2050 MASTER PLAN FIFTH YEAR PROJECT ARCH G5955 FALL 2014 PROFS. FITHIAN / CRICCHIO PROJECT DETAILS:
LOCATION: UNIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA, SOUTH CAMPUS, NORMAN, OK PROJECT TYPE: GROUP MASTER PLAN w/ JESSICA UNDERWOOD and ANNIE KIENTZ SIZE: 25,000 SQ FT, 5 FLOORS PROGRAMS: AUTOCAD, SKETCHUP, and PHOTOSHOP
PROJECT DESCIRPTION:
The Group Master Plan assignment tasked us to densify the south campus of the University of Oklahoma. The idea was to think about what the campus, and Norman in general, would be like in the year 2050. At the current time, projection for 35 years from now show the population of Norman is expected to double, and the university will quadruple. Thus, densification of the area will be necessary. We designed our Master Plan to be subdivided into districts, each with its own identity and sense of place. Although each of these districts is distinct, they share a common experience. Through the process of collage, each district is modeled after some of our favorite cities. Because our main concept was based on division of areas, we needed to come up with an element to physically join them. What started as a swath of open green space evolved into a monumental, elevated, pedestrian highway, which we termed the GreenBolt. We foresaw this GreenBolt as becoming a major space of attraction for people to gather, and therefore something that would drive the design of everything around it.

CONCRETE ART MUSEUM FIFTH YEAR PROJECT ARCH G5955 FALL 2014 - SPRING 2015 PROFS. FITHIAN / CRICCHIO PROJECT DETAILS:
LOCATION: UNIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA, SOUTH CAMPUS, NORMAN, OK BUILDING TYPE: MIXED-USE SIZE: 25,000 SQ FT, 5 FLOORS PROGRAMS: AUTOCAD, REVIT, SKETCHUP, and PHOTOSHOP
PROJECT DESCIRPTION:
This project started from a master plan that we designed in groups for the future of a densified University of Oklahoma in Norman, OK. From that master plan, the scope of the project was only limited by square footage and height requirements: 25,000-35,000 sq. ft., and 2-5 floors. Tasked with coming up with my own program and building typology, I decided to design a museum for concrete art, with a concrete design studio, and offices and apartments for faculty- and artists-in-residence. A defining element of the master plan is the elevated, green, pedestrian highway, termed the GreenBolt, which runs from main campus down through south campus. As it is the main pedestrian thoroughfare for the area, the idea for the site of the project was to place the building next to the GreenBolt to take advantage of the traffic, and by doing so ensuring that the GreenBolt level of the museum is the main public entrance. To gain access to the views of the pedestrian highway required that the main programmed spaces be on the third level and up. The form of the building was derived from the original master plan’s collage design and the concrete art concept. From there it underwent a process of parti sketches combined with the driving force of the GreenBolt and its say on the design. To stay true to the concept the materials heavily consist of concrete construction.

ELM STREET STUDENT CENTER and GARAGE FOURTH YEAR PROJECT ARCH 4855 SPRING 2014 PROF. BOZORGI PROJECT DETAILS:
LOCATION: UNIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA, NORMAN, OK BUILDING TYPE: MIXED-USE and PARKING GARAGE SIZE: 50,000 SQ FT, 5 FLOORS PROGRAMS: AUTOCAD, REVIT, SKETCHUP, and PHOTOSHOP
PROJECT DESCIRPTION:
A big issue for the University of Oklahoma is a lack of parking, so the program for this project centered on a potential future development for the school that includes a parking garage capable of handling 700 spots and a mixed use project that brings commercial investors and a student center. The site is a current flat parking lot on Elm Street just north of Lindsey. As the parking requirements were the most restrictive part of the program, the design of the garage came first, considering how much room would be left for the mixed use project. The garage is a central ramp with one-way traffic to promote a safe traffic flow. The form of the mixed use development is influenced by a series of study models and car studies, creating angles that jut in and out. A green wall is incorporated on the west side to mitigate the tough southwestern sun. Materials are the traditional OU brick to compliment the surrounding campus and to offset the differences of the form. Double volume spaces are used to create a sense of community.

THE HILLS of KCMO FOURTH YEAR PROJECT ARCH 4755 FALL 2013 PROFS. YOWELL / BUTKO PROJECT DETAILS:
LOCATION: 700 E 12TH ST, KANSAS CITY, MO BUILDING TYPE: MIXED-USE SIZE: 45,000 SQ FT, 4 FLOORS PROGRAMS: AUTOCAD, REVIT, SKETCHUP, and PHOTOSHOP
PROJECT DESCIRPTION:
Kansas City, MO, is a dynamic city with districts that create waves of energy that radiate outward. It is as if that energy from the Power and Lights Disrict to the City Market to the Country Club Plaza forms the hills that Kansas City sits on, undulating to build the unique terrain. The concept behind the Hills of KCMO is derived from that landscape. The roof emulates a hill that runs with the others of the city, while the facade features overhangs that roll with the roof and allow for the greenery from the living walls to creep over to imitate hills. The first floor is for commercial use, with the second and third floors for residential tenants. And the fourth floor is dedicated to mechanical space and tenant storage.

TRAVEL
LIFE-LONG PROJECT 1991-2015 ELIZABETH J PLUNKETT PROJECT DETAILS:
LOCATIONS: CANADA, GERMANY, GREAT BRITAIN, IRELAND, SPAIN, USA TRAVEL TYPE: STUDENT AMBASSADOR PROGRAM, STUDY ABROAD, VACATIONS
PROJECT DESCIRPTION:
Travel is something that I relish the opportuity to take. A big goal in life for me is to see as much of the world as I can. Germany and Spain are the most recent places that I have traveled to. I went to Germany with a study abroad program from the University of Oklahoma, College of Architecture, Division of Interior Design. Germany: Health, Culture, and Design allowed us to explore places and relate compare the design and culture of the place to what we are used to in the United States. My trip to Spain was a personal backpacking trip which allowed me to experience and explore the country without a structured program to follow. I believe that traveling has allowed me to broaden my outlook on the world and helped me to better understand design.
