This project involved digitally reconstructing Lever House in Revit and exploring new programmatic possibilities for the building’s floors. The work focused on spatial organization, adaptive reuse, and energy analysis to better understand the building’s environmental performance and potential improvements LEVER HOUSE New York, NY
“Symbiosis” is an accessory dwelling unit conceived as a symbiotic extension of a primary home. The project explores independence within proximity, testing how scale, orientation, and environmental strategy allow two structures to coexist in mutual benefit. SYMBIOSIS Portland,ME
Visual connection maintained between ADU and main house while preserving zones of privacy was achieved by dividing outdoor spaces into public and private zones Playground area designed with impact-absorbing safety surfacing, ensuring child protection and long-term durability under outdoor exposure Patio finished with French tiles, providing a durable, water-tolerant surface that supports outdoor use while allowing controlled surface runoff away from the building Site grading directs roof and surface runoff to two rain gardens and vegetated swales to retain 100% of storm water on-site under normal conditions Site grading directs roof and surface runoff to two rain gardens and vegetated swales to retain 100% of storm water on-site under normal conditions Herringbone brick pavers are utilized for pedestrian pathways, offering a stable, slip-resistant walking surface while promoting surface drainage through the joint pattern Exterior circulation routes provide accessible connections between the main house, ADU, and outdoor areas, with smooth patio-level transitions (≤1/2") and clear paths designed for easy wheelchair movement along 5' wide pedestrian walkways and a 12' wide driveway SITECONDITIONS SITECONDITIONS SITE CONDITIONS SITE CONDITIONS SITECONDITIONS USER REQUIREMENTS ADA/ SITE CONDITIONS

This project reimagines a narrow Harlem lot as a sanctuary for women students. Framed by two solid party walls, the building opens toward light and community through carved brick façades, inset windows, and intimate balconies. A central terrace anchors the shared spaces, creating a calm, protective environment where women can live, study, and feel at home within the density of the city. BETWEEN THE WALLS Harlem, NYC

A desert dwelling shaped by Tucson’s extreme climate, this project uses the courtyard as a cooling lung and a seasonal water collector during the summer monsoon rains. Roof planes are oriented to channel stormwater toward a central cistern, turning brief rainfall into a long‑term resource. The west façade is thickened with thermal mass to buffer the harsh afternoon sun, while openings are minimized to reduce heat gain and create a calm, dim interior atmosphere. Shaded circulation, controlled apertures, and material density work together to produce a refuge that responds directly to the desert’s cycles of heat, wind, and sudden rain DESERT RAIN HOUSE Tucson, AZ
