The goal of this project is to create a modern office space, practicing skills in space planning, programming, ADA compliance, and design representation. In addition, each student designed a brand, given a specific type of company, and integrated branding into the space. Next Door Realty specializes in finding low income housing for San Francisco natives looking to avoid displacement due to rising housing costs and gentrification within the city. It will work in conjunction with Plan Bay Area, a â&#x20AC;&#x153;planning process for the next 24 years meant to promote sustainable growth while reducing pollution and cutting greenhouse gas emissions.â&#x20AC;? Next Door finds most opportunities for affordable housing in The Tenderloin, a neighborhood in San Francisco notorious for high crime rates, that has also kept most of the affordable housing in the city. The intention of this design is to create a workspace encouraging collaboration between employees, as well as space to host clients in need of community. The space creates a calming atmostphere, with modern elemtents throughout.

The Hobbyist: Decoy Duck Carving This Hobbyist is a wood carver, lover of the outdoors, and conservationist. The Hobbyist carves birds: ducks, geese, shore birds, as well as fish, and other wildfowl. The decoyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s purpose is for hunting, detailed decoration (mantel ducks), or abstract folk art. The goals of the hobbyist are to create something beautiful, pass on their skills and craft, as well as conservation and awareness of the all American artform as well as wildlife habitat. The intention behind this design is to create a retreat for the Decoy Duck Carver. The design focuses on creating workspace and connections to the water and wildlife surrounding the retreat. It includes space for the hobbyist to share techniques and skills with the next generation and others. The artform can be preserved in having space for the showcase of award-winning decoys, as well as other art pertaining to wildlife conservation. A boardwalk will serve as one of the primary components, wherein users can appreciate the lake and the habitat, as well as observe the decoy birds in action. It will create a warm environment, where the views to the outdoors and space itself will evoke the feeling of being in the out doors at all times.

Autograph Event Perspective

The Osborne Era Club Annie Mimick, Mollie Pieper, Alex Regier, Lexi Williams The University of Nebraska - Lincoln asked the Interior Design Department to look into the private suites in Memorial Stadium. Our group spent five weeks examining the Osborne Era Club, the space connecting suites along the fourth and fifth floors of the West side of the stadium. The intention of the design is to attract users to engage with the space on Game Days as well as encourage rental use on Non-Game Days. It alse creates vertical connection between the two floors of suites, recognizes the traditions of Nebraska Football, and creates a sophisticated atmosphere. In order to encourage use of the space, several configurations were designed. Permanent Interventions inclulde a sculpture honoring the balloon release tradition, a timeline of Tom Osborneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s career, as well as a serving area. The space will be left largely without permanent intervention to allow opportunity for several events, including Autograph and Live Music events on Game Days, as well as Banquet style seating on Non-Game Days.

Soak Steam Dream The intention behind this design is to create a path for users to relax, discover, and learn; within a public bathhouse inspired by the Ancient Romans. The design focuses on creating transitions between key spaces as well as disrupting axial circulation paths. The intervention begins with new programs throughout the space. The entry garden creates an intermediate transition between the street and the indoors, and creates a space for the user to relax. Then, the “living room” greeting area creates a warm, cozy atmosphere for the user to enter completely into the building. The pool areais a place both to relax, or to learn. There is also a dark hallway, with a transition into the Eden, washed with light. The changing rooms are on either side. The Eden holds space for small yoga classes, or café style seating. The waterfall creates ambient sound throughout the space. The second floor is open to the Eden, so that the sound of the waterfall carries throughout the space. Here, a stream flows along the wall, were there is lounge, deck seating for anyone wishing to dip their feet in the water. There is also the Reading Room, inspired by the Roman tradition of having classrooms and education space in their public bathhouses. The atmosphere, again, is warm and cozy, a drier area, where users can relax, and discover the books on display in the bookshelves. The walls of bookshelves are placed so as to disrupt the direct path of the user, forcing them to slow down and perhaps interact with the collection. Finally, the rest of the second floor is open to the pool, as well as to a view out of the front curtain walls.

“Have you also learned that secret from the river; that there is no such thing as time?” That the river is everywhere at the same time, at the source and at the mouth, at the waterfall, at the ferry, at the current, in the ocean and in the mountains, everywhere and that the present only exists for it, not the shadow of the past nor the shadow of the future.” “There, about a dozen times during the day, the wind drives over the sky the swollen clouds, which water the earth copiously, after which the sun shines brightly, as if freshly bathed, and floods with a golden luster the rocks, the river, the trees, and the entire jungle.”

Linking the Link The intention of this design is to blur the transition between exterior and interior spaces. The form of the intervention is driven by the views along common circulation paths by multiple users of the space. The main emphasis being to direct and contain, the forms are arranged to guide the user through the link as well as provide spaces for multiple or single users. The form is composed of three rectilinear boxes, set at different heights and angles. The first exists between the two HVAC units on the Lower East Level. Circulation cuts through the middle with two rooms on either side. The walls are made of transparent acrylic; facing the rest of the link and the One West Level they are inlaid with grasses to tie in the outdoors in a completely interior space. The Circulation on the first level ends in stairs leading up to the Kruger Gallery. These stairs dictate a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Path to Nowhereâ&#x20AC;? where the second form sits above. This is where users can interact with the living wall, as well as leading to a seating area on the One East Level. Finally, the third form sits at an angle above the rest of the intervention, and protrudes through the side of the Link. This space is the culmination of Interior and Exterior Blur, as it is a glass room sitting outside of the Link.

RISD Fleet Library Precedent Study The Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) Fleet Library was renovated in 2002, after the old bank building was donated to the school to become a new multimedia library as well as student housing. The main goals of the new design in this space were intervention, preservation, and engineering. The NADAAA designers found it impossible to fit all of the Libraryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s required program within the original square footage. So, the island intervention was added, creating a new reading room, as well a multiple study spaces and meeting rooms. The designers also wanted to preserve the original architecture of the building. In so doing, they chose materials and for the interventions that complimented the original materials in the bank. These included cork flooring, plywood desks, and plywood walls in the interventions with the names of artists and authors cut in. The engineering of the space came in updating it to comply with ADA standards. This space was meant to be a living room for the students living above it as well as public space, and so it was necessary that people in all walks of life would be able to access every part of it. Finally, the Fleet Library is an example of being able to update a historic building, to create a totally modern, usable space without completely changing its identity.
