#1 COURTHOUSE Hollywood, California
SUNSETGO
WER
F.2012
There are various organizational strategies that exist at the configuration of the site and its response to the surroundings. A green strip at the street rotates the main courthouse assembly slightly to both engage the public and also provide views of the Hollywood Sign from the street-facing surfaces.
Public entry is achieved best from the Northeast portion of the site while underground passages exist on the opposite end of the site for judges and for those held in-custody. The South most mass on the site is dedicated to public parking, additional undeveloped office space and commercial spaces at the ground floor.
In the center of these flanking elements exists a green courtyard which is experienced both directly by the public that travels from their parked cars to the courthouse and also visually by the judge and jury members from their respective chambers raised above the site.

Transparency, procession and day lighting
are the foci of the Hollywood courthouse. A ground level of offices provides a plinth above which the courtsets hover. As a result, the vertical circulation is stretched between the two and exposes the organization and separation of three very distinct user groups: the public, the judge, and those that are approaching the courthouse in custody. Although the paths of these user groups never cross and are securely separated, a stretch of vertical circulation allows all three to witness each other climb to the courtroom.
More significantly, the elevator shafts for the in custody has been both camouflaged and differentiated from the others with a steel web that is visible from the street, allowing a distinction between itself and its paralleled public shaft. Typically placed underground in the courthouse blocked off from light, the in custody holding cells in this project are placed at the top. This allows those on trial to receive light and to orient themselves according to the Hollywood sign, visible from the lifted location, and allows basic human rights to those that have not yet been convicted guilty of their accused crimes.

Tubular Façade translucency of information
The function of the piped façade is an effort toward exposing the contents of the courthouse only to a particular limit. The plinth composed of offices at the base as well as the larger courthouse spaces above receive light and allow a filtered view of the activities within. The result is the reception of a controlled amount of light and never allowing a completely clear view of figures that exist beyond, the performance of which operates similarly to the control of information exchange that occurs within the court of law.

ARTIST-FABRICATOR interior collaboration
The need for open collaboration and social interaction dictated the building’s interior form. A stretched void located in the center of the building will house the fabrication program. that snakes from the ground level to the top level of the building. This ramp creates a physical connection among all of the spaces in the building and also offers viewing points from above and below to allow observation of the artists and fabricators. The ramp also encourages "makers" to observe and interact with one another as they walk up and down the shop floors. The result is a ramp that scissors upward to allow for each fabrication studio’s spatial requirements and also allows for maximum artist-fabrication interaction. This void becomes visible on the exterior in the form of large depressions in the roof plane. A large atrium space serves as a physical cue and main entry for the public and is visible from the busy avenue to which it is adjacent. Two other depressions mark connections to interior and exterior program while indicating an additional public entry and exit that connects to retail space, light industrial studios and open outdoor fabrication space.
EXISTING PUBLIC USAGE
VACANT LOTS
5% SITE COVERAGE114,708SF
These vacant lots would act as a public “gallery” to display works by artists and fabricators, and would in turn generate more tra�c around the area.
FABRICATION SHOPS, WOOD WORKERS, STEEL WORKERS, CRAFTSMEN, ETC.Fabrication shops would be opened near vacant lots in order to provide artists withcollaborators to design and build public art.
LIVE/WORK UNITS FOR ARTISTS/DESIGNERSAbandoned or condemned buildings would be converted into live/work units forartists and designers that would collaborate with fabricators.

Catalysts for Space Activation interior collaboration
In our initial research of the Cincinnati’s Over-the-Rhine, we discovered that nearly 10% of the district’s surface area is made up of vacant lots compared to 5% that is designated as public open space. We see this series of vacant spaces as an opportunity to create a walking open-air museum in Over-the-Rhine. This walkable arts district would be the result of innovative collaboration between new artists/architects and fabricators. This network of transformable gallery spaces around the Over-the-Rhine district will engage the public and create an experimental platform for artists and designers interested in using newly developing digital fabrication techniques that may not available elsewhere. Our hope is that the Industrial Arts Center Building will be the starter project and catalyst for larger a urban transformation. This proposed area distribution shows a goal of 10% of the district’s surface area to be designated as open gallery space.

#3 LENNOX charter high school of technology
32
Individual advancement is the underlying programmatic strategy within the Lennox Charter High School design. After a ninth grade student spends his or her first year on the first floor of the building, the student is encouraged to choose a “concentration” within the fields of technology, science or math housed separately by each successive floor above.
This allows the student to decide topics on an individual level while also fulfilling the requirements of a high school degree. This allows the students to have freedom to move at their own pace while also crossing paths with students not necessarily their own age or social group.
Social spaces are placed on every floor near cafés to serve as eating and additional study spaces. This encourages the interactive nature of technological sciences. At the very base of the building at its center lies the auditorium which can be viewed from every classroom level.

Classes and labs are stacked above a large atrium in the levels of math, science, and technology successively. Even though the student emphasizes in topics most important to him or her, required classes may be on all three levels and allows all students regardless of age to cross paths on a constant basis. This allows a common movement toward the gain of knowledge and further opportunities.
The resulting form of the building is a cubic tower that allows the remaining site to be dedicated to playfields and pedestrian bridges that connect to major public trasportation lines adjacent to the site. The large void on the interior allows sightlines and student paths to cross.

Concept
Process Stack, Offset, Slit
First, each floor is treated as a book stacked on top of another. Second, these floors are staggered to allow for light shelving and shading on the social balconies that are produced. Subsequently, the glazing materials of each floor is split, simarly to lifted pages, at intervals horizontally to allow for daylighting control within the interior spaces.
Resulting is a condensed form that allows the class and lab spaces to be lifted from the air pollutants and sound contaminants that exist at the busy urban ground. This also allows outdoor social spaces to be directly linked with their adjacent learning spaces on each floor while also maintaining consciousness of necessary daylighting for both social and learning areas.

Various systems are in place within the cubic tower including vertical circulation, structure, hvac, glazing, and outdoor pathways. Incorporation of each of these strategies is implemented in tandem with the social strategies that remain a priority in the process of the school’s configuration.
Every corner of the building is meant to allow for social interaction and, therefore, lingering is encouraged. The learning place should be one of comfort and confidence to reassure students that social activity is welcome. The free social interaction among students is important for growth and team working. Most importantly, café spaces with seating are located on each floor and doubly serve as study spaces.

Existing Relationships physical connections
Already in the master plan for the college of engineer-ing, the prosthetic research facility for the develop-ment of advanced prosthetics will rely heavily on the communication among medical and non-medical relat-ed fields. Partnerships exist among most engineering and medical fields but other crucial communication lines must be formed with fields in the colleges of Arts & Sciences. The planning phase considered a direct connection between the medical center with the main campus by utilizing both the campus water-front and an existing raised pathway. The intention is to create a direct line of communication while forming a nonlinear path to the waterfront destination.
The result of this would be the created opportunity to showcase research that occurs in the facility to the public, i.e. the general student population, in order to both strengthen existing departmental relationships while also increasing exposure of the facility to stu-dents in fields that pose a potentially beneficial rela-tionship to the new field of prosthetic research.

Circulation as public spaceRamps provide the primary means of circulation throughout the center of the facility while additional ramps along the permeter at varying rises provide testing surfaces for lower limb prosthetics. Acknowl-edging that there are three planes of motion under analysis for the evaluation of prosthetic devices, vary-ing surfaces and inclines on site can provide the re-searchers with immediate feedback to revise the design and fitting of custumized pieces. Allowing this process to be visible to the public and researchers provides a visual connection and exposure to perfor-mance enhancement opportunities that prosthetic de-vices can provide, rather than for only restorative pur-poses of the past. The gradually changing floor surfac-es also provide the opportuity to provide built in seat-ing for additional social space along the public ramp.

Circulation as research spaceSince the main goal of the facility is to engage depart-ments located in the central campus, approximately half of the facility’s program is dedicated to public space. This includes the library, auditorium, cafe and general classroom space. Social space becomes the connective tissue within the research departments and also between the research and the public inter-face and is provided on the snaking ramp that hovers above the labs below the offices and classrooms. As a result, the departments of research, design/fit/testing, and fabrication are visually linked with the public inter-face through a series of ramps as well as with the classrooms and offices above. These ramps become further opportunity to provide public space through program overlap, additional testing surfaces for the devices and gained exposure of this facility to the main campus.
