Project Description: 

Expo Georgia, set within the post-industrial Didube-Chugureti district of Tbilisi, the capital of Georgia, is a 15-hectare campus located northeast of the historic city center. The complex is centered in an extensively landscaped sequence of gardens and park spaces, accessed by parkways and pedestrian paths. Soviet-era pavilions are distributed across the site, developed as a regional exposition during the 1960s. The scale, texture, topography and available footprint of the existing site established the parameters of the two-phase masterplan for the campus including a 52,000 square meter exhibition center, a new 200-key hotel and ballroom, commercial development, a 10-screen Cineplex and below and above-grade parking.

Project Description: Situated on high ground adjacent to the Mississippi River, Magnolia Mound was a working plantation established in 1791. Today, Magnolia Mound’s mission is to illustrate and interpret the French Creole lifestyle through educational programs, workshops, lectures, festivals and other special events. The design intent of the project is to emphasize the importance of site and topography as it relates to Magnolia Mound. The minimal intervention seeks to elevate the existing historic buildings and site by establishing a clear threshold for visitors as they circulate around the base of the mound. As one transitions through the new visitor center and ascends to the top of the mound, the building merges with the landscape to become unobtrusive and imperceptible. The top of the new structure aligns with the elevation of the high ground of the mound, establishing a datum which links old and new architecture on site. Translucent channel glass was selected to subtly obscure occupants within and around the new building like an impressionist painting – blurring the distinction between new and old, building and landscape.

Project Description: 

The vice table, originally intended to hide or conceal contents within, evolved into a fluid table surface with a depression for multiple uses. During development of the table, a seamless transition from the table surface [mahogany or walnut] to the tray surface [cast aluminum] became the main focus as well as the desire to utilize digital technologies available at the school. Every piece was fabricated from the same computer model, making use of the large CNC mill exclusively. In order to cast the legs and table tray, the match-plates were milled out of basswood so as to remove as much handwork as possible. Shrinkage of the aluminum during the casting process had to be taken into account and tolerances had to be added back into the model from which the final wood tops were milled. The results were extremely accurate and aside from minor distortion of the aluminum casts, the aluminum-to-wood transition meshed into the seamless table top that was desired.
