Photography by Iwan Baan

A standard-bearer for flexibility in the performing arts, the Lindemann is the new home for the Brown Arts Institute at Brown University. A highly complex but automated workhorse, the Lindemann is five buildings in one, as the floors, walls, and ceiling of its main hall transform into different preset configurations, each specifically tuned for orchestras, choirs and recitals, an end-stage theater, flat floor events, and immersive experimental media modes. 



A cantilevered, mirrored-glass “clearstory” cuts through the fluted anodized aluminum facade, negotiating a gently sloping grade and bringing radical transparency to the making of the arts at the heart of Brown’s “open curriculum.” “Infinite Composition,” a new spatial LED artwork by Leo Villareal, clads the faces of the vertical vierendeel truss members in the low-slung lobby.

Ragdale Ring Competition, Lake Forest, IL

“I want everyone to feel as much as possible as if they inhabit the same space. The more fluid the relationship between actor and audience, the better.”

-Christine Jones



An arrangement of dioramas sit nestled in a grove of trees on the West Lawn. These brightly colored objects separate themselves from the richly textured landscape of the Ragdale Campus while remaining grounded by a series of stepped platforms and projections. The arrangement of these elements sit within an implied circle which relates to Howard Van Doren Shaw’s original Ragdale Ring. A series of strewn stair-like objects are able to move freely around the installation, allowing performances, or fragments thereof, to be adjusted in their own preferred way.

Single Family House
Austin,TX1,600sf

2024-ongoing.
Enfilade House is an ongoing development for a modest single-family home in Austin, Texas. The organization of the house is defined by a 2x5 grid of 12’ square rooms: the living/occupied spaces on one side, the service spaces on the other across a 4’ circulation enfilade, which is capped by sawtooth skylights.
More to come.

2023-ongoing
It could be said that there is no more ubiquitous, quintessentially American architecture than the McMansion, the archetype of the single-family home in recent decades. Ironically, this icon of American architecture is rarely, if ever, designed or considered by architects.



The rejection of the McMansion by the discipline is not without merit; it exemplifies the pre-2008 excesses of real estate speculation, American consumerism, suburban copypasta, racial segregation, and a general bastardization of the architectural canon. The great critic Kate Wagner has notably pointed to all of this in her wildly successful blog, McMansion Hell.



Yet, the McMansion has persisted. What has resulted from this rightful criticism is a major sector of residential building which is almost completely devoid of architectural input or imagination. 



How can it be re-envisioned to support more diverse and affordable modes of living? Through the intervention of architectural devices, could the gaudy aesthetics of intersecting rooflines and mismatched, meaningless references be dealt with in a way that could be considered finally “worthy” of the discipline of architecture?

Element Houses were a guest series featured on @one_house_per_day which reconsidered traditional elements, objects, and symbols of single-family domesticity and how they could eventually be reconfigured in creating greater density on single-family lots, while still retaining the elements of a typical American home: porch, roof, chimney, dormer, bay window, and stair.&#60;img width="1920" height="1920" width_o="1920" height_o="1920" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/92424d81c3c5f5d0a52dc87665baf380fc1d0fb708eabbb60fdbc5d2ed3d5afc/Combined-GIF.gif" data-mid="235657480" border="0"  src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/92424d81c3c5f5d0a52dc87665baf380fc1d0fb708eabbb60fdbc5d2ed3d5afc/Combined-GIF.gif" /&#62;

Tiny House on Wheels

2016
Kinetohaus simply means “moving house;” in designing and building a tiny house on wheels in which to live while I attended graduate architecture school at the University of Texas at Austin, I was inspired by the flexibility and dynamism of lifestyle that comes with tiny houses. The project was a design-build experiment, a living laboratory of design decisions and their consequences.

Kinetohaus was an exploration into a typology - tiny houses on wheels - that is fundamentally different from static houses on foundations. Narrow and dynamic, Kinetohaus is wrapped in a durable metal shell and clad with rich, natural wood siding; natural light is considered as another material, helping a compact footprint feel spacious.

Brooklyn, NY

2022 (Directed/completed at Overlay Office)

Overlay Office’s submission to the “In The Round, On the Flat” show, “Playing House,” a medium-sized tabletop model made of wood and 3D-printed PLA plastic, begins with the idea of a Brooklyn townhouse transformed into a building block “toy.” Abstracting the scale and context of typical infill development, “Playing House” becomes a kit of parts for endless urban variation on constrained lots. Imagining a building as a toy facilitates opportunity to challenge flat, two-dimensional compositions and ornamentation typical of townhouse architecture. Instead, it explores the spatial variety of relief, three-dimensional composition, and whimsical tectonic play.



The media of the project all take on distinct roles in the perception of depth: the main object, the model, is a “model of a model,” or an assemblage of pieces and components which could vary in arrangement and scale. Components break traditional architectural constraints, where pieces start to fold down or break the edge of the table. The model itself is flanked by two images: a photograph of the physical model is staged in a studio with drawing props, and a rendering from a similar view explores digital qualities. The photograph, a medium which typically flattens the world as we see it, becomes dimensional like a rendering, with flat entourage added to the scene as in a collage; and the rendering itself explores layering and projection as it is re-rendered as a printed photo on a digital tabletop.

A Concept Design for a small developer in Williamsburg explores sculptural massing as a way to provide more outdoor space and natural light which is typically reserved for top floors in infill architecture. This concept would serve as the starting point for the “Playing House” exhibition entry.
