A Word From The Editors

Inspiration strikes in the unlikeliest of places...

BY TERESA MARBOE, AIA AND KATIE CHEVALIER, AIA, LEED AP BD+C

When we mapped out ArchPLUS topics for the year, we used “Stranger Things” as a placeholder name for this issue.

We were deep into an obsession with the Netflix television show’s first season, and “stranger things” seemed the perfect way to describe our intent: to showcase architecture that was unusual, daring, and like the show, just plain fun.

The name stuck, and as you will see from the contents of this issue, it is a fitting descriptor. The word “strange” has a negative connotation, but the leap from “strange” to “innovative” can often be achieved just by the passage of time.

By allowing ourselves to appreciate those things that perplex or unsettle us, perhaps we will unwittingly spark the inspiration for future “strange” - and groundbreaking - design.

Look no further than our first feature for an example of extraordinary architecture. Herb Feuerstein, AIA takes us on a tour of Antoni Gaudi’s Barcelona, with anecdotes and photos from his recent trip.

Then, we return to our own backyard as Kate Wagner (creator of the popular “McMansion Hell” blog) breaks down Westchester’s architectural antecedents, and the strange things that have informed its vernacular.

6 ArchPLUS Winter 2018

And don’t miss the photo collection of “Stranger Architecture” that our members have encountered over the course of their work. We have all been on site visits or field measuring expeditions where we can’t believe what we are seeing, and as the saying goes,“a picture is worth a thousand words.”

We hope you enjoy this issue. It was a fun one for us to put together, and the perfect way to close out our editorial year.

Check back in with us in January for our annual design issue, featuring the winning projects from AIA Westchester/Hudson Valley’s 2017 Design Awards.

We wish everyone a happy, healthy, and safe holiday season. See you at Archibrü 81!

President’s Perspective

Solid Ground In 2018

BY RICHARD TORRES, AIA

It is with great humility and gratitude that I have the honor of serving you as your 2018 Chapter President. Never did I think I would be in such an honored position and I thank you all for your confidence. The role will be made infinitely easier by our enthusiastic and motivated board of directors. I look forward to serving with such a diverse and gifted group of professionals, all of whom are “plugged in”, able and eager to move our chapter forward. This year’s agenda will be a reflection of their vision as much as it is of mine. Go AIAWHV 2018!

I follow a legacy of leadership that must be recognized.

Please join me in extending a very special thank you to our Immediate Past President Mike Berta. May we, the current board, honor your and each our our past president’s commitment to by growing into our service to the chapter. It seems like a lifetime ago that, while at the sink doing the dishes, I took a call from another Past President asking me to consider joining the board of directors.

To Mike and all the who have served the long haul, we, the chapter, raise our glass in honor to you. Thank you, Salud, Buen Hecho!

(Well Done).

While we live in uncertain times. You can have confidence that our chapter is on solid ground. This was not always the case.

Not too long ago the chapter struggled and limped along - both finatintically and in lack of motivation. Through the hard work of your board and the forward thinking of chapter leadership, AIAWHV has never been stronger. We move into 2018 with a renewed sense urgency, knowing this crazy world waits for no one.

You should all, all 600 plus of you, expect to be hearing from a board member in the coming months. This initiative, started by past leadership, is our commitment to you, the membership, to

8 ArchPLUS Winter 2018

have our collective ear to the ground to hear from you. This is your chance to voice needs, concerns, frustrations, failures and triumphs. This is a dangerous thing as we will certainly learn of your misgivings with the chapter’s approach to service. This is precisely the point. With the guidance provided directly from you, we the board of directors, hope to reflect the thoughts of the chapter in a more holistic, inclusive way. We encourage you to engage and to be open, honest and blunt. We hope that you will.

We commit to listen to hear and to faithfully present your thoughts for consideration.

This will take some time. We anticipate this to be an extended effort that will likely take a year or two not a month or two. I am delighted to inform you that our chapter is the second largest in New York State. We will have many phone calls to make and emails to write. It will be worth the effort as your voice deserves to be heard and you are the constituency we serve.

Together, let’s make 2018 the year AIAWHV grew from within! Thank you again for your confidence!

Sincerely,

Richard Torres, AIA 2018 President

Emerging Professionals

EP CORNER QUARTERLY FEATURE

The resource for Emerging Professional AIA chapter members October was a busy month for the Emerging Professionals. Associates gathered for the evening on October 5th when Michael Riscica, AIA presented ‘How to Get Started with ARE 5.0”. The evening was full of essential content and discussed the importance of licensure for everyone who enters the profession. The attendees were reminded of the chapter’s scholarship program, ARE study sessions and ARE loan library. Michael Riscica added to the collection by donating his own book “How to Pass the Architecture Registration Exam.”

We ended the evening with giving away the ARE 5.0 PPD section of the Brightwood ARE study material. Thanks again to Michael for joining us for the evening and enlightening our Associates. Make sure to check out Michael’s book from the AIAWHV study library!

The following week, the Emerging Professionals Committee jointly hosted a happy hour event at the Village Beer Garden in Port Chester with three other professional organizations: SMPS (Society for Marketing Professional Services), CREW (Commercial Real Estate Women), and NSPE (New York State Society of Professional Engineers).

AIAWHV members had the opportunity to mingle with other industry professionals, relax over good food and drinks, and of course win Brightwood ARE 5.0 Study Material!

HIGH HONOR AWARD: The Browning School ARCHITECT: Peter Gisolfi Associates Architects + Landscape Architects, LLP LOCATION: New York, New York The Browning School is 56,000 SF K-12 college preparatory school for boys, located on East 62nd Street in New York City.

It occupies three adjacent buildings on 12 levels: the original school building from 1922 on the east side, a carriage house in the center, and the lower five floors of an apartment building on the west side. Over the years enrollment in the school increased significantly. Because of this incremental growth, the school occupied mul ple levels, and the spaces within it were dark, cramped, and diďŹƒcult to navigate.

HONOR AWARD: Wilson Townhouse Renova on ARCHITECT: Gallin Beeler Design Studio Architects LOCATION: Rye, New York This project is the re-imagina on, reconfigura on and renova on of a townhouse overlooking the Long Island Sound, originally designed by a team which included Edward Durrell Stone.

The exis ng boxy interior layout was fully demolished, and por ons of the concrete floors were removed and reconfigured. New skylights above a drama c glass and steel stair allow natural light to filter into the central areas of the three story townhouse.

The design uses gentle curves of fine cabinetwork and architectural finishes to direct views out of the townhouse towards spectacular vistas of Milton Harbor and the Marshland County Park.

In 1950, F.L. Wright disciple Roy Johnson planted this house on the wooded, rocky flank of a stream. His client, designer Arthur Umanoff, guided the stream’s descent through six ponds. Beyond, ancient rock forma ons and na ve trees transformed this suburban property into a Shangri La. For clients seeking a verdant retreat, STA subtly enlarged and refurnished the house, added a garage/studio and immersed a new tea house in the sounds of water cascading between the revived and enhanced ponds.

Hudson River HealthCare’s Peekskill facility was housed in a 1939 building with serious deficiencies, u lizing every square inch of its 24,000 s.f. area. This project renovates the three-story exis ng structure (1037 Main Street) as well as an adjacent one-story former Service Sta on (55 Bank Street), both owned by HRHCare, and inserts a 5,200 s.f. new building between the two exis ng structures. The design scheme creates a cohesive facility from these three components while enhancing connec ons with the surrounding community.

CITATION AWARD: Glass House ARCHITECT: Bialecki Architects LOCATION: Olive, New York

The Glass House was commisioned by a client who loves modern architecture and was interested in exploring the iconic mid century glass houses designed by Mies’s Farnsworth House, Johnson’s New Canaan House, Rudolph‘s Sarasota Houses, Koenig’s Stahl House, and many others. The goal was to adapt and interpret this iconic building type on a new site with a very different set of condi ons.

CITATION AWARD: Stone Co age ARCHITECT: Studio RAI Architecture Design PC LOCATION: Fairfield County Program: Guest Co age, Outdoor Dining Terrace, and Gardens The goal of the project was to unify two separate lots, one with an exis ng main house and the other vacant land, into one coherent property using architectural and landscape elements. Local stone was used as a unifying material throughout the project within the interior and exterior of the co age and the garden walls. The co age works as a mul -func onal space where recrea on and guest facili es are found. The pergola/outdoor dining terrace is an extension of the co age where seasonal entertainment takes place. Garden paths, plan ngs, and architectural follies create a playful labyrinth throughout the property encouraging outdoor ac vity.
