Introduction The broad curricular goals established by the Faculty of the School of Architecture and described for this course in the Georgia Tech Catalog are as follows: Intermediate studies in architectural design emphasizing integrative design strategies that engage the programmatic, contextual, and constructed dimensions of architecture and its representations.

Within this general framework, the specific thematic emphasis of this semesters inquiry and instruction is upon the cultural work of architecture. This focus is meant to reinforce the significance of all those measurable performance expectations that define the architects professional responsibility but which are nonetheless only the means, not the ends, to realizing the disciplines ultimate meaning and ethical purpose. Those aspects of the built world that can be explained and quantified by application of principles of science (stability of structures, properties of materials, flows of energy and environment) and principles of economics (private and public interests, institutional logics, flows of labor and capital) are mere props for achieving the field of architectures higher cultural aim: to provide the quotidian and ceremonial stages for people and their socially situated practices. Culture in the sense intended here ascribes value to an entire way of life and the process by which meaning is produced, not only to the exclusive taste preferences of culture consumers. Appreciation of culture requires a heightened attention to contextssocial, political, historical, materialand to the web of meaningful relationships they weave and construct. The cultural work of architecture is ultimately poetic, to imagine those kinds of shelters (sometimes in the foreground, most times as backgrounds for our lives) which when well-realized can help us bind together memory and passion and hope. Course Organization and Procedure The semesters work will be centered in historic Putnam County, Georgia and will focus through two related projects on issues of cultural heritage, cultural tourism, and cultural production with an emphasis upon the role that architects can and must play in conserving, interpreting, and renewing our shared cultural resources and traditions. Project One, of four weeks duration, will envision a contemporary intervention adjacent to a 2000-year old Native American archaeological site, one of several of the areas rock effigies, evidence of the regions deeply grounded material culture of making and representing for both utilitarian and symbolic purposes. Emphasis here will be placed on two sets of reflexive relationships: between program and site,

Introduction and Course Organization

During Spring Semester 2015, eighteen graduate students in the Georgia Tech School of Architecture led by three faculty members, all experienced architects, worked with representatives of the Briar Patch Arts Council (BPAC) to undertake design studies and proposals for The Artisans Village (TAV) in downtown Eatonton, Georgia. The project was organized in phases in order to properly calibrate the challenges of the project requirements to the experience of the beginning-level student architects. The first phase of the project focused on the accom-modation of BPACs space requirements within the existing shells of the renovated historic masonry warehouse buildings. A second phase of the project considered a hypothetical scenario in which artists housing and an open-air marketplace were proposed as additions to the artisan studios, workshops, retail shop, and galleries. Students considered the entire site as an extended part of the urban fabric and studied how best to knit the renovated warehouse buildings, new artists housing, plazas, and marketplace into the overall experience of downtown Eatonton.

The materials presented in this publication document the process and parameters guiding this work, the pho-tographic reconnaissance and measured drawings that the students completed of the downtown district, and the individual proposals that students advanced based upon their particular discoveries and insights about the potential of the project. While none of these proposals presents a definitive next step for the Eatonton community, they do demonstrate optimism about the transformative potential of the project, a sensitive and well-considered approach to the rehabilitation and adaptive reuse of historic structures. In addition, they pres-ent a wealth of ideas about joining the old and the new and bringing new life, creative production, and econom-ic vitality to Eatontons downtown.

4each informing and being informed by the other; and the reciprocity between representation and construction as a force propelling design. (20% of course grade) Project Two, of about eleven weeks duration, will address the rich possibilities of a project being proposed in downtown Eatonton, the Putnam County seat, for an artists village. Eatonton lies at the intersection of two cultural axes: a string of charming small towns founded in the Federal era running north-south from Athens to Milledgeville, the first state capital; and the Historic Piedmont Scenic Byway running east-west which pre-dates European settlement. This project is seen by local leaders as an opportunity to stimulate economic development by extending the local culture of craft and making into the future and highlighting the regions literary heritage that includes Joel Chandler Harris, Flannery OConnor, and Alice Walker. This project will encompass scales of urban, landscape, and architectural design; it will require adaptive reuse of existing structures of historical value and character while inserting new elements to accommodate a range of uses including artists studios, apartments, workshops, caf, and galleries. A phase of research, gathering, and analysis of contextual and programmatic parameters will inform an iterative design process, visions and revisions using appropriate 2D and 3D representational, modeling, and rendering techniques extending from conceptual through schematic and detail development phases to public presentation. (80% of course grade) Relevant readings, lectures, workshops, and site visits will introduce and supplement each project phase. Each project assignment will include specific scheduling milestones and project requirements. Regular progress toward these objectives will be advanced through individual desk critiques, informal pin-ups, and formal final presentations. Course Learning Objectives / Assessment By the conclusion of this course students should be able to demonstrate competence and skill in the schematic design and design development of an architectural project of moderate scale and complexity showing evidence of increasing ability: through the identification and analysis of project givens; by application of principles extracted from relevant project analogs, precedents, and processes; by testing and evaluation of alternative design strategies and approaches; by creative synthesis of lessons learned into design proposals that integrate contextual,

programmatic, and constructional responses to satisfy project requirements; and by deploying appropriate representational modes and media in each of these aspects in order to

advance the analysis and synthesis of design parameters and to communicate conceptual, technical, and expressive intents.

Student accomplishment will be assessed in light of these criteria, and written feedback will be provided at intermediate phases during the semester (at the end of Project One and prior to mid-term for Project Two) and at the course conclusion. Course Expectations In order to ensure a serious and respectful climate which allows creative intellectual freedom to flourish, students and faculty must be guided as a community of mutual interest by the regulations enumerated in the of Georgia Tech Catalog 2014-2015:

Regulations: http://www.catalog.gatech.edu/rules/1.php Expectations: http://www.catalog.gatech.edu/rules/22.php] Academic Integrity All participants in the course are expected to abide by the terms of the Georgia Tech Honor Code. Within the studio setting, open exchange of ideas, criticisms, and techniques is encouraged and is understood to be part of the cultural milieu of architectural education and practice. Architectural precedents which are significant influences or inspirations for student work should be documented as part of final presentations. When collaborative work is part of the studio pedagogy, students will have the opportunity to offer feedback on their team members participation as one part of the evaluative process. Work on individually assigned projects and competitions submitted for a grade should be solely the work of their authors unless prior authorization has been granted. Class Attendance Policy / Retention of Work Georgia Techs general expectations with regard to class attendance are described here: http://www.catalog.gatech.edu/rules/4b.php. Successful outcomes within studio-based instruction are particularly dependent upon regular and engaged participation. Likewise, the physical work produced within the professional program serves as a crucial form of evidence substantiating the programs continued accreditation status. For these reasons, the Faculty of the College of Architecture has established this additional catalog stipulation: All work produced in the College of Architecture as part of a degree program becomes the property of the College; it may be retained or returned at the discretion of the faculty. The faculty also reserves the right to refuse for credit any project executed outside the precincts of the College or otherwise produced without proper coordination with the faculty. http://catalog.gatech.edu/colleges/coa/index.php Accordingly, students are expected to attend all scheduled studio/laboratory sessions. Absences for personal reasons in excess of three will result in letter-grade deductions for the course. Excused absences are granted for those participating in approved Institute activities. Special Needs Any student who feels that he/she may need an accommodation for any sort of disability, please make an appointment to see your instructor during office hours. Alternatively, questions relating to students with disabilities may be referred to the Office of the Dean of Students (ADAPTS Office), 221 Smithgall Student Services Building, 404-894-2564, 404-894-1664 (TDD)

Project Two: The Artisans Village in Eatonton, Georgia Phase Two Requirements

Imagine ten years henceand the initial phase of The Artisans Village has been a stunning success. The ex-ample of artists and craftspeople working within the sensitively adapted and renewed warehouse structures has led to a renaissance in downtown Eatonton stimu-lating commercial activity, urban infill and building ren-ovations, and a growing regional reputation as the nex-us of a vibrant cultural scene. As a further catalyst to this momentum, the Briar Patch Arts Council envisions the addition of a component of housing for artists di-rectly adjacent to TAV in order to further concentrate the energy and vibrancy of this unique marketplace of artistic production and creative exchange. Working within the boundary footprints of the historic site configuration revealed in the 1921 Sanborn Map, the BPAC imagines a contemporary structure, at once counterpoint and complement in both material and ex-pression to the masonry and timber palate of the build-ings immediately adjacent. The interplay and intermin-gling of the new within the old at both building and ur-ban scales, it is felt, will galvanize the community in its respect for its historic resources while confirming its commitment to a vital and living future for the town. The BPAC asks for creative consideration of how best to organize a series of individual studio apartments each accommodating one or two adults living adjacent to their studios in a manner reminiscent of craftspeople of the past living above/below/beside their shops. De-signers are encouraged to consider what complement of shared amenities would enhance a sense of commu-nity and creativity. Solar orientation and the potential for integration of passive and active solar solutions should be a prime concern. In addition, consideration should be given to alternative provisions downtown for the newly displaced amphitheater.

Project Two: The Artisans Village in Eatonton, Georgia Phase One Requirements In pursuit of its ambitious goals aimed at economic revitalization in Eatonton and Putnam County, the Briar Patch Arts Council has initiated feasibility studies for the phased development of The Artisans Village (TAV) in downtown Eatonton. As described in the accompanying materials, the vision for the initiative is to provide opportunities that attract, encourage and support artistic excellence while celebrating Putnam Countys history, diversity, and freedom of expression. Within the first phase of schematic design, key facilities are to be accommodated within the existing footprints and shells of two renovated warehouse buildings. Once established, these core facilities will provide the nexus for future growth to be considered subsequently in a second phase of developmental study. For purposes of focusing attention upon what is possible within given constraints, the following guidelines for the Phase One studies apply. Each proposal should:

Suggest urban design strategies for creating synergies in downtown Eatonton by considering connections between and among The Artisans Village, the Courthouse Square, and the future home of the Georgia Writers Museum through designed interactions of public and private realms.

Treat the entire Phase One parcel (shaded in green in the attached site plan) as part of this extended urban design strategy, giving special attention to inside and outside relationships, the design of in-between spaces, and the creation of an integrated building and site experience including possible reconsideration of current patterns of vehicular/service access and parking.

Organize the necessary program functions in ways that create purposeful affinities and juxtapositions between and among constrasting

and associated uses, for example dirty and clean, open and closed, wet and dry, hot and cold, etc.

Explore the introduction of natural light into the structures through judicious interventions and incisions in the building fabric walls and roofs, doors and windows.

Develop design strategies for the sensitive adaptive reuse of (and intervention into) the existing warehouse buildings that both honor their historical, material character and transform them for their new purposes. Explore the possibilities of reconceiving of the project site as a cultural palimpsest in which old and new are brought into an experientially rich and meaningful dialog.

7Survey of Eatonton, GA

Eatonton, Georgia is located approximately an hour and half Southeast of Atlanta, in Putnam County.Founded in 1807, the cityhas since become known as the Dairy Capital of Georgia due to its large dairy production. However, the city is most known for its literary contributions, bringing forth authors such as: Alice Walker, Flannery OConner, and Joel Chandler Harris. The city is also the home of the Rock Eagle Effigy Mound, a Native American archaeological site. The city of Eatonton is a small, but culturally rich area that should be celebrated.

The project is seen as an opportunity to stimulate the local economy by extending the culture of craft making into the future. Included in the Arti-sans Village will be studio spaces for a variety of artists, apartments, galleries,workshops, and a cafe. The project will address issues of Historical Preservation, Urban Planning, Landscape, Adaptive Reuse, and Architectural Design.

Overview of the Building and Exterior Views of the Facades

Building A is located just off of Eatontons main street, North Jefferson Avenue, on East Marion Street. The clients for the project anticipate that Building A will be a suitable location for the studios of the dirty art-ists. The artists working in these dirty studios would include: glass blowers, metal welders, and pottery and ceramic makers. These forms of art require high inten-sity forms of heat in order to create their end products, which is why it is beneficial for these artists to be work-ing in close proximity to one another.

A Revitalization of The Artisans Village|The focus of this design scheme is to provide strategies that not only illustrate + maintain the historical value of the city of Eatonton, but also create elements that contribute to the ongoing develoment of its

cultural identity. The project site is located in the heart of the city, allowing for a design with direct views to the Courthouse Square, as well as the future home of the Georgia Writers Museum. Various spatial + organizational relationships have been explored [public/private, inside/outside, building/site] with the aim of developing a holistic design which would provide opportunities that attract, encourage, and support

artistic excellence, while celebrating Putnam Countys history, diversity, and freedom of expression.

The driving idea for the design of The Artisans Village was the notion of exhibition, of everything being on display the working artists, their artifacts, and the buildings and spaces themselves. Key to the interior development of the two existing buildings was treating the artists studios as extensions of the gallery space. By restructuring the ground plane, the gallery takes advantage of a newly enhanced volume to create a theatrical eect in cross-section. The splayed walls of the studios establish an active backdrop for the gallery visually framed by and interwoven with the exposed timber structure a theme developed in the second warehouse building as well.

The form of the artists housing arose from the extension of the courtyard space between the existing buildings. The resulting V-shaped building mass encloses a small courtyard as yet another theatrical display, here connecting both covered and uncovered market spaces. Double-volume studios are oriented to that courtyard and provide a spatial buer and threshold to the two-level dwellings each with its own outward facing balcony.

The third building, the live-work component for a resident artist program, also forms itself around a courtyard that is ringed by the separated studio spaces for the artists who live in the two upper oors. This courtyard links to the continuous public space and serves as both a potential collaborative space for the artists and an interface with the visiting public. The living spaces are then removed and the artists are provided a large terrace which also links back to the studio spaces in the other building.

THE ARTISAN VILLAGEEATONTON, GACLINT CASTLES

The Artisan Village is an aspirational project intended to bring tourism to the city of Eatonton while enriching its culture. There is a public component for gallery space, a cafe, a shop,demonstration studios and outdoor public space. The Artisan Village will also serve the artist community with individual studio space and as well as on-site live-work studios. The project seeks to act as a meeting point and facilitator for engagement both within the community of artists working there and with the city around it.

STUDIO AREA

ENTRANCE COURTYARD

Specically, the project is designed around a succession of linked public spaces. The large central spacelinks the three buildings together and provides circulation through the site and can also serve as the focusfor an open air market area. Additionally a courtyard is created by cutting through the wall of one of theexisting buildings on the site, and this serves as the main entrance for the cafe, shop and gallery publicareas. It is bounded by two large glass walls that face each other and allow an interface between thesepublic services on one side and artist studios on the other.
