PENNDESIGN / FALL 2012 CRIT / SCOTT ERDY & McHENRY
Philly Homeless Shelter is a residential project designed for homeless people, more specifically those who are going through transitional phases from living on streets to owning their houses. Various career programs are provided to the homeless people who are accepted as the residents. For example, a cafe, a bookstore, a thrift store and other retail programs will be placed on the ground floor, providing services to the public as well as career opportunities for homeless individuals who are willing to work to change their lives. Programs that are more specific to the homeless individuals such as legal services or medical check-up services are located from the second level to the third level. All the residential units will be located in the upper part of the building, providing them with the maximum natural sunlights and privacies. The programs run from six months to two years depending on the individual, so the residential units are to accommodate different sizes of people with different lengths of the stays. The purpose of these programs which should be reflected in the design of the building is to provide one-stop services in which the homeless individuals can explore and learn to live on their own again, hence encouraging a breaking a chain of poverty.

market street
The project site is located on 30th st. and Chestnut st., one of the busiest streets in Philadelphia. With a high traffic rate to North and a five-stories parking garage to South, the main question was how to provide privacy without affecting natural lights to the residents as much as possible. The site is also surrounded by large scale buildings, giving off atmospheres of commercial district rather than residential district. Therefore, a scale which can fit into the surroundings, yet provides more humane and cosy environment is to be studied and implemented. On the next page, massing strategy diagram shows how a big front wall is used not only to provide privacy and noise-reducing effects, but also to fit into surrounding scales. However, separating each units, not constrained to walls create smaller scales and individualities. The walls are also used to be part of structures where the building units are puncturing through and circulation is embedded sometimes.

BUILDING FORMATION + STRUCTURES To bring the natural lights inside of the walls as much as possible, the total area of core and circulation path is to be minized. To reach this goal, the elevator is only to be stopped every other level. All the residential units are then designed to be two levels, one with its entrance on its first floor and the other with its entrance on its second floor. Four single occupancy units form one locking combination with sharing its space for stairs. Two family occupancy units in a locking position form one configuration with sharing its space for stairs. This is exaplined in the diagrams on the right.

EUNJEE HONG SPR 2014 PENNDESIGN
NEW YORK CITY, USA PENNDESIGN / SPR 2014 CRIT / MARION WEISS & MANFREDI Campus, originated from a Latin word for “field,” traditionally stood for physical land on which group of academic institutes are situated. The meaning of the word, however, calls for a need of periodic redefinition as what society seeks from the academics changes constantly. As the importance of technology in our lives are becoming more significant, demands for experts in the field is increasing, and a prime example of this is California’s Silicon valley. Due to turnover rate of technology, new development or discovery requires fast application and distribution. Bringing students, faculties, developers, startups and entrepreneurs to the same ground makes this possible and that becomes the new role of campus nowadays. In addition, Roosevelt Island’s proximity to New York City allows constant dialogues between consumers and producers/developers. The new type of campus, then, requires a flexible and expandable system to accommodate a potential rapid growth as well as interactive space where all the different types of users can work in collaboration. Using the grid as a tool for designing the system of growth and interconnection, (name of the project) makes this possible. Modular system of grid and circulation network were brought and reinterpreted from ideas from Le Corbusier’s Venice hospital and Cornell Weill/ Rockefeller University/ Sloan Kettering Institute. Phasability of the system is the key concept which allows for the campus to grow at its own pace, with each phase rendering a feeling of completeness. Predetermined and reiteration of grid expansion yields more efficient and optimized growth, redefining the boundary at every phase. Hence, the campus is no more

NYC ENOLOGY INSTITUTE “VERTICAL TERROIR” NEWYORK CITY, USA
EUNJEE HONG SPR 2013 PENNDESIGN
PENNDESIGN / SPR 2013 CRIT / MATIAS DEL CAMPO The word oenology is derived from the Greek οἶνος - oinos, “wine,” and the suffix -λογία, -logia, “study of.” It is the science and study of all aspects of wine and winemaking except vine-growing and grapeharvesting, which is a subfield called viticulture. “Viticulture & oenology” is a common designation for training programs and research centers that include both the “outdoors” and “indoors” aspects of wine production. This project primarily focus on the “indoors” aspects of Enology. The Enology Institute of New York is an educational institution for the professionals as well as the wine aficionados. It comprises of seminar spaces, laboratories, offices, shops, restaurants with wine-tasting rooms, a gravitational experimental winery and a training wine-cellar demonstrating the variations in wine storage both industrial as well as gastronomic. The educational programs include plant physiology and microbiology, which call needs for specific spatial conditions such as laboratories and green houses. The project site is located on 570 8th Avenue, Manhattan New York. The Hypothesis of the studio suggests the demolition of the current building to make space for a mid-rise building to house the Enology Institute.

The design concept is to utilize different characteristics of liquid in all design scales from slab formation, structures, circulations and even to the facade. Environmental factors of the site such as weather, sun direction, soil, and pedestrian traffics etc. are carefully studied. Different strengths of viscosity factor is assigned to each factor and then spread throughout the site. Depending on the characteristic of the factor, it either pulls in, or pushes out, eventually creating undulating slabs. Some of the overlapping areas of the slabs are cut and used as the locations for vertical circulation. These include space for elevators, stairs, and ramps. Some of them are removed to create vertical atrium. Facades are designed to imitate water splashing effects, which is also related to viscosity of the liquids. The location of the apertures are determined to accommodate the programs inside. Then, water splashing effects are created onto these predetermined volumes. The result is bigger voids of predetermined areas and many smaller apertures around these, naturally creating graduation between no aperture to bigger apertures throughout the building.

An atrium on 16th floor is filled with vine trees which function as garden for visitors on 17th floor and as lab/ classroom for students of wine institute on 16th floor. A big aperture in both outer skin and inner layer of the facade brings natural light into the building.
Main Entrance Two entrances on South and West acts as a shortcut pathway for pedestrians walking on 40th st. and 8th ave, naturally bringing more customers for the retail stores located on the ground floor.

PUJIANG TOURIST VILLA “ART + LANDSCAPE” SHANGHAI, CHINA
EUNJEE HONG FALL2014 PENNDESIGN
PENNDESIGN / FALL 2014 CRIT / VALERIO MORABITO
Shanghai, the largest city by population in China, has gone through a rapid economic growth for the last 30 years. In the concerns of pollutions from such enormous industrial and commercial developments, Shanghai Municipal Government announces its “The Planning of Basic Ecological Network in Shanghai” in 2012. The air is hard to breathe and there is hardly any place for the Shanghai resident to rest in nature. The goal is to create large‐scale recreational spaces and ecological environment based on suburban park system. A total of 21 suburban parks have been defined, with total area of 400 km2. In Phase I, five parks are scheduled to be designed including Pujiang Suburban park. It is the closest one in distance from the Shanghai City. The park is divided into six zones: Tourist village, Forest Resort, Cultural Theme Park, Waterfront Town, Agricultural Tourism, and Watertown Resort. Students are given one zone which they can develop in depth. The government also demands each park to have differentiated characteristic of its own. Pujiang Suburban park is designated as a park where art meets landscape. Students are to choose any type of art piece in which they can analyze, extract, and reinterpret to design the park. In this project, impressionism is chosen for the program of Tourist Village.

A mapping of the Pujiang Suburban Park with a design concept of art movement, “impressionism.” The site is pixelized using the extension lines of surrounding blocks and builldings, and then filled with different landscape elements. The park, therefore, shares same rhythm with its surrounding urban fabric in scale, yet provides a unique identity of its own for its blending of different lanscape.
