Aqualuna
Project: 16-Storey Luxury Waterfront Condominium
Scale: 225 Units
Area: 1,740 – 2,825 sq. ft. per unit
Location: 155 Merchants’ Wharf, Toronto

Project Approach
As part of a school assignment, I collaborated in a four-member team to
develop a detailed Revit model of Aqualuna at Bayside, a luxury waterfront
condominium designed by 3XN and Kirkor Architects. The project involved
architectural massing, interior modeling, and realistic visualization of the
building’s cascading terrace form inspired by Lake Ontario’s waves. The focus
was on applying BIM-based modeling techniques to capture design intent,
spatial organization, and façade complexity while maintaining precision in scale
and detailing.

Voxel House
Project: Multi-Storey Residential Redevelopment
Scale: 6 Floors
Site Area: 2,965 sq. m
Location: 39 Raglan Avenue, Toronto

Project Approach
As part of a group of six, I mainly worked on interior design for a 6-storey residential
building. The project involved adding new floors with eight units per level,
reorganizing corridors, and updating layouts to meet building codes.
I contributed to the coordinated LOD 300 Revit 2024 model, creating furniture
layouts, interior finishes, and detailed room designs. The assignment also included
MEP and fire protection coordination, landscape planning, and producing
construction documentation. Interior and exterior renderings were generated to
showcase the updated design.

Norsteel Niagra Project

Project: Pre-Engineered Metal Building (PEMB) Design
Project Type: Structural Design & Visualization
Client: Simon Green
Building Size: 32 ft × 35 ft × 14 ft
Location: Niagara Falls

Project Approach
As part of my role at Norsteel, I worked on the structural design and visualization of a
pre-engineered metal building for a client located in Niagara Falls. I developed the
complete building model in SketchUp, created realistic exterior renders in D5, and
performed structural load calculations and cost estimation using MBS (Metal Building
Software).
The project involved interpreting client requirements, designing the building
dimensions, cladding configuration, door placements, and ensuring the structure met
engineering standards. I coordinated model accuracy with MBS outputs, verified
loading conditions, and prepared cost details based on design

calculations used to validate building
performance. SketchUp 3D views illustrate

Syracuse Suites
Project: 14-Floor Residential Building
Project Type: Structural Design & Modeling
Building Area: 227,262 [Link].
Location: Toronto

Project Approach
As part of a school assignment, I developed the structural model for Syracuse Suites using Revit
Structure. The task involved linking an architectural Revit model into a new structural project,
pinning it in place, and adjusting view properties to a coordination view showing both structural
and architectural features.
I designed the complete structural system, including floor framing, columns, beams, shear walls,
and core elements, while ensuring accuracy, code compliance, and alignment with architectural
design
This is typical floor plan and roof plan of Syracuse Suites, created in
Revit. The plans illustrate room layouts, circulation, structural elements,
and roof design, providing a clear overview of the building’s spatial
organization and structural coordination.

Navisworks – Quantification, Timeliner &

Clash Detection
Project Type: Academic Project
Tools Used: Autodesk Navisworks Manage, Autodesk Revit

Project Approach

As part of a school assignment, I performed clash detection, developed a

quantification workbook using both UniFormat and MasterFormat classifications, and
created a 4D construction timeline with Timeliner to visualize sequencing and
coordination across disciplines.
The project involved detailed planning, cost estimation, and time management to
ensure efficient project execution. I focused on identifying and resolving conflicts
between building systems, including mechanical vs. architectural, mechanical vs.
structural, and structural vs. architectural components, ensuring accurate project
estimation and coordination.
Clash Detection

Utilized Navisworks to perform clash detection across architectural, structural and ME systems.
Generated and managed coordinated viewpoints to resolve design conflicts efficiently.
This process enhanced interdisciplinary collaboration and demonstrated my ability to deliver clash-free
models suitable for construction documentation.
Quantification Workbook

Utilized Navisworks to generate detailed quantity takeoffs using MasterFormat classification,

while leveraging UniFormat-based search sets to streamline element grouping and
organization.
Created custom UniFormat-based search sets to automate element selection, and developed
a structured MasterFormat-driven quantification workbook. Exported the data to Excel for
final quantity analysis and cost estimation.

SEQUENCING & 4D ANIMATION

I leveraged Navisworks Timeliner to create 4D animations simulating

construction progress linked with real-time scheduling data.
I used custom search sets and classification logic to connect model elements to
tasks.
