Building ComponentsDesign DevelopmentProject Objective

This project investigates issues related to the implementation of design: technology, the use of materials, systems integration, and the archetypal analytical strategies of force, order, and character. The course includes a review of basic construction methods, analysis of building codes, design of structural and mechanical systems, development of building materials, and integration of building components and systems. Students develop a studio project from the previous semester, focusing on a detailed design of a single component of the building and the resolution of its structural system and building envelope as a whole. In collaboration with a group students the chosen project was developed further in its design.

Landscape Investigation Sunset ParkThrough a re-consideration of current site and contextual conditions, the goal is to re-stratigize, re-envision, and design a new urban park that derives from dynamic (movement) and static (stationary) systems that create a new urban landscape join-ing the contextual flows and counter flows of the idle site. This landscape may be considered a place of passage or stasis, a place to slip in and out of or as a place to momentarily recede and re-emerge into the fabric of the city. After re-consideration of the current site and contextual conditions, the goal was to place a building in the landscape that reaffirms the contextual idea of the park. The building is then to compliment the park by either embedding itself or simply arrange itself in a contribu-tive manner.

The project explores programming as a means of generating organization models and conceptual narratives that shift basic morphologies into new spatial realms. Pri-mary to this study is an investigation into the gradient of space between architectural form and cultural action. Cultural action should be understood as the flows of people and the distribution of functional uses. In exploring the role of programming in archi-tecture, the studio proposes formal organizations and their corresponding material form for the Los Angeles Ballet School in Hollywood, California.

VIEWING(MORE PUBLIC)

EDUCATIONAL(MORE PRIVATE)

Viewing vs Educational. The program is initially organized in two u-shaped interlocking volumes. The volumes are designated as viewing areas and educational areas. The viewing areas deal with the performance elements of the building, which are the more public spaces; and the educational areas deal with the school elements of the building, which are more private areas. (top right)

Floor Plans. The program in the floor plans is meant to seperate the more public areas from the more private.

The project locates the idea of architecture at the intersection of various systems of information: from technical to cultural, from visual to tactile. The project examines the impact of structure and material systems on site and building form, and the capacity to use transformation as a methodological tool to guide a rigorous approach to decision making.The project proposes the design of new enlarged infrastructural node for high speed rail at Union Station in Chicago. Motivated by the rich structural and tectonic history of the train station, the proposal explores the relationships between structural morphology, urban movement, environmental forces, and other performative criteria.The focus is that of structural systems, performative envelopes, program and flow analysis, and the development of spatial conditions that create compelling public experience.

The Emerging Art Foundation San Francisco is a center for contemporary art that offers young artists a chance to debut, and incorporate their work into its collection. At once a creative space for artists and a place where art and the general public can meet, the Emerging Art Foundation San Francisco, is dedicated to promoting and raising public awareness of contemporary art. As a reflection of our times, the Emerging Art Foundation embraces all creative fields and genres of contemporary art, ranging from design to photography, from painting to video art and from fashion to performance art. This testifies to the Emerging Art Foundations commitment and skill, to its blend of rigor and eclecticism which opens up contemporary art and ren-ders it more accessible.

This is accomplished through the development of a design from conceptions to large-scale detail with an emphasis on assimilation of building systems. The design shows comprehensive building program and site through the development of programmed spaces, structural systems, building envelope and design methodology. The method-ology being the concept of revealing. In other words, delamination of the exterior to reaveal the interior as a signal to the importance of the substance on the interior.

Diagram. Site information was extracted and interpreted as vectors, which were deployed as a tool to shape the architecture.

The project looks at the effect of line on form. In this case, the lines utilized are both physical, as in the train tracks, and suggestive, as in the suggestive lines found in the site as information. The intention is to take into consideration both physical and sug-gestive lines, to create a more prevalent relationship between the train station and the tracks themselves.Taking into consideration the traditional lack of relationship between train station and the train, vectoral information is deployed as a way to shape and organize a station with the intention of creating a relationship. In this specific case, an alternativedesign to the Berlin Central Station, located near the civic center in Tiergarten.In this case, specifically, lines where extracted from various conditions in the site as vectoral information. Given existing conditions in the site are readily available as a source of information, given information from the site conditions were extracted and utilized as a tool to create form. As for the correlation between line and form, in a more physical sense, the tracks have a morevisual impact.
