Brittany Dechant Elisa Sowell Center Of Excellence | Project 5 The Center of Excellence should be a place that empowers the local community in Haiti. Through focusing on farming, building, hygiene, water filtration, and leadership, the Haitians are given an opportunity to improve their lives. Beginning with farming, a large outdoor learning lab space facilitates research and teaching on vertical farming and fertilization systems. Aquaponics in the private plaza outside the wet lab allows for research of talapia farming. For building, full scale construction mock-ups in the private plaza serve as teaching tools for Haitian building construction. The building itself models best practices for future Haitian structures. Its thin floor plate, screen facades, and building orientation optimize wind direction for cross ventilation. The building overhang on the back creates a large outdoor workspace that is shaded and more comfortable for occupant use. The overhang is supported by columns instead of relying on a cantilever to secure the building against seismic forces . Hygiene and proper water filtration is taught in the classrooms and labs. Building restrooms are connected to the biodigesters off the back of the property. Haitians are able to see and learn about the biodigesters through classroom training. Labeled recycling and waste bins throughout the building help teach Haitian how to dispose of and recycle waste. The wet labs provide a space for thorough water management training, including how to test the water for disease and how to repair and filter existing water management systems. Employing local Haitians in the building process is critical to the community claiming this building as its own. It creates a sense of ownership and commitment to the project. All metal working and associated designs for screens will be determined in collaboration with local Haitian metalworkers. Meeting rooms are utilized to teach community members how to organize ideas and suggestions and put them into practice. Artwork and signage aimed at teaching healthy practices will be created by Haitian artists and displayed throughout the facility. This art will include both metalworking and painting. The building’s more austere plaster finish allows for bright vibrant works of art to become the voice of the building. In the outdoor space, “poze” walls are integrated throughout the terraces to serve as natural gathering spaces.

Cody Blevins Cameron McRae Elemental | Project 6
Our design proposal for the Center of Excellence revolves around capturing the innate capacities of our site to efficiently and economically climatize the building for its inhabitants. The specific charge for this project was to create a building that could stand as a model for excellence in the central plateau of Haiti. More than simply a program of excellence, this extends as well to performance excellence. Classically, there was a belief that the world was made up of four elements: earth, water, wind, and fire. While we now know that this is an oversimplification of our existance, we felt that it is nonetheless important to extrapolate and consider their value for the Center of Excellence and for the communities it serves. And so, to bring our building to life as a living and breathing model for excellence, our building systems once more harken back to the classical elements through integration of geothermal conditioning, water harvesting, natural stack ventilation, and solar energy collection, among other strategies.

SIMPLE STRUCTURE
Commitment to using the innate potential of the site to provide environmental conditions of the building. - Solar Chimneys - Earth Tubes + Preconditioned Air - Thermal Massing - Nocturnal Radiators - Natural Convection

GROUND RELATION
Commitment to maximizing natural daylighting of interior spaces. - Narrow structures to allow for appropriate penetration of natural light - Strategic window placement and sizing - Shade structure on high exposure facade + combined walkway-light-shelf condition.
Commitment to access - Ground level access to each floor - Elimination of “back of building� via tiered plazas - Division private and public with secured access - Reconstituting landscape through vegetated tiers

Commitment to maximizing natural daylighting of interior spaces. - Narrow structures to allow for appropriate penetration of natural light - Strategic window placement and sizing - Shade structure on high exposure facade + combined walkway-light-shelf condition.
Commitment to access - Ground level access to each floor - Elimination of “back of building” via tiered plazas - Division private and public with secured access - Reconstituting landscape through vegetated tiers
Commitment to simplifying building conditions. - Work with & improve on existing building technologies. - Adherence to one building method to economize needed skills and equipment. - Design for seismic conditions.

Luke Brigman Ashley Jenkins The Art Of The Possible | Project 7 Our objective was to design a self-sustaining community center in Cange, Haiti that demonstrates the art of the possible. The building will celebrate its building systems by exposing them in the public spaces. The community will be able to come together and interact with the building, participating in a learning environment and gaining an understanding of how the building systems work. This central premise is followed out in three design strategies: (1) Incorporate system demonstrations in the public courtyard spaces. (2) Provide transparency between public spaces and working / research areas, allowing the public to view into wet labs and maker spaces. (3) Optimize the site for passive environmental strategies such as: water and solar harvesting, and storm water control.

Nicholas Debessonet Alex Sanchez Learning Network | Project 8 Haiti is a rugged, mountainous land, dominated by three main mountain ranges. This causes the terrain to undulate, creating challenges for construction, transportation, and day-to-day living. The landscape acts as the dominant force, requiring the country to adapt and develop workable patterns. The result can be seen at two scales. First, the city of Port-au-Prince contains moments of dense housing which are built up along a steep slope. The housing blocks stack and step back as the urban community grows and blends with the rising terrain. This creates platforms of interaction and social micro-climates. At a smaller scale, Cange has similar constraints with the dynamic landscape. The principal village is built up the slope (west of Route 3) with large pockets of space between dwellings. This creates a network of open terraces that offer versatility to the user. The residents of Cange also adapt to the land scape during social events and entertainment, as seen in the Bon Sauveur school yard. They gather, rest and interact throughout these terraced platforms. These observations helped to shape the siting and spatial organization of our proposal for the Center of Excellence.
