Portfolio V.03 Evan Sack | 2019
Architectural Designer/Fabricator
WELCOME My name is Evan Sack and I am a student studying Architecture at the University of Oklahoma. I have a passion for the creative activation of space, and experimenting in various methods of fabrication. This portfolio is a display of work spanning between the realms of architecture and design, tied together by the expression of space at a variety of scales. This assembly is meant to detail my education in architecture thus far, and also share the knowledge I obtained through the process. The hope is that this body of work will inspire others to be inventive in ways that push personal boundaries of understanding and creativity. Please enjoy!

University Arts and Education Residency Design IX | Fall 2018
Prof. Andres Cavieres, PhD The University Research Campus represents a wealth of potential for groundbreaking innova-tion; with world renowned research resources – NOAA, The Stephenson Research Center’s, et al – The University of Oklahoma has surely provided the academic facilities necessary to foster this growth and development. In its current state, The University Research Campus fails to achieve its full potential due to a lack of culture or sense of place that would
8
make long-term investment in the cam-pus equitable for the businesses it seeks to attract. This project acts as part of the larger proposed so-lution by acting twofold: first, by establishing a wayfinding or landmarking system that improves the campus image, and second, by envigorating research and education in the arts to match the caliber of existing disciplines on the campus.

The first conception of the landmarking system came as a response the remarkably horizontal perception of the space despite significant grade changes across its entirety. Proposing highly vertical outpost towers acts not only to create highly recognizable figures in an otherwise horizontal landscape, but also leverages the larger organization of the masterplan to give the artists
E VA N S AC K
living in these towers greater proximity to the facilities whose research they seek to engage. It became clear through discus-sions with professors in the arts and historical movements such as Experiments in Art and Technology and Land Art that the discipline necessitates engagement with outside sources which then reinforces embedding the artists within the whole campus.

ARTS DISTRICT CORRIDOR 16
P O R T F O L I O V. 0 3
This leads to the second half of the solutions conception which is to integrate the arts into the campus, rather than enforce the arts on the campus. The aforementioned art movements as well as the works of Christo and Jeanne-Claude, Olafur Eliasson, and other contemporary artists indicate that art can be just as rigorous and scientific a process as the
E VA N S AC K
traditional hard sciences, sometimes even more-so. This leaves only the possibility that the arts are a vital part of ensuring a well-rounded re-search campus, while also playing an equally vital role in the collection, analysis, and dissemination of data that will enhance the lives of generations to come.

The Plaza Design VIII | Spring 2018 Prof. Khosrow Bozorgi, PhD
Home to The University of Oklahoma, Norman is defined largely by the diverse and complex student body. The University attracts educated minds from across the globe and is, as such, a hub for global culture. However, despite its far reaching population, the University finds itself lacking a center for the arts to match the grandeur of
18
its constituency. Naturally, this facility is to be located close to other cultural centers such as the Sam Noble Natural History Museum and Lloyd Noble Center. At the corner of Chataqua and Imhoff, The Plaza helps to establish an architectural presence on the corner to match the surrounding context.

The facility is pulled back from both streets to establish a plaza outside that then pours into the building and up the grand atrium space. This internal plaza and namesake for the facility helps to organize and connect the three auditorium spaces, and establishes a social mixing chamber that pulls patrons through the space. This grand procession
leads to a special moment where the facility establishes a dialogue with the Sam Noble Museum across the protected park area that lies between. This relationship combined with the programatic and interactive provisions of the overall space will provide an excellent opportunity for cultural enrichment and education for a myriad of users.

The Stacks found inspiration from its location. The city grew from the river, and as the river drops off sediment, which builds up the land, it also brought people and ideas. The city was settled in ever expanding layers all rich with culture. This layering is represented in The Stacks where each ribbon brings a distinct character to the overall district. The connect layer stitches Downtown with the Banks.
The learn layer focuses on community enrichment. The live layer addresses healthy lifestyles of the community. The play layer encourages interaction with nature. The Stacks represents a vision to cultivate the existing culture and history of Cincinnati through the poetic expression of community enrichment that The Banks already has to offer.

The Pearl District, a heritage of community improvement, the need for water management, and culture lay the backdrop for the development of collective as a living-working facility. This development has responded by fostering community, promoting walkability, diversifying living style, and providing a set of values for future development. Collective integrates

the existing building and vernacular with a ribbon of programming above. The courtyard is an inviting space that is also functional.

The Architects Chair FabLab Tulsa | Summer 2015

An architects responsibility is to effectively program space that will hopefully create desirable experiences for the end user. The most important of these experiences to design then would be the high traffic, heavy use, everyday objects. Like most students in this field, I find that my workstation can have a profound impact on my mood and productivity. After my first year of studio, I had developed techniques for organizing the chaos on my desk, but spending long hours in the studio was still wholly uncomfortable. The
task then became a summers worth of workflow analysis and program development on the small scale to create a chair that optimized comfort and productivity. There was a careful balance in prototyping to ensure working for long hours would not be physically difficult, but simultaneously the chair would not be a “relaxing� kind of comfortable. The project culminated in a full scale production during my internship with FabLab that was made possible with digital fabrication technologies.

The presentation of food is important for establishing the experience of eating, even going so far as to enhance our perception of tastes and smells. Usually reserved for high end eating experiences, this project looked at non-perishable foods as a genesis point for the design. Starting

with shelled peanuts, this tray looks to highlight the process of cracking and eating, particularly the various textures. This became an opportunity to explore parametric design and the limits of CNC milling.
