FORMED STRUCTURE
The brief given was to digitally map a still life composition using rays and line segments. Afterwards, I then traced and mapped the constant light source used. Using both the light source and still life mapped out, I designed a pavilion. This pavilion makes the audience experience the negative space in between the still life objects, without the objects itself.

The problem and parameters that were given was to use the provided white nylon, wire and thread to develop a structure that spans the width and length of a desk that is 30 by 60 inches.
I tackled this problem by trying to find the best economic solution. Since the wire they gave us was not able to reach the span of the desk, I focused my attention on trying to extend the length of the wire. I then focused on how to use the fabric so that it will transcend its convetional role as a skin. The goal was to design a structure that activated all parts without anything being decorative, a structure that efficiently follows the constraints without the use of any unnecessary parts and materials.
The whole structure was designed and created with the concept that the materials used cannot be replaced with any other material and therefore uses its natural strengths. It also has the possibility to endlessly span in the horizontal direction due to its modularity.

The problem and parameters that were given was to decrease the original mass and volume to 50% and move its centroid to an exact point. To accomplish the parameters, I had to establish a strict ruleset
guided by both aesthetics and mathematics.
The concept for this project is to reveal the transformation that occurs to reach the parameters by using flow, movement, and memory. The centroid for each layer is evident with the way that the lines are organized and spaced. The radiant centroid for each level created spaces and volumes that are reminiscent of Carlos Scarpa, due to the
movement of the offset lines.

The initial concept conceived for this project is “cleansing through circulation”. It is based on rituals, religion and historic architecture such as the Roman bathhouses. I concluded that all cultures use three main elements to cleanse oneself: earth, water and air. The programs of the health center are then placed according to an adjacency chart I made which also responds to site conditions such as the neighboring sites, light, wind, privacy and, the different elements of cleansing.
The entrance for the building suggests the importance of circulation from the street side. It not only strengthens the orientation of the exterior and interior of the building but also creates a sense of place. It is the beginning of the sequence of cleansing through circulation, which goes through earth, water, then finally air. The path is designed with slopes and stairs to make one aware of the created environment, which is important for the success of experiential architecture. To add to that, there are isolated and narrow moments when one needs to contemplate oneself and then large open spaces for contrast.

Original Urban Fabric and grain Physical and Visual Barriers Car and Foot Traffic
Pre-urban renewal, the West End had a lot of layers which gave it culture, diversity and vibrance. Now it is stark and lifeless. There is a lack of activity and foot traffic aside from housing, due to disorientation and lack of diverse programming. To add to that, there are also visual and physical barriers that discourage access from the outside. In return, they were able to provide a safe area with a lot of green spaces. Unfortunately, those green spaces are no where near maximum utility.
I used urban design to reanimate and revitalize the West End by using the concept of layers. Layers enable me to maximize the area by adding program while maintaining the green spaces. The green spaces are vital to maintain due to the surrounding highways that produce toxic fumes.
I tried to use the same concepts of layering on my residential units by bringing the greenscape inside the building and stacking them.

4 // OVERLOOK TERRACE PLAySCAPEThe concept for this design for a playscape is to create an environment that promotes impulse and running by controlling slopes and increasing surface area.
Running is a universal means of terrestrial locomotion allowing humans and animals to rapidly move on foot. Defined as “gait” in atheltic terms, running is when two feet are off the ground simultaneously, in contrast to walking where one foot is always on the ground. Running speeds can vary and can also be controlled.
Most children play through running and it is a means of connecting them through a millenia of human history. Unfortunately, less and less children are running because of the current inactive and lethargic lifestyle, and decrease in safe available space.

5 // OVERLOOK AT WOOd ISLANd MARSHThe concept was to create a physical boundary between the built and natural environment and isolate each ecosystem that originally created a contested space, while utilizing each of their own innate activity. This innate activity is utilized to manipulate the amount of work the user experiences, which allows the architecture to have a contrast between moments of work and rest, giving the participant space for respite, defined as “a short period of rest or relief from something difficult or unpleasant.” These areas of respite are created using sound manipulation to change the noise from the train.

6 // ORgANIC HEALTH SySTEMI believe that healthcare is a fundamental right and should be accessible to all, inclusive of not only basic primary care but also up to tertiary. It is not a privilege that is given only to those who can afford it. Yet, our current health delivery system in the Philippines is just that. It is largely driven by private forces aimed at maximizing their profit. In return, the public healthcare delivery structure is suffering due to inefficient distribution of resources, which in the long run is unsustainable.
This design is a manifestation of my intense research of multiple healthcare systems across different context and country’s including the Philippines. I have concluded that successful healthcare systems must be research-based within a decentralized referral system with proper gatekeeping, in contrast to our current commerce-based centralized system.
When designing a utopic idea, I believe that you not design the infrastructure and spaces, but instead you design the process that leads to its construction. In this manifesto, I am proposing what I believe is a utopic process that can lead us to a truly efficient healthcare system that is accessible to all. Since it is based on a process and not built infrastructure, it also has a great adaptive capacity, which is necessary for countries that are prone to natural disasters like the Philippines.
One of the initial drivers for this design was the recent Typhoon Yolanda that killed hundreds in the Eastern Visayas Region. In spite of the hundreds of volunteers and millions of aid, emergency medical relief was poor at best, caused by multiple reasons including poor infrastructure and political instability. We cannot allow this to happen again.
Therefore, my proposed healthcare system is not only efficient and accessible to all but also have a great adaptive capacity making it resilient to any scenario that might affect the health of a population. As a result, it is truly an organic healthcare system.

My proposed Modular Mobile Unit come in two major categories: Independent and Dependent. The independent units have a complete mechanical system including power and water supply, while the dependent units have to rely on the independent units for said provisions. Functionality and comfortability were my priority when designing these mobile units. During my research I came upon numerous designs for mobile medical units but felt that they often lacked one of the two. All units are equipped with: skylights to enhance user experience, photo-voltaic panels to lengthen operation time, large apertures to improve transparency and enhance user experience, foldable edges to improve structure and create different aggregation vernacular, ventilation fans to increase air circulation, air conditioning to keep interior space dry and cool which increases user experience, water tank to provide clean water, battery that recharges at the docking station, and a garbage vestibule that is decontaminated in a docking station which resolves hazardous waste. For primary care, I have designed a total of 5 units including clinical diagnoses, chemical laboratory, radiology, pharmacy, and isolation/recovery.

It is important to have a standardized set of construction guidelines to maintain accountability and ease of construction. However, it is also vital to design a sense of community within the design. Successful medical facility design in part hinges on its ability to contribute to a community’s sense of place, its genius loci. By engaging the community through shared garden space, markets, and restaurants, the clinic has the ability to define its own unique identity through cultural and vernacular qualities. Therefore, design for the District Hospital is not only organic for the way it is structured but leaves space for the unstructured growth of a community and an identity.
Large skylight in the lobby to establish institutional identity and a place for people to enter and spend time rather than simply a space to rush through to reach another destination point.
District Hospital design includes a vast garden and courtyard with direct experience for patients. Unstructured contact with self-sustaining attributes of the natural non-human built environment hastens patient recovery.
Roof incorporates a therapeutic garden, rainwater harvesting for cultivating vegetables, and photovoltaic panels; all important for both the health of the patient and of the building.
