New Fitness Center in Newark Empowers Local Youth; Designed by @FC3ARCHITECT
Posted: February 20, 2012 Filed under: Architecture, JustArch, More FC3, My Firm | Tags: Al Countino, Architecture, Auggie Amador, Capa Construction, Cory Booker, Design, EcoMonday, FC3 Architecture, Fitness Center, FitOut, Interior, Ironbound, Lopes, Newark, Restoration, Restore 3 CommentsThanks to the City of Newark‘s Planning department and the support of local city officials, Augusto “Augie” Amador and Al Coutinho and local businesses this old warehouse restoration project is in the process of being reconstructed. The decapitated, abandoned building has been restored (as envisioned by the Owner/Manager, the Architect, and the Contractor). The existing structure was salvaged and reconstructed to maximize its reuse as a new fitness center. The 10+ square foot facility boosts all the latest equipment and is run by a management team who have more accomplishments (and body building titles) that could ever be listed here. “….The space will also be an outreach to the local children of our community who need a new place to work out and be mentored by trained seasoned professionals.” Click here for more information and join them on Facebook.

Attention Deficit Disorder – Designing Every 2 to 3 Minutes
Posted: August 27, 2011 Filed under: Architecture, Isms, More FC3 | Tags: 2-3 Minutes, ADD, Architecture, Disease, isms, Mental, Newark, Theory 4 CommentsA.D.D. may be over diagnosed these days (especially in schools), but during Architecture School one of my professors wanted my friend to see how long I could stay at my drafting table (remember those? I’m dating myself here, although my class may have been one of the last to use them). After a few minutes I would get restless, now with social media I can work on several things at once which satisfies the A.D.D.
What we discovered (after several all-nighters) was a direct link between where I lived and the airplane “noise” I would hear subconsciously (after living under the flight zone my entire life my consciousness had completely tuned it out). I used the timing of the flights (every 2 to 3 minutes) to help inform my Architectural design theories. For example;
Here is a map of where I grew up:
Perhaps this helps shed some light on how I operate!

Being an Architect who is an aspiring Artist & Photographer I feel like this collage/montage demonstrates the ability of the Architect’s eye to capture light, shapes, and textures of the city on a new and interesting way. I hope that by experimenting with my skills as an Architect/Artist/Photographer I can offer a new perspective on things to my audience. I hope you enjoy this piece as much as I do.
