Barack Obama Presidential Library The Presidential Library for President Obama provides an intersection between the individual and the collective. The library consists of a series of spaces that represent these two concepts. President Obama is an individual that represents a whole nation, and the spaces in the library celebrate these two ideas. The Library uses different elements to fuse these two concepts. The movement through the building represents how an individual moves normally throughout a city. The city was used as a precedent to accomplish a manner of creating a space for both the collective and the individual. As in all cities, the paths (roads) are used by many individuals to arrive at different collective spaces. The gallery represents a collective space in which many different individuals can gather. The gallery element in the library is an enclosed box in order to provide a sense of destination while at the same time respecting President Obama’s individuality. The outer box is a series of paths that lead you to the same space. The individual is able to use any of the provided circulation elements, but each movement will lead to the same gallery. The building is situated in the Court of Presidents Park in Chicago. The park also represents a space for the collective. Because of this, the building itself needs to be that same space. The response to the site is the use of symmetry that already exists and also a connection piece between an already existing Abraham Lincoln monument, “Head of State�. The connection element is a path that directly connects both. The path brings people directly into the first floor of the library. The presidential library creates an experience of navigating through the life of an individual while at the same time allowing the viewer to be an individual in a collective space. 2

With the site being located in an urban setting, the intent of creating a new type of manufacturing facility was important. Looking at the site it created a front because of its location within the built environment, and infrastructure. Going back to the idea of creating a new type of facility the concept of reorganizing the facility into something new and exiting arose. The typical way of designing a manufacturing facility of this type has always been of placing the office part towards the front making it the most visible. The remainder of the facility, such as the factory and warehouse, are always hidden in the back. What is proposed is to turn this around and push the factory to the front making this the most visible part of the facility. This creates a new way to look at Kingspan, creates a new way to look at the product, and creates a way to showcase the actual manufacturing process. Not only will it showcase the process, but also the finished product. Now the process of manufacturing the product becomes the most important feature in the facility. This introduces a completely new way in which Kingspan becomes part of an urban setting. This also generates something new and exiting for the area and its people.

S3 A s s e m b l y f a c t o r y s3 systems is a company focused on producing the most efficient and sustainable prefabricated structures. The objective of the assigned project is to develop a manufacturing facility that can achieve producing the product in an efficient and sustainable way, and to also provide a working environment that is suitable for all employees. Alaska was chosen as the site because of existing oceanic routes connecting it to the rest of the world, while also providing the necessary infrastructure needed to run an efficient and successful manufacturing facility.
ALASKA
The design for the s3 systems manufacturing facility was based on the exploration of the life of the product and the connection between important programs [Factory+Office] . Materials begin as raw entities that become the final product. The fabrication of these structures is a linear process, which clearly starts to organize the program of the building. The process begins at one end of factory and it ends at the other ready for delivery. The building is set up to provide the most efficient production line. The intersection between factory and office programs becomes an important aspect of the design and an opportunity to create a central focus of the building. A division between theses two programs is necessary. While these need to be divided, a transparency between both connects these through the use of glass. This connection is celebrated throughout the entirety of the building. It provides a sense of community, openness, and transparency within the building. 38
