CoHabitat
Fostering social interaction and ecological harmony Context Analysis Concept CoHabitat is a dynamic, multifunctional pavilion designed to foster social interaction and ecological harmony. It offers students and faculty a space to socialize and collaborate outside the traditional classroom setting, while also providing nesting grounds for local bird species and promoting biodiversity in the city. The … Read more
SMOKE
SMOKE is a simple exploration of a plume of smoke rising from a camp fire. The project explores thermal turbulence and swarm behavior, with forces from mixing air acting on the particles found in smoke, dispersing them into the air. Deconstructing Natural Behavior: Smoke – Swarm Behavior Smoke is comprised of a collection of tiny … Read more
Golden Gusts
What is the Golden Ratio? The Golden Ratio is a relationship between two numbers that are next to each other in the Fibonacci sequence. When you divide the larger one by the smaller one, the answer is something close to Phi. The further you go along the Fibonacci Sequence, the closer the answers get to … Read more

In order to simulate both favorable and adverse … Read more
“Cloud” An Exploration of Humane Architecture
Hostile architecture is an urban-design strategy that uses elements of the built environment to purposefully guide or restrict behavior. What if we stopped seeing cities as a place for only the privileged and started thinking of them as living organisms to host the less fortunate? Shifting away from hostile architecture and creating humane zones for … Read more
Reef Rhythm: Differential Growth in the dance of Reaction Diffusion
This project explores the differential growth under the reaction diffusion phenomena. Moving from the microscopic behavior of magnetic fluids to the macroscopic phenomenon of differential growth, revealing the interconnectedness of physical processes and biological phenomena. Beginning with an exploration of the properties and behaviors of magnetic fluids, and establishing an understanding of their unique dynamics. … Read more
Slime Mold Behavior in Decaying Tree Trunks
Analyzing the behavior of slime mold in an environment where the natural organism has access to nutrients and competition from other species.
Computational Design II – Molecular Crystallization
This project is about the intricacies and process induced intelligence int the natural phenomenon of crystallization. Namely on the molecular level. This project explores the nature and structure of crystal lattices and how the number of bonds and the allowance of joining planes influences the overall molecular structure. Iterative Bonding- X OR Y Plane – … Read more
CELL DIVISION
Pluripotent (‘capable of multiple tasks‘) stem cells are cells that can divide indefinitely. These cell layers are the fundamental tissues that give rise to all the different types of cells and tissues found in the adult organism. Given this property, stem cells are potentially able to recreate any tissue or organ found in the body. … Read more
