ruston film center
site: ruston, lastudio: arch 315date: fall 2009concept: the project revitilizes the concept of the cinema existing as a social center as well an educational facility. by lifting the center into the air, the structure creates a large public space beneath its underbelly. all of the structure is left exposed to replicate feeling of being beneath a car and provides an opportunity to educate its visitors on how the building functions. the main cinema lies in the core of the building’s chassis, functioning as the engine without which the entire program would fall apart.

c.r.a.m.b. complexsite: ruston, lastudio: arch 325date: winter 2010concept: located adjacent to an existing baseball complex, c.r.a.m.b. pays tribute to ruston’s lineage as a prisoner of war camp. by displaying the original camp ruston barracks on the surface level, audiences are drawn into the design. below, they see a series of strategically placed light wells encrypting and revealing the u505 below. the entire design explores the idea of pattern and code and uses it to stitch together the radically different programs.

migrant worker housing
site: monroe, lastudio: arch 415date: fall 2010group: christopher anderson & cameron tremeconcept: the project promotes socialization between residents and the immediate public through the extracting and relocating of private spaces into a more public domain. by transplanting the kitchen into a public atrium, residents are encouraged to eat and associate with one another, cook meals and celebrate festive occasions. the large garden on the east side of the site welcomes in the public and revitalizes the idea of share cropping and demonstrates Its ability to refresh an urban setting.
