When I was first hired as an intern, my supervisor Angie asked me what I wanted from this internship. I responded with two things: site visits and exposure to as many aspects about the profession as possible. I’ve been so grateful for the opportunities I’ve had that the Lawrence Group, words can’t express how much I have learned and grown.

Though I have touched multiple projects during my time at Lawrence Group so far, I have worked on the University of Illinois Springfield master-planning project. Though I’ve helped on various graphics and presentations throughout my two months, I’ve loved working on this project the most. Working in an amazing firm like Lawrence Group has been such an eye opening experience; I have learned so much, and felt so welcome in such a short amount of time. UIS CAMPUS MAP W/ FUTURE PROJECTS

In Fall 2018, I became a part of Dirt Works Studio. It’s a design build studio with a larger focus with bigger solutions compared to other design build studios. Our project was to renovate two classrooms in Nunemaker Center, the home of the KU Honors Program. The director wanted these spaces to be modern, inviting, and full of technology.
13
With a budget of $95,000, out studio proposed tearing down walls to install a glazing system entry. Two swing doors allows the classrooms to open to the atrium space, and be more inviting to guests. The wood wrap provides acoustical balance and a sense of warmth, and supports the technology in the classroom. Last, back painted glass surfaces provide a flexible workspace for students when class is and isn’t in session. Our studio never missed a day of being on site - we came in on snow days, during tornado warnings, and more. Many unexpected situations arose, but we braved the storm and created a result the Honors Program will cherish forever.

This proposal creates a Honors Campus rather than a building addition; the box, bar, and landscape create an experience unique to the Honors Program and its goals. The north facade acts as a threshold; once you step through, you are in the campus. Once inside, the campus is full of life and connectivity, inside and out. The warmth of mass timber and natural materials makes the campus more welcoming, and the connection to the honors dormitory promotes student engagement beyond class. This scheme is successful for the honors program due to its student focus, sustainable site incorporation, and focus on the future of the KU Honors Campus.

To design for children, concepts reverted to childhood memories. The imagination of reading and seeing composite images remembered to this day, especially the very hungry caterpillar. This overlapping, artistic expression of nature inspired Viendra, a daycare and exploration center in Lakin, Kansas. This development will engage the community to learn more about STEM and create a safe daycare space the community needs. Viendra, French for “to come,� symbolizes the unity and engagement that this center will provide.

SOUTH COURTYARD CONNECTION
The goal of this project was to design a facility that doubles as a 24/7 daycare and exploration center, as well as an opportunity for intergenerational involvement in the community. This design involves a direct attachment to the current senior care facility, therefore creating a courtyard space for activity of all ages. Its overall form was inspired by the undulating nature of a caterpillar: the plan curves around the center courtyard space in a similar way to a curved caterpillar form, and the overall massing of the structure undulates in a similar way. This design highly incorporates the seniors ability to interact with the children, and creates many opportunity for community and state-wide involvement

Interior finishes were meant to be warm and colorful, an atmosphere that kids and parents alike would feel welcome and energized by. The vernacular color spectrum of greens, blues, and bright yellows creates an inviting experience that feels natural. The palate is the same for the exploration center and the daycare. This proposal explores angular forms colliding with vernacular traditions. The connection to the senior facility creates more intergenerational engagement community, and creates unity between young and old.

The best way to divide a “tiny home� unit was through introvert and extrovert space, as well as through activity spaces and service spaces. This grid system determined actions occurring in the four quadrants of my buildings: bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, and living space. The form came from the icon of growth, a sprout, and created shelter and identity to the spaces.

The urban development of this housing complex was crucial to its impact on the surrounding areas and its own privacy factors. Each unit looks out to the central green space with amenities for any age or ability. Each unit also has public and private porches, along with covered parking and a garden space. These amenities are rare to find in most developments, and create more versatile, adaptable environments.

FLOOR PLAN
There is an initiative in Lawrence to shrink the minimum lot size from 4,000 sqft to 1,000 sqft, as well as a need and desire for intergenerational housing developments to engage many aspects of the community. Each unit has its own wood cladding, corrugated metal sheathing,and front door color to add a personalized touch to every unit. On the interior, the mostly open floor plan provides just as much flexibility and personality. There are many opportunities with outdoor engagement to promote interaction in the community. This initiative would promote sustainable designs and urban developments, and shows that intergenerational living benefits every community member.

In the summer of 2018, I had to opportunity to research a specific healthcare department and create data for Mercy to have effective and improved designs in the future. I chose NICU, neonatal intensive care unit, research because of its complexity and rapidly adapting systems. To do the research, I broke it down into five phases:

DIAGRAMS
After receiving critical feedback from parents and staff of the NICU, it was important to breakdown all of the data received so far into more diagrams for understanding and goal setting. Diagrams included in this section address: - Purpose – Flow – Locations – Zoning – Elements – Visibility Purpose Breakdown In figure 5.1, the overall plan of the Mercy St. Louis NICU is broken down to understand the purpose in each individual space, and to see purpose trends. Doing this reveals that the essence of design in the NICU is based upon a staff core surrounded by circulation, that is surrounded again by patient pods. Though the forms and access of circulation vary, it is all passed upon this centralized path. It is also clear to see how many STAFF & SUPPORT staffpatient & support spaces do not have window access, and instead various support spaces gain this opportunity for no PATIENT SPACE reason patient space other than location proximity. It is clear to see that the main family space is off od this corridor, and is FAMILY SPACE family spaceseparate from most patient spaces. fairly

Staff Shadow Location In addition to visualizing the flow and utilization of the NICU, it was important to show where staff was located when shadowed to show the similar feedback from any location in the NICU. Staff work in different areas almost every shift, but tend to stay on either the green or the yellow side. Almost all staff were shadowed and interviewed when working in their pod, but in the case of neonatologists, they moved between pods constantly, and for simplicity’s sake they are marked in their place when first shadowed.
