NARRATIVE
,QĂ XHQWLDO 5HVHDUFK
I. Oakland has a rich history of baseball dating back to the late nineteenth century. II. The site is located at an existing shipping yard adjacent to the popular local and tourist food destination, Jack London Square.

I. The current stadium of the Oakland Athletics is the only 1960’s multi-purpose stadium still in use in Major League Baseball today. II. The city is looking for a new stadium closer to the downtown area that incorporates positive urban design practice. ,,, -DFN /RQGRQ 6TXDUH LV LQ QHHG RI PRUH HQWHUWDLQPHQW PRUH QRQ IRRG UHODWHG DPHQLWLHV DQG DQ RIÀFLDO HQG FDS WR WKH DUHD

I. The Athletics new stadium will be a modern design that serves as a landmark for the city and Jack London Square. II. The stadium will enhance the existing neighborhood by providing entertainment, retail, residential, and public green space. III. The development on the site will lead to cleanup of the area’s 100 years of industrial use. IV. The newly created park will include Oak trees that help clean up some of the city’s air pollution. V. The stadium, surrounding structures, and landscaping will capture energy through sunlight, utilize passive ventilation, and maximize the capture and reuse of rain water. 9, 7KH VWDGLXP ZLOO KHOS FRQWLQXH WR UHGHÀQH WKH PHDQLQJ RI ´EDOOSDUN ¾ EOXUULQJ WKH OLQHV RI ZKHUH WKH VWDGLXP HQGV DQG SDUN EHJLQV

The primary planning of spaces was to ensure that the needs of a baseball stadium were met. In addition, the design also sought to create entertainment, retail, dining, and public spaces that could be accessed year round. The stadium attempted to draw inspiration from the city of Oakland and the ballparks of the Athletics’ past - dating back to Kansas City and Philadelphia.

Caracas,Venezuela 2015-Currently Under Construction Architect: Gensler This ballpark uses the culture and context of Venezuela to shape the design and feature elements. The building is a tall element located at the top of a hill, appearing as a natural element in the mountainous terrain of the country. Different seating levels are color coded red, yellow, and blue, UHIHUHQFLQJ WKH 9HQH]XHODQ ÁDJ $Q DGGLWLRQDO FXOWXUDO UHIHUHQFH LV WKH weave pattern on the exterior of the building that references Venezuela’s indigenous people’s practice of basket weaving. This building was instrumental to the beginning of my project to look at how local culture can be used to create a building that represents its city.

San Diego, California 2004-present Architect: Populous and Antoine Predock This ballpark was a great example for a number of different design decisions. My initial exploration of how to create a park-like atmosphere stemmed from the grassy area beyond the center field wall. I wanted to explore how this area could be used for fans on game days and locals the rest of the year. Later in the year, I examined the exterior design of the building. I studied the usage of local materials and color choices, as well as visited the architect’s website to learn how the local landscape affected the massing and placement of materials.

One of my major focus points for the project ZDV WKH HQWU\ VHTXHQFHV 7KH FHQWHU ÀHOG entry from the park includes trees and green walls leading up to and into the park.
MATERIAL PALETTE
Accent - Copper
Top - Smooth Stone
Trim - Accent Stone
Mid - Cut Stone
Body - Metal Panel
Base - Heavy Stone
The stone on the facade was chosen for a number of reasons. It aids with the longevity of the building, is one of the most common materials on downtown Oakland buildings, was a nod to traditional ballpark designs, and it was also arranged with an accent trim stone that created a sleek modern wall sweep. The dark colored metal panel helps to cast shadows as well as compliment the white stone. Finally, the copper accent was chosen referencing Shibe Park’s copper accent elements, as well as how it changes to a green patina over the long, sixty to one-hundred plus year, expected life span of the stadium.
