There has been a question whether to utilize the use of Air Rights into downtown Lincoln, Nebraska to increase urban density and create a new vernacular for the city. Working with par tner Salem Topalovic, we proposed an Air Rights structure over the Grand Manse building in Downtown Lincoln. This building once housed the operations of the Federal Government for Lincoln until 1974. In 2003 it was purchased and turned into a 50 unit apar tment building.

the purpose Students worked hand in hand with a client in a community effort to design a creative and innovative alternative to low income housing in Lincoln, Nebraska. Shipping container structures are not commonly seen in Lincoln but were employed as the main component of the home to demonstrate the validity of creative alternatives. The team for this project involved Alec Eastman, Anna O’Neill, Caitlin Tangeman, Salem Topalovic, Mike Seeger, and Scott Smith. Students created construction documents, presentation drawings for clients, a 1/4” scale model, and other visual representations.

Travel Experience 2009-2016
What I have Learned My time in Europe has given me great appreciation and understanding of other cultures and lifestyles in a way that extends beyond the classroom. An in person experience is a great compliment to university academics and very beneficial in shaping a young architect, because design ability is not something that can be exclusively learned and enhanced through texts and lectures. There is a spiritual and personal aspect to architecture that cannot be understood without personal visit. Not only has traveling helped me become a better designer, but it has given me the skills to be able to succeed in a world that is always providing new challenges. Traveling requires that one think critically, have self-confidence, and be flexible to new and different situations. I feel confident in my ability to go out and contribute to the world. I do not shy away from new or uncomfortable situations but instead look to take them head on and never back down from a challenge. -Alec Eastman
