Energy Plus Portable Classroom

State of Hawaii Department of Education Ewa Beach, Hawaii Status: built 2013

This energy-neutral portable classroom is designed to provide an optimized educational environment for students and teachers while advancing sustainable design principles. The classroom maximally conserves as well as collects and generates natural resources, including electrical energy, daylight, wind energy, and rainwater. As well as being strong, efficient and conserving, natural forces and resources are highlighted and exposed throughout the structure, and all systems and performance criteria are monitored and broadcast to the web. The building acts as a learning tool for occupants, other schools and the general public. The design optimizes photovoltaic roof surface orientation, naturally shaded northfacing daylight glazing, and modulated natural ventilation. All of these forces are balanced with the additional criteria of manufacturing and transport efficiency, functionality for classroom use, low operating costs and ease of maintenance. The manufacturing and delivery process, and the materials and products employed are all selected for minimum environmental impact and for maximum contribution to a healthy indoor environment. The building is prefabricated in either two or three easily transportable modules, reducing initial cost and energy, and facilitating ease of transport and reuse in the future, minimizing waste. A steel frame and steel and rigid foam sandwich panel floor and roof system minimize material use; maximize insulation and heat reflection; and deter pests and mold in the cavity-free structure.

Harvard Yard Child Care Center Cambridge, Massachusetts Status: built 2009 Harvard University commissioned a portable building to accommodate children from campus childcare facilities that are undergoing permanent renovation over the next several years. Initially expecting to use modular office trailers typical to the rental fleets of commercial modular builders, the project transformed into an ambitious prototyping project to produce a new standard for highly flexible, high quality, sustainable modular buildings that could compete financially with the standard, energy intensive and often unhealthy mass market products. To accomplish this goal, the building components are based as closely as possible to the conventional sizes, configurations and fabrication systems typical to the modular industry. Within this rigid typology, construction systems were closely studied and streamlined at every opportunity. Standard materials and equipment were replaced with healthier, more sustainable and less energy intensive alternatives wherever this could be achieved within reasonable cost constraints and with minimal disruption to factory work line procedures. The resulting new standard module maintains the existing proportions and system logic dictated by transportation law and factory constraints, but revolutionizes quality in terms of ceiling height, acoustics, indoor thermal comfort, indoor air quality, natural light and ventilation, low carbon footprint, healthy materials and sustainable materials, equipment and energy use.

Tufts University Student Information Systems Building Somerville, Massachusetts Status: built 2011 Tufts University commissioned a relocatable building to accommodate Student Information Systems training and office space. After initially exploring the use of leased off-campus commercial office space for this program, Tufts approached the design-build team of Anderson Anderson Architecture and Triumph Modular to help explore options for creating needed office space on-campus in a very tight time frame. While maintaining industry-standard module proportions dictated by transportation law and factory constraints, this building revolutionizes design and construction quality in terms of ceiling height, acoustics, indoor thermal comfort, indoor air quality, natural light and ventilation, low carbon footprint, healthy and sustainable materials and equipment, and significantly reduced energy use. Surfaces, materials and colors throughout the space are selected not only for health, sustainability, functionality and hygienic ease of maintenance, but also to provide vibrancy, fun and creative inspiration for the building’s occupants. Portions of the building are repurposed in modified form from a former child care center, and new modules were designed and manufactured to coordinate and expand the structure for an entirely new use, site, and client. The design process was entirely conducted in BIM 3-D computer modeling, included environmental modeling simulations to improve user comfort.

HeiLinPu School for Early Education

Kunming, Yunnan, CHINA Status: construction in-progress, completion in Summer 2014 The Hei Lin Pu Kindergarten is designed to provide a high quality of experience for the teachers, staff and children, while also providing an important addition to the urban quality of the surrounding community. The kindergarten is positioned on its site and shaped in form to optimize natural ventilation, light and sunshine in all classrooms and in the outdoor play areas. The building mass forms strong north and west walls along the adjacent streets in order to help define and enhance the urban street space of the neighborhood while creating a significant image for the as an important institution within the community. These strong north and west walls are given dynamic form and lively presence along the street by positioning the primary lobby, public spaces, stairs and corridors of the building along these walls, and then through the use of glass as well as large sections of wooden slats providing transparency and the filtered sound and shadows of children to play along these facades. Skylights and air corridors behind the wood slat wall bring sunlight for the south projected onto the north and west facades so that sunlight and backlit shadows animate these large facades along the streets.

Wurster Workshop

College of Environmental Design University of California, Berkeley Commissioned to serve as both an experimental production facility and as a showcase for new material applications and computer-controlled fabrication technologies, this building addition, interior renovation, and courtyard landscape ramp focus on the minimal definition of large flexible spaces in order to allow for a wide range of activities and continual updating of the teaching program and fabrication tools. Reflecting the simple, cellular functionality of the Esherick-designed original building, with its didactically exposed construction systems, the new addition follows the structural geometry of the existing building frames, but employs new translucent skin materials, computer-generated folding geometries, and computer-controlled fabrication processes to produce a simple, rectilinear enclosure with a wire-taught, environmentally active structural skin. The primary work area is enclosed within a ventilating roof and wall system that collects and outspouts the rain while allowing hot air and fumes to exhaust through a matrix of large roof apertures, functioning similar to a dorade vent on a ship. 2006 Progressive Architecture (P/A) Award – Wurster Workshop, California 2005 Boston Society of Architects Design Award – Wurster Workshop Shop Addition to UC Berkeley College of Environmental Design, California

Judson College Library, Art & Architecture Building Elgin, Illinois

The program called a new Academic Center complex for the campus through the creation of new structures for the Central Library, the Art Department, and the newly established Architecture Program. Creating interactive gathering spaces in an environmentally sensitive building were two main goals in the design of the complex. The building is organized around a central space that encourages social interaction and both chance and planned meetings at all times of the day. During the daytime and in good weather, the outdoor courtyard serves many functions as a point of welcome, a dining area, an outdoor classroom or reception area, or an informal performance space. In cooler weather, the central lobby space at the heart of the building serves to connect the five levels of the building into a warm and lively space shared by the whole campus. Manipulating light by day and night from different parts of the building, as well as a well-placed coffee shop and exterior landscape spaces near the complex were other ways in which the design encourages connections between different parts of the complex and school. Another important connection in the design is between the inhabitants and the building. There is an opportunity to use the building itself as an educational tool to increase the awareness of the potential for buildings to contribute to environmental sustainability. This means that systems of environmental adaptation should not be hidden and discrete, but should be celebrated and articulated in the building design.

Evergreen State College Forest Canopy Access Center Olympia, Washington

Eve Co Ca Cen

The Evergreen State College Forest Canopy Project involves the construction of an aerial hike through the forest canopy adjacent to the campus library. The accessible walkway takes off from the third floor of the library and winds up, through, and back down to the ground within the forest. The walk is punctuated by a series of events and platforms for scientific experiments, instruction, interpretation, and public viewing. A seminar room provides a major way-station on the hike. This enclosed space hovers within the forest canopy and provides a year-round multi-purpose meeting and performance space int he tree tops.

Olym

The primary purpose of the canopy project is to create a widely accessible public entry into the generally unreachable frontier of the forest tree tops. The structure will serve multiple functions as a place for educational instruction, scientific research, public awareness, recreation, and creative, inter-disciplinary projects in the arts and sciences.

Wuhan Blue Sky Prototype Wuhan, China, 2007

The form and organization of the building has been developed to encourage community social interaction throughout the building, while also providing desirable levels of privacy for individual dwelling spaces and private outdoor terraces. To best integrate with the larger neighborhood, the building and site planning is coordinated with the existing planned facilities for a great lawn leading up from the community entrance toward a community gym and shopping center. These public facilities are integrated with the Blue Sky Prototype so that the entire site is planned together as an open-air network of pedestrian streets and public gardens at ground level and winding up into the vertical floor plates. The organization of the dwelling units places front doors along wide open-air “streets” in the sky. Arranged with numerous informal social gathering spaces at all levels within the building. Whereas the typical residential arrangement in China affords excellent solar orientation and through-building ventilation on two sides of each dwelling unit, the resultant circulation system provides a very isolating relationship to neighbors and community, wholly at odds with the communal recent history of China as well as with long-standing traditions of shared community streets, courtyards and gardens integral with daily life and commerce. The Blue Sky Prototype attempts to preserve and reinforce the social tradition of streets, community courtyards, dense social interaction, and multi-layered relationships between private and public space. To accomplish these objectives, the dwelling units are organized with a great variety of living options all providing front door access to community “streets”. The basic module of dwelling units is composed of one or two south-facing flats on one side of the street, with two story townhouse dwelling with entry doors on the north side of the “street”. These two story units then extend over the top of the flats, so that the primary living spaces of every dwelling in the building all face south, with generous private balconies, excellent sun and daylight, and extensive through-ventilation on a minimum of three sides of each unit, with most units having a full four sides of ventilated window area.

ANDERSON ANDERSON ARCHITECTURE

All bathrooms, bedrooms and living spaces have direct windows to the outdoors, with the large majority of rooms having cross-ventilation within the room. This two-story dwelling organization with “streets” and elevator stops only every two floors saves substantially on initial construction costs and also on long term maintenance and energy costs. Equally important, this arrangement facilitates the density of chance human encounter that is more commonly encountered in a traditional Chinese street, and the resultant layers of overhanging private balconies, open windows in all directions, and a network of alternate travel routes, small and large public spaces, and a variety of populated destination points throughout the building all serve to provide the rich and varied human encounter that is so enjoyable in dense cities when they are full of air and light, full of people, and afford a variety of veiled and semi-veiled private spaces in close proximity to neighbors and the larger community. The public “streets” and steel rod screen wall system that defines and modulates spaces within the residential building is continued out into the adjoining ground level shopping and community center area where the same system is used to link the primary outdoor spaces of the project and to create two large domes— one over the community pool and gym area at the head of the great community lawn, and the other smaller dome creates an intimate, shaded open-air courtyard surrounded by shops, restaurants and the community center entrance. Viewed form the public spaces of the tower above, viewed from the community center and shopping spaces below, or viewed from any distant point within the community, the visual and spatial continuity of this public thread from ground to sky creates a strong image of sustainable public community woven into the neighborhood.

CamelBackShotGunSponge Gardens New Orleans, Louisianna

This high-density urban housing landscape is designed as an environmental sponge absorbing climatic impacts and slowly filtering the captured water and energy back into their natural and human eco-systems as useful nutrients. The site itself reaches out through the park to create an alluvial delta comb recapturing passing river sediment to slowly replenish and build the high ground and its natural waterfront life, much as the natural delta, bayous and barrier islands originally functioned. These sponge-like delta fingers then reach back and up to form the housing blocks themselves, which in turn also function as absorptive, living tissue in the larger landscape. The project will be fabricated almost entirely offsite using a hybrid, steel-frame/structural insulated panel system using no internal cavities and no water absorptive construction materials. The individual building units will be efficiently manufactured in three road-legal halves per typical two or three-bedroom flat and then stacked by crane as complete housing units on top of prefabricated, ground level retail and service cores built of water and termite resistant composite concrete panels. Earth excavated for building foundations is redistributed as water absorptive landscape berms creating a unified outdoor common space flowing upward from the river bank, through the public park and integrating into the geometry and eco-system of the individual house blocks. Dwelling units share a common geometric order defined by the local urban street grid and housing typologies merging with the delta webbing of earth and water at the riverbank. Within the regular grid, the slightly sliding, rising and falling house positions create a readably syncopated rhythm, allowing the gardens and open space to shrink and swell across the roofs, creating variously sized and shaded outdoor gardening, dining and play areas. Community vegetable gardens, picnic and play areas weave as continuously linked walkways and platforms winding among the buildings above the parking level below, both defining internal community areas and flowing outward to the street edge as densely vegetated corridors of air and skylight, welcoming integration with the life and spatial massing of the larger neighborhood.

Texas Prairie Hopper

Texas Christian University, Institute for Environmental Studies Fort Worth, Texas This environmental education pavilion is a pre-fabricated, portable, off-grid, structure showcasing innovative green technology. The pavilion will fold-up, be transported as a shipping container and be re-deployed at a series of sports events, providing shade, two-story views, refreshments and environmental education for diverse public communities not ordinarily exposed to advanced green technology and education. The structure is intended to be fun, functional and educational and is constructed of reused components, high-recycled content steel, recycled content shade cloth and modular, xeriscaped planting trays. Protected within a limestone-composite thermal and evaporative-resistant mass, native prairie grasses, cactus and several hundred additional species thrive without regular irrigation. The project was deployed 55 days from napkin-sketch, through detailed design, fabrication, assembly, and delivery. Remote team collaboration was facilitated by a central BIM database and various social networking applications. All professional services were pro-bono in the interest of advancing environmental education and construction prefabrication technologies. The shade screens variably articulate to provide optimized shading whatever the pavilion orientation, then fold flat for transport. Ganged, evacuated-tube solar thermal collectors provide potable, sanitary hot water. The pavilion is selfpowered by building-scale wind turbines and high-efficiency photovoltaics. 2009 AIA California Council Awards for Architecture, Honor Award in the Small Project Award category Por tfolio 作品精選 24

Chameleon Tower

Leelanau County, Michigan This house is a tower rising above the rolling topography of its cherry orchard site, peering outwards toward spectacular westward views of Lake Michigan and the surrounding agricultural landscape. The site is left minimally disturbed, other than the mounding of two earthen enclosures adjacent to the tower, utilizing the excavated earth of the foundation and offering an earthbound contrast to the tower experience above the treescape. A more conventional house form would appear as an unsympathetic intrusion in this pure landscape. With its singular vertical presence rising above the orchard, the tower is intended to reflect the austere, scaleless non-particularity of the occasional farm buildings dotted elsewhere on the hills. To help mask the scale and house, program window requirements of the structure, the building is wrapped in a skirting wall of recycled translucent polyethelene slats, standing two feet out from the galvanized sheet metal cladding of the wall surface, on steel frames that serve also as window washing platforms and emergency exit structures. The translucent polyethylene material set out over the dully reflective wall cladding is chosen for its ability to gather the light and color of its landscape, dissolving the finely shadowed and inexplicably haloed structure into the site’s seasonal color cycle of snow and ice and black twig tracery; pale pink blossom clouds; pollen green leaf and grass; golden straw and vivid foliage. 2006 AIA San Francisco Honor Award – Chameleon House, Michigan 2006 ACSA Faculty Design Honor Award – Chameleon House, Michigan 2005 AIA California East Bay Award Citation – Chameleon House, Michigan

Sited within a mature apple orchard in Sonoma County, the house is built in conformity with the strict rectilinear geometry of the tree grid, and equally exploiting the secondary diagonal surprises particular to human motion through an agricultural field. The site was intensely studied for the individual particularities of each unique tree within the orchard field, and the house design then developed this same character of individual conditions within a predominantly regularized system. True to the character of the orchard, the house is laid out as long sequences of interior and exterior courtyards, defined by the adjacent trees, affording long, metered views along the rectilinear and diagonal axes of the field. The massive concrete walls align with the rows of tree trunks, while the open volumes of the rooms and exterior courts align with the open space between trees, affording a direct spatial continuity between house and landscape, figure and void. The house is a low, single story volume, wheelchair accessible throughout, built with a minimal range of materials: heated concrete slabs, raw concrete primary walls inside and out, with secondary walls and ceiling clad in white drywall on the interior, with galvanized steel on the exterior. The flat roof of the house is low, and kept well below the top limbs of the orchard. 2006 AIA California Council Design Merit Award 2005 AIA California East Bay Citation Award

Manhattan Penthouse New York, New York

A developer with a penthouse apartment in a building in Uptown Manhattan asked us to investigate the possibility of adding a second story to his unit. The plan would offer the condominium association a second adjacent rooftop unit for common use in exchange for the developer’s rights to construct his private penthouse addition on the east side of the roof. At thirty-two stories, the roof is near the upper limits for feasible access by very large mobile crane. Permitting for crane access is relatively complex and increasingly so with lengthier street-closure times. Hourly crane time is very expensive as well, and insurance and safety risks rise dramatically as the length of crane time, numbers of individual truck deliveries, and number of lifts increases. For all of these reasons, a substantially complete prefabricated building module is very sensible. A very large and heavy unit creates other problems, however, so there are still offsetting considerations for less prefabrication with smaller sub-assemblies. For this project, we settled on the complete module system, but we have simultaneously developed a system of elevator-sized, folding structural components that could be brought up to the roof in many compact parcels and then quickly deployed on the roof top.

The initial design impetus for this modular, prefabricated building prototype came from a request for a vacation house to be situated on a spectacular riverside site in the middle of the national forest, high in the Sierra Mountains. The site is completely isolated, far from power, phone, paved roads, or towns, and required a solution that could be built almost entirely offsite. The only access road is too narrow, twisty, and rough to accommodate commercially available modular home solutions, and the steep site required a steel structural frame able to cantilever out over a creek. All requiring off-site fabrication and rapid erection in difficult construction conditions, a common frame and enclosure system was developed to provide great program flexibility and site specificity within an affordably standardized building system.

The primary structural frame is composed of 8’ x 12’ x 8’ square tube steel frames, joined end to end to form the building’s 60’ length and cross-braced with steel rods for lightweight lateral stability. Four of these inhabitable trusses are then joined together to form the two-story building, joined laterally by 6’ bolt-on spreader beams to create the open interior hall and 22’ wide overall width. While still in the fabrication shop, these structural steel chassis modules are fitted with SIPS panel insulating enclosure walls with lightweight steel skins, plywood interiors and full plumbing, mechanical, cabinetry and mechanical systems. All mechanical systems are contained within a single stacked module system, minimizing cost and the complexity of on-site connections.

This mixed-use, mixed-income urban housing landscape was designed for Habitat for Humanity of Greater Charlottesville who acquired a city-block sized site occupied by a trailer park. The project will be fabricated almost entirely off site using a hybrid steel-frame/SIPs system.The individual building units consist of two road-legal halves per typical three-bedroom flat, which are then stacked by crane as complete three-story, three-family units on top of semi-buried, prefabricated, composite concrete basement vaults. Earth excavated for building foundations is redistributed as rolling landscape berms, creating a unified outdoor common space flowing around the individual house blocks. Dwelling units share a common geometric order defined by a superimposed agrarian orchard grid planted with fruit-bearing shade trees, physically grounding the buildings, while simultaneously enhancing the rich symbolism of a community rooted in the local Jeffersonian earth.

Phoenix House (In construction) Berkeley CA

The house is entirely cad-cam fabricated offsite, working from our fully fabricationdetailed BIM files. The house is a combination of timber frame, structural steel and panelized wood frame construction. All of the major component systems are cad-cam milled wood components, or highresolution laser-cut steel components. Much of the work is fabricated by different specialty industrial contractors in Portland Oregon, panelized as sub-assemblies in Oregon, and then shipped and erected by my team on site. This is a comprehensive experiment in design-build alternative practice, cad-cam prefabrication, sustainable systems design, and highly ambitious integration with a complex site and site history. The house is for a family that has owned a house on this site for more than 60 years. The family was prominent in the Bay Area craft community, and the original house was designed by prominent modernist Berkeley architect Henry Hill. The house and a large collection of art and craft artifacts was tragically lost in a fire five years ago. While the new design is a significant departure from the original house, the project has been conceived as a collaboration with the dead architect, who was a close friend of the owner’s family, and for whom there is a great deal of archival material available. This project builds on a previous similar project we have completed as a complete renovation and additions to an important mid-century modern home in Oakland, designed by well-known Berkeley architect Roger Lee.

Module delivery & seperated module plans

This is an experimental project in modularized off-site production, affordable construction methods, and architect collaboration with a manufacturing plant. In this case, we did not set up a formal design-build team, but we brought in the manufacturer to work with a local builder for site installation. The project employs many of the advances in modular woodframe construction that we have developed in other projects. It is primarily focused on compact, high-quality urban in-fill housing for tight sites, with a particular focus on drastically reducing construction costs in a high-cost construction region of California. The project was built in five modules in Oregon, shipped to the site, and assembled in one day. There was still finishing and knitting together of systems and finishes at the module mate lines, but this is a potentially revolutionary way to provide low-cost, sustainably constructed housing. Our pioneering work in this area has been highly influential during the past twenty years, with numerous awards and publications. This project is an important further step in this series of our work.
