Welcome to my journey

Here is a compilation of my experiences, most recently starting a Master of Architecture program at the University of Oregon. As the process unfolds, new doors and light reveals the things previously hidden. A process of learning, living, being.

Path Prospect Refuge

Path Prospect Refuge

Problem: To design a prospect and refuge space on a sloping site with net zero fill removal.

Solution: Above, stairway to prospect cantilever, with prospect dug into the hillside behind accessed by two slit doorways.

Thoughts: I enjoyed the abstract qualities of this assignment, but was also able to consider human occupation of this site. The roof cantilever and supports are a bit disjointed from the overall design, as well as the transition from stairs to platform.
