Urban Intervention

Perspective looking southwest toward fiction collection

21st Century LibraryCapstone Thesis - Spring, Fifth Year

Conceptually, this project evolved from the intersection of three sets of contrasting themes: physical / virtual, local / global, and old/ new. These themes highlight three main areas in which libraries as a project type can evolve. The function of a library has shifted from a community’s collective place to store printed material toward a point of access to an interconnected web of global content across varied types of media. A 21st century library must embrace the inherent simultaneity between the physical and virtual worlds of the digital age in order to create a physical space that remains relevant.

Collaborative Legacy

Exhibit DesignIndependent Research; Design Studio- Spring, Fourth Year

A grant-funded investigation into the collaborations of choreographer Merce Cunningham inspired an exhibit design selected by peers and instructors to publicly showcase the research. I translated conceptual ideas into a system of built forms, responding to input from my team and delegating tasks to finish the project on time and within the budget. The exhibit was open to the public for six weeks in the main gallery of the College of Architecture at the University of Arizona, and formed the environment for several related special events.

A grid of thin rope and sliding connectors molds the space underneath it, creating a virtual ceiling above exhibit panels and seating areas.

Sustainable Senior Living

This 77 unit, 6 story assisted living and memory care community is designed to reflect the context and history of its location in the Eastlake neighborhood of Seattle. Overlooking Lake Union, the project is inspired by the history of the 1936 gold medal-winning UW rowing team, nicknamed “The Boys in the Boat”.

This project will be the first of its kind as a high-density, urban, senior living community pursuing Living Building Challenge Petal Certification along with the energy and water reduction requirements of the City of Seattle. The project will be an example of craftsmanship, lightness, and community, merging the philosophy of the client and the imperatives of the Living Building Challenge with design inspiration from rowing and shell houses.

EASTLAKE NEIGHBORHOOD

The Eastlake neighborhood is one of the oldest in Seattle described by the Eastlake Community Council as a ‘pleasant jumble of houseboats, singles family homes, apartments, condos, and large and small businesses.’ Eastlake is home to about 4,000 residents and 4,000 people who work in the neighborhood. The neighborhood extends from the intersection of Eastlake Avenue E and Fairview Avenue at its southern end northward to University Bridge with Lake Union forming the western edge and I-5 forming the eastern edge. In 1962 the I-5 corridor cut through the neighborhood , creating a physical separation.

The shoreline has traditionally been the site of industrial, commercial, and residential uses. Several of Seattle’s houseboat communities are located along the Eastlake/Lake Union shoreline, primarily in the Portage Bay/Roanoke sub-neighborhood. Eastlake Avenue E is a major north-south traffic arterial and was one of Seattle’s primary trolley car routes.

RESPONSE TO SITE CONSTRAINTS

The site is steeply sloped with an elevation change of 35 feet from the lowest point at the site at the southwest corner to the highest point at the northeast corner. Along Eastlake Avenue E the elevation increases 9 feet. Along E Newton Street the elevation increases 26 feet with a 20% grade.

The proposal locates the active amenity spaces along the Eastlake Avenue E street frontage. Residential entry and retail coffee shop are concentrated to create a shared amenity court near the center of the site. Vehicle and service access is located at the southern most part of the site on Eastlake Avenue E to push the curb cut as far as possible from Eastlake and Newton intersection and utilize the slope of the site to seamlessly integrate the vehicular entry into the facade.

SUSTAINABILITY, LIGHTNESS & SENIOR LIVING

Through the Living Building Pilot Program, this project seeks to meet the Place, Materials, and Beauty petals of the Living Building Challenge. It also seeks to use 75 percent or less of the energy use targets established in the 2012 Seattle Energy Code’s Target Performance Path (25 percent reduction). In addition, the project will use no potable water for non-potable uses, as approved by Public Health, Seattle and King County .

More and more seniors report being concerned with environmental issues, but sustainability doesn’t start and stop with environmental impact. It also includes economic and social tenets such as enhancing sense of community, and creating comfortable and healthy indoor environments.

ENERGY STORY

To meet the stringent Living Building Pilot Program energy reduction goals as well as targets established with the City of Seattle, the project has incorporated intensive energy conservation measures throughout. A high performance envelope, high efficiency systems and fixtures, and a focus on operational energy reduction combine to reduce energy demand. An 11,000 square foot 111 kW high efficiency array provides the additional energy needed to meet LBPP target energy reduction.

WATER STORY

The Living Building Pilot Program requires that projects use no potable water for non-potable uses as approved by DOH and King County Public Health officials. With the exception of the memory care floor, all non-potable water needs in this community are supplied by on-site recycled greywater. These uses include all irrigation and toilet flushing. Rainwater is captured and stored in a cistern below grade (in addition to the greywater cistern) as backup water supply.

CRAFTSMANSHIP, MATERIALITY & INTENTION

“When I build a shell I leave a piece of my heart in that shell, that’s how I want you to leave a race.”

- George Yeoman Pocock

The racing shell is a carefully crafted vessel, constructed using the highest quality materials with scrupulous attention to detail. Every part of the shell is critical, serving a function - nothing is extraneous.

To meet the requirements of the Living Building Challenge Materials Petal, natural materials will be selected whenever possible. The integrated project team will thoroughly vet materials and products to specify those which are red list free, emphasize regional sourcing and responsible manufacturing, and reduce the carbon footprint of the building.

ROWING & THE SHELL HOUSE

“Where is the spiritual value of rowing? ... The losing of self entirely to the cooperative efforts of the crew as a whole.”

- George Yeoman Pocock

Rhythm and community are critical principles of rowing that also inform the design of the shell house. Rhythm is apparent in the lower floor of the shell house, the bays for shell storage. These bays provided for each crew also reflect community. Community and teamwork are emphasized further in the upper level of the shell house where dining, workout, and viewing spaces are placed.

This project is influenced by the traditional parti of shellhouse architecture in the repetition of bays, rhythm of facade articulation, and elements of lightness and community at the top level.

Details: Repetition and Compatibility

INSPIRATION FROM ROWING

Several major design elements of the building take their inspiration from the geometry, repetition, and compatibility of materials found in rowing. Alternating angles of a herringbone brick pattern repeat along the main street-facing facade, echoing the alternating strokes of oars. This same pattern is echoed in the main entry canopy, this time constructed in the contrasting materials of steel and glass.

INDOOR/ OUTDOOR CONNECTION

To create a strong, interactive connection to the street for the public, as well as residents, special attention was paid to the treatment of the facade at the coffee shop. A series of pedestrian amenities were integrated into the public realm and street edge including bicycle parking, oversized operable glazing, benches, entry court, a large sidewalk, and overhead weather protection along the entire Eastlake street frontage.

Fenestration and Facade Patterning

RHYTHM, REFINEMENT, LIGHTNESS

The inspiration of the 1936 Olympics gold medal rowing team and traditional shellhouse architecture is reflected throughout the building design on all sides. The concepts of rhythm and repetition of bays are seen in how the massing of the east facade is broken up with metal reveals. The base, middle, top parti is followed around to the north and east, wrapping brick around at the same level and using a fenestration pattern that reflects each component of the parti. Finally, the idea of lightness is emphasized at the top level of the building by using a lighter siding material and a different pattern of fenestration, with more glazing.

Urban Multifamily Residential + Retail

This apartment community provides a mix of studio, 1- and 2- bedroom apartments on an unusually shaped urban infill site near the corner of NE 28th Avenue and NE Sandy Boulevard in Portland’s Kerns Neighborhood. The project comprises 206 units total across six floors, along with parking below grade, two courtyards, and retail at the ground floor. The project is also highly visible from Interstate 84.

Concept Studies

STUDY MODELS

Study models exploring material and massing concepts were inspired by the location and history of the site, next to the historic Sullivan’s Gulch and I-84. These natural and man-made landforms generated ideas for four typologies to inform the project: Strata, Canyon, Aggregate, and Cavern (clockwise from top left).

TYPOLOGY CONCEPT SKETCH

Ideas of how to incorporate the four typologies derived from the concept models were applied to the massing study. Courtyards and notches were carved into the building, revealing slices of color and light. Materials and massing make subtle shifts from level to level, reflecting ideas of aggregation and strata.

Process: Site Massing

CONGRUENCE

The facade articulation reflects differences in character and context through the concept of congruence: uniting dissimilar pieces in harmony. Along the sides of the building in view of Interstate 84, the material articulation evokes the rhythm and movement of cars shifting positions. Pops of color are like headlights and tail lights.

The elevation along Sandy Boulevard has a much more neighborhood-like scale. Varied materials weave and contrast, and wood siding along the ground floor lends warmth and familiar texture. Upon entering the building along the main street frontage of active ground floor retail, one can catch a glimpse all the way through the building lobby to the apex of the building’s central courtyard, uniting the two wings.

Sample of Construction Documents

Design Throughout Process

THEME AND VARIATION

As junior designer and job captain on the project through construction documents, I was able to track early concepts throughout the process to make sure they were clearly communicated and developed for constructibility. I ensured that the varied textures and colors of metal panel the client desired were articulated in a logical and pleasing manner, and selected materials to appropriately reflect design intent within budget.

By coupling advanced skills in Revit and documentation with design sensibility, I was able to ensure that early concepts come to life in the built project. Design is just as much in the details as in the big ideas.

24 Hour ChallengeIndependent ProjectDesigner

I enjoy doing small projects on my own to keep my design skills sharp and try new techniques. This keeps me inspired and engaged. For this project, I gave myself 24 hours to find a difficult site somewhere near my neighborhood, identify what makes it challenging, and start developing an idea for a response. I found a cavernous space underneath a large highway interchange beneath the Fremont Bridge in Northeast Portland, and started brainstorming ideas. What if we saw the potential in underutilized spaces such as these, and turned them into hidden gems? They could be transformed by a grassroots movement into pop-up cocktail bars, homes for the house-less, flower markets, maker spaces... the possibilities are plentiful.

21st Century LibraryCapstone Thesis - Spring, Fifth Year

Conceptually, this project evolved from the intersection of three sets of contrasting themes: physical / virtual, local / global, and old/ new. These themes highlight three main areas in which libraries as a project type can evolve. The function of a library has shifted from a community’s collective place to store printed material toward a point of access to an interconnected web of global content across varied types of media. A 21st century library must embrace the inherent simultaneity between the physical and virtual worlds of the digital age in order to create a physical space that remains relevant.

Critical Position & Concept DevelopmentThe contrasts between physical and virtual worlds, local and global cultures, and old and new technologies are becoming ever more apparent. Through the design of physical environments, architecture has the capacity to bridge these gaps.

A vast amount of information can now be accessed by anybody with an internet connection, and taken anywhere in the world via mobile devices. Such devices act as the portals to virtual realms separate from the physical world and the sense of place inherent within it. As more people in more places have access to the same information, cultural globalization approaches homogeneity-- and this is reflected in the built environment.

When precedence is given to global culture, local ideas not represented in a virtual way begin to lose relevance. As such, one must adapt to new technologies not only to maintain literacy but also representation within them. Those who do not are left ever further behind as new technologies evolve. The deterioration of local culture in response to cultural globalization underscores the importance of an architect’s role in creating a physical place that plugs a local community in to worldwide virtual realms while protecting cultural identity.

“Imagine: a single library can now store the digital content of all the world’s libraries. It is di�cult to fathom the possibilities, let alone exploit them, without conceiving a new method of retrieval...the library’s civic duty is predicated on its ability to become its own database. All content remains �exible, updateable, and alive.”- Bruce Mau, Life Style, 2011

The three themes of the architectural position point toward three goals of a library: community, technology, and literacy-- distinct, yet interconnected.

Diagram illustrating network structure of Phoenix library system

Site location in Sunnyslope, Arizona, just north of downtown Phoenix where North Central Avenue, a major traffic artery, intersects the Arizona Canal.

Site Strategies and AnalysisThe concept of libraries of information existing as networked structures informed site analysis strategies. A main goal going forward with site planning was to acknowledge the strong existing vectors adjacent to the site-- the canal and major roadway. In addition, the design would take advantage of mountain views to the north while creating a lively public outdoor space with access to the Arizona Canal.

Program ProposalRooted in the Local Community, Providing Access to Global CultureThe design of a new branch library for the Sunnyslope, Arizona community will embrace new global technologies without losing sight of local culture. It will promote technological literacy and integrate physical and virtual experiences through multimedia learning and digital media browsing. It will create a sense of place through art installations, a strong connection to the outdoors, and a community archives collection. It will provide an environment for individual inspiration as well as a collaborative exchange of ideas.

By tailoring collections to the needs of the community and embracing digital technologies, new opportunities for spatial overlaps and flexible uses emerge.

Key Moments1. Cantilevering over the Arizona Canal, patrons get a much more direct experience of the water than by simply observing from a distance.

2. The built form is designed in an architectural language of form evolving from the land.

3. The space between the retail spaces and the program on the opposite side of the underpass is transformed into an inviting public plaza, with cafe seating and landscape shaded by the built form.

4. The geometry of the library projects outward at the main entry point.

5. Interior courtyards are interwoven with the geometry of the library, with glimpses visible from the exterior.

6. The east facade holds the street edge.

Exhibit DesignIndependent Research; Design Studio- Spring, Fourth Year

A grant-funded investigation into the collaborations of choreographer Merce Cunningham inspired an exhibit design selected by peers and instructors to publicly showcase the research. I translated conceptual ideas into a system of built forms, responding to input from my team and delegating tasks to finish the project on time and within the budget. The exhibit was open to the public for six weeks in the main gallery of the College of Architecture at the University of Arizona, and formed the environment for several related special events.

Research & Immersive Exhibit Design

A grant-funded investigation into the collaborations of modern dance choreographer Merce Cunningham inspired an exhibit design selected by peers and instructors to publicly showcase the research. I translated conceptual ideas into a system of built forms, and led a small team of fellow architecture students in prototyping and fabrication. The exhibit was open to the public for six weeks in the main gallery of the College of Architecture and Landscape Architecture at The University of Arizona, and formed the setting for several related special events.

Design StrategyThe exhibit documented seven multi-disciplinary works by Merce Cunningham and his collaborators, as well as other selected collaborations between choreographers and architects. Existing light fixtures formed the structure for exhibit panels to hang, displaying reproductions of music and dance notations, drawings, photographs, and text. The main design objectives were to create a field condition that encouraged multiple pathways through the exhibit (an idea referencing Cunningham’s open-ended choreography), and to shape the space without blocking views of the display panels.

Below: Rendering illustrating open circulation-- visitors can see display panels in chronological order of the content, or according to personal interests. A grid of thin rope and sliding plastic connectors forms a virtual ceiling above the exhibit panels, reflective of the grid in the concrete floor below. Visitors can circulate around audio-visual seating areas and drops in the rope grid while maintaining sight lines.

Rope sections were assembled in studio and installed in gallery.

Connectors were added between pre-assem-bled sections of rope.

Tension was adjusted to affect how much rope dropped down.

Exhibit ConstructionThe exhibit design went through many iterations of materials testing and full scale modeling to prepare for construction in the gallery. Each of the components, from seating areas to the connectors used to join rope together, went through a collaborative peer-review process until the materials and construction details were budgeted and finalized.
