MODULATION integrated healthy living architecture + health graduate studies | 2010

A conceptual form driven by the connection between Rhett and Main Streets via a public greenscape promenade. acts as a catalyst to activate Greenvil es’ underdeveloped western main street. the promenade penetrates through the downtown site and imposes a delicate balance amongst the two structures. restorative atmosphere achieved for residents and public alike to promote healthy living. featured in the site is a five-story atrium in the living tower and a two-story arboretum,treated as an iconic glowing tower that anchors the Mathers Center and provides for a sense of wayfinding.

Il processo di atomizzazione ad alte temperature, a cui le tegole sono sottoposte, conferisce all’impasto una maggiore resistenza fisica, dando origine ad un composto di altissima qualità tecnica. Grazie al loro materiale durevole le tegole hanno una maggiore resistenza agli agenti atmosferici ed agli urti, in più assorbono una minore quantità di acqua e di calore.

Tegolasolare si monta come una normale tegola, garantendo una copertura molto stabile.

living quarters schemes

The high-temperature spray-drying production process gives to the ceramic mix greater physical strength, creating a compound of extremely high technical quality. Thanks to their durable material, the tiles have better resistance to weather and knocks, and also a reduced water and heat absorption. The Tegolasolare tile can be installed just like an ordinary roof tile, ensuring a very stable roof.

Downtown Charleston is plagued with issues of heavy congestion and inefficient mobility. The quaint narrow streets that lend the city its charm are unaccommodating for a heavy vehicular influx.

Residents have asked for a better system of public transportation to alleviate the current traffic problems.

A new,intercoastal C-Link ferry seeks to reduce congestion by introducing alternative forms of transportation to connect with the existing infrastructure. A coastal ferry service links key ports around the Charleston peninsula with ports at James Island,Folly Beach,Mount Pleasant,and West Ashley. A short tramline passes through the heart of downtown and connects two of these multi-modal points. The C-Link relieves the heavy flow of traffic over the bridges and to the beaches,and it provides easy access to diverse destinations in the city.

This system respects the character of the city and enhances the water features that give Charleston a sense of place. Mass transit becomes a more pleasurable experience and avoids the stigmas often associated with public buses. Further benefits include a disaster preparation model that improves evacuation for natural disasters.

The C-Link lessens the carbon footprint by operating zero-emissions electric water ferries and electric trams. The C-Link Ferry prepares the city for the next fifty years and beyond by adjusting for the growing population trend with greater efficiency, mobility,& sustainability in Charleston’s network of transportation .

URBAN ANALYSIS urban fabric of musc | charleston, south carolina architecture + health graduate studies | 2011 collaboration with andrew pardue and ryan ramsey

A look at the formal,structural,functional,typological,chronological,and perceptual elements of the fabric of Charleston through a mapping comparison of the more abstract graphic analysis with what we feel by experiencing the city. The study involved a more engaged and in-depth look at an urban landscape,– one that can only be achieved by experiencing it firsthand. It wil not only be concerned with analyzing the physical patterns of the city but how the physical fabric of the city – the artifact - is informed by the living city, and in the inverse, how these physical fabric patterns impact life in the city.

GREENWAY

The medical center campus is a reflection of the mission implied by the MUSC hospital and health system to support and optimize health and healing. As a healthy and sustainable environment, the MUSC campus plan provides therapeutic building and civic spaces and landscape features for patients, families, staff and citizens of the community at large. The plan reflects conceptually and physically as a hospital without walls,where community activities,events and spaces exist on the campus and health services are dispersed into the community. It is a place that makes the medical center district a better and a more desirable place to receive care, live within and next to, learn, work and play.

[design and methods]

[abstract] Architectural design retains a direct relation to the senses of well-being,security,and comfort for its occupants,specifically in healthcare facilities where the primary focus is on healing. We can utilize this ability to aid in patients’ healing process by providing restorative environments that cater to specific perceptions of happiness,comfort,familiarity,and sanctuary. Further investigations into evidence-based design has inspired designers to begin implementing simulated environments,existing natural environments,and the concept of bringing nature inside. Through the integrations of differing n“ ature” techniques within the healing environment, architectural designers intend to achieve such positive benefits as tranquility,serenity,peace of mind,relief of stress and pain, and a boost in mood levels for patients, staff, and family alike.

The hypothesis states that the integration of nature in the architectural design of healthcare facilities creates a restorative environment to promote the healing process for patients.

WHO

This study aims to identify the different ways that nature is implemented within healthcare facilities by looking through two analytical lenses: Kaplan’s Theory of Restorative Environments (interactive and kinesthetic) and Appleton’s Prospect Refuge Theory of Landscape Settings (visual).

WHERE

audience

HOW settings

According to Kaplan (1998),natural settings can fil the mind and enhance restoration by permitting reflection of settings,sound patterns,motion,and intensity of forms and color. Small p“ ocket parks” help to reduce nearby noise and distractions by focusing one’s ability on things that don’t require special effort,yet are inviting and fascinating. Separation from distractions can be achieved for restorative benefits by offering settings that afford views of distant places and refocusing attentions. By providing views to the outdoors,it allows the mind to wander and detract from stressful thoughts while creating restorative focus and sense of wonder. The patients become engaged within their imaginations as they mentally escape to a w“ hole different world” as they imagine wandering in the space and encourage mental exploration of areas not seen within view (Kaplan,R.,Kaplan,S.,& Ryan,1998). Appleton’s (1996) Prospect Refuge Theory of Landscape Settings states that T“ o see without being seen involves utilization of environmental conditions that support biological survival and hence are a source of pleasure,” and suggest that visual (non-interactive) cues support the healing process as well as the interactive and kinesthetic cues.

The research gathered from the ten case studies from the 2010 Architectural Showcase indicated a strong tendency to utilize interactive and kinesthetic n“ ature” integration through the use of healing gardens, indoor natural vegetation and water features,light wells,and daylit atriums. A growing trend seems to be emerging within these new healthcare facilities to incorporate and experiment with visual n“ ature” integration through the use of simulated imagery as LED light panels, colorful wayfinding displays, paintings,and photographs,and also through apertures with extensive views out into the natural landscape.

By analyzing these n“ ature” techniques through the two lenses of Kaplan’s Theory of Restorative Settings and Appleton’s Prospect Refuge Theory,the results of the research affords the opportunity for further investigation into the correlation between intended health benefits and the actual restorative effects of specific n“ ature” implementations within the healing e n v i r o n m e n t .

SITEanalysis PLANNING and infrastructure graduate studies | 2011 site analysis,concept development, site design and development review Site planning is the art and science of designing places for human activities,usually for land parcels under a single ownership. The scale is smaller than that of public-sector land use planning,which deals with the overall pattern of towns,cities,and regions.

Requires a sophisticated understanding of how the built environment can be designed to support desired human activities for the full spectrum of users.

HILLCREST balfoort finnvold architecture architecture intern | 2009-2010 stuart residence | florida construction documents and interior finish design development

“This house was designed and built with a mid century modern influence...a clean vernacular of wall, glass, column. Floor to ceiling sliding glass walls allow spaces to transition easily from indoors to out. Structure is expressed through free standing exposed columns, and exposed concrete. The overall effect is a house that is open, airy, and inviting. Indoor and outdoor living overlap and intertwine seamlessly.�
