My 3rd year studio class visited St. Vincent on a study tour in January 2010. The tour involved an analysis of its main city, Kingstown, after which a national museum was to be designed individually.
My museum design was influenced by Kingstown's context - it is known as the city of arches. The building recreates the experience of walking through the streets of Kingstown. The permanent gallery display also relates to the concept in that its layout recreates a block of buildings surrounded by 4 streets. (see next page)
The locally quarried stone is utilized throughout the museum, as seen on the façade, to emphasize its contextual design.

The brief asked that a memorial be designed based on a memorable event that took place in Jamaica. The event chosen was the1907 earthquake which resulted in a fire .
The proposed location for the memorial is the centre of downtown Kingston at St. Williams Grant park. The memorial represents firstly the earthquake by an underground ‘crack’ in the earth. From this ‘crack’ comes 4 hollow aluminum members which represent the 4 days of the fire. Finally the abstract form - burnt and charred, represents persons who were trapped after the dreadful earthquake and subsequently died in the fire. These 5 members intercept at 8 points in plan view - representing the 800 lives lost.

The brief for thisproject demanded a
sustainable community which incorporated
commercial and residential users.The residential consisted of 3
categories – *mature, expanding and transient users. Besides this, provisions
were to be made for a property manager, laundry & mechanical room.
This main layout utilized the front of the site for the commercial and transient users while the back of the
site was designated to the expanding and mature families.
*Mature – middle age couple with 2 teenagers.Expanding – Young couple with one child, plans to have more children in the future.Transient – university graduates recently employed and living aloneSite planSite planSite planSite plan

The Mature and Expanding unit floor plans were designed on a 4.35m square grid. This allows typical floor plans that are mirrored or rotated to form the courtyards in the this section of the site that allows for natural light and ventilation – sustainable design.
