In this open-ended, community based studio with a wide range of project types my classmates and I

worked together to revitalize the Cincinnati community of South Cumminsville through architectural means. In partnership with W.I.N. (Working in Neighborhoods) we worked with members of the community to pinpoint locations of opportunity and need within the old Cincinnati neighborhood that has seen a lot of adversity. Up until the 1940s this northside community of Cumminsville was bustling with activity, business, and opportunity; as was much of the country post Great Depression. That was until the highway system was instated with I-75, and the mostly African American South Cumminsville was cut off from North Cumminsville. This resulted in huge disparity between the 2 sides of Cumminsville, with South Cumminsville seeing continued loses in revenue and population throughout the years.

The residents of South Cumminsville have strong roots that stem from family ties and a continued drive to

uphold their community and ways of life. W.I.N. has continued to work within the community to help further these goals, and has their headquarters set up in the beautiful community church. From here South Cumminsville hosts community events and plans for the future of the small town. As a class we were able to attend town halls with residents, see how at home rudimentary green design was being used, and build a connection. From all of this information each student was tasked with presenting anything architecture or design related that they believed could help the community in its goals of future prosperity.

The project that I came up with was broken up into 2 parts. Phase 1 consisted of reusing existing space

to set up co-ops and a local community market to promote business. Phase 2 was the construction of a community center that could help build out the corner of Borden and Dreman and set up a central location for South Cumminsville to continue to build off of in the future. Connecting these projects would be a living street that could be used for community events, helping clear up some space at W.I.N. and giving the community a proper location for celebration.

The community center was designed as a multi-use 2 story structure, with community space on the first

floor, and community based housing on the second floor. Cut into the corner of the plot was a rest area that would allow a place of respite. In order to make the intersection still feel full a skin was used to fill out the space. This skin was also used as a means of creating continuity between the living street and the community center, opening up the space to the community. Glazing walls and warm wood interiors were the main features of the first floor to add transparency and to make the space feel welcoming. These glazing walls were set back as a passive heating technique while allowing the daylight to still show through. As the permeable pavers transition into concrete slab floors you feel the living street and community center become one continuous space.

The second floor greets you with a raised outdoor terrace that overlooks the street intersection. Inside

are private apartment spaces that would be upkept and owned by W.I.N. as a means of revenue or to help struggling community members. The roof of the structure is dotted with community gardening plots to improve on the overall heat footprint, and to give the community a reliable gardening space. The produce made here can be used and sold within the community market mentioned during phase one. This whole project is about strengthening a community, and giving them a space to continue to build upon and prosper.

In this short (4 week) project each student was tasked with designing a rowhouse to fill the needs of a

specific client, and given a plot along the Ohio River. Across the river one could see the Cincinnati skyline with a great view of the Great American Ball Park. My clients were a family of 4; a husband, wife, and 2 kids who all had very different and independant lifestyles. The husband was a successful musician who often ran classes out of home and needed space to continue doing this. The wife was a lawyer who often worked from home and needed an at home office space with privacy. The kids were in highschool and needed spaces to host friends and live out normal highschool lifestyles.

The main goal of this project became finding means of balancing public and private space while taking

advantage of the beautiful views being provided. This project utilizes two programatic forms, one which holds most of the public space, and a secondary terraced form that uses split levels to create a heirarchy of public and private space. These forms work with one another to create a dynamic interior and exterior environment that focuses on views of the downtown Cincinnati skyline while also taking into consideration privacy and lighting needs.

When first entering the rowhouse one is greeted with a terraced atrium space that creates an immediate

visual connection to more public areas of the house. Spliting the front and back of house is a circulation core that acts as a means of seperating the 2 portions of the house and connecting like spaces. Taking the staircase in the atrium will lead one into public living spaces and on the top floor a large open room that doubles as a space for hosting guests and music students alike. This space provides the best view possible of downtown Cincinnati with a large glazing wall opening up the house to the beautiful river and cityscape.

If one chooses to move towards the back of the house rather than staying in the front you will find more

family centric private spaces. Using the circulation core as a buffer these spaces are discouraged from being entered by any guests unfamiliar with the space. The most private of these spaces being the bedrooms and at home office are placed at the back of the house, and the furthest away from possible guests and noise. This home provides for every family members private needs while continuing to be a place to build and maintain a healthy family lifestyle.

The mission of this studio was to create a master plan for the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden using

remaining land that has been purchased by the zoo over the years. This underdeveloped land is located north of the existing zoo grounds and is home to a vacant parking lot and many old homes that are in disrepair. Measuring nearly 40 acres this plot of land located between Forest Avenue and Vine Street is in close proximity to the local community of Avondale. The overreaching goal of this project was to use this plot as a means of interweaving the zoo and community in a meaningful way that could benefit both parties. Each group was tasked with creating a community center, greenhouse, and other zoo amenities on the given plot.

The theming of the new exhibits was to be an Asian animal exhibition housing elephants, pandas,

gibbons, tigers and more. This new area was to be tied into the existing zoos pathing and overall theme of using new sustainable technologies to provide a healthier environment. These technologies included implementing existing technologies used by the zoo such as permeable pavement with water storage systems, solar panels, and planned wetlands; as well as new technologies to the site like rammed earth walls. These technologies would be put at the forefront of our design as a means to help the environment while also educating the community and zoo guests on sustainable design

Throughout the design process the Living Building Challenge was used as reference for sustainable

building practices with the overall goal of reaching Net-Zero Energy use and Net-Zero Water use. The stringent guidelines of the LBC resulted in a research oriented studio in order to figure out the efficacy of many unique passive and active design strategies. Sefaira, an energy and daylight modeling program, was used with Revit to allow thoughtful energy solutions to evolve throughout the time in this studio. The overall idea was to allow design and energy decisions to inform each other in an fast paced and evolving process.

In our scheme, we pushed the community center and restaurant to the west side of the lot, closest to

the busier Vine street portion of the site. An open plaza area allowed the community to mingle in an open market setting connecting Avondale to the Cincinnati Zoo. This then transitions into a promenade up the steps of the community center and into a newly designed second entrance to the zoo. This was designed to be grand and feel welcoming to incoming guests, local as well as out-of-towners.

We proposed to have the greenhouse tucked away along Forest, in order to provide an easy pass

through route for delivery trucks bringing goods in and out of the space. This was viewed as a more private space than the community center. Filling in the space between the 2 built areas was a wetland that could hold excess water from the zoos runoff and natural springs. The greenhouses limited water treatment could then intake these water sources and use it to provide healthy plants and vegetables for the community surrounding it. Each step of this process would be made visible to guests allowing for an educational experience for those visiting the Cincinnati Zoo.

MONOLITH

The monolith was created as an object of interesting shape that fits in and to the scale of the

human hand. Constructed of many wooden layers the monolith was machine carved and hand sanded for over 30 hours to achieve the perfect level of smoothness, lacking any imperfections that could be felt by human touch.

In partnership with the City of Napa Planning Division, FORGE was tasked with helping to create a

revised master plan and preliminary designs for a new waterfront complex along the Napa River in downtown Napa, CA. This project was to include a mingling of private and public spaces and buildings that respected existing histories and structures in the local vacinity. Located in the heart of downtown along 2 main corridors for the city this was the perfect location to bring people together, and showcase the culture and ingenuity of the people of Napa. The process was to be open and forward to the public, and would include local townhalls where the people of Napa were able to provide input into the new construction planning.

This project was unique in that it was not only about architecture, but also heavily dabbled into urban

planning and other design aspects. The revised master plan for the city was to respect existing law while also bringing it into the new age of planning and architecture. This caused this project to be research heavy, and include many examples of existing plans and structures throughout the city. Due to this it became similar to a case study in the existing histories of construction, cultures, and plans for the city of Napa. However, as stated much research also went into looking at new technologies and ideas, and finding ways to allow them to mingle with the old ways.

While I was at FORGE the project had already been underway for some time and I was specifically tasked

with creating massing models and easily digestible diagrams for an upcoming townhall presentation. This was all done in SketchUp with lots of open dialogue with the Project Manager. In total 5 conceptual massing models were created to give an idea of what the city residents were to expect from upcoming construction plans. Each model included varying structures from parking garages and residential homes to mixed use and commercial structures, that could easily and clearly show the phasing of construction over time.

To go along with the 2-d presentation a physical model was constructed to allow residents to play around

and give constructive critisism in a meaningful and positive manner. All of these models and research were brought together and presented to the residents of Napa. It was unique and gratifying experience to meet with the people of Napa and to be able to speak to them about what we were doing.
