Street Level

The Midtown Charter School is a project de-signed for the annual John C. Portman Prize Competi-tion. The program assigned to all entrants is a Charter School for the Fine Arts residing on North Avenue be-tween Peachtree Street and Juniper Street. The chal-lenge for the program is creating a gallery the public can access throughout the day while keeping the school portion of the building private. The site is located in the heart of midtown At-lanta, surrounded by large buildings to the north, west and south. The school adapts to the urban condition by hugging the corner of Peachtree and North Avenue and stretches seven stories high. The building is designed to display as much of the school to the public as possible, showcasing student work, students working and the physical structure of the building. The site is broken up into three distinct parts: The central displayed spaces consisting of the gallery, cafeteria, gymnasium, library and music room; the classroom bar which includes 16 classrooms and two studios; and the front yard consisting of sculpture gardens and an outdoor atrium space. The public is brought into a large, open aired atrium where they have access to the gallery and a small cafe. The public enters into the school, but never actually accesses the private areas of the school. The gallery is the heart of the school. It is what joins the public and private realms. The gallery is conceived as a glass box, unearthed by the large masses above. It is located at the public level of the building and is situated within a large garden.

Mutation involves the transferring of DNA through generations while retaining remnants of the past

The Center for Chemical Evolution is an organization that focuses research efforts on understanding the theories of evolution through chemical processes. The idea of a “center” applys to different insti-tutions sharing knowledge with one another. The project has turned into a physical center that houses labs for scientists as well as studios for artists. The integration of the two fields encourages new ways of looking at and representing the science of chemical evolution. The challenge for this project is to take a 42 acre site and decide how to create a place for scientists and artists to interact with each other as well as develop our own program based on our understand-ing of lab and studio design.

The site strategy revolves around adapting to the buildings that are already present on the site, the cottag-es, as well as building up a large green space. The cottages are at different elevations and are connected through a series of underground tunnels. The proposed design preserves the floor plates in the landscape as they are and physically connects them into one long Center. Each cottage has a sectional quality revolving around scientists and artists being physically separated, but visually can observe the others’ work. The spaces connecting the cottages are meant to encourage the sharing of ideas and visual representation in the fields of art and science.

ADAPTIVE AND ENFORCIVE SKIN

SCALE - 1:200

ADAPTING TO COTTAGES

ENFORCING THE CONNECTORS

The facade of the building serves as an artis-tic piece that relates to the artists and the scientists. Proteins are the foundation for chemical evolution and are where the transferring of RNA and DNA oc-cur. Within the proteins are strands of polypeptides formed by a unique series of peptide monomers. The polypeptide structure is based on interactions with the environment. This interaction affects the con-struction of the proteins. The skin of the building is developed through a series of polypeptide strands. The polypeptides change their form based on program and site as well as natural lighting conditions. The overall construc-tion of the polypeptide formation creates the protein, or skin, of the building.

The polypeptide skin wraps the cottages adapting to their form, but then it cuts into the connect-ing zones to create a new form for the building at these zones. On the south facade of the building, the openings on the polyeptide skin are relatively smaller than those on the north side to help filter direct sunlight. The sizes of the balls and tubes fluctuate depending on the lighting needs. The density of the polypeptide chains also change with the desired lighting conditions.

The VerdeArtBar is designed with the intent of combining urban farming techniques with a place of recreation and education. The project sits in the heart of downtown Atlanta right on Georgia State’s campus. The top portion of the building is a double height bar, catering to the local students. The other levels contain two cinemas and a large gallery space. The building is wrapped in a long, continuous ramp. This ramp on the exterior faces south, providing excellent light conditions to grow produce. The ramp be-comes a journey through an urban farm as one ascends to the other levels. The theme of an urban farm within a building is carried through at the bar’s exterior where barley and hops are grown on the roof and used within the small brewery in the building. The rest of the produce grown on the ramp, as well as a hydroponic sun-screen on the gallery level, are sold at a market place on the ground level. Placing the educational portions of the program on the bottom makes it easy for the public to enter and learn about urban farming techniques. Placing the bar at the top allows for more physi-cal learning opportunities for the public as they ascend to the top.

HORIZONTAL HYDROPONICS

The same system of rules were put into place on the Eastern Facade of the Verde Art Bar, which was originally designed as a glass square section spanning two levels vertically. Steps 1 and 2 of the gram-mar begin to break down the square glass facade areas closer to human scale.

For step 3 of the grammar, three function elements were assigned based on areas and geometric proportions. Growing spaces were placed into areas with two or three perfect squares while operable windows were placed on 3:2 rectangles. A hydroponic system was integrated into the horizontal elements of the facade.

4th Floor

The Mixed-Use Housing Project off of Spring Street was an attempt to capture “motion” into a mixed-use unit. The lower level contains a coffee shop while the up-per four levels are devoted to either students or academic professors. The building sits within a 25’ x 100’ lot so it is a long skinny build-ing. The upper levels are separated from the public and connect to one another with a circulating ramp that wraps the building with the intent of bringing residents closer together.

The work presented is part of a class on working with Revit. One assignment was based on creating an interior rendering while developing a custom wall material using Revit. Thefinalassignmentwastocreateagalleryextensionoffofa rectilinear building. In order to challenge the software, I developed an extension based on curves and odd angles. Theformwasdevelopedfirstthroughanextrudedseriesof cross-sections. Then a skin was developed based on two different types of panels, both incorporating glazing for passive light condi-tions inside the gallery spaces. Then the development of the interior came about. It was challenging to develop an interior based on an odd form, but it creates a fun circulation spaced and interesting way to engage the artworks in the gallery.

The Aquatic Center is designed as a place of forced perspectives, linear spacial relations, contrasting materials and visually pleasing lighting conditions. Through a series of light studies involving stacked glass, the pool space was developed to bring in a large amount of shimmering light overhead and reflect off of the pool’s surface. The structure’s angled interior wall system guides views through interior and exterior spaces.

The Textile Manufacturing Plant takes on the challenge of building into a steep site. The building is designed as a place of exterior paths and green spaces connecting major program elements. Two water transportation systems exist to deal with runoff water on the site. One moves rain water down the pathways’ awnings and into the lounge space. The other moves water under the paths and into a storage tank.

The projects developed in the Design Computing course were meant to understand the methods of designing through three-dimensional means. Solid Modeling is about taking simple geometries and creating a language of addition, subtraction and rotation construct a visually appealing form. Parametric Modeling deals with creating a system of transformations and applying it to a simple layout, creating an altered form. Surface Modeling focuses on creating different sections and lofting a surface across those sections. Scripting uses specific software to take one object and alters it with simple adjustments in the script.
