Rice University
Houston, TX
2022
Unbuilt
Dormitory expansion proposal for Rice University to renovate the existing Old Sid Rich College, addressing two key goals: a 20% increase in capacity and carbon neutrality by 2030; the project introduces a “backpack” addition that preserves the historic fabric while enabling vertical growth, increasing density without expanding the campus footprint.

1014 - space for ideas
New York, NY
2020
Unbuilt
The approach to converting 1014 Fifth Avenue, the former Goethe-Haus, was to “adopt and adapt”: not a sentimental restoration, but a careful update that projects the building into the future. We preserved its sequence of interconnected rooms while introducing minimal, code-compliant interventions (ADA, egress), enhancing the original design with as little disturbance as possible.

Unbuilt
The MET Warehouse transformation proposal treats adaptive reuse as a dialogue with the existing, reprogramming the historic structure into a design hub through strategic cut-outs and staggered voids that reveal the interior, organize circulation, and balance preservation with permeability.

Harvard Graduate School of Design
2018
Unbuilt
This project reimagines the Menil Collection as an active mediator of culture and time, using CLT-driven form and industrial references to create an architecture where meaning emerges between buildings and landscape rather than within a singular object.

Gravel Pit
Iñaki Ábalos
Harvard Graduate School of Design
2017
Unbuilt
La Plana del Corb, the Sorigué construction
company’s gravel pit is located behind a hollowed out
mountain that conceals a scenography of industrial
activity, material experimentation, and contemporary
art exhibition. This project uses the Sorigué
prefabricated concrete catalogue in different ways to
create the visitor spaces to accommodate the Fondación Sorigué collection of artworks by Anselm Keifer, Bill Viola, Juan Muñoz,
and William Kentridge.

How U.S. Biological Stations Turned Nature into Information
Data Centers: An Environmental History of Information 1850-1950
Laboratory for History and Theories of Architecture, Technology and Media (HITAM)
École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL)
2025-Ongoing
My research traces how U.S. tropical field stations in Latin America functioned as architectural and scientific outposts of environmental quantification, linking metropolitan monuments like the Smithsonian Institution and the United Fruit Company Headquarters to infrastructure in the jungle and laying the groundwork for modern ecological science and cybernetic thinking.

Option Studio
Harvard Graduate School of Design (GSD)
2024
Echoing Robert Smithson’s notion of “ruins in reverse,” this studio takes Hamburg’s halted Elbtower as a speculative monument that has “risen into ruin” before completion, using it to explore how unfinished, extractive developments can be reimagined through adaptive reuse, material recovery, and regenerative urban strategies to transform stranded investments into new civic and ecological value.

Module Option Studio
Harvard Graduate School of Design (GSD)
2023
Set in the extreme desert conditions of Presidio County, Texas, this project reexamines the utopian ambitions of 1960s avant-garde architecture through the lens of climate crisis and technological change, proposing speculative megastructures and scalable bio-based construction systems as new models for sustainable, narrative-driven forms of habitation.

Module Option Studio
Harvard Graduate School of Design (GSD)
2022
Built in 1932 by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe on Berlin’s Obersee, Haus Lemke has undergone shifting uses—from private residence to Red Army garage and later occupation by the East German secret police—before its restoration and reopening in 2000 as a contemporary exhibition space, and now serves as the site of a speculative studio exploring how an architectural extension, framed by the ambitions of Bauhaus Earth, might expand its cultural, pedagogical, and ecological role while critically revisiting the legacy of modernism.

OMA/AMO/Guggenheim
Rotterdam, NL
2017
Developed for Countryside: The Future and informed by fieldwork in East Africa, this project examines how conservation infrastructures—from telemetry tracking to biosphere zoning—reshape human and non-human relations, proposing “zones of reciprocity” as hybrid territories of shared habitat that challenge the boundaries between wild and managed landscapes, with a focus on the adaptive behaviors of mountain gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park.

Montreal, Canada
2016
Archaeology of the Digital: Complexity and Convention at the Canadian Centre for Architecture examined a pivotal moment when digital design shifted from experimentation to standard practice, revealing how shared tools, workflows, and abundant native-digital archives transformed architectural production—enabling greater complexity, coordination, and innovation across scales.
