proposal 1 What the Hex Pavilion, located at Reiman Gardens in Ames, is an interactive and eye-catching feature. The combination of color-refracting curved walls and a circulatory pathway links the structure to the pre-existing path, echoing the beauty of Reiman Gardens itself. Visitors walk past the hand-activated railings to enter a center space, which includes a playful rope curtain and informational panels.

proposal 2 Pixel8 is an interactive pavilion influenced by the natural forces of growth and human interaction. The playful, yet elegant design compliments the landscape and draws people of all ages. Each form is constructed of modular cubes to be easily assembled or disassembled. Pixel8 encourages exploration around the site and gives people the incentive to “take the path less traveled”.

Rox Box utilizes musical acts to bond the college community together with and local citizens of Ames at Main Street. Touring groups rent Rox Box as a place to stay while on tour in the Ames area, doubling as a performance stage in and of itself. Three intertwined rectilinear practice rooms make up the front facade. Retractable screens cover the front of Rox Box, and can be removed during outdoor performances. By utilizing the front facade as a stage itself, observers on Main Street in instantly become audience members.

process
Trapezium Gallery is designed as an art gallery or display space for artists to present their personal work in a convenient and cultivated location, Chicago, Illinois. The audacious facades reconstruct the basic cube structure by being completely composed of trapezoidal shapes. The facades also follow the 20x40x60x80 criteria; each number representing a percentage of open to close. For example, the north elevation has 80% windows, allowing for more soft sunlight to shine inwards. Meanwhile, the east elevation only has 20% windows, considering this is the side that gets the most direct sunlight. wind
