviving example ...
