The Solstice Project

Page 2

The main purpose of this project was to take an existing building and repurpose it for the next AIA headquarters while meeting AIA COTE top ten measures and minimizing carbon footprint. In this case the building is located at 1022 10th street, Sacramento, California 95814. The building is a 16,000 sf building. With my design the new indoor space square footage is 14, 825. The renovated design consists of a mixed-use space having public spaces on the ground floor and private spaces, such as the office space, are on the second level. The public spaces are meant to connect with the community with the space. On the ground floor there is a café, gallery, bookstore, lounge area, and multi-purpose room where the public can come in and relax while connecting with the space. The multi-purpose room will have public classes and presentations. There are various easy ways to commute to the site: biking, transit, walking. The data provided by Walk Score states; bike score is 98, transit score is 67, and walk score is 95.
