Portfolio: Practice(Immaculate Conception Church)

As Assistant Project Manager for this Catholic church in Calais, Maine, I was tasked with translating schematic level design drawings into a 3-d computer model as well as generating all architectural construction documents. While my involvement in the concept design was negligible, I was responsible for most of the detailing throughout the building, as well as all submittal review and a large part of the construction administration. Project is expected to be completed in early 2008.

Portfolio: Practice(Brewer Public Safety Bldg)

As Assistant Project Manager for this $6.5 million Police & Fire Station in Brewer, Maine, I was tasked with heading up the work effort to produce all Architectural drawings. My original design concept(images on right), which was chosen by the client, attempted to resemble a formal northeastern municipal building melded with traditional New England farm house to create a play between formal and informal, past and present. It was my intention to place the administrative wing of the building on the high point of this sloped site to accentuate its hierarchical importance. The design has gone through some iterations, and the final massing model can be seen on the left. Foundations are presently in, and steel will be placed soon.

Landscape design for my personal residence in Glenburn, Maine(above)

Lessard Residence (above)

the client wanted something reminiscent of traditional Maine colonial style architecture for this coastal community. I worked with window proportions/placement, roof pitch, and shed dormers to help give the client both a functional/affordable design, and an aesthetically pleasing one.

Halpern Residence(above)

Because of the difficult site, it was important to the builder to accentuate the horizontality of the home so as not to make the rear appear too tall. I played with hip roofs, horizontal banding, and deep overhangs to achieve this.
