Uriah Bueller is the founder and CEO of Parasoleil, whose sole vision is “to bridge art and environment to create places where people want to be.” As a sculptor and entrepreneur, his practical study in what draws people to certain places over others is what connects his involvement in many diverse organizations and inspired him to become a WELL Accredited Professional.
He is best known for having developed the “Pattern Map” categorizing 200+ unique and engineered patterns for use in architecture and site development for overhead shade, ceilings, privacy screening, public art, railings, wall cladding, and exterior building facades. His work in developing new UV-stable finishes with a variable “patina” powdercoat has been awarded for its innovation, as has his business model for advanced manufacturing.
Uriah has taken a simple art form and turned it into a highly engineered product with an efficient, dependable manufacturing process with his team of project managers, architects, interior designers, fabricators, and engineers. By doing so, he has lowered the barriers of creating and customizing architectural products for both residential and commercial applications. His passion to teach others what he has learned in business leadership and in making a lasting impact for better neighborhoods fuels his ongoing engagement beyond the walls of Parasoleil.

A Pattern Map evaluates a pattern on two key elements: structure and nature. This course explains why these two elements affect how we recognize and respond to pattern and examines ways to bridge architecture and nature by using architectural panel systems with patterned openings, and provide a sense of space, privacy, shade, or camouflage with cladding, screens, or railings.
HSW Justification:
Pattern improves the physical emotional and social well-being of those who experience the space. It protects those who occupy the space, and pattern enables equitable access, elevates human experience, encourages social interaction and benefits the built environment.
Learning Objective 1:
Students will learn to compare patterns on a patten map
Learning Objective 2:
Students will learn to explain how different characteristics of a pattern functionally and aesthetically impact the visual space.
Learning Objective 3:
Students will learn how to select the openness factor and base material that will help meet project objectives.
Learning Objective 4:
Students will learn how to apply HSW Best Practices to provide privacy, facades, camouflage, shade, or railings with architectural panels with patterned openings.
