What is a Business Incubator? A business incubator is an organization who’s purpose is to aid new and startup companies via an array of business support resources and services.

Why a business Incubator? Incubators have been around from as early as the 1960’s, and were commonly used to foster the creation of companies especially during economic and technological crises. A business incubator serves as a positive influence to the surrounding community, as they seek to encourage structured entrepreneurship. This occurs as incubator staff aids clients in formalizing their business, via professional training and development of possible business ideas.

Background Background

Municipal Craft Market Ocho Rios Source: M. Arch 2, Class Photos

The class of M. Arch 2 performed an urban study of the coastal town of Ocho Rios. From this urban study, each student undertook a thesis project which was born out of the analysis within this urban space. During the study, interviews were conducted with residents of the town, of which, the craft venders formed an area of interest for this thesis report. Amongst the various findings, the challenge of reduced commerce for artisans, and skilled residents, stood out as an area of interest.

It was observed that current problems contribute to the lack of economic growth within the town of Ocho Rios. This thesis project therefore aims to identify these problems and provide a more viable approach to monetizing the rich Jamaican culture.

dependent on the tourism industry.

The proposed solution will seek to evolve the mind-set of the residents’ approach to commerce and business practices which will in-turn allow the town to be lesser

Problems identified Informal Commerce

Transient Population

Monolithic Creativity

The town is saturated with tourist oriented business that goes dormant when tourist activities are low, as they depend primarily on these transient customers.

Craft is used both as an expression of cultural creativity and its sale is one of the primary means of income generation in Ocho Rios. This approach is limited as Jamaica’s culture is incredibly diverse and has much more to offer.

The residents of Ocho Rios expressed a great need to generate additional income. This results in a high rate of informal commerce occuring throught this urban space.

Amongst the many challenges observed within the town, the problems above were found to be the prevalent issues affecting economic growth within the town. 10

Framework of Research The framework of research involved the merging of 4 key areas through out the life of the thesis project. These areas included: 1. Design Studio research 2. Dissertation research 3. The Urban Study 4. Other general research One of the main factors that would make use of the dissertation research, is the design and proposed operation of an incubator that guides its clients on efficient workplace operation utilizing theories discussed. The incubator is seen as a creator of business, and hence must stand as an example of how an efficient work space should be designed. Erik Veldhoen’s- ActivityBased Working theories taken from Clive Wilkinson’s- Theatre of work, Hermin Miller Co.- Living office, will be used throughout the design of the Business Incubator building.

Quantitative Research

During the research process, multiple research questions were posed in aid of driving the appropriate methods of research. A few of the questions initially posed were: 1. What is the business environment like in Ocho Rios vs Other coastal towns? 2. What is the demographic composition of the town? 3. What type of skills exist within the town? 4. What is the education level of the various demographic groupings within the community? 5. What are the features of an Incubator? 6. Where will the incubator be located? The research undertaken throughout the thesis project took place in both quantitative and qualitative formats. A significant amount of the quantitative information was acquired from the urban study field work, and governmental documents, such as SDC reports, St Ann development orders and information from various municipal organizations. Qualitative information was gathered primarily from architectural literature containing design theories and processes. The research was also supplemented by technical research in the form of case studies.

Skills found in Ocho Rios

Education Level

The total labour force for Ocho Rios was estimated to be five thousand, and eight (5,008) persons (SDC March 2018)

A high percentage of residents in Ocho Rios possess a form of skill with 55% of the population employed and 45% unemployed. The most prevalent skills among youths are listed in the diagram above . It was found that males were more skilled in certain areas hence the prevalence of male figures having jobs in , Finance, I.T., Barbering, Transportation, Cooking, Security, Medicine (doctors), Law, Masonry, General construction, System Administration, Plumbing and Electricical installation. Females were more skilled in areas such as Nursing, Teaching and Administration (secretarial). The Incubator would target the development of areas 1, 6, 8, and 9, promoting the creation of businesses in these categories.

Results revealed that 5% of the population has attained only basic school education,15% with primary level, and 50% having secondary level education. Jamaica has a National Training Agency (HEART Trust/N.T.A) which specializes in training people in the develop ment of their skills. It is for this reason that the Business Incubator will target trained individuals based on the skills training available from the Heart Trust agency, along with persons with minimal secondary level education, however applicants must posses an innate or acquired skill.

Participants noted that 35% of the employed population was self-employed while 65% were formally employed. Those considered to be selfemployed are taxi drivers, barbers, hairdressers, restaurant owners, bartenders, market vendors, corner shop owners, taxi loaders and farmers. The Business incubator would aim to boost employment levels by stimulating the creation of new companies to reduce overall unemployment.

Environmental Sustainability Water

Materials

The incubator will feature the ability to capture and reuse rain water for productive purposes within the industrial areas, for the fire protection systems, for cleaning, for use in landscaped areas, along with flushing lavatories and urinals.

The light industrial workshops will generate waste material. The incubator will establish symbiotic relationships with suitable companies that can utilize the waste generated as raw materials. (E.g Sawdust for Fertilizers)

Energy The incubator will be heavily dependent on electrical energy. As such an Energy Management System (EMS) will be incorporated to monitor usage. Additionally all coworking spaces will utilize Internet of Things (IoT) technology to power all lighting and low powered electronic devices. (i.e. Power over Ethernet (PoE) - powering devices via computer Network vs. traditional electrical wiring ARCHITECTURAL THESIS REPORT - Creative Campus Business Incubator

Use of Passive Ventilation The incubator will utilize passive ventilation to cool communal areas and including workshops.

Photographic Exploration

Concept Development In the development of the building and its programme, exploration through a series of photographic images was undertaken to strengthen the conceptual linkages of building design. Throughout this exploration, focus was given to the industrial transitions that took place during the early development of the town of Ocho Rios. Reynolds Pier played a major role in the industrial development of the town as it was the 1st bauxite exportation pier in Jamaica. It was selected as a cultural artifact driving the design of the building.

of departure: Conceptual Works | Point Economic Evolution of Ocho Rios The town of Ocho Rios was originally a simple fishing village, however, in 1952 with the construction of the Reynolds Jamaica Mines, transformation began to take hold of the fishing village, as mining began to contribute greatly not only to the town’s economy but also to the wider Jamaica. The mines eventually closed operations in 1984, after which the town began to shift towards tourism, building upon the remains of the mining industry.

It was observed that over time there have been various debates, both positive and negative, over the revitalization of the mining industry in Ocho Rios. This is evident in various articles either moving for or against the simultaneous operation of these 2 major economic entities. The idea of returning mining as an additional economic enhancer creates an interesting merging and morphing of the towns identity. This morphing creates an opportunity for a point of departure by exploring the polarization experienced by the town in the merging and transitioning from the mining industry to the tourist industry

Point of departure expressed in 3d model 28

ARCHITECTURAL THESIS REPORT - Creative Campus Business Incubator


Conceptual Works | Concept and design linkage Throughout the conceptual exploration process, the growth of the town was described as rhizomatic. As such, the concept of the rhizome was expressed through the utilization of the Activity Based Workplace Design theory (A.B.W).
