RIVIERA03

Inspired by its location on the west bank of the Okanagan Lake across from downtown Kelowna, Riviera is a multi-family residential project envisioned as a distinctive resort-style development in the Kelowna region. The development will be an iconic scheme that features luxurious lakeside living, emphasizing lifestyle and exclusivity and an overall unique user experience.

The ripple facade emulates the beuty of the wave on Lake Okanagan and elegantly connects Kelowna residents to West Kelowna.

HOROWITZ THEATRE04

enhancing key connections _revitalizing a historic theatre University of Alberta – Students’ Union

CONCEPT

Arc Studio’s role in the revitalization of this historical Theatre was to enhance a key point of connections between campus, alumni, and the larger community. Restoration and expansion of the space were executed by bringing the design and technical elements of the Theatre up to date and judiciously expanding the flexibility and size of the pre-performance spaces to allow for a wider range of activities and programming.

The objective for this redeveloped Theatre was an efficient and competitive operation, additional / expanded performing spaces, and an overall enriched patron experience.

HOPE MISSION

COMMUNITY CENTRE05

a shared place for local outreach and a congregation’s home

Red Deer, Alberta

The building features a generous two-storey volume lobby and viewing gallery, an administration office block, an extensive commercial kitchen, and a variety of different-sized classrooms throughout the second floor. A thick exposed concrete wall separates the gymnasium from the rest of the building and anchors the building as its central spine.

The exterior site is enhanced to support the new variety of uses and includes a new playground space, expanded community gardens, a playing field, a substantial increase in planted vegetation and trees, and a notably extended entrance procession off of Northey Avenue.

CBDX Cities for All

This international design ideas competition—the first in the CBDX series—asked, What does a city for all look like? How does it operate and function? How can it come into being? What place, structure, thing, system, process, or relationship must be forged to engender a more just and equitable ‘city for all’? And in particular—this is perhaps the most crucial question—the competition asked, How are these aims navigated by, through, and with the current uncertainty wrought by the ongoing global pandemic and the long-term existential threats of environmental degradation and climate change?

MAIN IDEA

A city relies on the interlinked set of networks, strategically placed to allow better connectivity and communication. Based on this strategy the pattern was derived which opens up at several locations to promote various relations to flourish. The core concern of this proposal was to deal with the flooding problem in Calgary. The main purpose is to create the canal systems which will absorb the water like sponge, rather than blocking it.

Regular Days

During Flood

Every block has their separate central plazas where people can gather for different activities and occasions. The pedestrians connect these urban zones with the other zones providing accessibility throughout the city. The farms are placed on a higher ground as apple orchards requires well drained soil. As this is on a sloped ground, it allows the flood water to get drained easily.

MOTIJHEEL GOVT. PARK

Work Experience,Doors Architectural Consultants Ltd.

Worked on Concept phase, design development and presentation drawings & Animation

Motijheel Govt. Park is situated in the heart of commercial area of Dhaka. The main concept is to provide a breathing space for the corporate people and the locals. The seating spaces are mainly placed in the middle of the site, where the big trees are surrounding them. Big trees and bushed are placed so that they create a noise and visual barrier from the busy city.

My role in this project was to create drawings, making physical models, materials for visual presentations and animation.
