Integration

PROJECT BRIEF The new ASU academic building is an academic mixed use building which is going to replace the old Wilson hall. This project phase is a part of a bigger plan that aims to rebuild the vibrant area around the center of Tempe campus. As an academic building, students and academic staff are going to be the main users of the building in addition to the student support department.

Precedents Program Site analysis

1.1

PRECEDENTS

GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY CAMPUS Architect LEGORRETA Ar-Rayan, Qatar completed 2011 Educational

Georgetown University in Qatar is part of the educational city which included other branches of worldwide universities. The project is constructed of a main library to the west and students center to the southwest. Both volumes are oriented to a heritage ruin and park with a strong visual link by landscape design.

PRECEDENTS

SIEMENS HEADQUARTER Architect: Sheppard Robson Masdar, UAE completed 2013 Offices

Siemens headquarters is one of the last completed ideal sustainable headquarters in the middle east. The concept was to design a building that is most sustainable design and price per square meter compared to other headquarters in Abu Dhabi, UAE. The building floats above a new public plaza, which the result of a stringent brief.

PRECEDENTS

KAUST MAIN CAMPUS Architect: HOK Thuwal, Saudi Arabia completed 2009 Educational

KAUST project was one of the most challenging projects designed by HOK because of the nature of project location and climatic region. In this project, architects were requested to create solutions to achieve the requirements of LEED platinum certification. In addition, architects did no stop at solving the climatic issued but continued to reflect the saudi culture with a modern applications which was inspired by ancient architecture of the red sea.

SITE ANALYSIS

The diagram above shows the location of the Wilson Hall insied the main campus. As shown above, the building is located in the middle of five main links, which are mostly busy and occupied by pedestrains.

The site is located in a mid-rise buidling area, with building heights between 20’-76’. This allows for more dynamic and felixable design.

2.1

PRELIMINARY DESIGN

SITING

Design motivations: A. Connectivity B. Visibility

Although the old Wilson hall building (Hot dog building as known among students) is located in the center of Tempe campus, the lack of visibility and connectivity is highly noticeable. To fix that, the design concept aims to relocate the vocal points of the new building to be noticeable from many directions, and to increase the pedestrian movement by reconnecting pathways from north to south of the site.

2.1

PRELIMINARY DESIGN

SCHEME 1

Pros: Functionality Cons: Lack of visibility and connectivity

The first scheme is more about the application of pragmatics while keeping the importance of the location. This approach achieved the connectivity but lacked the importance of visibility.

2.1

PRELIMINARY DESIGN

SCHEME 2

Pros: Adaptation to climate Cons: Lack of space, visibility and connectivity

The second scheme is testing the functionality of shaded volume. Although it acheived some of the climatic goals, it lacks the daylight and the functionality of the program.

2.1

PRELIMINARY DESIGN

SCHEME 3

Pros: program requirements, design motivations Cons: Irregular form, bulkness

To generate more spaces for the program requirement, this scheme is about having more enclosed shape around the site, but open to the inside with a main breathing spot in the middle. In addition, the mass is nodged slightly toward main pedestrian axes for attraction.

2.1

PRELIMINARY DESIGN

SCHEME 4

Pros: program requirements, design motivations Cons: Adaptation to context, building systems

As a result of the past three experiments, shceme 4 was generated. In this scheme, the integration between analysis and design ideas has driven the process twoard new duplicated schem in which most solutions and design ideas could be merged.

Views to the building

2.1

PRELIMINARY DESIGN

MASSING GENERATION

Views from the building

Based on scheme 4, the new mass is designed as a system more than a shape to study the strenghts and weaknesses of this approach. As a main focus, visibility takes the main focus of the design in which views from inside and outside the building can be maintained carefully.

2.1

PRELIMINARY DESIGN

MASSING GENERATION

GATHERING SPOT ATTRACTION ELEMENT

GATHERING SPOT

This massing aims to interact positively with context taking in consideration the pedestrian movement and building orientation. By rotating the whole building five degrees above east-west axes, and eleveating the building to one level above the pathways, a shading shelters and gathering spots generates attraction points for pedestrians.

2.2

DESIGN WITH CLIMATE

DAYLIGHT FACTOR ANALYSIS

To solve for direct sun in Arizona, a daylight factor analysis was conducted using Revit analysis.

Based on that, tensile fabric shading could solve for the red zones around the building facades.

2.3

BUILDING SYSTEMS RULES OF SYSTEMS

To achieve high functionality among building systems, the preliminary design follows the 30’x40’ structural grid using 24” rounded concrete columns and post tension concrete slabs. VAV (Variable Air Volume) systsm is chosen for the HVAC because of cost and efficiency, and the maximum travel distance should not exceed 300’ (business class, sprinkled) according to the Studio Companion book.
