Making+Meaning exposes participants to a wide range of tools and techniques that integrate digital representation, architectural design, and fabrication methods, culminating in a public exhibition where students present their design work and receive feedback from noted architects and design professionals.

Made with Rhino and Twinmotion, I use the letter “c” as a geometrical base component. It is deformed, exploded, aggregated, clustered, and scattered into new compositions of varied degress of complexity. 

Constructing, deconstructing, and abstracting the letter “a” with Cinema4D. Using different iterative methods of three dimensional fracturing, fragmentation, and dissolution, I reconfigure the A into a complex massing resembling a deconstructed landscape. Each image is post processed, using render pass compositing techniques in Adobe After Effects.

Using ZBrush, Twinmotion, and Photoshop, I explore the back and forth process from 2D graphics to 3D form as a departure point to create a fictional ensemble. I use the letter “d” in different fonts with unique characteristics for my formal exploration.   

Vassar College, Urban Studies 375

 Vassar is officially designated as a park but it operates in a fashion directly opposite. A park has the infrastructure that facilitates and supports being outside, improving the fundamental health, beauty and livability of its surrounding community. While there are moments of remarkable beauty at Vassar, there is nothing that connects them and these assets are not accessible to visitors. My group and I are proposing activating campus as a park, a site of history and memorialization, and a place of exercise for both visitors and the Vassar community, and by doing this, Vassar moves from being an institution to an amenity. *my own renderings*
