21ST CENTURY CONCEPTS AND THEMES Differentiated Learning: Students are individuals with unique learning requirements. To facilitate more effective, accelerated rates of learning, 21st Century education must respond to studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; individual learning needs. Some students work best as individual learners, while others prefer group arrangements. The current model of one instructor to many students in a 900 square-foot classroom does not provide sufficient opportunities for customized education. Multiple Modalities: To accommodate varied learning styles, educational facilities need to adapt to different spatial and learning arrangements, both inside and outside. 21st Century education evolves beyond the traditional classroom configuration and provides spaces that can respond to a variety of concurrent instructional actives, including team-building events, small group sessions, individual learning, and peer presentations. Sharing spaces increases the usefulness of each room by keeping them fully occupied for more hours of each day. Multidisciplinary Teaching: Providing students with ways to approach new subjects within the context of familiar and more approachable topics can enhance each studentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s access to, and interest in, learning. Synthesizing subject content across disciplines enhances critical thinking skills and creativity. As teachers assemble lesson plans, they have opportunities to explore and integrate cross curricular matter while simultaneously receiving and providing expert peer input via collaboration. This contributes to the professional development of the teachers and advanced learning opportunities for students. Real-world Skills Development: The ability to prepare students to be competitive in the real world is key to the success of the 21st Century learning program. To achieve this, learning environments provide access to hands-on instruction and opportunities for students to apply their knowledge and thinking while still providing a rigorous focus on core curricular competencies.

EXTERIOR DESIGN The exterior design creates a warm, upbeat, child friendly environment that appeals to adult sensibilities and blends comfortably into its immediate environment, the installation, and the forest. The exterior envelope provides generous views to the outdoors for all learning environments and large amount of indirect sunlight to the areas used by students. The vocabulary of the exterior design is a series of syncopated and staggered white panels separated by reveals and curtain walls. The construction of the wall system includes a cast in place concrete back up wall with a rain-screen panel system and a painted GWB interior face. Exterior glazing consists of a curtain-wall system where 20% of the glazing is operable windows. At the eastern and western exposures, a vertical sunshade is integrated into the window exterior. At all eastern, western and southern exposures a 40% frit pattern is integrated into the glazing. At the commons area, the facade is a structurally glazed staggered curtain wall with the horizontals supported by a steel beam along the interior. The curtain wall incorporates diagonals that echo the slope of the ground between the classroom wing and the specialty learning and administration wing as well as the slope of the metal panel enclosure around the mechanical and elevator overhang areas on the roof. The diagonal mullion at that condition represents a shift in depth as well as a change in the density of the frit. In the classroom wing, at the eastern elevation of the neighborhood faรงade, the curtain wall has staggered structurally glazed joints with a 40% frit dot pattern. In addition, due to the eastern exposure, the curtain wall is to have randomized vertical sunshades integrated into the system. The pattern may utilize the spandrel areas and opaque areas to create a more random pattern.

ARCHITECTURE

Due to constraints of a compact and steeply sloped existing site, the outdoor program wraps the building on all sides. The Arrival Terrace is on the east side, where, outside of bus drop-off and loading, it serves as a hard court play area. The north side Turf Play Area and the Equipment Play Areas connect to the East Terrace and to the west with a very shallow continuously sloped walk. The Kindergarten Play Area is on the west side and is connected to the southern Outdoor Educational Areas by a walkway.

Tucked into the existing naturalized areas south of the site and to the west of the existing High School is an area containing a nature walk, which connects the existing grate bridge over the creek outfall, up the far hill, and around to a new bridge connecting up and around to the South Court. The South Court contains one of two Learning Patios, which is used for dining and art projects. Stairs and ramps connect this area to the music amphitheater.

Several design themes have been identified that promote key learning concepts, synergies, and opportunities for learning in 21st Century schools. These themes suggest the following space types: general learning settings, common shared spaces, exploratory spaces, student support functions, building services, and outdoor spaces.

In the past, the spaces included in the general learning settings and common shared spaces would be a series of individual rooms connected by a corridor. It is envisioned that in the future these lines will be blurred with areas that will be transitional spaces serving multiple functions. Throughout the building, the driving considerations are: to make all spaces functional and support the overall educational program, to increase efficiency through multiple uses of spaces, and to eliminate compartmentalized operations.

The building orientation was chosen to maximize the north/south orientation of Learning Studios, while allowing some eastern oriented studios designed to mitigate the effects of the morning sun on glare in the studio spaces. During the design charrette it was determined that the most flexible configuration of neighborhoods would be to provide six (6) neighborhoods of varying sizes in a three story structure on the western part of the site. Each level of the bar has

two neighborhoods connected by a central “Flex” Studio with the ability to connect to either neighborhood. The lower level (-1) connects directly to grade and houses the youngest age levels, which also happen to be the largest. The entry level (0) has the 4th and 5th Grade, allowing the students to take advantage of the commons as an additional “project” space. Giving them a more direct connection to the commons augments the utilization of that space

in non-cafeteria hours. The upper level (1) houses the second and third graders in two four studio neighborhood with one “Flex” Studio between. This flex studio can provide both multi age and German immersion opportunities that have not existed before. Each floor of the three story neighborhood structure has restroom facilities, shared staff space, and shared student support space accessible by all students and teachers without disrupting the neighborhoods.

The Multi-Purpose Room (MPR) serves as a bridge, both figuratively and literally, connecting the neighborhoods to the Servery, Gym, and other shared ‘specials’ along the Learning Street. The Learning Street Commons also connects the MPR to the administrative area and main entry of the school. A secondary entry which enters directly into the MPR from the East Arrival Terrace would be for student use only during school hours at arrival, departure, and recess.

INTERIOR THEMING: The interior design reflects the exterior design in order to create consistency and continuity in the project. Much like the exterior, the interior is abstractly based on the idea of the broken verticality of the forest and its loose sense of randomness and variation bounded by structural regularity. THE COMMONS: The primary elements in the design of the commons are the screen wall that wraps the high volume of spaces; the floating wood acoustical ceiling panels at the higher ceiling and wood acoustical plank ceiling at the lower ceiling to the north; and the vertical surface wood elements at the columns. The screen recalls the exterior wall design and creates a staggered syncopated rhythm with alternating solid white blocks separated from each other by reveals and small vertical openings. The gaps between the blocks are covered with images of the woodland around the school. Different public areas within the school might receive different images with different colors. The image filled gaps begin to recall windows to other places, bring in color, and allow for an easy update if the school chooses to change color schemes or the photographic subject. Within the open ceiling, curvilinear shapes float at different heights and are constructed of acoustical plank ceilings. The floor pattern is formed with continuous sheet flooring and responds to the building columns rhythm and the large graphic element at the east elevation. THE LEARNING STREET The learning street is anchored by the stage that in form, material, and color recalls the floating ceiling panels. The stage is backed by the screen wall, which is designed as to appear continuous with the outside building skin, as if wrapping from the exterior into the interior as it enters the commons at the northeast corner of the two story music block. The walls of the learning street are designed as frames, and within each frame is inserted a functional element such as a bulletin board or a trophy case. Windows into the interior program form gaps between the functional element and the wall frame.

THIS PAGE: An axonometric Revit view of a typical neighborhood, showing the flexibility of the Learning Hub and adjacent Studio (classroom) spaces.

NEIGHBORHOOD: The building will include a series of general learning settings. Each general learning setting is to accommodate the main core academic spaces to support 75-100 students. The focus of the general learning setting is to reinforce teaming, collaboration, and project based learning. It is envisioned that technology will be integrated throughout to support individual learning, group learning, and access to external resources. Other features of the general learning setting include a â&#x20AC;&#x153;wet / scienceâ&#x20AC;? area, a teacher planning area, and a distance learning studio that can also be used for conferences and other small/medium size group functions. The space is intended to be extensively flexible and to be easily supervised from any location in the general learning setting. Spaces within the general learning setting can be separated by glass or moveable walls and furniture. PATCH ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

The design creates a warm, friendly, and welcoming ing exterior that blends with its environment and conforms to the design guidelines of the installation. ll tion It also performs as an environmental screen in order to create a well-lit interior environment, while eliminating the distracting effect of direct sunlight into the learning environment. The massing of the building creates two classroom wings that are mainly covered with a sloped roof along the southern elevations of the building. The remaining areas of the project have a visually flat (sloped sufficiently to drain) roof, with the exception of the one sloped roof area between the commons and the classroom wings. The sloped roof visually integrates into a screen attached to the roof overhang and the balconies along the southern wings. The building envelope is constructed of horizontal panels: wood, pale yellow and grey, to match installation color guidelines. The screen may be wood planks or linear metal components painted to match the wood facade panels. The density of the panel screens any direct sunlight from entering the learning environment while still allowing views to the outside. The screen along the southern exposures of the classroom wings is constructed with the planks running horizontally in order to address the southern exposure, while the screens along the east and west exposures are constructed with the planks running vertically to address the low sun angles along those exposures. The balconies are to be constructed with metal grate planks floors and light metal rail.

The planning of the building began with solar orientation and views. The building was sited to allow the majority of the core learning spaces in the neighborhoods to be oriented due north or due south. This is optimal for daylighting these spaces and increased user access to views. In the design charrette, it was determined that the most flexible configuration of neighborhoods is to provide four (4) neighborhoods of five (5) or six (6) learning studios each. This creates one kindergarten neighborhood and one 4th/5th grade neighborhood, with the remaining grades flexing within the remaining two neighborhoods. This allows for multi age teaching as well as teachers flexing and collaborating in more complimentary age groups. The two neighborhood wings connect back to the school at the Commons.

The Commons provides a connection to the Information Center, Computing Center, OT/ PT, Broadcast Room, Nurse, and Guidance Suite. These programs are the shared programs of the school. North of the Commons, is the Multi-Purpose Room (MPR). The MPR is part circulation space, part cafeteria, and part assembly space. The far end has connections to the Gymnasium, Stage, and Music Room as well as the servery for the food service. The east and west sides of the MPR have views and connect to the outdoors. North of the MPR, users can exit out to the learning patio and environmental learning setting at the north end of the site. Teacher shared spaces are centered on the Commons, and the Commons provides connections to administrative and student support spaces, which need to be functionally adjacent.

HEADQUARTERS FACILITY

ROOF AXON This 60,878 GSF Facility consists of a symmetrical two story Brigade Headquarters and a one story Language Training Facility for the 95th Civil Affairs Brigade. The architecture respects and reinforces the fundamental strength, discipline, dignity, intelligence, integrity, and adaptability of the United States Army and its Special Operations Forces’ Mission. The plans illustrate the understanding of the facilities operational requirements (with respect to Army Command staff working conditions) and functional relationships as necessary to support the Command’s facility mission. The building materials and finishes take into consideration compatibility with the proposed surrounding facilities, installation guidelines, acoustic control, cost effectiveness, life cycle maintenance, appearance, and sustainability. The building is a two story masonry, steel stud, and steel roof truss structure. The facility is constructed using brick and stucco. Precast concrete bands, accents, lintels, and sills are used to break down the scale of the façade and relate to adjacent buildings. Storefront is used at the main entrances to allow daylight into the building. The brick, used throughout the base, provides a durable finish which is both attractive and functional. The use, color, and exterior articulation of the brick and stucco is in harmony with and compatible to the architecture, aesthetics, and scale of the proposed future surrounding buildings and character of the Base.

RADIUS RECEPTION DESK

ARCHITECTURE

All renderings done in Revit, with post-processing in Photoshop.

DESIGN CONCEPT: The new reception desk creates a strong focal point for the lobby. The intent of the design is for it to stand out, while still feeling integrated and appropriate to the space. This is done through scale and the use of materials that relate to the existing wood, glass, and stainless steel as well as to the aesthetic of the furniture used throughout the public spaces in the building.

EXISTING WOOD AND CONCRETE DESK WITH WIREFRAME OVERLAY OF NEW DESIGN

MASSING: The massing of the design not only integrates the concrete of the current desk, but it also relates to a number of existing elements in the space. The design is both angular and curved; rigid and playful; heavy and light; and industrial and organic; corresponding to the character of the furniture, lights, wall paneling, and guardrails in the space as well as to the logo for the building itself.

WOOD: Medium to dark wood selection of either zebra wood or ebony wood with medium to dark heartwood and opposite or light color veining streaks ties the existing wall panels behind the reception desk to the dark wood used for the legs, arms, and backs of existing lounge seating. This primary face of the new reception desk will serve to unite the light and dark existing elements of the existing color palette.

MESH PRIVACY SCREEN: A mesh privacy screen provides a visual separation between the receptionistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work area and public space. Wire mesh, which is light and see-through, offers enough privacy to conceal the backs of the computer monitors and exposed wiring, but does not obscure a receptionistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s view of the main lobby entrance. By utilizing wire mesh as part of the privacy screen, the reception desk will continue the existing design language present in the lobby area, which is currently expressed with a stainless steel post and mesh infill panel ADA ramp.

WRITABLE GLASS SURFACE: Writable glass surface allows for a visually appealing, practical, and playful desktop material. It provides the functionality found in a vertical markerboard; affording the user the ability to leave a note for another receptionist, draw a sketch, or simply use it for the everyday desk-top surface. Writable glass surface is easy to clean and adds interest to the work area.

WHITE, BACK PAINTED GLASS: White, back painted and back-lit glass is utilized for the remainder of the lower desk; and provides a clean, modern, and elegant design aesthetic. If longevity of material is of primary concern, a substitute material can be chosen in the form of white resin. The resin is almost identical aesthetically to the white backpainted glass, but provides additional durability.

CLEAR GLASS: Clear glass is utilized for the wood transaction counter top and integrated magazine display surface. Clear glass will prevent long term scuffing and wear and tear of the wood surface. It provides a direct visual of the magazines displayed in the recessed niches underneath while keeping the work surface functional for writing and object setting functions.

Auto Hobby Shop

Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, NJ Design / Bid / Build ONYX This project involves the design and construction of a renovation for an Auto Hobby Shop. The original building was built in 1963. Several additions have occurred since, the last being in 1982. The building is 9,230 SF and has many limitations, including a roof that is too low to accommodate lifts; a lack of storage space; poor quality restrooms that are not ADA accessible; HVAC, electrical, and exhaust systems that need to be replaced; administrative, office, sales, and customer waiting spaces that are undersized; a lack of classroom space; and a generally unattractive exterior that detracts from the character of surrounding buildings.

ARCHITECTURE

The current Auto Hobby Shop is constructed of load bearing concrete masonry walls with a steel column and beam structure that supports the east-west span of the larger work bay area. The roof is constructed of 8â&#x20AC;? thick pre-cast hollow-core concrete planks covered with a gravel ballasted, built-up asphalt membrane roofing system. The new design includes renovating the service bays and office area of the Auto Hobby Shop, creating a well-lit two story space that allows for vehicle lifts in all bays and for a storage mezzanine over the expanded office area. Exterior storage, an upgrade of building systems,

and a new faĂ§ade for the entire facility are also part of the renovations. The goal of this project is to repair and renovate the space to provide a more comfortable, modern and functional work environment for customers and employees, while upgrading the aesthetics of the exterior to conform to the architectural language prevalent on the Base. BELOW: Aerial view showing added height, standing seam metal roof, and new brick and EIFS facade. OPPOSITE: Interior view of service bays.

These projects are located on the intelligence compound within Ft. Bragg and involved complete architecture and engineering design services for the development of two new buildings totaling approximately 190,000 GSF. The buildings mainly function as office and training spaces, although there are conference and operational command components. These projects allow affiliated branches and sections within the compound, currently operating in various buildings, to be consolidated. Each building was designed and engineered to meet USGBC LEED Silver Certification criteria. Other components of the design included SCIF space as well as complying with Anti-Terrorism Force Protection requirements. The facilities were function driven and required to conform to the severe precast concrete panel aesthetic of adjacent structures. However, some relief was able to be introduced through the facade texture, which is loosely based on an abstraction of camouflage.

ARCHITECTURE

The project consists of two parcels and is a symbolic extension of the Xiangjiang River through the dynamic interplay of building forms and landscape. The design solution connects the mixed-use complex to the river and acts as a visual gateway into the Hunan Changsha Xinhe Delta Project. The northern parcel contains a retail mall, a hotel, and an office building. The southern parcel contains residential towers with retail bases. The architectural language of this project articulates the metaphor of layers (strata) formed by the actions of the adjacent river. This layering expresses itself through horizontal glass banding and curved wall forms which symbolize the movement of the river. Solid forms that are curved and canted provide

glimpses into the internal uses, and define spaces of leisure and entertainment. Diversity is key to a successful urban experience. Diversity that appears to be developed over time creates real and authentic venues. In keeping with the language of curved geometry, the hotel rises and unfolds facing the river, offering a green edge to the waterfront. Vertical gardens are used to screen the summer sun on both the hotel and residential towers. The commercial buildings at the riverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s edge create a further expression of stratified forms through their horizontal emphasis and defined groupings. The angular geometry of the retail base gives dynamic definition to the open spaces it creates; inspiring a landscape concept of urban free form pavement areas with slick and refined

patterns which are alternated with rigorously controlled green spaces. Ultimately the link created from Xinhe Delta Projectâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s central plaza through the retail atrium, leading through the commercial heart to the rivers retail promenade, will create a cultural and commercial heart for the City of Changsha that encourages a pedestrian-friendly environment and emphasizes the value of sustainable design principles, thus creating a world-class river front community. Graphics and presentation boards were developed in InDesign. The elevations were taken from a Sketchup model and rendered in Photoshop. The perspective views used the Sketchup model and were rendered professional professionally.

ARCHITECTURE

A1 HOTEL

The main plaza is the heart of the project, layering of uses and forms, creating a gradual massing. The concept makes reference to the existing cultural buildings through the use of warped and angular forms, contrasted against inviting curved plans that define major plazas and entries. Building forms are synthesized in a sculptural arrangement and focused around the new heart of the development, This creates a vibrant urban space for residents and visitors to engage and interact. Layering of levels and angular forms in an organic formation resemble layers of soil deposited at the river’s edge. The landscaped plaza surrounded by shops and restaurants also provides a pedestrian connection from retail development to the elevated riverside promenade. This central civic space is the heart of a composition of horizontal retail masses with vertical towers of office, hotel, and residential.

The retail base is formed of layers, as if deposited by the river over time. The different layers provide open sight lines into the project and create opportunities for retail to engage the surrounding context. These dynamic tiers create a visual harmony with the adjacent sites and provide opportunities for lushly planted green roofs. The main retail building is defined by the department store, in-line shops, food court, and movie theater, which are arranged to create a dynamic form with a curvilinear façade. The retail shops help animate the urban plaza with a variety of tenants, including cafes and bistros. The retail building’s dynamic expression gives rise to the form of the building’s green roof. This major sustainable element and civic garden acts as an additional raised public space for the entire development.

The focal point of the civic plaza is the office tower, which rises as a visual expression of the heart concept through its enclosing curved form. The idea of a tower embedded in rock is the origin for all of the geometry in the main commercial plaza and creates the most important focal point for the project. Patterned curtainwall on the tower’s west elevation echoes the concept of stratified earth and rock using multiple colors and textures of clear, colored, and spandrel glass.

On the adjacent parcel to the North, there are a variety of shopping venues that include indoor and outdoor environments with varying scales. Outdoor retail and restaurants focused around the commercial heart of the project is bolstered by an indoor retail shopping area linked to outdoor traditional small-scaled markets. Other two story and one story retail plazas are linked together by the retail river promenade.

The concept of the Lobby was based on the exterior landscape design, and strove to extend the organic and playful lines of the exterior pathways and water features into the interior of the building. Materials include limestone, slate, and wood veneer to complement the existing buildings on the campus. The floor pattern is an example of how the lobby is quite literally intended to provide a connection between the entry and the courtyard sides of the building.

GENENTECH Laptop Skin

Genentech’s mission is to develop medicines for difficult to treat conditions, including cancer, so the core of the design was inspired by the shape of an antibody. This “Y” shape of an antibody is used to form a system / network / underlying structure and represents the vast amounts of data (customer behavior) that form the basis for the department’s analyses(objective insights) that will guide the client. In this web, shapes connecting the various pieces of data become

more discernible and defined, representing insights and solutions that are being formed from analysis of the data. Density increases and draws the observer’s eye to the words, “Marketing Science”. The colors used are identifiable with the Genentech brand: dark blue and a font similar to the Genentech logo is used for the antibody structure and name of the department, and the translucent greens used to represent the forming of solutions relates to the greens of the DNA motif used on the company website.

Th design was not completed as the company preferred to The brand the department as whole, rather than as individual teams. br

ARMY TEN-MILER TT-shirt sh Contest Entry

The goal of the design for an Army Ten-Miler t-shirt was not only to create a fun logo that embodies the pride and significance of the event; but also to make it feel like a graphic tee that could be found on U Street or in Georgetown; thus capturing both the artsy and civic sides of the city within the design. The image is meant to be read at several levels. As first glance, the iconic shape of DC is dominant; as one looks closer, the camouflage and the text appear and one starts to understand the connection to the Army; and, finally, the detail of the runner and DC lan landmarks emerge. Army Arm camouflage has evolved, now having a more contemporary digital and pixelated look. The e t-shirt design builds on this idea to provide a graphic and modern design. Army gold is the basis bas for the colors in the design, and the Army Ten-Miler logo is incorporated into the design by using the running path of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Râ&#x20AC;? to connect to three of the landmarks that the course passes by: the Capitol, the Washington Monument, and the Pentagon. pass
