AN INTERVIEW, WITH CLAUDE

Tell us abit about yourself.

“Well, I have always had a keen interest in Design, Technology, and Structure. In Primary School I would always build crafts and reassemble objects with my hands. I then got introduced to Draughting & Civil Technology in High School by Mr Labuschagne & Mr Smith where I learnt the skill of technical hand drawing & construction principles. Taking on the responsibility of the spatial & physical ‘safe-keeping’ of people is what drives me. I have recently completed my Master’s degree and I am currently awaiting to graduate in April 2023”

Who is your favouite Architect?

“My favourite Architect is Mies van der Rohe. I am fascinated by his interior/ exterior philosophy and his use of glass and horizontal planes which he explores in his floor plans.”

“Architecture is the will of an epoch translated into space.” - Mies van der Rohe

How do you work in a team?

“I enjoy speaking up and communcating with my peers, I am strict and hold every action accountable, including my own. I listen and understand before contributing my ideas and take initiative.”

What type Architecture interests you?

“I am interested in a mixed-use typology of Architecture. It ranges from small private to large public scale projects. Be it residential to commercial to healthcare buildings.”

What is your greatest strength as an architect?

“My greatest strength is my ability to create a finished product from a sketch, from modelling to designing to technical drawing.”

What is your design process?

“My design process consists of writing, sketching, and research. Once I feel commited to the idea I can then work digitally through form-making. The programme must be decided through exercises of mapping and analysis.”

* These are skills that I am allowing room for growth, & working on to be improved

JOBURG: SOCIAL ISSUES

My intervention is placed in a site that is a scarred landscape as it creates a division between the members of the community. Many of them suffer from respiratory and cardiovascular diseases, and the community also has a list of social issues such as violence, drugs, crime, which is looked down upon.

URBAN

I am focusing on the pedestrian movement between a non-functioning railway track. My intervention uses urban design principles and creates a passage for the pedestrians, and on either side of the passage is a building. One for social change and another that addresses the medical conditions.

SENSE OF PLACE

The creation of places to establish a balance between body and mind for overall health and wellness. This gives access to nature, physical activity, balanced nutrition, clean air, safe spaces, and social interactions (Cushing et al., Miller, 2020).

JOBURG: CLIMATE ISSUES

The community is adjacent to two large mine dumps over 50m in height. According to the results of a HEAD study, Riverlea has a wide range of social, environmental and health problems. Riverlea residents were found to have high levels of chronic illness such as asthma, diabetes and hypertension.

WELLNESS SOLUTION

By using Salutogenic Design, I am proposing that the community needs to change their sense of place. My intervention has spaces that allow for social gatherings to happen, it brings the community together through their culture and these social spaces also get translated into the clinic by creating waiting areas. This creates a peaceful and safe environment for the patients.

Urban Street Edge for the Public BREATHABLE SPACE

My first step was to create a thoroughfare. I started off mapping the desire lines along the site, this informed me about pedestrian movement, as many of the community members walk across the non-functioning railway.

By creating this walkway for the pedestrians it promotes safety and overall health. The urban street edge provides a waiting space for the public.

FROM THE STREET

The Ground Floor Plan (next page) allows for an urban edge to be created and this in turn creates a soft entrance towards the south for the community to have east access. The entrance is visible from down the street and connects with the community.

The same principle is applied to the north and this entrance creates a gateway for the pedestrians who are crossing the non-functioning railway line.

PRIVATE MEDICAL COURTYARD

This idea of courtyard space links to the salutogenic design as it allows for a relaxing space where patients can sit, and wait for their appointments, this allows them to socialize so that they can keep the community together despite the health contaminants.

The space also functions as a tea garden, the patients can feel safe in the core and can get healing properties from the sunlight.

TECHNICAL SYSTEM

The construction section is a perimeter section of the clinic which shows that it is a simple concrete frame structure with down stand beans and brick infill. The exterior brick walls are FBS with a 50 mm cavity and triple skin wall. It also shows the service yard which has an accessible drain for water run-

off to wash away any dust contaminants into the municipal sewage system.

The whole system works in a way that reduces the dust emissions where the walls can stay clean, but also provide for social interaction between the patients and members of the community.

TITLE

Rowhousing for Families and Students

LOCATION

Orange Grove, Johannesburg

TYPE

Residential & Mixed-Use

CONCEPT

The students will interact with the kids and business owners, thus creating a cycle of inspiration for the student to start a business

The building follows a linear form and a rectangular envelope with a public yard to the front of the homeschool and a private yard to the rear of the retail spaces.

The ground floor has educational and retail spaces which include a café, homeschool, playground, outdoor cinema, workshop, studio, bookstore, internet lounge, study rooms, gaming lounge, laundromat, public kitchen for community outreach and convenience store.

MASSING

This programme was selected to provide every basic need for the resident. Allowing for social and economic spaces. There is also a circulation zone that allows for each shop to be connected to eachother.

The first floor and above has accommodation for students, and families with up to 2 children. There is a rentable unit in the south and the idea is to allow the business owner who owns the shop at ground floor to also make money by renting out that unit. There are balconies on the north to allow for communal spaces.

SUSTAINABILITY

The main idea is to take the dividing walls of the row house and create double spaces where individuality is not needed, so that the spaces flow into each other, deconstructing the row house typology.

STAIRCASE EXTENDS UP SO THAT KIDS ALSO ALLOWS FOR WALLS TO GET

My building is also sustainable because it has a water tank that collects water and feed the utility room and the bathroom in the rentable unit. Because the unit is facing south I had to create a void that allows for light into the space, I conducted a solar study and found that light does penetrate the space during summer solistice where the sun is at 87 degrees. There is also a planter to make the space feel more open, it has plants that are evergreen and grow in the shade.

To celebrate movement through the principles of Entrance and Approach

The approach to the entrance starts at the ramp & moves straight through the public space on a celebrated walkway. While the user is on the plinth they are attractedby the cafe and can enter straight in the middle. The straight lines and angles provide a sense of direction to the user.

The site is situated between two neigbourhoods: Plumstead and Wittebomme. Both of these neigbourhoods are divided by South Rd, which has an intesection at each side. My building is located at the intersection. There is a railway line & station, meaning it is a highly pedestrianized zone. My building will be a welcome point at this intersection, focusing on the approach of the entrances.

CONCEPT

To celebrate the identity of the Bo-Kaap facade and street culture

The Site is in the neighbourhod of Bo-Kaap, a place known for its rich Cape Malay culture, however during recent years it has become a victim of ‘Gentrification’.

In the Bo-Kaap the Front Facades plays a major role It acts as an identity to the families living in the homes. My concept aims to keep the same individual ‘Identity’ within each home, by:

• Using materials instead of paint

• Developing depth within the Facade

• Using square elements from the traditonal facades

This allows the new modern building to fit into the old context by respecting its Cultural Identity of the Front Facade.

FACADE STREET FRONTAGE

The Front Facade is the most important facade because it provides ‘frontage’ to the street, which is an important factor to the Culture in Bo-Kaap. It is full of ‘streets’ & not ‘roads’, and are filled with people walking and playing, & the buildings Frontage allows them to gather around it.

This is important in the culture of the Bo Kaap because it allows for neighbours to be interactive, while also watching out for other people such as tourists.

TECHNICAL SYSTEM

My building will have a system of a concrete frame structure with downstand beams that are 330mm deep. This structure will be included only on the Basement, Ground, and First Floors.

The upper floors will be steel framework structure including the beams and the floor slab. Lastly, the building will have a lightweight steel roof.

Within the basement floor there are punctures for daylight, ventilation, and visual connection. These punctures are created in a steel floor system with a timber deck for a softer warmer feel. A retaining wall with a 50mm cavity is supporting the basement.

TITLE VILLA Y3

LOCATION

Cheng Du, China

TYPE

High-end Residential Private

CLIENT

The CEO of Mercedes Benz and his family. This is his youngest daughter’s house, Villa Y3. I was apart of the the Initial Design Conept phase.

INTERIOR VIEW

In this drawing I had to add materials to the floor and walls, choose the best suited furniture styles and create layouts, including lighting and art on the walls. I also had to model in the ceiling and steps using AutoDesk Revit and LumiOn.

PRESENTATION ELEVATION

In this drawing I had to add people, shadows, texture of materials, furniture, dimensions, levels, vegetation, labels, model in walls and glazing, and adjust the level of depth settings in order to make the drawing look presentable, using AutoDesk Revit.

AREA FLOOR PLAN

In this drawing I had to calculate the sq. m area of each of the rooms, create a schedule with different colours and calculate the total.

FRONT ELEVATION PERSPECTIVE RENDER

In this drawing I had to design the canopy elements as well as a small part of the house. This was done with my design proposals and then consulted with the senior archicect whom I was working under. He would review my designs and after this process I would model it in AutoDesk Revit.

PRESENTATION FLOOR PLAN

In this drawing I had to model in walls, columns, stair cases, balconies, glazing, doors, and windows. I had to put in gridlines and dimension them, add furniture layouts and label each room of the Villa. I had to also add all other elements such as landscaping and cars. Lastly i had to adjust the display setting in order to make the drawing presentable, and print out views on PDF format, using AutoDesk Revit.
