Hefei No.45 Middle School Location: Hefei, Anhui Province, China Client: Vanke Hefei Site Area: 3.9 ha / 9.7 acres Floor Area: 33,844 sqm / 364,294 sqft Proposal: November 2013, Completion: September 2015 Team: L.Gräbner, C.Hansen, K.Raczkowski, Y.Xu, G.C.Carter, X.Wang, M.Kim LDI: HFUTADI / Studio 2, X.Qi, Y.Zhou, Y.Yang, W.Tang Photographer: neo Studio Duty: Schematic Design, Design Development, Construction Documentation, Project Management
The Hefei No.45 Middle School is situated in the center of the “Forest Park” neighborhood, a northern urban extension to the City of Hefei, in Anhui Province, China. The 3.9-hectare site occupies an entire block within the city, located at the corner of Guzhen Road and Lanmei Road. The design is intended to both implement and reinforce contemporary pedagogical concepts, which view education as an empowering process of development across a broad range of topics. The architecture is therefore more opportunistic than restrictive. The composition of programs on the site encourage a high level of mobility within the school, where students no longer learn in the classrooms alone, but utilize the communal areas as well. Ample space is provided for activities and movement between the core program areas, creating a variety of atmospheres and spaces well suited to the variable learning and playing needs of young students. Much care has therefore been taken to provide additional space to break the rigidity of the educational environment, commonly seen in traditional school buildings in China.

Site & Program
Site & Landscape Strategy
Building Implementation
The design places equal importance on the structured teaching within the classroom and the organic learning in the schoolyard, providing for a balanced educational experience. As a result, the landscape strategy becomes the dominant driver, by maintaining a schoolyard of nearly the same area as the site itself, while accommodating 34,000 square meters of floor area to house 2,400 students in a total of 48 classes. The combination of limited space and extensive program requirements stimulates an innovative and unusual design solution for the school. In order to maximize the outdoor area and provide a vivid landscape with differentiated spaces, courtyards, play areas, and sports fields, all the common functions, such as the library, the dining hall, and the gymnasium, are embedded within the landscape. The associated roof areas are then utilized as an accessible part of the schoolyard. These areas are connected to the overall yard system through a variety of interactive green slopes and generously sized stairs.

The classrooms, as well as faculty’s offices, are housed in linear bars raised on columns, creating a strong relationship between buildings and landscape while the accessible roof areas slip through the classrooms above and the common program areas below.The linear classroom bars with their exterior corridors, are occasionally broken up to allow for student lounges and activity areas, creating places for study, interclass work, group work, play, and exhibitions. Rather than being isolated above the ground, these bars are connected to the landscape and programs below through a variety of access points and stairs, creating a multitude of alternate circulation paths throughout the school. A public north-south axis on the west side of the complex connects the four classroom bars with the central hall and provides access to the landscape on the second level. Amongst the multiple circulation options to each program element in the school, this axis acts as the central orientation for the major programs. The central hall, located within this northsouth bar, becomes the core of the complex. Besides acting as the ceremonial entrance hall, the three-story space also serves as an assembly hall for important occasions.

The overall composition of the complex speaks to the education of the student. The landscape and core programing, rendered in simple greys, granite pavement, and lush green slopes, present a unified and balanced base for the learning above. The four elevated classroom bars then differentiate themselves through an expressive façade of vibrant reds and oranges. The placement of differently proportioned windows creates a coherent interplay with the irregular façade pattern to achieve a strong, yet playful image. The far visible vibrancy of the color stands out in the neighborhood, and resembles a fresh contrast to the surrounding urban fabric.

644 Selden Street Mixed Use Development Location: Detroit, Michigan, USA Client: AG Selden LLC Site Area: 9129 sqft / 848 sqm Floor Area: 26,923 sqft / 2,501 sqm Proposal: May 2016 Team: L.Gr채bner, C.Hansen, M.Biglin, X.Liao Duty: Demolition Package, Schematic Design, Design Development, Construction Documentation
The design proposal for 644 Selden consists of two parts: the re-appropriation of the existing historic gasket workshop into a restaurant on the first floor and a shared workspace on the second floor, and the new construction of seven 2-story residential units above. The challange comes from the innovative program layout for different user groups, which proposes a clear hierarchy of access and circulation, as well as to enable the potential use of space among the young professionals for interdisciplinary collaborations. Due to the historic significance of the existing building, the design tends to restore the streetfront on the south side to match its original status, and keep as much remaining west elevation as is after re-programming of the interior space. The proposed 2-story residential unites are recessed from existing facade by 5 ft on both west and east sides to reduce the impact of added massing. Materials and colors applied to the new construction are also in consideration of the existing building's historic character, while meeting the modern living standard.

666 Selden Street Commercial Development Location: Detroit, Michigan, USA Client: AG Selden LLC Site Area: 15,682 sqft / 1,457 sqm Floor Area: 8,240 sqft / 766 sqm Proposal: March 2016 Team: L.Gräbner, C.Hansen, M.Biglin, X.Liao Duty: Demolition Package, Schematic Design, Design Development, Construction Documentation, Coordination w/ Client
The 666 Selden, known as the SMITH WELDING SUPPLY CO. BUILDING, is a one-story former industrial building in Midtown Detroit. The building is accessed from Selden Street, the alley and a work yard on its east frontage. The original building was constructed in early 1950’s, and received several additions during the 1960’s. It is a contributing building in the Willis-Selden Local Historic District. The building encompasses about 8,240 square feet and has a 3'-6" raised concrete pad as loading dock on the courtyard side. The building has a yellow / beige face brick façade with modest decorative elements, which is mainly a slightly recessed panel above the storefront. The windows and a central door are executed in a simple industrial anodized aluminum frame with single pane glazing and an opaque dark grey painted fiberglass or fiber cement board in the lower part of the storefront system. The façade is equipped with an original neon sign above the central door, which pictures a gas bottle and reads “Smith Welding Supply Co.” as well as the address “666”. A later addition to the building on the west side with a truck entrance and a white overhead door is also executed with a face brick, which is apparently of newer production and has a slight different color and texture than the storefront façade. All other facades are executed in exposed and painted concrete masonry. The east side has a steel roll up door from the raised pad. The roof is largely constructed with open web steel joists and some w-sections and is covered with a Pyrofill Gypsum Roof Deck System and a BUR waterproofing system.
Street View from Selden The building will be rehabilitated to a restaurant and commercial use with the most minimal impact on the current appearance and structure as possible. In respect to the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation, the existing Selden Street frontage will be restored to its original, including the historic neon sign. On the east façade, facing the courtyard, the existing loading dock and pad will be removed. The necessity to remove the concrete pad is based on the tenant’s plans to rehabilitate the existing building to a restaurant use. The pad would hinder circulation, usable space and cannot be made compliant to current ADA regulations to justify its alteration or restoration. The interior use of the building is currently compromised by inadequate head height and therefore the removal of the pad is beneficial and necessary to turn the building into the intended use. A dark color metal frame canopy is proposed to extend from the east elevation toward the rear. The canopy will cover a paved concrete patio, which contains several concrete gas fire pits, planter area and built in concrete benches with wood seats. The canopy is designed with glass roof in order to provide the patio area with a better outdoor usability. Thus, the entire canopy roof is sloping down from the east edge, which is at 14’-6”, at a 2% rate towards the west side for water runoff. The steel structure will be constructed with w-sections, and the weatherproof wood louvers are implemented between the structural members to shade the patio area. The canopy louvers and the new restaurant window system will share the same wood appearance for architectural consistency.

The Village at Orchestra Place Location: Detroit, Michigan, USA Client: Confidential Site Area: 6.5 acres / 2.6 ha Floor Area: 296,399 sqft / 27,536 sqm (New Construction) Proposal: November 2015 Team: L.Gräbner, C.Hansen, M.Biglin, X.Liao Duty: Schematic Urban Design, Schematic Building Design
The cultural significance of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, combined with its Midtown location, offers a truly exciting opportunity for meaningful development within the city. The Sasaki Master Plan highlights this opportunity by proposing the development of a cultural district within the city. We adopted the aspirations as laid out in the vision developed by Sasaki to seek a vibrant and interactive mixed-use district located near the southern edge of Midtown with the DSO serving as the heartbeat. Primary aspects of the development are to create an integrated and pedestrian activated, live and work community which will act as cultural incubator and positions the DSO as a magnet in the city.
West Entrance on Cass The district will take the form of a campus, with five individual buildings grouped around an attractive courtyard, housing cultural venues, spaces for entrepreneurial development, and 230 residences. The primary design strategy for the campus is to create a permeable courtyard system with urban street frontages towards Cass in the west, Parsons in the north and Davenport in the south. The lively and pedestrian-friendly inner walkway connects to all three streets and fosters activity in a generous space populated with art venues, exhibition/performance sites, shared work spaces, and a cafĂŠ. This system of courtyards and plazas offer human-scale urban spaces, each with its own unique character designed for the needs of a variety of users and
Overall Aerial View
residents. One important aspect of the urban design and subsequent layout of the buildings is to create spaces that minimize the visual impact of the existing and proposed additional parking structures which dampen street life and discourage the use of public spaces. Effectively integrating the parking in such a way enhances the life and has a positive effect on the use of public spaces. Additionally, the position and orientation of the buildings reference the various contextual geometries of the surrounding city and internalize those interesting geometries in order to organize a vivid and differentiated inner courtyard sequence throughout the campus. As a result, we were able to create three distinct and connected courtyards and plazas.

The Art Plaza on Parsons creates an improved pedestrian connection between Cass and Woodward, while at the same time improving the pedestrian experience by showcasing the art gallery and studios in conjunction with the existing Casgrain Hall Senior Residence building, the composition of buildings creates a unique and dense urban atmosphere. The plaza will be paved as a shared surface and will continue to allow vehicular access to the DSO parking deck. The planned rerouting of the exit traffic from the deck to Davenport Street reduces the traffic impact on the plaza. The larger portion of the plaza is purely dedicated to pedestrians and visitors to the art and activity space as well as the shared workspaces in the building abutting the DSO parking deck. The Culture Park on the path between Cass and Parsons offers an outdoor cafĂŠ in the summer months and green space as relief from the streets around. This Culture Park can also be utilized by the art gallery, as well as residents, thus creating a dynamic, flexible space.

This system of courtyards and plazas offer human-scale urban spaces, each with its own unique character designed for the needs of a variety of users and residents. One important aspect of the urban design and subsequent layout of the buildings is to create spaces that minimize the visual impact of the existing and proposed additional parking structures which dampen street life and discourage the use of public spaces. Effectively integrating the parking in such a way enhances the life and has a positive effect on the use of public spaces. Additionally, the position and orientation of the buildings reference the various contextual geometries of the surrounding city and internalize those interesting geometries in order to organize a vivid and differentiated inner courtyard sequence throughout the campus. As a result, we were able to create three distinct and connected courtyards and plazas.

4141 CASS AVE
Midtown Detroit is rapidly developing into a center of creativity, street life, start-ups and gastronomy. This district becomes Detroit’s most dynamic and characteristic area for entrepreneurs, and sought-after location for young professionals, not only due to Wayne State University in its Center. As diverse and eclectic as the residents are, the possibilities and need to accommodate various new businesses create an increased demand for new homes. The design proposal consists of two 3-story mixed use buildings in the neighborhood. The buildings of a gross floor area of 6,000 sqft each are located at 441 W. Willis Street and 4141 Cass Avenue, which share similarities in use, size, proportions, materiality and character. Each building comprises of a retail space accessible from the street and 4 dwelling units above. Parking is provided under the overhang from the upper floors in the back of each building, and is accessible from Cass Avenue through a common entrance. The buildings contribute to the contextual mixed use character, and offer comfortable modern dwelling units with ample light and open floor plans. The retail space on the first floor relates to the commercial street frontages nearby. Both buildings present themselves with a 35 ft high façade with dark red-purple brick on all elevations.

The kindergartent is located on a narrow site with the main orientation of 32.9 degrees off a true north-south axis, which is optimum for educational buildings in the region. To optimize sun exposure for all classroom clusters, music room and interior play areas, the design proposes to rotate all the educational units, including regular classroom clusters and the music room, to face true south. The back of house is assembled in the north to create a backbone for the building, and to allow for the generous space for main circulation and childre's activity. A stacking and shifting of all programs enables roof gardens and terraces on different levels, providing good access to the outdoor areas.

Fuhuang Steel Group Headquarters Campus Location: Hefei, Anhui Province, China Client: Anhui Fuhuang Steel Group Co.,Ltd Site Area: 5.8 ha / 14.4 acres Floor Area: 43,008 sqm / 462,934 sqft Proposal: November 2013 Team: L.Gräbner, C.Hansen, K.Raczkowski, Y.Xu, V.Black LDI: Golden Land Architecture Design Institute Duty: Schematic Campus Planning, Schematic Design of Headquarters Tower, Dining Hall and Exhibition Hall
The site for the headquarters campus is located in the Municipality of Chaohu, near the northern shore of Chaohu Lake in Anhui Province. Due to the recent completion of the Lake Shore Drive, the area will most likely be accessed from the south, making the site visible to visitors. Furthermore, the area to the south of the company’s large manufacturing premises is planned to remain as nature preserve, creating a strong contrast of large manufacturing halls and a quaint natural landscape as part of the developing recreational district along the lake shore. The decision to place the new headquarters campus as transition between the rational geometries of the production halls and the nature preserve offeres an opportunity to rethink the function and design for a headquarters campus. We were aiming to develop an architecture, which not only is capable of creating a modest transition between nature and working environment, but also taking advantage of the challenge and to create a working environment, which has a strong relationship to the landscape surrounding it. This required to break down the program into smaller entities, increasing the direct relation of the working environment and other functions to it’s surrounding. In our design we wanted to embrace the entirety of the context in a broader geographical vision capable of making the transition between nature and industry, by perceiving buildings as part of the landscape and create a development of a system of proportional landscape elements incorporating the existing habitat.

The site for the new campus is located in the new city extension in the south of Ma’anshan and has superb location features for a campus of this importance. The site is ideally connected to the region via the new high-speed rail as well as from the Nanjing-Wuhu Turnpike. Locally, the new campus will be reached by East Taibai Road and East Huangchi Road. In the future, Donglian Road in the north of the site will directly connect to Ma’anshan’s City Center. These regional as well local connections renders the site to be a prime location for a regional institution.

Site Plan
In order to create a rich and interactive campus layout, the objectives are to preserve as much of the qualities of the site as possible, while creating a learning environment, which takes advantage of the landscape features. In order to create a stimulating yet relaxing atmosphere for learning, research and cultural activities, all buildings ought to directly connect to the landscape, while mediating between quality urban spaces. This duality is achieved by combining intimate plazas and clusters of classroom buildings, labs and research facilities, which are each surrounded by a rich network of an experiential landscape, connecting all facilities and functions. An Academic Network of connecting paths and promenades intertwines this Landscape Network. CENTRAL PUBLIC SPACE

A small hill in the center of the site allows for interesting topographical changes and resembles a welcoming feature for the navigation through the site.
South Entrance Plaza
The stream in the north bears future qualities for an intimate and casual River Walk, while the existing Donglian Road, running northsouth through the center of the site bared some challenges to qualitatively integrate it into the overall site concept. We turned the challenges into an asset by introducing Landscape Wedges to transform the road into a new Leisure Axis of individual character areas. The Leisure Axis can be described as a linear park of a new kind. While preserving as many aspects of the road as necessary, each area of the former road is now interpreted differently, such as a Linear Sports Park, a Flower and Blooming Tree Garden, skate park, as well as allowing other activities on partially preserved asphalt strips for performances, flee markets, and informal practice areas. Overlooking the southern Lake, the central Dining Hall is also located on the Leisure Axis with direct access to the Flower and Blooming Tree Garden and view over the central hill in the north of it. The Ribbon of Contemplation connects all landscape areas as well as academic and residential functions informally, and allows the visitor to experience a vast landscape park in its entirety.

Under the regime of contemporary network city, infrastructure, both physical and immaterial one, holds its supremacy in urban development. It has brought to the cities prominent advantages through its capabilities in efficiency, expansion, and connectivity. And, when speaking about the success of infrastructure, it is always defined at regional scale, which overlooks the negative effect on local level.

Pedestrian Movement In Day Time
Viaducts have rapidly become an influential component of contemporary patterns of urban development in China. Pressures for rapid economic growth have resulted in repeated cases of expressways carving through historically residential fabric. Viaducts bring prominent advantages to cities through the establishment of regional connectivity. In all cases, however, the local dynamics of pre-existing street life are sacrificed to promote the logistics of efficiency and expansion. The infinite linearity, cumbersome structure, and environmental deficiencies that characterize viaducts have hindered this infrastructure from being part of the city’s inhabitability.
Viaduct, as the extension of express way into the urbanized area, carries the flows of traffic for people and goods.
Pedestrian Movement In Night Time
At the completion of its construction, the undersides of viaduct, which were once the goodness on regional level, suddenly get exposed at local scale: its linearity designed for efficiency becomes the greatest barrier for pedestrians to go across; its cumbersome structure turns into limitation for potential development. Together with noise, and insufficiency in sunlight, and fresh air, viaducts seem to have created a inhabitable space around with in the city, and prepared to stand there for eternity. All of which come from the mis-matching between the two scales: regional and local.
This thesis considers the viaduct, from the lens of local street dynamics, towards a model of spatial and material connectivity wherein infrastructure serves both the city and its people.

Building from Stan Allen’s work on structured field co n d i t i o n s i n P o i n t s + Lines: Diagrams and P ro j e c t s Fo r t h e C i t y , the thesis explores the potential that infrastructural pathways can serve to re-establish urban connectivity.
Lines contain movement, service, and function, providing security and convenience for local users.
SIte Operation A
Dots serve as program concourses along the lines and are centered within the most stable ground conditions of the viaduct. The insertion of dots enables flows to be oriented towards new grounds and provides an organizational locus for activities.
Site Operation B
F i n a l ly , s u r fa ce s a re destinations within the non-linear network established by lines and dots. Surfaces are constructed common g ro u n d s i m b u e d w i t h a variety of program including work, display, service, and recreation.
In combination, these three strategies simultaneously work to produce conditions of adjacency and proximity and replicate the integrated a n d d y n a mi c n a t u re o f urban street life.

The building uses the glamorous backdrop of Monaco to further create a concentrated image of exclusivity. The form frames views of the cityscape, the ceremonial headquarters of the prince’s palace and the surrounding natural beauty of the Cote d’Azur.

The design scheme, "Day Trip Car Park", carves out a section of Monaco and actively constructs a particular image related to luxury automobiles while simultaneously allowing the public to occupy that image. It achieves this goal by wrapping and concentrating the streetscape below into the structure, codifying Monaco’s imagistic facade into one continuous ribbon, a parade of Monaco’s luxury cars. Between the loops and ramps of this ribbon, large floor plates are used as rentable space for banquets, conferences, and parties. Visitors are able to participate in Monaco’s luxury image, and high net worth individuals are allowed to flaunt their wealth, creating a symbiosis between groups that are largely disparate today in Monaco.

Being the most densely populated sovereign nation in the world, and with the world’s highest GDP nominal per capita, Monaco presents itself as a glamorous star along the beautiful coast of Mediterranean sea. Tourists come to visit Monaco to experience its diversity, however, the most common form tourist takes is a “Day Trip” for Monaco’s high living expense. D.T.C.P, Day Trip Car Park, takes the advantanges of a Car Park’s form, which enables a continuous path for pedestrians and automobiles from bottom to top. Along the circulation, urban scenarios are folded into the space and defined by the different floor hight. Thus, the building is first a event space, then a car park. At the end, by including all the “postcard image” of Monaco, fancy cars, casino, and tennis game, D.T.C.P. tries to criticize the form of tourism in Monaco, and encourages travelers to explore / experience the city itself.

Fields of Play attempts to redefine the public domain of the residential space. There is always a stark boundary created between the city and the private domain. Though this is required with respect to the space we reside in, it is not always warranted at the level of the city. The undulating landscape that rises up above the plinth, while providing public access to the pedestrian bridge, plays with the commercial program to create a multitude of spaces that the public can use. It looks to create a multi-layered program that invites the public and the residents to interact and use the space.
