A RC H IT ECTU R E + D E S IG N PO RT FO L IO

hello. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m Beth Stevens - a recently qualified professional architect from South Africa, but in the UK I consider myself an experienced part II architectural assistant. I received my MArch at the University of Cape Town in 2013; and have since been living in Johannesburg and working for a small, award winning architectural practice called Office 24|7. I have a belief that architecture can be a powerful tool for social change. I would like to explore these ideas by continuing to work in a practice that deals with public architecture - whether that be through playful installations + activations; exhibition design; urban furniture; or more traditional public buildings and spaces. I believe strongly in design led detailing and attention to detail. I am particularly interested in re-adaption + heritage work, and find these conditions all the more interesting when paired with the particular brief requirements of a specific client. I have been fortunate to have the opportunity to travel to the Americas recently; where my husband and I spent 2.5 months exploring New York; Chile; Bolivia and Peru before relocating to the UK. During this time, particularly while looking down on Machu Piccu city from above, I was reaffirmed in my belief that architecture and space are the tool through which cultures form themselves and collect memory. I have a renewed sense of responsibility to ensure that my contribution in this field will impact positively on the city fabric for generations to come. It is with this conviction that I enter the job market in London.

PROJECT DETAILS: As the brainchild of Kgosi (King) Pilane, the cultural precinct aims to be a world class museum of traditional knowledge celebrating and archiving the cultural heritage of the Bakgatla-ba-Kgafela people. Two heritage buildings, the Dutch Reformed Church (1889) and the original Osense School (1937) were restored and a narrative between the two created using landscaping. The provision of new facilities in the way of two toilet blocks frees up the heritage buildings to be used as public exhibition spaces. AWARDS: > PIA (Pretoria Institute of Architects) merit award 2015; and PIA award for best public project 2015. > Finalist in Loeries communications award 2015 > SAIA (South African Institute for Architects) commendation 2016 > Long listed for World Interior News annual competition in the museum/ exhibition space category 2016.

> detailed and oversaw the construction of the temporary fossil exhibition gallery > completed, snagged, and designed the signage for the virtual lab > did the concept and initial phase for the experience lab > prepared tender documents up to SACAP (South African Council for the Architectural Profession ) stage 3 (design development) for the main exhibition > over-saw the hominin house project from conception to completion.

PROJECT DETAILS: Located within the cradle of humankind, the Maropeng Museum is one of the most important and well-visited museums in South Africa. Situated in close proximity to the Sterkfontein Caves where the famous Australopithecus Africanus fossils of “Mrs Ples” and “Little Foot” were discovered; as well as the site of the newly discovered Homo Naledi; the museum looks at the evolution of the human species as told through archaeological finds. The current precinct consists of a museum and conference center; school boarding house; boutique hotel; and vast landscape. Through reconfiguration of the rigid museum building, a new Fossil Exhibition Gallery for the display of new or interesting fossil finds to international conservation standards was provided. A new Virtual Laboratory showcases the work of a proprietor slowly uncovering a fossil from Breccia. This lab will eventually be surrounded by an experience lab where children can act out the steps of an archaeological mission. A complete overhaul of the museum is also currently underway. The boarding house was updated to continue the learning experience. A series of green building systems and information panels that explain these systems were put in place – extending the theme of “where do we come from” to “where do we go from here.”

PROJECT DETAILS: The renovation of an existing 1970s 138mÂ˛ apartment in suburban Johannesburg was conceptualised and completed within 8 months in 2015. A complete overhaul of the interior spaces was necessary to create a greater sense of depth, height and light in the west facing flat. Structural concrete columns and service ducts restricted the opening of the interior and resulted in a rhythmic row of a vertical columns as one enters the apartment. The openings to the balcony are made larger with new aluminium sliding doors. Existing steel framed windows flanking the balcony are treated with cabinetry to give a greater sense of depth and square off the interior spaces. A new, customised steel cabinet acts as a room divider without restricting the incoming light. The existing parquet is stained charcoal to work with the Nordic style interior. Light oak, white and Bianco carara marble are used throughout for a muted palette that flows seamlessly from room to room.

> brief development in conjunction with the client, exhibition contractors and graphic designers > architectural conceptualisation of exquiset corpse concept > investigation and research into materiality > refining architectural drawings to suit budget constraints > producing all technical drawings and documentation for the production and construction teams.

PROJECT DETAILS: 2016 marks the 20th anniversary of the South African constitution. As a celebration of this milestone, the Nelson Mandela Centre of Memory (NMCM) curated an exhibition that would celebrate our country’s progressive constitution. The concept was to interview 20x20 year olds representing South Africa’s diverse demographics, expressing their views on the constitution and the rights enshrined therein and speaking about whether they felt that they had access to those rights in 2016. The architectural response was to create an ‘exquisite corpse’ of the interviewees using their silhouettes with key quotes from their interview footage. These stacks would be made from plastic crates -an easily available, cheap, demountable material that relates strongly to youth culture in South Africa. The stacks can be arranged in a space (in/ outdoor) as if in conversation with one another or grouped around a monitor playing the full interviews in a loop.

YEAR: 2014 COLLABORATION: Homairah Munsami, Mikara Naidoo; Gabrielle Aquadro; Soyiso Sihlali PROJECT DETAILS: The brief for this 24 hour international competition was to create “A Home for My Dog.” It required an A3 poster describing the design and particular dog chosen to house, as well as a video exploring the process of the design. Our design was based on the typical ‘township dog’ – a mixed breed dog common in South Africa’s informal settlements as a stray. Scientifically referred to as the Africanus, this type of dog typically inhabits contested spaces, feeding off of scraps and rubbish. The design therefore proposed a safe space for the dog to mark as its own within the harsh township environment, through a sustainable and organic sculptural form. http://www.if-ideasforward.com/#!ahouse-for-my-dg/rymb5 AWARDS: > third place in international Ideas Forward 24 hour competition (first edition) ROLE: > involved in all aspects of the conception of the competition entry from brainstorming to production > compiled the isometric drawings seen on the poster entry > created a stop motion film that described the design process.

PROJECT DETAILS: This year long Masters in Architecture project was an investigation into the ability for architecture to address critical urban problems in South Africa. In 2011, SA had the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s highest death rate. This, combined with rapid urbanisation, means that many city cemeteries have/ are about to run out of space. Questioning existing cultural practices and their implications on physical area, the project finds its programme in a new cemetery type in Langa, a predominantly amaXhosa township in Cape Town. Burial is still preferred with cremation being seen as taboo. Therefore the project aims to set up a framework that preempts the shift from traditional burial to higher density methods, necessitated by space limitations. Using landscape urbanism as a framework, the project addresses the potential of the ground plane to prepare the site for the future use; incorporating ideas of memory intrinsic to the functioning of a cemetery.

c a. burial: Burial takes place in one of 3 high density forms â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in retaining wall structures filled with soil (2), mausoleums (1), and niche walls (3). Mourners gather on a raised communal platform before proceeding to the burial site before proceeding to the opposite platform and exiting onto the main path.

b. arrival: Pedestrian (5) and vehicular (4) movement is separated. To the right of the pedestrian route a hollow brick wall separates the road for the hearse. To the left a planted wall softens the experience, while having the dual function of acting as a carbon/ natural filter for the mausoleums.

c. revisiting: Revisiting (6) is done from the side of the retaining wall structures making the experience different from that of burial (which is done from the top). The intentional separation of rituals aims to disassociate the pain of loss from the joy of remembrance. masters in architecture 2013 | 48

> Original concept design > Led team of 3 peers to develop the project into a full set of council and working drawings to comply with new regulations brought in by the South African Bureau of Standards in 2011.

PROJECT DETAILS: The design for a resource centre in Philippe East, Cape Town, was a university Honours degree project. Run over a full semester with the theme of education, the brief was based on a campaign by Equal Education, an NGO that calls for every South African school to have one library and one librarian. The project programme is a school library and computer centre in Philippe East (an informal settlement about 22km from the city centre of Cape Town); located on grounds belonging to the Department of Education. Noting the flat terrain of Philippe East (being located on the Cape Flats), the concept was to create a landmark in the landscape. It also sought to reconfigure the ground immediately around the new building to create a more tactile environment with soft and sloped spaces. The initial concept design was developed into a full set of council and working drawings as a secondary project during the term in partnership with 3 peers.

YEAR: 2013 COLLABORATION: Ivan McCarthy Peens PROJECT DETAILS: In order to raise funds for our masters class tour to Istanbul, I volunteered to organise a fund raising exhibition and silent auction based on the idea of the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;night of 1000 drawingsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. The exhibition was a combination of work donated by architects and artists in Cape Town (Jo Noero, Liza Grobelaar, Porky Heffer, StudioMAS CT to name a few); as well as graphical work produced by the M.Arch class relating to individual thesis topics. The work was auctioned to the highest bidder in a silent auction system. The evening raised in excess of R50 000 and was one of the biggest contributors to the tour fund. The event has since become an annual function hosted by the masters class at UCT. ROLE: > head curator > managed a group of 21 of my peers (those going on the tour) > assigned tasks that were most suited to individual personalities, as well as assigning groups that would work well together. > Publicity, catering, curating, mounting, packaging and delivery were amongst the tasks that were successfully carried out.

“Beth has worked in my office as a candidate architect since March 2014. She is a highly skilled thinking architect who dedicates herself fully to the task at hand. Her work in my office demonstrates her ability to engage methodically and critically in the design process of architecture. She is a thinker and a designer with a strong interest in socio-urban issues. Beth’s skills are diverse and unusual in the way she straddles design, theory and practice. She works hard, is methodical and extremely efficient. She has a strong mind for research. She has the ability to work both independently and collectively, has strong communication, presentation and writing skills and is self motivated.” -Nabeel Essa, former employer

“I would rate her top 3 in her MArch dissertation class of 37 students. Her work in design has shown a steady improvement over the years and concluded with an excellent MArch dissertation project that explored the potential of a large-scale spatial programme (cemetery) in creating a sensitive but radical stage for social and cultural becoming in the neglected terrain of Langa township in Cape Town. Beth drove her research largely through her own interest in landscape urbanism and was able to command its key ideas and instrumentalise them into the physical manifestation of the project. Her work, whether in design or through writing, is of an excellent standard and her self-motivation and interest in architecture, urbanism and the world is exemplary” -Prof Nic Coetzer, thesis supervisor Associate Professor, University of Cape Town e: nic.coetzer@uct.ac.za | t: +27 21 650 3705
