<strong>ca</strong>sting shadows<br />
This project looked at ways of extracting ideas<br />
through studying shadows. Plaster negatives of<br />
everyday objects were <strong>ca</strong>st, drawn, assembled<br />
and interpreted. In this <strong>ca</strong>se, inspiration <strong>ca</strong>me from a<br />
sketch model, leading to a design idea of light<br />
boxes, creating lanterns at night on a coastline.<br />

pavillion |<br />

The pavillion, sited next to the <strong>Dalhousie</strong> Killam Library<br />
on main <strong>ca</strong>mpus, featured a space for faculties to<br />
interact amongst eachother in an exhibition atmosphere.<br />
The pavillion utilizes a single undulating wall to<br />
divide the glass box into unique spaces for student’s<br />
to present or feature their work amongst other faculties.<br />

finding the s<strong>ca</strong>le<br />
This project looked at the issue of s<strong>ca</strong>le<br />
and the understanding of measure. A<br />
randomly generated site was <strong>ca</strong>st with<br />
the intention of determining s<strong>ca</strong>le through<br />
large charcoal drawings. The program<br />
was included an eating pavillion for ten<br />
and a small food preperation space.<br />
6
finding the s<strong>ca</strong>le<br />
In this second itteration, the eating space was collapsed<br />
in on itself in order to simplify the structure,<br />
and was cut to the side in order to maintain the<br />
intention of view that had informed both scenarios.<br />

seasonal community<br />
This project started without a site, encouraging<br />
an alternative design approach to starting with<br />
site analysis. Adopting a modifiable design was<br />
essential and drove the idea behind the design.<br />

theatre<br />
Lo<strong>ca</strong>ted at the entry of downtown<br />
Halifax, the site borders high-traffic,<br />
one-way streets, with a slower<br />
low-trafficked street used more<br />
by pedestrians and bus transfers.<br />
12
theatre<br />
In reponse to the site conditions, the<br />
site was divdied into two cupped<br />
hands, one an outdooor public<br />
space turning into a courtyard, and<br />
the other servicing the theatre space.<br />
14
theatre<br />
The rake of the seating played<br />
a large part in the design of the<br />
lobby. With a higher rake required<br />
for dance, there was the ability<br />
to slide the lobby under the hall<br />
enabling a large lobby space while<br />
maintaining a similar overall footprint.<br />
16
shifting ground<br />
This project looks at the human body and<br />
how to engage the senses of sight and spatial<br />
awareness to result in a more memorable space.<br />
The organization of space be<strong>ca</strong>me a representational<br />
exercise of how to mimic a fork in the<br />
road in the form of a stair, or a fork in the stair.<br />
18
the lamp<br />
The lamp was designed around<br />
three key elements: the base,<br />
the envelope, and the services.<br />
The assigned intention for the<br />
design was exploiting the base.<br />
20
furniture<br />
The intent of this project was to<br />
create a sense of place with as<br />
small of an architectural gesture<br />
as possible. The idea grew into<br />
a bench that creates a dynamic<br />
gathering space, with the wood<br />
piece serving strictly as seating<br />
while the conrete piece serves<br />
as both a bench or a side table.<br />
