The Google I/O paper cloud was an installation designed for the 2014 Google I/O event held at the Moscone West center in San Francisco. The installation was inspired by quantum paper, Google’s code name for their then-new material Design UI. The paper clouds were made up of 30,000 sheets of Tyvek stapled to one another and attached to 42 precut wood modules hung from the Center’s ceiling. In collaboration with Lisa Iwamoto, Craig Scott, Ryan Montgomery, John Tuthill, Brandon Sampson, Matthew Kendall, Soo Han, Evan Bowman, Faisal Aboud, Bradley Arnold, Aleksis Bertoni, Oswin Ersyanela, Thanya Ingriany, Yulia Kukosh, Jacqueline Lin, Sheila Lin, Quoc Van, and Raenear Yap.

The lace and spine skyscrapers were two concepts designed as residential complexes for Dubai. The lace skyscraper was inspired by the loose folds of a woman’s dress, while the spine skyscraper (as its name suggests) was inspired by the curvature of the human spine. The lace skyscraper was a modulated housing system with an undulating exterior screen supporting protruding balconies and vining plants. The spine skyscraper was to be a large high-rise with indoor oases. In collaboration with Gulla Jonsdottir and Christy Coleman.

The butterfly screen was designed for the 2015 West Edge Design Fair in West Hollywood, California. The design of the installation was inspired by the lifecycle of a butterfly with each piece representing key stages of its transformative life. The screen represents the matured stage of the butterfly after it has hatched from its cocoon. The screen were constructed out of three 4’x10’ lazar cut steel screens and comprised of two additional steel layers adding a 3-dimenensial quality to the screen. In collaboration with Gulla Jonsdottir, Erni Taslim, and Scott Brown.

The butterfly side table is a signature piece that follows the same geometric language as the butterfly screen. The piece was constructed out of six lazar cut steel panels welded together to create a continuous perforated cube. The side table adopts a similar layered language as the screen with lazar cut steel outlines of butterflies wrapping the 20”X20” side table. In collaboration with Gulla Jonsdottir and Erni Taslim.

Le grand restaurant is a high-end restaurant designed for famous Parisian chef Jean Francois Piege in the heart of Paris, France. The overall concept for the restaurant was inspired by the daily life of an elegantly mysterious Parisian woman. Each of the key features of the restaurant follow a moment in the daily routine of this mysterious woman’s life as she starts and ends her day in Paris. The restaurant itself is a 1000 square foot renovation on the first floor of a classic European housing complex located just moments from the Louvre. Its major features include the front door depicting a map of Paris on lazar cut steel, the grand marble kitchen counter, the curved marble wall leading into the main dining hall, and the geometric glass ceiling. In collaboration with Gulla Jonsdottir and Svava Bjork.

This studio explored small and large scale adaptablesystems to inform a new type of theatre space in a rural setting. Iwamoto’s studio used model making as a primary means of understanding systems and how they might begin to transform into architectural spaces.The studio looked at the future of architecture througha “what if” and “why not” lens. For this studio, I proposed an ephemeral paper structure sitting atop a rectangular plinth that could be expanded. The idea being that with the removal of the temporal paper structure, the plinth would act as the primary archi-tectural feature on site. Instructed by Lisa Iwamoto.

The studio collaborates with the San Francisco Film Museum and Zeta Construction to propose a temporary, modular, film pavilion in San Francisco.The BOX/Zeta pavilion is designed to real-worldspecifications. Building Information Modeling (i.e. Autodesk Revit) is used to ensure quality standards between the studio and Zeta’s factory. This means the pavilion imagined/represented in the studio can be built in the factory. BIM is used as a primary means of aiding students inunderstanding the program as an integral tool forbuilding representation and factory production. Those involved include Diego Franco, Diana Chung,and Ivana Pilipovic. Instructed by Darell Fields.

One of the main objectives of the studio was tomaximize interior space by using adaptable interior elements created in Autodesk Revit. Towards the first half of the semester students were responsible for one of five modules repres-entative of varying programs. I was responsible for the theater space and designed a bi-foldingdoor to promote indoor and outdoor viewing, a truss system that doubled as bracing for transport,and a twisting panel system to clad the exterior.
