Architectural Design Concepts and Structural Studies

Another rendering of the proposed concrete house, showing how the design uses a combination of board-formed concrete, wood accents, and glass. The split-level balconies and terraces create a dynamic facade and provide multiple outdoor living areas.

The split-level design is clarified in this sectional drawing. The section shows how the volumes are arranged to allow visual connection across the central core of the house, ensuring that natural light floods the interior spaces from top to bottom.

This video illustrates the conceptual development of the Slate House. It starts with simple massing diagrams and progresses to show how the key architectural elements, like the staggered balconies and facade fins, were layered onto the core structure.

A sectional drawing of the Nairy Residence. This drawing reveals the core design concept, showing how the main staircase acts as a central spine connecting double and triple-height volumes, creating a complex and interconnected interior world.

This was my competition entry for the Hangzhou Rock Climbing Arena for the 2022 Asian Games, for which I placed second. The design is a sensuous, curvy intervention that mediates between a high-density housing district and hills with ancient Buddhist relics.

The roof form is a functional derivative of the need for a large cantilever over the outdoor competition arena, which fuses with the enclosed indoor gym. The public facilities and cafe are housed below the stilted viewing gallery.

An aerial view of the proposed rock climbing arena, showing how the two main structures are placed on the site to create a central public plaza. The design responds to the surrounding topography, with the building forms echoing the nearby hills.
