morikami landscape gardens: in coming up with my idea behind this contemplation pavillion i took great emphasis on a quote that one of the master designers of the land-scape said, “ we exchange burden, boredom and despair for a more re-newal, inspirational and hopeful state of mind. which is exactly what i hoped to accomplish.

miami beach: this project was assigned in order to house an aspir-ing architect and musician. i elected to pick le corbusier and johann sabastian bach. what i found most influential about the site is the night life and interaction that some of the buildings had with the pedestrians. i chose to persue more of an extraverted attitude towards how i minipu-lated the site. therefore i wanted people to interact and be able to expierence the professionals talents.
