INTERCHANGE REED STREET YARDS TECHNOPOLE

MASTERPLAN

The high density of the site is meant to be a catalyst for higher density development outward from the project into the city. The park exists as a relief to the high density and also as a highly accessible public space. The site is naturally severed from the city, however the master plan aims to suture itself into the city by embrac-ing the urban grid.

Given the irregular geometry of the site, need for a landmark icon and a high functioning contemporary park both St. Marks Piazza and Parc André Citroën were studied as precedent for public space.

BEACONThe masterplan invigorates and reintegrates a defunct rail yard back into the fabric of the city. The Interchange project is located at a critical intersection from which both tower and base can be clearly viewed from the bustling 1st Street. The height of the tower will serve as a wayfinding landmark and orienting device for local neighborhoods.

CENTRAL IDENTITY & PLACE-MAKINGUWM is transitioning from a commuter university, to a more traditional universtiy. As many universities often have a central unifying element, a quad, a lawn, a courtyard which give the campus a sense of identity. UW-Milwaukee however has the figural spaces needed for creating identity but they are poorly defined, bleeding spaces. The spatially unifying canopy design aims to provide the campus with a 4 season protected microclimate providing more opportunity for students to utilize the space year round. If such a place exists, it may just help aid the burgeoning UWM student body a heightened sense of identity.

RENEWABLE ENERGYThe glazed canopy is imbed-

ded with photovoltaic panels. This canopy will provide a renewable source of energy for the student union and UWM campus.

FALL 2011

THRESHOLD VACILLATIONThe model’s kinetic properties portray the varying degrees at

which worshipers experience ephiphanies in their practice.

PRACTICE OF WORSHIPThe worship model uses materiality to describe the practice of a devout. The vertical transparent acrylic layers represent

the pracitce of returning to a place of sanctity. Few people move beyond the entry of a faith. Once embracing a faith fewer

and fewer people reach that point of deeper enlightenment. Along the way there are moments or epiphanies that deeper

connection to a practice of faith and place.

INTERPRETING THE PHOTOGRAMLight is an integral component to any worship space. Photograms have the potential to reveal latent characteristics of light any object

when exposed. The worship model was photogrammed to discover any such latencies. Light and compositional qualities of the photo-

grams were diagrammed in watercolor and weighed against programmatic elements. The abstractions of the watercolors were then

distilled into a simpler diagrams. This process led quickly to a highly sophicated floor plan and section.

BOTTOM UP DESIGN PROCESSThe simplicity of the detail connection will provide for easy breakdown or folding up of the arms of the scupture. The connections will provide for varying juxtapositions of the the sculpture. The arms may potentially serve as an armature for lighting fixtures.

MATERIALSFifteen pallets were broken down into their components and each of which were reused as 98% of the kit of parts for the scupture. Joint connections were com-posed of refuse and used lamp hardware.

DEXTERITYThe flexiblilty of the componentry is critical to the assembly and balance of the piece. The kit of brass and steel components provided adjust-ment with connecting inconsistancy drilled wood componentry. The sculpture became more dynamic than imaginged based on the dexterity of the components in connectivity beginning at the ground and echoing through to the top of the peice.

BRICOLAGEThe panels were fastened together using existing holes in each panel so that each part could be dissasembled and reused for its original or other function.

Ambient Street Sound: A 10 second interval was recorded of the ambient street sounds & translated into a facade rythym, creating a an auditory snapshot.

AMBIENT SKIN FABRICATION METHODOLOGIES

DESCRIPTION:

Name: Phenomenal TransparencyType: Facade Prototype

FALL 2011

PROCESSES USED

Acrylic - Table saw, laser cutter

PROTOTYPE ASSEMBLYThe panel is composed of acrylic, however with actual curtain wall construction in mind the panel would change. The frame would be extruded aluminum and it’s integral components would remain acrylic where as the exterior and interior surfaces would be fritted glass.

VOYEURISTIC APPEALOblique views through the skin are varied between reflecting, tinted and clear vertical slats. The diaphanous quaility of the panel is revealed when viewed perpendicular. The view to the interior is revealed potentially piquing curiosity. The inquisitor must nearly press their face against the glass to see the inner workings of the buildingIt is at this time the building occupants and the voyeur realize one another and a unique interaction is struck, thus depicting the fascinating agency of material consciousness.

FOCAL AREA

FOSTERING FIELD LINKAGESUW-Milwaukee is a relatively young and burgeoning campus. The campus has developed piecemeal into collection of unre-lated Introverted object buildings with poor relationships to the figural spaces they shape. This discursive state of public space is a large contributor to the campus’s lack of identity. This project aims to create an opportunity for an identity to take root and grow by asking for the university buildings to perform more for their immediate users and their community.


LAYERED CONNECTIONSThe bridge carries the experience over Maryland avenue creating a second story rela-

tionship between the new school and it’s collaboratorium and the

FIXEDFLEXIBLE PUBLIC PUBLIC REALM


VARIABLE SPACEInspired by the ‘Black Box” theater, the flexiibliy of the design allows the space to be customized accommodate a multiple audience types and events. The layered curtain filter’s light into the collaboratorium within the layers and allows the space to expand and contract.


NATURAL LIGHTINGAn operable skylight baffle system controls natural light entering the space.

This light is filtered through microperforated diffuse acoustical ceiling panels

creating a visually stimulating variably glowing ceiling.

PUBLIC SPACEThe second level hosts an appropriately sized public space flanked by a mixture of office, classroom and restaurant program. However the space also has tranfromative ability to become audience seating for large outdoor performances/events.
