The GSP Airport needs to expand due to the constant demand on additional

flights. As a tool of making design decisions, various interviews were made

with passengers, employees and security staff. Their needs were then

translated into the current design. The current airport is more efficient, it

also creates a better atmosphere for the passengers. The design is also

environmentally friendly and user friendly.

Keep all the functioning elements [concourses]and remove the problematic elements [bridge + ticketing]

Add a new concourse to minimize the travelling distance.Align it with the East-West axis to utilize Passive Solar Techniques

Create a connecting hub that brings the 3 concourses together & hosts the extra desired programmatic elements [ticketing, restaurant, TSA, concessions, security, etc.]

Bring in the greenery from the site into the building and connect it to the currently inaccessible fountain.

Humanitarian Design:

Airports tend to make people nervous due to strict security procedures, time limitations and various other reasons.The design reassures travelers through its TRANSPARENCY. You could be eating at the concessions while watching your bags get successfully loaded onto the plane. It might sound like a minor detail, but it is the minor details that make us feel the safest most of the time.

10

In modern airports passengers line up in queues that are narrow, long and bordered with fabric ribbons, treating passengers as ”sausages ” being processed in a factory.The Fabric ribbons have been replaced with ISLES OF GREENERY allowing for a more open feeling and offering passengers a “ walk in the garden” experience.

The 3 different concourses are color labeled. As a secondary level of reassurance, an LED path finding system is implemented in the airport.

11

Situated in the bounded courtyard condition of the Architecture

building, the project is further shaped by the traditions of an annual

event scheduled to take place around it.

The language of the work is highly related to constructivist

assemblages, the De Stijl movement, the Schroder house, and the

ridged geometry of its setting. As a space for presentation, it invites

both internal exploration and extroverted activity. Its orientation to

public interaction is not frontal in the traditional sense of theatre but

operates through a set of perspectives that are at once a sequence

of destinations and a continuous folded pathway.

The Spanish city and capital of the Catalan province, Barcelona, is one of the densest urban environments in Europe. The design of the BIBLIOterra aspires to free the site from such density. It facilitates the creation of an urban plaza while holding all the functions necessary for the program, allowing the visible and the invisible to simultaneously coexist in an architectural duet. This solution creates, through minimal means, maximum functionality and architectural resonance.The library is sunken into the ground. The roof then functions on the exterior as a triangulated plaza that allows direct urban movement. These lines of movement carve the roof and create its form. As for the “walkable” exterior walls, their angles are shaped by two conditions; first, the usability of the walls as walkways and second, the characteristics of passive solar methods.

The BIBLIO [TIERRA]In the middle of the Catalan city, Barcelnoa. The form is driven by the main concepts of NATURAL LIGHT, GREEN ENERGY and the creation of an URBAN VOID.The visitor_building relationship is not limited in the BIBIO [TIERRA] to just the fl oor plates. Visitors can ecperience and interact with every plane in thebuilding including the sides and the green roof.

The walls control where the light enters the building and the intensity with which it enters. A continuous slope that splits occasionally to separate distinct programmatic elements while maintaining visual continuum forms the entire ground floor of the library.

The BIBLIOterra hosts social activities inside the library and even outside on occasion, with exterior and interior theaters and surfaces that allow for “interpretary”programmatic spaces.

In the developing city of Anderson, South Carolina, a commercial strip is starting to evolve. Horizontal spreading and massive concrete parking lots are replacing the existing green forests.The HO[rise]ON FOLD, aims to bring back a healthier lifestyle, greener surroundings and defeat the horizontal spread. The concept of the design explores the possibilities of backtracking the problem. The program is first laid out horizontally, the way current development takes place. Then a series of folds allow for the maximization of space while minimizing the horizontal square footage. This folding of various programmatic elements allows for unprecedented adjacencies, thus, creating an interesting relationship between the different activities taking place in, on, and near the building.The series of folds are then sunk into the ground to take advantage of the river that runs next to the sight allowing citizens to experience it.

18

Both the HO[rise]ON FOLD and the contours of the site define a natural trail that runs within the site and into the building. Various other activities start developing due to the form, like white water kayaking, rock climbing over the folding plates of the building, skating, a flee market and many other spontaneous activities.Programmatic elements start to draw lines of varying speeds due to the nature of the program. These lines create nodes of interest where they meet. Cars, pedestrians, skaters, climbers, hikers, and even people sitting down, all define the space in particular moments.

The Wind Catcher is an alternative contemporary solution to the incessant problems of 1, horizontal land spread for agricultural usage and 2, nonrenewable energy consumption.

The Wind Catcher is located in Chicago, a city famous for its strong and fast winds. This attribute was the driving force behind the main concept of the design. The design maximizes Chicago’s wind power by channeling it through a large opening in the front of the building and directing it towards two smaller openings at the top of the building. This movement from a large space to a smaller one expedites the movement of the wind, according to Bernoulli’s law, which maximizes the harvested energy gathered by two turbines at the end of the two small openings. Using a series of calculations, the exact size of the openings was determined to guarantee a fully self-sufficient green building.

The Wind Catcher is a Vertical Farm Society. The building functions as an Urban Envelope. Residential apartments, farms, commercial spaces and educational centers are configured in internally connected neighborhoods to continuously explore the platonic relationships between them.

This is a 2- week project that explores the capabilities of alternative architectural structural techniques. The exercise aims to achieve two major goals:

1_Achieving structural integrity without using the common means of doing so. It revolves around allowing a continuous flow of air to fully support the structure. No beams, columns or any common structural elements were to be used.2_ A two dimensional surface was used to create a three dimensional object supported by airflow. In order to understand this concept, a multi-layered study was conducted concerning the transformation of 2D cloth patterns into 3D clothing. The development of this concept became the main driving force of design.The 42-foot design strives to capture the movement from the bottom floor of the building beside it and carry this movement through to the second level. 27

The intention of this design is to create a contemporary environmentally friendly house that is defined by the solar, wind, and aquatic attributes of its geographic location.The house is located in Washington State’s forest region. In this region, there are great amounts of rainwater (37’annual average). Winter is cold and rainy, the shortest day consists of 8.5 hours of daylight, and cold northern winds prevail.The summer is characterized by long days, with the longest day being 16 hours of daylight.The House was morphed by the natural necessities to not only protect it from the harsh climate, but to take advantage of what is provided by nature.

WINDS: The North-facing wall slopes up at an angle that allows the wind to swoop smoothly above the house instead of hitting it directly. In the summer, louvers open in the North-facing wall allowing a flow of air throughout the house, capitalizing on natural ventilation.

WATER: The slopes of the triangulated walls allow water to run effortlessly in one direction leading to a cistern at the bottom of the house.

SUN RAYS: The overhang of the roof is precisely measured to let sunlight in during winter and prevent it from entering the house during summer.

COLLABORATIVELY, ELEVATING FAMILIES

The LIVING WALL homeless shelter is a transitional housing facility that helps FAMILIES get back on their feet through a collaborative effort by the society. The shelter offers various services including; housing, medical care, educational classes and interaction spaces between the homeless society and other societies in Greenville. The housing system follows the HOUSING FIRST typology. Housing First typology looks at solving the homeless predicament through providing a home first and then working with the homeless on finding a job and education. This typology dictates having a manageable number of residents to work with, which allows it to offer housing to a maximum of 20 families. The relatively small number of families allows families to receive full attention. “Graduates” of the program still come back to the shelter to use its educational facilities and inspire the current residents.The LIVING WALL in its physicality is constructed from salvaged Castellated beams from the city of Greenville. Pottery is then placed into the holes of the castellated beams to allow for local vertical farming.

What sets this Homeless shelter apart from all its other peers is how it facilitates the interaction between other communities in Greenville and the Shelter’s community. The Pottery society of Greenville, for example, is in continuous collaboration with the shelter. Members of the Pottery society come over to teach residents how to create pots and interact socially with the residents. Residents of the LIVING WALL benefit from these encounters from:

1. A social aspect where they become engaged with social levels different than theirs and that always leads to learning something new.

2. The physical aspect where they start producing POTS that would then go to fill up the holes of the castellated beams in the LIVING WALL.

The market is hosted under a protruding 190’ long cantilever. This is possible by using a 12’ wide truss that functions as an occupiable second floor. The cantilevering allows for an “open floor plan” market that can be reconfigured according to the need.

Through the right placement along the Natural Axis, the cantilever offers shade over the market in the summer time. In the winter, the cantilever protects the market from rain while amercing the market with sunlight for heating purposes.

Other communities like, the glass society of Greenville, would display certain art works within the holes of the LIVING WALL. The pots that are created by the residents hold vegetables, herbs, flowers and various other plants that create the LIVING WALL. These pots also work as a secondary insulating system due to the clay’s high resistance value. Edibles grown in the LIVING WALL are consumed by the residents, as part of their daily nutrition, and also taken to the market. Pottery, produce, flowers and much more are sold in the market and the revenue goes back to support the shelter. This is a very important aspect about this shelter. Shelters usually lack continuous financial support and this feature would allow this shelter to have a continuously steady income.

In the LIVING WALL, nature becomes the structure, and the LIVING WALL is brought to life by the residents for the residents in a circle of branching interdependencies.
