VANCOUVER KINETIC ARCHITECTURE 2013 Narrowed Waters is a kinetic roof pond that puts a passive thermal conditioning strategy in motion in the British Columbian desert. The name “Narrowed Waters” comes from the meaning of the site location, “Osoyoos”. This name also reflects how water is used in the project - it is taken in to the building, cycled through the kinetic element, and released back into the landscape. The design intent is to create a moving roof pond system that passively conditions a 1000 sq ft space within a visitor center in Osoyoos, British Columbia. The resulting architectural element, a series of glass bars filled with water, responds to the Canadian desert context with a dynamic gesture. This system will allow an occupant to regulate and normalize the temperature within the interior of their enclosure by collecting, radiating, and purging heat from the space. A two part system uses the energy of falling water and the energy of human operators to power two synchronized gestures connecting visitors to the landscape. Twenty-two individual water bars, made of glass and aluminum, make up the kinetic thermal mass system. The motion of the system is fueled by the river, enhancing the interaction between the built and natural environments.

SITE The city of Osoyoos, British Columbia, is flanked by Anarchist Mountain and the Okanagan Highland and the Cascade Mountains The lake sits like a hidden gem in the British Columbian desert.

THERMAL MASS 101 In summer, a roof pond cools the building using a shading insulator, or â&#x20AC;&#x153;shinsulator,â&#x20AC;? to reflect solar energy away from the roof pond and minimize heat absorbed. At night, the shinsulator is retracted to allow the roof pond to release heat to the exterior. In winter, the system will heat the building by absorbing solar energy during the day with the shinsulator retracted. At night, the shinsulator is repositioned over the pond to retain heat and radiate into the building.

I N C U BATO R S PAC E INTELLIGENT SKINS FOR INTELLIGENT BUILDINGS MILWAU KEE, WI An intelligent building skin is the primary line of defense against the elements, but it can also be the first line of energy gathering and utilization. This design for an â&#x20AC;&#x153;incubator spaceâ&#x20AC;? is a building in which ideas are generated, new products are developed, and visitors are invited to share in the experience of the creative process. The interactive garden wall and solar skin allow occupants to also share in the living building experience. The solar panel speckled pattern on the building changes with its orientation to the sun to maximize energy harvesting and shading capabilities. Within the solar exterior lies a picturesque vertical garden along the interior walls. The garden helps to condition the space by absorbing toxic chemicals and producing oxygen. The garden wall can also help to cool the space on hot summer days. Panels on the exterior are fully operable to allow for natural ventilation of the circulation space. The organic flowing form of the building represents the flow and regeneration of new ideas.

THE SCALE WALL MICROCOSM DESIGN STUDIO HI HAT LOUNGE - MILWAU KEE, WI

The Scale Wall stretches the material properties of aluminum and wood. These typically two dimensional, rigid building materials are transformed into a three dimensional glowing wave over the lower bar at the Hi Hat Lounge. In October 2010, Leslie Montemurro and Scott Johnson, owners of the Hi Hat Lounge on Milwaukee’s Eastside, gave Studio Innov8 (a team of eight ambitious undergraduate students) the opportunity to embark on an entrepreneurial venture to experiment, manipulate, and create a unique architectural element to adorn their space. The first phase of the project involved an in-depth material exploration - primarily of the aluminum cladding “scales”. Once an appropriate texture was decided on, a scripted pattern was manipulated to create a wave effect using the custom plywood bracing system. Finally, the attachment of the scales to the bracing was achieved by a custom set of sliding brackets to allow for design flexibility during on-site installation. Studio Innov8 completed all phases of the project from conceptual design and fabrication through final installation at the Hi Hat. The project was contracted to be a temporary installation and was in place at the Hi Hat Lounge January 2011 - September 2012.

CABO VERDE RESIDENCE STUDY ABROAD & DESIGN STUDIO CABO VERDE, AFRICA 2010

The approach taken in this design is centered around the family environment that is so strong in Cabo Verdian households. Each day the family would begin the day together and end the day together with meals, socialization, celebrating, and dancing. Since Cabo Verde is a primarily import driven country with Praia as one of the main ports,the home uses shipping containers as a readily available and recycled building material. The modules formed by the containers revolve around the central core of the home, which is a dynamic indoor/outdoor living area that provides gathering space and a garden wall to grow food. Natural ventilation and vertical garden walls help cool the home in the hot equatorial climate. 1. Study abroad- the Cabo Verde 2011 program focused on four main issues: water, food, waste, and energy. During the trip, each student lived with a host family in various neighborhoods of Praia, Cabo Verde. Our mission was to document our impressions of how these critical issues were dealt with in lowincome and/or unplanned neighborhoods like my host neighborhood, Kobon. 2. Design Studio- upon returning home from the beautiful islands of Cabo Verde, each student was tasked to design a more ecologically responsible home for their host family; using mostly passive design solutions due to the limitations on the island. Students also participated in design-build projects and design charettes to explore ideas about how sustainability could be achieved on a third world budget.

CENTENNIAL MILLS UNITY CENTER P O R T L A N D ,

O R

The Centennial Mills Unity Center is a housing development + community center which seeks to pay homage to the history of the site and the mill industry by maintaining the historic integrity of the existing buildingsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; unique elements. The structure and form of the original flour mill building are kept in tact along with the iconic water tower, which can be seen from various locations along Portlandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s waterfront. Other elements â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the grain silo and a crane that reaches outward across the Willamette River Greenway and extends towards the river are maintained and incorporated into the community garden on site. Mixed-income housing provides opportunity to create a diverse community of Portlandians who respect their city, environment, and fellow inhabitants. The residents are invited to utilize the amenities provided by the community center and be integrated into the microneighborhood of the new Centennial Mills Development, as well as embrace their macro-neighborhood of the Pearl District on the North waterfront.
