Project Description

SUBLIME OF HORROR ARCHITECTURE


This project explores the beauty of abandoned infrastructure, not only about the beauty of their highly engineered structure and their embodied histor y but also about their potential functions in the future and about utilizing their strong formal statement. In this project, the design needs an alternative method. Rather than Modernist “form follows function,” which had already happened as engineers first designed and constructed the site, “function follows form” will be the suitable design strategy so that the alreadypower ful industrial formal language can be revitalized for new programs and new visitors. 5

Project Abstract

8

SUBLIME OF HORROR ARCHITECTURE


This project is to explore and find a solution for the decommissioned Rancho Seco Nuclear Power Plant to be attractive to the public. The Rancho Seco Nuclear Power Plant was put in operation in 1974 to produce electricity for Sacramento County. However, the nuclear power plant had experienced several malfunctions that resulted in leaking accidents. This hazardous situation provoked a lot of discussions and debate on energy and sustainability. Eventually, this nuclear power plant was fully decommissioned in 2009. Today af ter all energy generating equipment has been removed, the lef t structure, which was designed to adapt to the machine scale, is much oversized compared to the human scale. These huge empty infrastructures create a sense of fear among visitors. Never theless, the proposed architectural solution, which is to introduce new recreational, conventional, educational, commercial, and research programs to the site and expand existing energy production programs, provides a design direction to break down the huge and “un-human-friendly� scale to fit human occupation. Programs include green economy matrix for business, energy and climate research labs for science, conference centers for politics, Exploratorium and museums for education, and bicycling and camping for recreation. Integrating these programs with architecture as an intermediate will create a chance for people from dif ferent disciplines to work together to find out the ultimate sustainable solutions for the problems we have now. 9

SUBLIME OF HORROR ARCHITECTURE


CHAPTER ONE

Nuclear energy has been both celebrated and criticized ever since it was discovered. The radioactive material uranium was discovered in 1789, but it was not until 1895 that scientists first noticed nuclear radiation, which then lead to the utilization of nuclear energy around the world. The X-ray, as a type of nuclear energy, has brought people many benefits, especially in life science where nuclear radiation imaging is used. However, as the study of atomic energy advanced through time, nuclear fission brought about the nuclear bomb. This bursting form of nuclear energy, unlike the subtle radiation in medical experiments, shocked the world with the bombings in Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War II, which lef t a long-lasting horrifying impression that still scares people today. On the other hand, our ability to control the energy generating process of nuclear energy has progressed and has led to the use of nuclear power plants throughout the world. 13

SUBLIME OF HORROR ARCHITECTURE

Since the nuclear energy generating process produces a large amount of heat that requires an enormous body of water to cool down the system, huge cooling towers are constructed to cool down the heated water before releasing it into the environment. Cooling towers have become par t of the nuclear power plant typology, and they have come to be an icon of nuclear power plants. During the Cold War period, the U.S. and the Soviet Union competed to construct nuclear-powered electricity generators to suppor t their economic growths and militar y developments. Meanwhile, in the 1960s and 1970s, due to the oil and coal crisis, countries like the U.S. aimed to become energy independent. Along with the increasing awareness all over the world that the pollutions from fossil fuel plants damaged the environment, people began to notice how “environmental-friendly” nuclear power plants were as they produced much less air pollution than fossil fuel plants during the power generating process. To conclude, nuclear power plant construction companies experienced a business boost because of all these factors. However, in 1979, the Three Mile Island’s nuclear power plant had an accident. People identified this accident as an indicator of the meltdown of the nuclear industr y in the U.S. People came to realize the heavy construction of nuclear power plants was not sustainable at all. Additionally, the consequences of a failing nuclear power plant were totally unbearable no matter what. The cooling towers, the representation of nuclear power plants, warn people about the danger of nuclear energy and remind people about the horror of accidents. Despite the debates about whether nuclear energy is benefiting human society or harming it, and whether nuclear energy should be considered as green energy or not, the image of nuclear power plant architecture can be identified as a new categor y of architecture: horror architecture. Horror architecture features a few unique characteristics: enormous scale (machine scale), massive but simple volumes, highly secured sites, and specialized original functions that were designed for cer tain dangerous operations. 14


CHAPTER ONE

This thesis is to exploit the horror architecture and to propose a design to shif t the ideology of “horror” to “sublime” so that the horror architecture can be welcoming to the general public, rather than specialized groups of people. The chosen site Rancho Seco Nuclear Power Plant was first opened in 1974, when in this year the Arab nations’ oil embargo against the U.S. of ficially ended. Sacramento County put Rancho Seco Nuclear Power Plant into operation to provide electricity for the increasing number of residents. The Power Plant was decommissioned in 2009. Today this industrial area is no longer using uranium to produce electricity, the heavy structures are lef t empty and programless. The proposed revitalization includes many dif ferent programs that relate to sustainability, adaptability, and “sublimity”. By introducing new programs to the site and new perspectives to look at the site, the huge and un-humanfriendly scale can be broken down for human occupation.

CITATION 22

Chairman/Chief Scientist of the Rocky Mountain Institute. Advocates "soft energy paths," limit Nuclear Power "Nuclear power is the only energy source where mishap or malice can kill so many people so far away; the only one whose ingredients can help make and hide nuclear bombs; the only climate solution that substitutes proliferation, accident, and high-level radioactive waste dangers. Indeed, nuclear plants are so slow and costly to build that they reduce and retard climate protection"
