3. This is a half-round table.
The process involved build-
ing numeourous mock-ups
before building the real
deal.
I used walnut for the
table frame and
edge-banding,
and built the
table-top from
plywood
veneered of
bird's-eye
maple.
The inward
curves of the
frame were
made by gluing
veneers together
that fit around a
curved frame.
The whole thing
is so light I can pick it
up with one hand!
5. This was the first in the Architecture program stu-
dios at the University of Washington. It uses by-
pass framing to build an ideal retreat shelter in a
forrest in Cleveland, Washington.
The shelter provides:
-under-the-roof sleeping space for four students
-mid-level sleeps three faculty members
-ground-level public space with table and benches
-ground-level storage for -backpacks, etc.

7. This model combines Finite &
Infinite space.
The finite space is represented
as a room with a glass window.
And the infinite space is what is
seen in the winter scenery im-
age.
8. In this drama scene, the stage
is created for a story that takes
place in the early 1800’s Eng-
land. The mood of my chosen
scene evokes a sullen heavi-
ness in its atmosphere.
9. A cube with an image applied to
it is turned to create an optical
illusion.

227th is the only street in Des Moines
before directly connecting its downtown to the
moines
marina. It offers potential for street beau-
tification and an encouragement of pe-
wa
destrian traffic. This idea shows:
- increased retail, commercial, office &

- added trees & landscaping
tudio
- added historic street-lights
pring ‘08
- installed outdoor seating
- pedestrian-level storefronts
11. 227th & Marine View Drive intersection shows po-
before tential for enhanced experience of Des Moines, for both
vehicular traffic entering downtown from south and
future pedestrians. This proposal shows:
- closed street and consolidated properties

- paved public plaza
- public art as water feature

14. This is a Public Audio-Video Li-
brary concept for the corner site
of current Neumos night club in
Capitol Hill.
My scheme uses building ma-
terials as ribbons, interlacing
over and under and forming the
building’s exterior, and natural
illumination from above, to ex-
press rhythm and lightness in
my building concept.
The ribbons also make up the
roof, which steps down. So
they act as stair ‘treads.’ The
roof ‘risers’ are glazed, allow-
ing natural light to penetrate the
building envelope. Most of the
natural illumination comes from
here and the building’s front.
The program arrangement or-
ganizes the buillding into three
parts: front, back, and above.
The building’s front half is dense-
ly layered, and most public. The
back is airy and expanse. And
the top is most illuminated.
