Pier 53 Marine Transfer Sta onGansvoort Peninshula, New York2010 Fall, Robert Marino Studio

New York city needs a new Marine Transfer Sta on (MTS) as part of Solid Waste Management Plan. The MTS will be used to ship out recyclable waste from the city such as paper, metal, and plas c. The design aims to build a new industrial monument which is integrated into a water park. A colonnade of steel structure and translucent walls create a unique atmosphere in the park and the pond at the center reminds visitors of the beauty of water. The MTS was designed simply but strongly with its folded metal roof and diagonal steel braces as a new monu-ment of sustainable life in the city.

Nondenomina onal ChapelWest Village, New York2009 Fall, Fabian Llonch Studio

The chapel located next to Washington Square was designed to create a space of serenity. Its impressive facade was created by the volume cut the corner and countless perforated windows. The triangle space in front of the chapel con nues to the slope inside. Its interior spaces are illuminated with the light from square windows. Three diff erent-sized sanctuaries accomo-date various types of visitors from individuals to groups. Visitors to the chapel can sink into the silence of serenity leaving the hec c streets.
