Nestled in the serene Labrador Hollow near Tully, NY, this community center uniquely fuses architectural innovation with the area's natural beauty. It features two volumes: a larger one for communal activities, a melting pot for hikers and hang-gliders, and a tranquil private sleeping cabin. The smaller volume houses equipment storage, a gym, and a yoga space. Architecturally striking, these volumes are supported by a robust structure on a hill's edge, with a void space between them serving as a gateway for hang gliders. The ornamental facade integrates window placement and extends upward to create a rooftop camping area. A distinctive feature is the roof with a hole aligning with the void, symbolizing the exhilaration of flight. This center celebrates nature, adventure, and architectural elegance, connecting the view with the landscape in a harmonious design.

Confronted with a view of the river circulation is pushed to the side for an incessant scenery for the residents and visitors / The private spaces are stacked on top a more public ground level multi-purpose space with interruption of public roof gardens on each floor to blur public & private / Consistent room typologies through the building allowed for a sense of equity among the residents, as no room is better than the other.

First floor plan

Ground floor plan

The house is an attempt to combine the ideas of environmental integration, user interaction and division of space into limited area implied with the constraints of a micro-home. A rent-able lodge for nomads, artists and tourists alike, this home separates public and private by floor, demonstrated through the dominance of windows and views on the first level, and sun roofs on the second floor. The structure itself consists of a cement core, wood framing and stilts which bear the cantilevered upper mass. The house is meant to adapt to the temperamental climate of Syracuse, using sun exposure, insulation, angled roofing, and cross-elevation ventilation as passive strategies.

Roof expriences live load such as snow during winter months. Heavy rain can also provide live load on the building’s roof. Humans, furniture and other movable objects are also consider to be live loads.

Dead loads are already present vertical loads of the existing building structure, which is mainly caused by gravity.

Secondary structure: Provides structure but isn’t curcial to the buildings structural integrity like how the mullions here are highlighted as they provide structure for the window panels, but not the building.

Lateral loads such as wind forces and seismic activities are dynamic forces that will affect the stability of the building. Although Syracuse, NY don’t get any seismic activities. The winter winds can be very harsh.

Normal forces is force exerted by the ground on the building which is in reaction to all the forces the building exert on the ground. Action and Reaction.

Circulation cores (staircase / elevators) are pushed next to the pre-existing building, allowing important programs (rooms) to be facing the west to get ample ventilation / natural light.

Prevailing winds for both summer and winter usually come from the west and South west. My building is confronted with alot of prevailing wind due to the fact that it is at the edge of the dense urban fabric. One can imagine the huge amount of wind expreinced infront of the building.

However, for people coming into the building from the Northeast and North side of the building will feel the least amount of wind, making this entrance the optimal entrance to the building. Wind shadows can be found on the North and Northeast side of the building, providing a place of calm,

Building form is very compact, which allows for heat to be retained during Syracuse’s harsh winter months. The tiny slots of windows was a design choice to maintain the compactness yet provide natural lighting and ventilation/ wind for summer months.

Overhangs to block un-wanted sun in the summer months. 48.27°

The building is facing west where most of the wind comes from all seasons, making this a not very ideal situation during the winter months. However, since all openings are facing west, it provides cooling during the hot summer months. Additionally, the vertical circulation provide pathway for hot air to get trapped in the top, making it much more cool for the occupants.

Glasses are frosted, allowing diffused lights to enter the building. However, terrace space allows for direct lights for the occupants.

Terrace space 3 levels of the building allow for people to have access to natural light and the environment. At the same time, the form is much more consolidated and compact, as it is necessary for harsh Syracuse winters. Nonetheless, small window slits in each room allow for natural light to penetrate through each room.

Overhangs: The very prominent features of my building, which are the extended floor plates that extend out to create overhangs are very beneficial for both season. The overhangs keep unwatned solar radiation from coming inside the building when the altidue is high compare to winter season. And during the winter season, the low sun altidue won’t be affected by the overhangs as the solar radiation will seep through windows and glass panels to keep the interior warm and comfortable.

This project aims to reconstruct the vibrant social space of Portland’s African American community while also creating affordable and sustainable housing infrastructure. The design welcomes the community by facilitating the convergence of the four surrounding landmarks — Legacy Emanuel Hospital, Matt Dishman Community Center, Unthank Plaza, and Lillis Albina Park — through two connective corridors that cut diagonally across the site and engage with the existing public transportation. In an effort to support the thriving historically Black community in the area, the project incorporates ample community space, street-side local retail, and business incubation. Because of 45-degree rotation of the mass, each unit receives sufficient daylighting, which, in conjunction with the green roofs, enable a more sustainable and healthy building. Residential spaces are designed to bring the community together through a gradient of interactions, dedicated communal balconies and terraces, ‘pockets’ that act as walk-ups to the units in the hallways, and balconies that overlook the courtyard.
