CHILDRENS BUS SHELTER PROJECT
2018 CPS BUS SHELTER
CPS BUS SHELTER spring 2018 arch studio capstone team members: Stephen Slaughter studio group
My senior capstone studio was challenged to create a bus shelter for the Cincinnati Public School system. The prompt was to design a shelter that could be easily replicated and remade at a mass scale to place around the city. We started by doing research about the safety and needs of the students, and then developed design concepts in small groups within our studio. We presented these ideas to the superintendents, students, and parents in the CPS system, and they helped us choose a clear path forward. We then went to different fabricators in the area to begin our construction research, and to get their advice on how to effectively build our prototype. We developed shop drawings for each piece of the shelter, and moved forward with construction. To complete the final structure, we used the CNC machine to cut out all of our wood pieces, welded our main steel support, and cut our metal rods and spacers to assemble the final product.

EUROPEAN VELO STOPS
EUROPEAN VELO STOPS winter 2018 beebreeders competition project team members: zoe evans & paige michutka
This competition tasked architects with creating a series of cost effective, environmentally responsible, and energy efficient cabins along the eurovelo 6 route. The prompt asked that the cabins be easily constructible and space efficient, while still making for a comfortable stay. Our design and construction method is simple. The cabin is designed to be a light wooden structure that sits atop a screw pile foundation. The walls of the cabin will be made by locally sourced, renewable timber. The shelter is intended to be constructed in 3 prefabricated parts - secured sleeping, living, and wet room - allowing for easy transportation to the site. The kit-of-parts assembly process allows for easy removal or addition of parts to accommodate each specific site and land area. A sliding screen door transforms the space into and enclosed area for the colder months, while allowing it to be open to the elements in the spring and summer time. The center of the space holds an adjustable table that can be pulled down to gather and eat around, or folded up against the wall to create more floor area for travelers and their belongings.

BROOKLYN NAVY YARDS
BROOKLYN NAVY YARDS fall 2017 arch studio master-planning solo project
This project prompt focused on the masterplanning of the demolished former navy yards in Brooklyn, New York. We did research about the history of the land, and then took a studio trip to New York City to see and survey the space in real life. We were each prompted to create a master plan that included housing, mixed-use, performance space, and ample parking to accommodate for these things. Along with that, we were challenged to create outdoor landscaping, and to make sure we had sidewalks and streets that provided necessary circulation through the plot of land. Lastly, we were encouraged to put our building design skills to use by focusing on one specific building on our land. I chose to further develop my grocery area, taking concepts from the French style of shopping, where each store is specialized for a specific need. There is a store for meat, fruits/veggies, pastries, and supermarket items, with a digitized main floor for easy shopping.

MULTI-FAMILY HOUSING
MULTI-FAMILY HOUSING spring 2017 arch housing studio solo project
For this project, I was challenged to create a multi-unit housing facility to fill half of a plot of land in Cincinnati. The other half of the plot (left side in this photo) was filled with a classmates housing facility from the same semester. Requirements included: a number of one, two, and three-bedroom apartment units, amenity space for tenants, and retail/restaurant space for the community. I decided to create two-story, loft style units, so that there is only a covered corridor every other floor. This way, each unit gets more space, more light, and access to a public balcony on the floors not being used as interior passage spaces. The randomized window patterns allow for maximum light in each specific unit, and the exterior is finished with thin black and gray paneling. My classmate, Sara Cannon (who shared the plot of land with me), and I decided to make a shared public courtyard space in between our buildings. This was done to maximize green space, create a passage to connect the differing street levels, and encourage outdoor gathering.

2018 URBAN INFILL
URBAN INFILL spring 2018 architecture competition project team members: zoe evans, paige michutka
This competition, presented by the Over-TheRhine foundation in Cincinnati, Ohio, challenged groups to design a building for an infill lot in the historic district of OTR. The prompt was to create a new building using modern construction and design methods, while still complimenting the historic surroundings. Our proposed design is comprised of two volumes that reference the heights of the adjacent buildings, brought together by a central vertical circulation space. For the facade, we manipulated the constraints of a typical brick construction and developed a perforated screen - maintaining historically appropriate materials in a modern context. The aperture locations were developed by following the grid of all other aperture heights in the immediate building context, while purposefully breaking up the symmetrical pattern for a more contemporary feel that fits the space.
