“K.I.S.S. Keep it simple stupid.” - Prof. Peter Land .
This high-rise proposal (100 Stories / Height 475m = 1558 ft.) maximizes the wind flow around the column shaped form. Directing lateral wind loads seamlessly around the building, while capturing the energy that is produced by these forces. The tower is supported by a diagrid structure joined together by prefabricated steel nodes. The diagrid system was used to take the lateral loads, minimize use of structural steel and allow for a smaller core. Openings in each floor plate, spiral up the building, acting as “chimneys,” caring light and ventilation through the building. A double skin facade is used, leaving room for 140 vertical axis turbine deflector-units (that generate around 28,000kWh per day). Electronically opening and closing depending on the direction of the wind.
ADAPTIVE USE 03 Professor Peter Landon & Bryant Pitak Project Type CBD Studio 4 Person Group Project Time Spring 2014 Place Garfield Park, IL
Adaptive Use is the reutilization of a building or structure for a new function. It is the imaginative effort of bringing a building back to life by changing its use.

Plan View
The question was: how can we reuse, but make new this historical industrial landmark? By connecting local businesses in the Kinzie Industrial Corridor, academic institutions, and receiving funding from the U.S. government to build an advanced manufacturing facility in Chicago, the “GIM” concept was born. The goal being to adapt a building, while limiting C02 emissions, creating jobs, and a new manufacturing industry. Therefore, the “Green Industry Market” was the natural evolution after analyzing all of the systems and scales at play. Let’s go to the GIM?!
1. a catalyst for future Industry & Technology. 2. a new model for Education & Manufacturing. 3. a facility emerging from the Past & arriving in the Future. The Outcome: Green Industry Market

Sound Decibel Section Study
An investigation of the material qualities and properties of concrete.
The objective of this project was to create particular sound sensory experiences for each bath typology (HOT = compressed, COLD = open, WARM = transitional). Using different surface shapes, the sound reflections and vibrations are specific to the temperature and therapeutic qualities of each bathing experience.

This project was a collaborative effort amongst four team members. My contribution being: researching urban agriculture, adapting the existing building, aquaponics techniques, energy systems, detailing, project management, and designing a vertical element to be used for indoor gardening, research and education. The vertical greenhouse that resulted, provides an ideal environment for showcasing - by floor - specific indoor gardening techniques. REAL CLIENT.
