The Jackson on High: Condos/Retail Use
Project Role: Drafter/Project Coordination

For the most part, this project was developed/designed when I began working at the firm. My role was to assist in the documentation and coordination of different issues with the project. The project has many design elements that proved new and challenging for me, such as a roof top pool with operable skylight as well as many interior custom details. A large majority of the coordination occured with structural engineers as well as the mechanical engineers, determining the correct sizing of steel members as well as coordinating the HVAC layout.

Erie View: Condo Project
Project Role: Drafter/Designer (Int. Units)

The project as it stands is currently under re-design due to several factors (i.e. additional site being acquired). The elements that I focused on were the interior layouts of the individual units as well as working on the elevations and how the different elements fit together. The focus of the design issues on this version mainly rested on whether the two buildings should be connected together, the amount of curtain glazing (project located several blocks from Lake Erie) on the penthouse level, and the height relationship between the two buildings. These issues are being discussed along with the potential of additional land for the building.

The Heights: Condo/Retail Project
Project Role: Designer

The project is situated in the 'downtown' area of Grandview Heights, a suburb of Columbus. The project contains both retail (bottom floor) and condos on the remaining floors above. The client wished to create a building that utilized more traditional elements on the exterior, such as the mansard roof, bracket and cornice detail, quions, etc. However, the interiors are characterized with more modern elements, high ceilings, fixtures, appliances and finishes. Two challenging aspects of the project were the limited size of the site as well as the existing fabric of the area, where the buildings were predominately smaller in scale. The solutions to both problems came in the massing and articulation of the building and its features (i.e. glass projection, solid base and stepping back the condo portion, material choices).
