INTEGRATED

Columbus AtheneumSemester: Fall 2014

Location: Columbus, Indiana

Emphasis: Integration of natural light control, structure, envelope, and HVAC.

Duration: Three months

Program: Temporary Exhibit Hall, Permanent Exhibit Hall, Archives, Restoration space, Theatre, Cafe, Library, sculpture gardens, and guest artists housing.

Response: Because our site was a long, narrow lot with minimal southern exposure and a parking garage to the west, the project emphasizes natural light from the expansive East facade. Galleries are located south, with functions organized with increasing privacy to the North and in upper floors.

Integration: Columns, HVAC equipment, and lighting are housed in the stone-panel- clad piers. These piers provide the necessary enclosure, support both curtain walls and the screening metal mesh, and partition the interior space.

Light: Sight analysis of the surrounding area revealed that Washington Street (our east facade) was a major pedestrian and vehicle route and the primary source of light for a continuous procession of businesses which utilize large windows for pedestrian views and daylighting, though most featured some type of light control.

Circulation: The activation of the East edge of the building occurs primarily through circulation. On the cround floor, the stone-panel piers convert the massive exhibit floor into bays, within which visitors ambulate around displays. On the third floor, the permanent gallery opens to a patio divided from the street by the metal mesh screen, controlling sunlight and sound while still offering an outdoor respite from the gallery for reflection both on the artwork and the activity of Columbus. Circulation for the rooftop sculpture garden (reserved for residences) similarly directs visiting artists to circulate around and between skylights with views down into the permanent gallery, with the common circulation lane along the East facade. This private vantage point allows artists privacy to view the downtown activity and reflect on Columbus architecture.

Giovannis RestaurantSemester: Spring 2014

Location: West Liberty, Kentucky

Duration: Half Semester

Partner: Elisa Padilla

Prompt: In September 2012, a pair of tornadoes hit Monroe County, KY, destroying 30% of businesses in West Liberty including the local restaurant Giovannis. We were tasked with bringing back this community favorite on a long, narrow site, a characteristic enhanced by the required drive-through.

Design Response: More than food, the community lost a crucial experience to the tornadoes: the shared meal. When imagining the new Giovannis, we wanted to emphasize the communal nature of dining and the facilitory role of the restaurant to bringing disparate elements together.

Interior Dining Experience- To facilitate community congregation despite the convenience of the drive-through, we maximized flexibility and customization of the dining area. The modularlayoutiseasilyreconfiguredforlargegroups,andceiling-mounted descending screens provide separation from the buffet and other tables. In addition, alldine-incustomersforthefirstmontharegivenatiletodecoratewhichwillcontribute to the facade, allowing the community to mark their place in Giovannis.

Site- Our site was a long, thin parcel visible from the main street, though set back on a parallel road. The challenge became how to feature a pleasant indoor dining experience despite the narrowness of the site, exacerbated by the requirement of a drive-through circumnavigating the restaraunt.

Kirei board- Made from local-grown sorghum, kirei board tables speak to the harvest and economy of the area.

Community tiles- Reclaimed from a local mural and added to by Giovannis patrons, these tiles actively display the local community on the building facade.

Brick- The traditional facade material, brick represents the history of the local community.

ConStrata MarketSemester: Spring 2013

Location: Barcelona, Spain

Emphasis: Pedestrian Visibility

Duration: Full Semester

Partner: Stephen Renard

Prompt: A surgical intervention of market and public space for the rejuvenation of a site in the Barcelonetta neighborhood.

Operative Map: To enhance the surprisingly low visibility of oursite,weidentified20 points- 10 by mapping pedestriantrafficand10 centroid of nearby public spaces, and mapped high/ low visibility areas when facing our site. We then applied a response to each condition, meant to attract visual attention, and thus attendance, to our market.

Low Visibility- Public Space Roof Structure- Sails

Four Systems: We identified a unique response to each visibility condition from the operative mapping process which would combine to enhance the visual interest of previously ignored or under-utilized space. The result is a visual draw toward the market, particularly through the new elevated footbridge, and the creation of two servant spaces, the Pavilion and the Plaza.

Low Visibility- Pedestrian Traffic Filters- Metal lattice or vegetation

High Visibility- Public Space Surface material change

High Visibility- Pedestrian Traffic Elevated Pedestrian Walkway

Market: A traditional Barcelona Market, idealized as a plaza covered by sails, rather than an enclosed building.

Pavilion: The previously empty plaza overlooking the marina was an oversized sidewalk, now a place for social gathering and vending.

Plaza: Beside a museum and cafe, a grove of pre-existing trees supports sails, creating a casual, comfortable plaza for vendors.

Praxi Childrens & Community TheatreSemester: Fall 2013

Location: Downtown Bryan, TX

Parti: Transparent Dishonesty

Duration: Full Semester

Partner: Kindall Stephens

Prompt: A fully realized Black Box Theatre complex for Downtown Bryan, Tx.

Response: The program is divided between two experiences: the public and the private, with an enclosed courtyard between them. This allows the building to embody the mask of acting, the facade an actor wears while performing, enhancing the mystery and allure of theatre.

Nature: Central to this design is a community greenhouse, a place for social interaction around a common, therapeutic activity for senior citizens.

Natural Light: Circulation surrounds the courtyard for wayfinding and pleasant views, and includes the community greenhouse for immersion of experience. Each activity space features windows on three sides, while curved roofs allow for north-facing clerestories, which receive pleasant ambient light with minimal heat gain.

Living walls: The greenhouse experience is carried into the circulation spaces through vertical planters built into select walls.

Hendrick Home for ChildrenFirm: CADCO Architects- Engineers, Inc.

Location: Abilene, TX

Contribution: Design of facades and exterior spaces, virtual modeling.

Design Considerations: Adding to the existing campus, this new front entry facility, a mix of housing and visitor center, strove to refresh the campus with comfortable exterior spaces where children could have privacy, but remain safe and monitored by their host parents.

Solution: Integrating a series of pergolas around doorways created a set of exterior porches, which ensured a comfortable residential feeling to the larger complex.

Aspermont ElementaryFirm: CADCO Architects- Engineers, Inc.

Location: Abilene, TX

Contribution: Design of facades, portico, and courtyard.

Design Considerations: With exterior spaces in Texas, particularly large concrete surfaces where children would spend recess, heat was a primary concern. With the portico, a solid expanse over the desired covered area produced dark corners and poor drainage.

Solution: Utilizing standard- dimension canopy structures and concrete planters provides low-cost, flexible cooling and a dynamic space for children to play.

Scan or click QR code for video.

Supporting the portico with cylindrical beams from the adjacent wall allowed light to enter the darkest corners of the entry, while thick walls with columns above 8 mediated south light.

SCHAWK! OfficesFirm: Chilress & Cunningham Architects

Location: Cincinnati, OH.

Contribution: Construction Documents

Client: A global cross-media production company, SCHAWK specializes in brand setting and advertising for such clients as BIC and British Petroleum. When the time came to expand their Cincinnatioffices,Childress & Cunningham got the nod to design the renovation.

Method: Childress & Cunningham utilizes a CAD software called Graphite to produce color-coded construction documents, allowing them to condense multiple layers of information onto a single sheet.
