ERIN PELLEGRINO Selected Works


Erin Pellegrino is currently a designer practicing in New York City. She is a graduate of the Harvard Graduate School of Design with a Masters of Architecture II and Cornell University’s College of Architecture, Art and Planning with a professional Bachelors of Architecture. With a varied and vast background in Design+Build projects and small scale interventions, Erin’s work has been recognized internationally. Recently, she was awarded a Design Honor Award by the American Institute of Architects, New England for the Alpine Shelter project in Slovenia. She was also awarded the Paul M. Heffernan Travel Fellowship, to travel and build the project in the Julian Alps. She has participated in lectures at IUAV in Venice, Italy, the Harvard Graduate School of Design, UVA in Charlottesville, Virginia, and at the Anchorage Museum in Alaska. Most recently, Alpine Shelter Skuta was awared a Core77 Award for architecture in the built environment, and was featured on the cover of Phaidon Press’s publication, Environmental Living. Described as a “maker and a thinker with a strong emotive dimension to her work”, Erin Pellegrino is interested in the human qualities of space. She graduated from Cornell University’s Bachelor of Architecture in 2014 where her design excellence was recognized with the Charles Goodwin Sands Memorial Medal for her thesis on architecture and perfume. MiniCity Detroit was awarded first prize in Redesigning Detroit, a competition for the redesign of a vacant city block in Detroit, Michigan. In spring 2013, she was nominated to represent Cornell University’s Bachelor of Architecture program for the AIANYS student work competition. She has also been awarded both the Seipp Prize and York Prize, also from Cornell University. In the summer of 2011, Erin traveled to South Africa as a part of a Design + Build team to construct an early education crèche in Johannesburg. Other projects include a collaboration with Jake Rudin on a renovation of a Richard Meier home in Ithaca, NY, which was awarded a Historic Ithaca Preservation Award.




ALPINE SHELTER SKUTA

Project Type: Design/Build Collaboration with OFIS Arhitekti, Frederick Kim and Katie MacDonald Summer 2015 The bivak is an object that represents a basic human necessity, a shelter. It is a symbol of refuge. The outer form and choice of materials were chosen to respond to the extreme mountain conditions, and also provide views to the greater landscape. Its position within the wilderness requires respect for natural resources, so the foundations are as minimal as possible as the object is temporary in nature. The design of the interior dictates modesty, totally subordinate to the function of the shelter. It provides shelter and accommodation for up to eight mountaineers. The project developed from a design studio led by OFIS partners Rok Oman and Spela Videcnik at the Harvard Graduate School of Design. In fall 2014, a studio of thirteen students tackled the challenges of designing an innovative yet practical shelter to meet the needs of the harsh alpine climate. Inspired by the vernacular architecture of Slovenia with its rich and diverse architectural heritage, the chosen project was designed by Frederick Kim, Katie MacDonald, and myself. The design consists of three modules, in part to allow for transport and also to programmatically divide the space The first module is designated for entry, storage and preparation of a modest dinner. The second module allows for both sleeping and socializing, with beds that face each other for communal eating and gathering.. The last is module is dedicated to sleeping, and from both sides of the shelter, one can experience the panoramic views of both Skuta, the valley, and the city of Ljubljana.

Project Type: New Construction/Renovation Role: Junior Designer New York, NY June 2016 - Ongoing The New JTS Building is designed to be an approximately 90,000gsf building located within the JTS campus on Broadway between 122nd Street and 123rd Street in Manhattan. The surrounding Morningside Heights neighborhood houses several other institutions of higher learning, including Columbia University, Barnard College, the Manhattan School of Music and The Union Theological Seminary. It is anticipated that, in terms of construction quality and operational efficiency, the project will equal or surpass comparable institutional buildings constructed in the vicinity during the past five to ten years. The project seeks to bring a sense of campus and community to JTS. The light court centralizes the community to access the new spaces for discussion and learning. These include a new Auditorium and Performance Space, Presentation and Seminar Rooms, an exterior courtyard space for the annual Sukkot, and a state of the art Library to house their rare book collection. My role in the project has seen both schematic design completion, design development completion, and various coordination roles.

PITCH

Design Miami Finalist

Project Type: Competition Collaboration with Mikhail Grinwald, Katie MacDonald, & Jake Rudin; Engineering: AKT II Miami, Florida May 2015 Welcoming all to Design Miami, Pitch takes the vinyl tent as a provocation, not to reconsider the canopy as an overhead shelter, but to rethink the ground—to pitch the tent upsidedown as a landscape. Visitors enter and exit the fair over, under, and through a geometric landscape that is both familiar and unexpected: structurally and materially similar to the existing tents, yet habitable and spatial in new ways. Sloped surfaces provide shaded seating for events and leisure, framing a courtyard and reorienting the entrance toward the Botanic Garden, Convention Center and the ocean. The interior surfaces of the pavilion are covered in low-resilience polyurethane ‘memory’ foam, which provides a safe and comfortable surface for play and relaxation. During the week of the show, the constant deformation of the foam is gradually imprinted on its surface and becomes a record of the event. In addition to the two existing Design Miami tents, the underside of the large slope is used as a partially enclosed public exhibition space. This ‘third tent’ will feature work from the Harvard Graduate School of Design, and will extend the fair-going experience to all visitors. Pitch is a play on the materiality and geometry of the tents as its immediate context, but also as widely recognizable features of Design Miami. At the conclusion of the fair, the pavilion will be recycled; the steel and aluminum will be processed at local facilities and the PVC membrane will be cut and manufactured into Design-Miami branded umbrellas, as a final iteration of the tent particularly well-suited to Miami’s beach culture. Pitch is a mediating interface—a vibrant public platform for Design Miami. Like a landscape, Pitch is illusory. From one view, it seems to extend out from the tents. From another, it is an excavation. The Design Miami logo is similarly animated as an anamorphic projection, coming into and out of alignment as visitors approach and enter the pavilion. After circulating through the exhibitions, fair-goers exit the tent into a small oasis and join passersby on the slopes. This new terrain is a destination against the flat ocean horizon so familiar to Miami—a space of gathering and exploration.



SCHOOLHOUSE SOUTH AFRICA Project Type: Design+Build Cornell University Sustainable Design Structural Systems, Spring 2012 The built project is a product of a two year process orchestrated by Cornell University Sustainable Design, an interdisciplinary student-led organization at Cornell University. Students, with the help of academic advisors and industry professionals, executed the project through a semester of research, a semester of design development integrated into the Bachelor of Architecture comprehensive design studio curriculum, and three months of construction. My design was chosen to adapt into the final build project. We collaborated with local partners in construction and education to refine the design. I was one of thirty student volunteers traveled to South Africa to construct the school alongside local laborers from the surrounding neighborhood, Cosmo City. Strong emphasis was placed on sustainable passive sustainable technologies to decrease cost and energy dependency. Conscientious decisions in resiliency are found in all dimensions of the project: the architectural design, construction methods, material production and purchasing, included facilities, project financing and day-to-day operations. A year after construction, the ECD center was still not connected to the grid. However, teachers and students explained that these passive technologies create a bright, warm, and efficacious school without the use of electricity, regardless of the lack of local infrastructure. This project was completed with generous support from Cornell University, in partnership with Education Africa, PlayWith-A-Purpose, Basil Read Developments, and the City of Johannesburg.



SCHOOLHOUSE SOUTH AFRICA



Project Type: Competition, First Prize Collaboration with Davide Marchetti Architetto Spring 2013 Using the surrounding urban fabric as the generator for a new vision of the city, MiniCity Detroit utilizes the historic and present urban conditions to materialize a concept that directly responds to the site. Bringing the existing physical form and history into the plan, the conditions set by the site provide a framework for renewal. At the pedestrian level a new urban space is formed; conceived of as the extension of Woodward Avenue, providing a space for transition as well as an active urban core. Both above and below, an elevated platform for public events such as fairs, outdoor markets, music concerts and festivals is introduced to the proposal. The design pulls the existing urban grid into the site to generate the driving axes of the scheme, allowing for a merging of both the historic city and its potential as a new addition to the woodward avenue corridor. The high-rise extrudes from this framework in an industrial red brick-style, inserted as a new architectural addition to the Detroit skyline.

Collaboration with Katie MacDonald Kirkland Gallery Cambridge, Massachusetts April 2015 Fossa Olfactoria manifests smell as both an olfactory and tactile experience. While scent is oft unexplored or completely omitted from serious discussions of architecture, scent and odor shape experience, occupancy, and comfort in powerful ways. This installation brings the viewer into the epicenter of olfactory experience - the spatial cavity where the olfactory bulb is located playing on notions of scale, phenomena, and bodily experience. An immersive, fleshy fabric membrane obscures an undulating massing of one thousand balloons. The balloons act as both sculptors of space and vessels of scent. Each balloon contains a drop of lavender oil which is released into the air as the balloons deflate, producing a pulsing wall that diffuses scent gradually.
