Site is located underneath of Interstate-4, between W Church St and Bob Snow Ln. It is located

in the activity center district and is surrounded by high activity areas such as Church Street

business on the east side and the Amway Center on the west.

Even though its surroundings are highly active during day and night, this particular site is not cur-

rently visited and most of the time ignored by pedestrians.

Noise, Vibration and natural l ighting are main concern in the site due to the high traffic on

Interstate-4 and the location of the site.

The area where the site takes place is a forbidden sector of downtown Orlando which is part of

this edge that divides east downtown from west downtown Orlando area. The site is a potential

node that can unify the two sector and final ly find that missing piece along the popular Church St.

This architecture center needs to be this missing piece of Church St that wil l not only unify down-

town but also merge Orlando community and architecture. For this reason a search of a symbolic

piece for architecture and community started to be explored which lead the research to one

thing in common, the proportion of the human body in architecture.

P a g e | 0 6

Buildings are created by humans and for humans, therefore structures need to be accommodated

for human needs and proportional to a human scale. Throughout history the theory of the golden

ratio has been used by various architects and implied in different design buildings and al l of them

with the same purpose, fit spaces to human scale proportions. This study has not only made

buildings functional for humans but also harmonic and it is expressed in facades and floor plans.

With al l this research being made, the theory of the golden ratio made perfect sense to repre-

sent who we architects are and what we do for humans. Architects work with the sense of the

human scale, without this we do not do architecture. Architects create harmonic and proportional

spaces that improve the appearance and function of structures for humans and nothing else.

Interior materials are al l sustainable. Interior walls were inspired from AIA logo with tones of red, white, and black. Flooring materials are polished concrete and recycled carpets.

Polished Concrete System

- Restoring existing concrete floor to reduce the environmental impact that new construction or demolition would generate.- The FGS/PermaShine concrete polishing process, mechanical ly and chemically, minimizes exposure to hazardous components-and environmental pollution.- The exceptional durabil ity of your FGS/PermaShine concrete floor means no demolition or disposal issues that come with VCT or epoxy membrane floors.- FGS/PermaShine is a low-maintenance floor, with a maintenance regimen that uses no dangerous chemicals or VOCs.- Polished concrete floors are total ly fire resistant.

Curtain Wall System With Acoustic Performance

A function of the glazing and internal seals to stop air leakage (covered elsewhere). The sound attenuation capabil ity of curtain walls wil l be improved by instal l ing sound attenuating infi l l and by making construction as airtight as possible. Thicknesses of glass wil l be added in an insulated glass unit to control exterior noise.

Curtain Wall System With Acoustic Performance

Low PVC finishes such as carpets for the office areas and interior walls al l around the structure wil l help to eliminate waste by recycling materials.

Wil l help to reduce the impact of the sun in skylights and curtain wall systems and at the same time wil l let plenty of l ight enter the building.
