TAYLOR BISSERT AUDREY HESSON PROJECT 4 | ANDERSON MILL MANUFACTURING & CAREER CENTER In the current state of the world, housing is becoming a commodity. Unfortunately, all people need housing, but not all can afford to put a roof over their head. Specifically, in Anderson, South Carolina, there is an issue of education attainment, not only the associated earnings, but how this directly contributes to access and affordability. The premise is to address the need for affordable housing and a desire to create self-sustaining individuals with an education. By taking advantage of the educational aspects, skills, and community interaction that come from the process of building, we aim to give people access to not only produce a tangible product - housing, but an intangible one in knowledge. The concept of this project stems from the process of assembly and collaboration. Architecture is derived from the Greek word arkhitekton - “Chief Builder.” The Chief Builder was one who was responsible for both the process and the product. Through its concept, this project works to engage the community in aspects of the design and the build process, of not only their own home, but of the Manufacturing Center itself. In collaboration, a variety of trained community and general community members blur the boundary between separated disciplines and individuals. This pragmatic approach takes advantage of natural archetypes that can be physically well-built and functional, while allowing people to directly observe how their work forms part of a meaningful accomplishment. The combination of concrete and technical steel aspects offers the opportunity to combine the processes and products of architecture allowing people to invest in their environment and sense of place. The physical manifestation of building allows for self-actualization, social identity, and well-being to be produced through interactions with the material world. This leads to the conviction that everyone’s well-being is intertwined.

MICHAEL HORAN COLE ROBINSON PROJECT 5 | THE HEART OF ANDERSON Anderson, South Carolina is an archetypal example of the southeastern mill town. Its three mills were once the thriving heart of the city with its instigation of purpose for its community through work. Soon after these mills were opened, neighborhoods sprouted around them with markets and recreational facilities supporting comradery between its community members. This brings us to our key concept of integrating the two branches of a healthy life style: work and recreation. As these two integrate with one another, a third branch is created: This branch is the heart of Anderson, a center for community gathering. These three elements of work, recreation and community are sprinkled throughout the site, blending the changing topography with the building while mixing the various program elements with one another. Our opportunity was to create various experiences for people to enjoy community together. The site presented a unique design challenge. With a 15 foot grade change from the south of the site at Jefferson Street, to the North at the rail way, we chose to dig into the site in order to take advantage of ADA accessibility, programmatic needs and interior, exterior connections. Those various spaces incorporate public and private courtyard, as well as places of outdoor recreation. The building form allows us to program several exterior courtyards. The large public courtyard serves as an extension of the recreation space and a connection between the community and building. Intending to act as a large gathering space and informal stadium with the terraced seating. It was important for us for the building to not just be a backdrop rather it literally opens itself up to the community.

JOSHUA GUERTIN KELLY UMUTONI PROJECT 6 | APPLETON [HARVEST] The collapse of the Anderson Mill left an abandoned site that divides the Alphabet Streets neighborhood. Over the years, the scar has grown, so much so that the once thriving mill village now lacks affordable food and grocery options. Through a design that explores exposure, transparency, and reciprocity, the proposed Appleton [Harvest] project will stand at the crossroads of education and high-tech production, while promoting healthy living. The United Nations estimates that 70% of 9.8 billion humans will live in cities by 2050. As a result, humans will depend even more on the agricultural countryside to feed growing urban populations. The Appleton [Harvest] project combines the high-tech values of Post-Human Architecture with the design strategies of Ecological Urbanism to transform the Appleton Mill site into a Productive Landscape. A Productive Landscape is a concept that integrates agriculture into the fabric of a city, which typically focuses on re-purposing deserted sites to connect the urban to the rural. Appleton [Harvest] will employ over 100 people. Community members in the technical education program will be trained to work as operators on Solar Panel Assembly lines. The Food Hub will generate positions for cooks, dishwashers, and service staff. In house tech start-ups and non-profits will offer intern positions for the local youth. Volunteer positions will also be available on the Farm, Bike Shop, and Laundromat. Appleton [Harvest] will unite the community through food and learning. By coupling hi-tech energy production and agriculture, the site will supply the community with a space to cultivate a sustainable network to navigate a rapidly advancing industry. By investing in sustainable design and technologies, the Appleton [Harvest] project will improve education, employment, accessibility, health, and connectivity in the Anderson community.

MASON BLACKWELL GRAY DITTENHAUSER PROJECT 7 | CUT/PREP/SHIP Workers of the old mill who were the foundation of the city of Anderson, many with names redacted and forgotten. Current community made of other people still living in the same houses but in a much worse state. Many homes are dilapidated to the point of condemnation drawing hundreds of dollars on utilities alone trapping residents in the community, many homeless and without work. This is a majority of the community and we do not want them to be lost and forgotten about. Our housing approach works around the Sim[PLY] system of houses built from pieces cut from standard 4’x8’ plywood. From that basis of community growth through housing education, we will move into the architectural solution for the problem. First is the site development. Our proposal sits to the north of the site with incoming supplies at the north and prepped pieces leaving at the south of the building. To the west is a space allotted to test building designs on site to teach others how the system produced in the building is assembled. Lastly, we take advantage of the existing mill building shell to allow for a green space to connect the incoming community to the production building. The concept for the project was to break the program up into three distinct spaces based on the stages of production: CUT, PREP, + SHIP. We then began designating zones within each of the three spaces. These zones would each house different processes related to the production of Sim[PLY]. All of this effort continues in a cycle with the main link from beginning to end being the community. A need for better housing and condition of living drives the production flow so that in the end the community may grow and prosper from community effort.

CHARLOTTE FLEISHEL ARTHUR SOUTHERN PROJECT 8 | MILL INFILLED Mill infilled aims to recover what has been seen as waste – an abandoned mill site and used plastics – to benefit the neighborhood. The building acts as a “bridge” between two previously separated residential areas with a linear form and ramping pedestrian path stretching across the long edge of the building between two ends of the site. The rest of the site is planned as a continuation of the surrounding street grids for future sim[PLY] homes. On the first floor, recycled plastic is given a second life through a large scale industrial process – plastic waste is reformed into a sheet good that can be used in residential applications as an alternative to ceramic. The second floor houses a space for locals to bring their own plastic waste, turn it into a raw material, and create their own products using high tech machines. With two existing residential neighborhoods to the east and west, the abandoned Appleton mill site forces a divide. To the north of the building the majority of the land has been returned to the neighborhoods, allowing for infill of new homes. Integrated amenities include a linear park space, a soccer field, a playground, and finally, the pedestrian bridge space. With the building in the middle of the site, we’ve designated the north side of the site as more public, and south to remain undeveloped, preserving the wooded SITEarea, and reusing the retention pond from the original mill. To further take advantage of the large amount of space, we’re using PUBLIC PROGRAM that undeveloped land for geothermal wells.

CAMERON FOSTER RICHARD MOORE PROJECT 9 | RE-POWERING THE ELECTRIC CITY The vacant sites of prior cotton mills in Anderson, SC have left the surrounding neighborhoods in hardship with little opportunity to grow. Almost overnight this community changed from a prosperous locality to one stricken with poverty and fear with little support from the outside. This project is intended to give value back to the Alphabet streets and revitalize the local economy through new employment opportunities as well as education of local trades, healthy lifestyle, and social support service. Utilizing sustainable energy as a driving element for this project, the goal is to provide clean local energy for a neglected community by bringing the power back to the people through biomass methods. The aim of the project is fourfold; to maximize the amount of clean energy produced by the building, to provide sustainable services to the city, to serve as a desirable space for workers and the general public, and to give value to the people of this community. This generation of clean energy on a site surrounded by residential homes is intended to confront the stigma that a traditional power plant has created for communities in recent projects and provide an economic hub for the community. The site will not only serve as a major employment center for the community but also a hub for teaching, learning, and socializing. In conclusion, the goal is to re-empower the people of Anderson by giving value back to the community. This can be achieved through transparency to the overall process of what biomass for energy can do for a community. Biomass is a common energy generation method across Europe, and becoming more prevalent within the United States. And a place like Anderson, one of By utilizing sustainable energy as a driving element for our design, our goal is to provide clean energy for a neglected community through biomasswas management methods. Thefor aim ofthe the project is fourfold; to maximize the cities where electricity pioneered Southeastern region, could thrive in the cultivation of energy through biomass the amount of clean energy produced by the building, to provide sustainable services to the community, to methods and once again solidify itself as “The Electric City”. serve as a desirable space for its workers, community and the general public, and to provide a sense of belonging to the people of this community. This generation of clean energy on a site surrounded by residential homes is intended to fight the stigma that a traditional power plant has created for communities in recent projects and provide an economic hub for the community. The energy hub will serve as not only a major employment center for the community but also a social hub for food and retail.
