FARMERS MARKET
THE FARMERS MARKET WILL SERVE AS A PLACE OF INTERACTION BETWEEN LOCAL FARMERS, JONES ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, AND THE CITY OF PRAIRIE VIEW, TX. THE LAND-SCAPE IS PEELED AWAY FROM THE EARTH TO CREATE HILLS THAT WILL SHADE THE FARMERS MARKET FROM THE SUN AND PROVIDE AIR FLOW. THE HILLS WILL FUNCTION AS A PLACE FOR PEOPLE TO LEARN, PLAY, AND RELAX.

HOMELESS SHELTER
INSPIRED BY A NETWORK OF CONCRETE FREEWAYS AND OVERPASSES IN CLOSE PROX-IMITY OF THE SITE, THE DESIGN INTENTION WAS TO CREATE AN INFRASTRUCTURE THAT WOULD LIFT THE HOUSING UNITS ABOVE THE SITES EIGHT FOOT FLOOD PLANE WHILE STITCHING TOGETHER THE URBAN AND NATURAL FABRIC OF THE CITY.

MONARCH BORDER CROSSING
THE INTENT OF THIS PROJECT IS TO DESIGN A BORDER CROSSING LOCATED BETWEEN LAREDO, TX AND MEXICO. THE DESIGN IS INSPIRED BY THE MIGRATION OF THE MONARCH BUTTERFLY THAT TRAVELS FROM TEXAS TO MEXICO. THE LANDSCAPE SURROUNDING THE BUILDING IS A RESTING PLACE FOR MONARCHS TO GATHER AND FOR THE PUBLIC TO VIEW THEM.
