Knapp’s Office Center Building
Introduction
Introduction
The Knapp’s Office Center Building is located in downtown Lansing, two blocks from the capital building. The Knapp’s building is on the corner of South Washington Avenue and Washtenaw Street.
The J.W. Knapps building was designed by Orlie Munson of the Bowd-Munson Company. The building was constructed by the Christman Company in 1937 and completed in 1939. The building is currently owned by the Eyde Development Company.

Introduction
The building is five stories with a mezzanine and a basement, totaling 190,000-square-feet. The architecture of the building is done in art deco streamline modern. When the building first opened it was J.W. Knapp Department Store. The store closed in 1970 and later opened again as Knapp’s Office Center, and closed again in 2001.
Today the building is vacant and can house several occupants which allows for different concepts. The building is also listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Site Analysis
Site AnalysisAdjacent Environment
The J.W. Knapp’s building is in the business district of Lansing, MI. There are many different businesses located in the surrounding area of the Knapp’s building. The Thomas Cooley Law School is within blocks of the building, along with the downtown campus of Lansing Community College. Some of the businesses surrounding the building include restaurants, cafes, bars, offices, and stores.

Site AnalysisTraffic
With the building on the corner of South Washington Avenue and Washtenaw Street, there are varying traffic amounts depending on the time of day. The peak times for traffic are morning and evening commuting times along with lunch hours. During the non-peak hours the auto traffic is moderate. There are CATA bus stops within walking distance to the building on both westbound Washtenaw Street and southbound Washington Avenue. The Knapp’s build is also accessible from I-496, and is close to the Capital City Airport.
PedestriansThe streets had sidewalks on both sides, which had moderate pedestrian traffic when I visited due to the end of the lunch hour. The sidewalks connect the educational facilities, the offices, retail stores, and the eateries. The area attracts college students, shoppers, workers, and visitors. There are also small sitting areas near the intersecting corners for resting.

Site AnalysisLandscape and Signage
There are concrete planters with mature trees up and down South Washington Avenue. The signage for the building is integrated with the exterior finishes. The main entrance has the signage above the entrance on the corner of S Washington Ave and Washtenaw Street. The other entrances are covers that all contain signage.

Site Analysis
ExteriorThe J.W. Knapp’s building stands out in the area that it is in due to the art deco aesthetic. The building exterior has a blue and yellow color scheme, glass block windows on the upper floors, and large display windows on the main floor. Maintenance is needed to repair loose tiles on the underside of the overhang, cracked windows, and leaking overhangs.

Site AnalysisInterior
The Knapp’s building provides a basement, main floor with high ceilings and an open floor plan with columns, a mezzanine, and floors 2-5 are blocked out for offices. The building is ADA accessible with ramps by the entrances and exits and elevators. The materials within the building are outdated since the building has not been used since 2001. There seems to have been no maintenance with the vacancy over the past years. With that there potentially is the growth of mold due to water damage. The main floor has large columns that create a disruption in the flow of the space, even though they are needed for the structural support. There are different flooring types in the building that include tile, carpet, and the concrete subfloor. The walls were in poor condition, some with wallpaper that was peeling or rippling due to water damage. The same damage may have affected the drywall throughout which would need to be replaced. The heating and air conditioning system was once throughout the entire building as one system, but when it was opened up as divided spaces the system was divided as well.

Site Analysis – First Floor
Knapp’s building Main Level Floor Plan .
Egress and CirculationThere are six entrances into the building and 2 exit stairwells, highlighted in teal on the plan. There are elevators in the middle of the building that go to all floors, highlighted in orange on the floor plan. The escalators in the main open space go up to the second floor, highlighted in blue on the floor plan.
11
Site Analysis – First Floor
Interior: First FloorThe main level is about 24,000 square feet. The front portion of the area is an open layout with an opening to the second floor, and the mezzanine overlooks the main level front area. The layout includes columns in a grid pattern and floor electrical outlets that are above the finish floor. There are many means of egress from the upper floors. They include the escalators, stairs and elevators. The ceiling that is for both the main and mezzanine floors seem to have a popcorn ceiling. The ceiling that is under the mezzanine floor is a drop ceiling tile. The lighting includes large fluorescent lights, but I could not tell how much light they produce for the space since there was a lot of day lighting from the windows. The elevators are located between the front open area and the back area. The back area of the main level consists of smaller spaces, an open common area, and separate men’s and women’s restrooms.

Site Analysis – First Floor
Interior: First Floor Cont.There is a room on the main level that holds the electrical equipment, plumbing, and the HVAC unit. The HVAC unit is most likely only used for the main and mezzanine level since the other levels of the building have their own units. The main front entry and the side entry have large full length windows that let in large quantities of lighting. The day lighting through the storefront windows come in through the north and east sides of the building. These windows not only let in daylight but also act as display areas that are easily viewed by pedestrians.

Site Analysis – First Floor
Interior: First Floor Cont.The flooring on the main level has tile at the elevator area and carpeting in the rest. There are electrical outlets fixed on the floor and are raised. There is also an escalator in the middle of the open front area. The baseboards and carpeting and tile are outdated and need to be replaced, especially since they probably have mold damage.

Site Analysis – Mezzanine
Knapp’s building Mezzanine Floor Plan .
Egress and CirculationThere are two exit stairwells that lead right to an exit, highlighted in teal on the floor plan. There are two other stairs on the floor that go down to the first floor and are near an exit, highlighted in orange on the floor plan. The escalators go through the middle of the mezzanine floor where it is open to the first floor, highlighted in blue on the floor plan.
15
Site Analysis – Mezzanine
Interior: MezzanineThe mezzanine is about 20,000 square feet. It overlooks the open main level. There are many stairways that can access this level, as well as the elevator. There is a circular flow to the mezzanine since it goes around the perimeter of the open area of the main floor. The north and east sides have a railing that has a textured plastic that is translucent. This allows for the day lighting to come through from the glass block windows on the bottom half of the outer walls. The ceiling appears to have a popcorn finish and some of the space has ceiling tiles that have molded due to water damage.

Site Analysis – Mezzanine Interior: Mezzanine Cont.
The HVAC unit used is most like the same used for the main level since the two spaces are intertwined. The north and east side of the building on this level contain a continuous line of glass block windows. This allows for natural daylight to come into the space, and it diffuses through the plastic barrier on the railing. The glass block windows are on the lower portion of the walls, which allow for a sense of intimacy and privacy since they also do not allow the users a view to the outside. The plastic barrier on the railing is in poor condition as well. There are fluorescent lights around the mezzanine floor area, but some are falling apart and need to be replaced. The flooring is the same carpet in the main floor.

Climate Analysis
Climate Analysis
Lansing, MI has a mild climate where there are 4 distinct seasons. Precipitation is fairly distributed throughout the year, averaging 2.63 inches annually. The average wind speeds are consistent with those throughout the country. The possible sunshine percentage is the least during November and December. The amount of daylight and sunshine is important in order to determine day lighting simulation within a space.

Percentage of Possible Sunshine chart.
19
Climate Application
Since Lansing deals with all of the seasons, everything has to be taken into consideration. The walls will need to be protected for the winter conditions as well as the hot summer days. Additional insulation can help with controlling the temperature within the building. To help maintain this, the display windows on the main floor would nee to be replaced with double pane insulated glass. Walk off mats would also be used at all entrances to prevent tracking in any precipitation into the space. The basement could act as a shelter in case of sever weather conditions or natural disasters.

Article Findings and Applications
Literature Analysis
Article Title: Designing a Retail Store Environment for the Mature Market: A European Perspective
Authors: Ann Petermans, M.S. and Koenraad Van Cleempoel, Ph.D., PHL University College, Belgium
Source: Journal of Interior Design
Date: January 2010; Volume 35 Issue 2 Pages 21-36
Article One22
Major Issues:
The main issue of this article is including older consumers in the demographic of major retail designs. This is discussed with the physical and social needs that differ to younger users. Many retail places only consider designing for the majority of the user demographic. In today’s design world, many people are being told to think about all users and their different needs. This is why we as designers are thinking more about universal design. This is so that all demographics are reached through the design. The subjects within this article are the “silver shoppers”, which is the elderly population of users and consumers in Europe. The elderly population right now is growing more than ever, with the baby boomers still in full swing. With this knowledge, design must take this user population into account. This does make opportunities and challenges not only for designers but for marketers, retailers, and consumer researchers. Another challenge is different cultures from around the world. One country’s older consumers might react differently to one thing, where in another country the same demographic responds positively. This all has to do with the culture aspect in which surrounds the consumers and users.
Article One23
Article OneMajor Findings:
The easiest way to segment consumers is by chronological age. Age is probably the least effective variable since it does not correlate with behavior. The behavior of older consumers is sensitive to their needs and lifestyles that are influenced by events and circumstances that one experiences throughout a lifetime. One can also segment by psychographic segmentation which is dividing the market based on the user’s lifestyle, personality, or values. Other segmenting variable include gender, income, geography, education, health, dependence, and social-professional activity.
Retail design is emerging and is having the understanding of what will work within the retail environment. As discussed in the article tangible retail design is the use of fixed, material cues in the design of the store, which affects the consumers’ perception and experience while in the store. Intangible retail design is the use of immaterial cues that can influence the consumers’ opinion and evaluation of the store. Examples of tangible design elements would include the store frontage, carpeting, and fixtures within the store. Examples of intangible design elements would include music, smells, colors and crowding. There is also a demand for the understanding how it will perform functionally and commercially. Lighting is a prime example of this, with using general lighting or using spotlighting for certain aspects needed within the design.
24
Article One
Major Findings Continued:
The Case studies discussed within the article talk about two supermarket stores that were designed in Austria and Germany. The reason that supermarkets were chosen as the study topics is due to the fact that food shopping represents and important household expenditure. The success of the study was measured by looking at the store after redesigning it to meet the needs of the mature market’s functional and social needs and wants. They also discuss how “universal design” features help the older consumers function optimally and comfortably in the environment.
Case study 1 was a supermarket in Austria. The name of the market included the title “age 50+” so that users knew what to expect. The supermarket was designed to meet the needs and wants of the mature market. The store was such a success that the chain for the supermarket followed and redesigned their supermarkets and renamed them so that it was not just for an older market consumer. Case study 2 was a supermarket company in Germany that opened its first senior supermarket in Berlin. This supermarket adapted the design for needs and wants for older customers.
25
Article One
Major Findings Continued:
Both studies pay attention to the aspect of transportation to and from the store. They also take into account parking, where spaces are wider and close to the store. The design of the supermarkets focused on creating a good overview and obvious in-store orientation. They also used different signage inside the store, they identified the different product groups and had illustrations, they also had lower shelf heights, and they had wider aisles to accommodate their target market. The stores also had non-skid floors and legible price and product information.
The studies indicate that the growing older population offers an opportunity for marketers, retailers, designers, and consumer researchers alike. Both chains have illustrated the proper and specifically design retail environment that pays attention implementing an appropriate social approach that can enhance the shopping experience for the older market. “The presence of wider aisles, non-skid floors, brighter lighting, lower shelf heights. And clearly displayed and readable product labels and price tags are concrete illustrations of functional aspects which were specifically addressed to meet the needs of mature users in both case studies.” Another thing to consider is that even though the functional and social needs and wants can be met within the design, this does not mean that other things can be ignored. For example, the wants and needs of the elderly customers were met but the choice and quality of food available that is in the store cannot be neglected, it still has importance.
26
Article One
Future Applications:
This article is good to keep in mind to design for the elderly, that we might not think of all the time. This will help in deciding on flooring and lighting for the different spaces. The flooring should be something that is aesthetically pleasing but non-slip so that no one will potentially slip and fall. The lighting needs to be specific for the individual spaces but still bright enough for all users to read signage and to find their way around the spaces. Another thing that I took from this article is that even though we might not have aisles in our facility, there needs to be enough room to accommodate the older market for walking purposes. One last thing that I would consider is to not have high shelving in the retail space so that it helps all users to be able to not only see all items easier but also to reach them easier.

Article Two
Article Title: Restaurant Design: Sometimes Great Food and Service Just Aren’t Enough
Author: Shawn Alexander, AIA
Source: Restaurant Report
Date: 2010
28
Article Two
Major Issues:
One of the major issues within this article is that restaurants are about the food and the experience. So through design the restaurant should be a place where a whole sensory impression happens with the atmosphere and the food. With this the article means that the food itself is a sensory experience and the design of the space should add into the experience too. This article helps break down design for a restaurant space. It talks about what should be considered for the design.
29
Article TwoMajor Findings:
To create a space that is appealing to the customers, one must define the criteria of the space. This can be done by talking to the client and asking questions that will help figure out what the target atmosphere and space should be like. Some things that should be considered is the target demographic, the ambiance desired, the atmosphere desired and what price point the restaurant should be. Another thing to consider in the design that is discussed in the article is the functionality of the space. This includes the traffic patterns for the employees and the customers, as well as everything being fully equipped and easy to access. Visual cues help tie together the atmosphere and space. This can be done through the use of materials, textures, colors, seating, and tabletop accessories. By doing this it will enhance the guest experience and it will help the space be in harmony. The design also needs to define space, whether it is creating intimate spaces from large ones or trying to enhance smaller spaces. Color is another big piece of the space that can influence the ambience of the space, the attitude of the space and its users, and it can be used as a backdrop for the food. Acoustics is something that can make or break a dining experience. Materials and textures can be used to create a pleasurable environment. Using draperies, carpet, as well as acoustical and ceiling tiles can help eliminate any unwanted sounds in the restaurant environment. Lighting is another thing that helps define the space and different lighting techniques will make different ambiances. For example brightly lit spaces are high in energy where low lighting can create a cozy feeling space. The last thing to think about is ceiling height. Ceilings should act as a background that enhances the design and ties all aspects together.
30
Article Two
Future Applications:
This article will help designing the café space since I now have a better understanding how to create certain ambiances through color, lighting, acoustical solutions, and by defining spaces. To create a cozy environment for the café I would try to do intimate seating with low lighting and many soft surfaces. Using soft surfaces will help keep the noise level down within the space. Warmer colors that are muted will help unify the space and help set the ambiance of the environment of the space.

Knapp’s World of Fitness
Proposed Facility
Facility Justification
Based on the site visit and the analysis done after, a multi purpose design incorporating fitness, retail and dining will enhance the surrounding Lansing community. The surrounding area includes a variety of restaurants and businesses, but lacks in a variety of retail stores. The proposed Knapp’s World of Fitness provides a retail and workout environment that promotes the well being and better health for the Lansing community. The restaurant provides a different type of dining experience from what is in the vicinity already. The dining will be a sit down environment where most of the current eateries are more for take out purposes.

Mega Concept
The design of Knapp’s World of Fitness will mimic the atmosphere of Times Square. Times Square in New York City is an active environment full of noise, energy and lights. It has a very visual and fast pace atmosphere. There is a similar feeling in sports where plays are actively changing and excitement is in the air. Sports bars are also very active and visual with a variety of broadcasting materials for games. The design of the first and mezzanine floors will stimulate the users with the use of visual and auditory aids as well as conducive lighting for the different spaces within the facility.

Proposed First Floor
First Floor Space Layout 65
The retail sporting goods store is located at the front of the building near the street entrances to make it easy to get to and easy for the flow. The storage and manager office areas are located near the back of the retail space since they are to be just for employees. The back part of the building is for community use for fitness classes. There are two workout studio rooms with a storage room in the back. Near the workout studios is a restroom, changing and locker area for the workout studios on both the first and mezzanine floors. At the side entrance near the workout studios is an area for community news and events as well as community fitness class information. There is also a security office that is located in the middle of the floor layout so that it is easily accessible for all areas.

Sporting Goods Store Inspiration70
These images show different displays that can be used in the retail area. They also show how columns and thee ceiling can be incorporated into the design to help bring the space together.
Sporting Goods Store View71
The color scheme for the sporting goods store on the first floor of Knapps World of Fitness consists of burnt oranges and yellows. These were selected to add warmth to the large space. Displays that can be moved easily will be used along with hanging cylindrical banners to promote an active life. The lighting fixtures will make the store feel less like a retail store and will help connect the main floor to the mezzanine floor.

Proposed Mezzanine
Mezzanine Space Layout74
The side entrance provides elevator and stair access to the mezzanine floor. Once on the mezzanine floor there are two areas, a workout studio side and a sports bar and grill side. There are three workout studios that are larger than those on the first floor so that larger fitness classes can be held. Restrooms are located between the workout studio side and the sports bar and grill restaurant side. This is so that it is easily accessible for all users on the floor. The sports bar and grill restaurant contains the kitchen in the middle of the floor but in the back of the dining area. There is a separate entrance for employees through the kitchen as well. There are stairs that are on the south side of the building that go from the first floor to the mezzanine, these stairs lead the users to the waiting and the host stand in the restaurant. Next to the waiting and host stand is the bar area. Dining tables are around the rest of the perimeter of the mezzanine floor that overlooks the retail space below. There are also service stations for the servers located near the kitchen and the bar.
