01 MONTREAL DOMESTIC TERMINAL II AVITATION DESIGN
Dorval, Canada 4th Year Spring 2019 Partner: Melissa Watson Prof: Kapila Silva In the last few decades, Montreal has seen positive economic and population growth. Montreal’s strong economy has supported growth in all trades including, commerce, aerospace, transport, finance, pharmaceuticals, technology, design, education, art, culture, tourism, food, fashion, gaming, film and world affairs. Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport (YUL) serves as Montreal’s major international passenger travel hub. YUL is a hub to Air Canada and Air Transat and has been ranked the third busiest airport in Canada having served 18.16 million passengers in 2017. To serve the increasing demands for international travel, YUL is proposing separating all domestic and international flight traffic. YUL is proposing an Architectural Services Agreement for the design and construction of a new 12-gate regional terminal. Montreal Domestic Terminal 2 is a new terminal designed to create a new front door for the city that has both a historical and cultural sense of place that is uniquely Montreal through its materiality and vernacular influenced structure and form. We sought to create a design that incorporated as much intuitive wayfinding as possible to help alleviate the stress that comes with traveling in an airport. The shape of the terminal, material choices, natural daylighting (phototropism), and signage are some of the various wayfinding techniques that we employed. Finally, we wanted to maximize the function and connection to the existing terminal. By creating both an airside and landside connection, we are able to serve more than the 12 gates alloted in the program , helping to create a better passenger experience overall.

01 EXISITING CONDITIONS The current Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport (YUL) is an international hub with a growing presence in the Canadian provinces, serving 18 million passengers in 2017 alone. The current airport configuration houses flights in three distinct zones: trans-border, international, and domestic areas. In analysis, the airport accommodates for departing, arriving, and transfer traffic amongst these three zones, but is in need of more space to adapt to growing travel rates and to improve the passenger experience. To serve passengers, there are many on-site facilities surrounding the terminal including a hotel, car rental offices, satellite and adjacent parking lots, and airport maintenance buildings. After studying the existing terminal in detail, we decided that the current configuration was not suitable for intuitive wayfinding and that it did not accurately represent the city of Montreal as well as it could. We saw this as an opportunity to improve upon these few flaws as well as assist in some through connections to the existing terminal. Some of the aspects that we looked to draw upon were the skylight features that let in ample natural light and the large curtain walls in the front of the terminal that allowed transparency.

SITE The chosen area for the site was given to us by Corgan, and it was suggested that the southern corner of the site was open , as a golf course had just been demolished and there were only a few maintenance parking lots and sheds in the area. The buildable area was found through a series of setbacks based on saftey distances such as wing to wing span for gates and distances from the taxi lanes, as well as the highway. One challenge that we faced was the lower pier cutting into our buildable area, but we were able to figure out the correct setback and fit our terminal. The bridge connections help to conceal an on site air handling plant that services both the existing and new terminals. The southern most part of the site is used for geothermal bores for raidiant heating, and a snow depot for radiant cooling.

05 CONSTRUCTION In reflecting Montreal architecture clearly in our terminal design, we sought to utilize materials native to the country and sensible in constructibility. Consideration was given to levels of transparency, texture, acoustic analysis, and overall atmosphere in culmination. In the development of our structural grid, we wanted the spaces to feel as open as possible, using as few columns as necessary. After developing the structural grid, we decided to utilize steel construction to meet the demands of the long spans in the terminal. Each rib structure is a moment frame, addressing both the lateral and gravity loads. To further support the main structure, two 15’ deep spines run along the center axis. Secondary truss members complete the construction, and are exposed in atrium spaces to express the structure. Enclosing the steel structure with wood cladding first fills the terminal with warmth. Within the roof structure, perforated plastic ceiling panels are implemented along concourse pathways, while a transparent ETFE layer is utilized in atrium cores to allow natural daylight to enter the space for intuitive wayfinding. Smaller details of exposed steel facets and greenery planters bring added definition and color to the terminal space.

02 WEST BOTTOMS HYPERLOOP STATION TRANSPORTATION DESIGN Kansas City, MO 5th Year Spring 2020 Partners: Brad Kreuger + Jon Lelek Profs: Peter Broeder + Matt Keys As the sharing economy becomes more and more prevalent in our everyday lives, one of the larges sectors that could have an impact on urban design is transportation. A new mode of public transportation such as the Hyperloop would allow for cities to share goods at an even higher rate. This project explores a theoretical Hyperloop Station in the West Bottoms as a potential catalyst for growth For centuries, the West Bottoms was one of the centers of industry in the Kansas City area. It was home to the first Union Station for the area, as well as the 12th Street Viaduct that helped connect the bottoms to the downtown at the time. After it fell into an industrial depression, it has since been mostly abandoned. The bottoms is now home to many artists and creatives, as well as many industrial buildings. The rugged brick jungle has become a haven for these very eclectic people to thrive in. Informal urbanism is the main way people connect - with flea markets and antique shops being two of the main attractions. The Hyperloop Station and proposed masterplan seek to keep the authenticity of the West Bottoms, while repairing the broken connections to the area today. The Station would be a major hub for connective public transportation, as well as a community market and gathering place where artisans and farmers alike can sell and show off their goods. The station would allow people from St. Louis and Denver and Kansas City to connect in a way that they were never able to before. The grand nature of the station is meant to evoke the old nostalgic feeling of travel and excitement that came with seeing a new city for the first time.
01 SITE CONTEXT The West Bottoms is home to many opportunities for growth with many buildings ready for adaptive reuse with the current lack of development. Many of the established business is centered around industry and the automotive field.
01. EXISTING TYPOLOGY

02. PUBLIC REALM
Currently, the West Bottoms lacks vehicular connection to the rest of the KC area - a problem that is enhanced by the geographic isolation created by a large hill. The two points of access are Beardsley to the North, and 12th St. Viaduct.

03 I-70 NORTH LOOP URBAN INFILL VENUE DESIGN & URBAN MASTER PLAN Kansas City, MO 4th Year Fall 2018 Individual Project Profs. Peter Broeder & Matt Keys
Kansas City is split into many unique and vibrant districts. An unused stretch of highway I-70 cuts the downtown area from the River Market, creating a divide of two of the most prominent districts in the city. Studies have shown that this stretch of highway could be rerouted and turned into a new urban development. This project took a three step approach to solving this problem: First a masterplan, second a 5,000 seat multi -use venue, and third, the overall living experience. The new masterplan is created to serve an urban community, helping to solve some of the areas problems with a lack of activity due to most of the area being a place that people only commute to and from work. The community is planned from a passive to active standpoint with the residential section and venue section anchoring the ends of the development. Amenities such as a grocery store, pharmacy, and maker space have been added to not only to accommodate the people living within the new district, but to the people of the River Market and Downtown districts as well. The venue is an opportunity to bring back an NBA team to the KC area. With the proximity to the already established Sprint Center, this new 5,000 seat venue would house practice facilities as well as a place for the G-League associate to play. The multi use venue would also have offices for the coaching staff and trainers, as well as offices for the corporate sponsors that have a campus located within the district development. To create a vibrant place for the community, all concessions are located outside of the venue itself on a raised deck, creating a concessions village that can be used on game days and off days.

01 EXISITING CONDITIONS To get familiar with the site, our studio went out and interviewed some residents of the River Market and Financial District to see what they felt was lacking, what they enjoyed, and what they thought about a possible new development. The people felt that they needed more green spaces and places to park, as well as things like a grocery store that would make their lives more convenient. They enjoyed the walkability and scale of the River Market, and the community feel that was created when the actual Market was in use during the weekends. As the market filled on the weekends, though, there were problems of overcrowding. When walking around the site, the main problem we saw was a lack of activity due to the fact that not many people lived in the area, most were commuters coming to work in the city. The masterplan proposal looks to create an urban community that will not only create a new exciting district, but also activate some of the underutilized areas of Kansas City.

FINANCIAL DISTRICT
Kansas City has many unique districts that all have their own sense of individuality. One of my first steps in evaluating the existing conditions was to look at what the main connections between some of these districts across the site may be. This helped to decide what the most important through streets to keep may be in the existing site.

02 BUILDING TYPOLOGY To understand the urban fabric of the site, an analysis of existing building types around the area was conducted. The parcels were divided into private, public, and mixed spaces. Seeing what pieces made up the existing fabric allowed for a more detailed and informed infill between the two largely different districs - The River Market and Financial District.

A major factor in any new masterplan is the walkability of the area. Examining a quarter mile radius from the site for the types and ammount of exisiting ammenities was key in determining what types of infill would be needed. The major ammenities looked at were parking, bars/nightlife, restaurants, and green spaces.

The residential zone is located near the existing residential area of the River Market, creating a connection between the communities. The new development will offer a grocery store, pharmacy, and other basic needs that the River Market currently lacks for its residents. It is located to the East because there is less existing activity, creating a more family friendly environment.

03 VENUE: A NEW HOME FOR THE NBA When exploring the masterplan, with the proximity of the Sprint Center, there was an opportunity to theoretically bring an NBA team back to KC. The new 5,000 seat venue would house the G-League affiliate of the NBA team that would play in the Sprint Center. The venue is attached to a training and practice facility that makes up a podium level and outdoor deck for the main venue. Restaurants and office buildings are stacked around the outer edge of the podium level to create a dynamic, lively area that can double as an outdoor concourse and plaza area to watch events. The corporate campus would be leased to the sponsor of the NBA team, and allow for an urban development that could bring revenue to the city through a new sports franchise. The Venue is made of a perforated corten panel that materializes into two large video boards over each plaza, alluding to the brick buildings that liter the nearby area.

04 MUSEUM OF ENDANGERED BIRDS MUSEUM DESIGN AND PROGRAMMING Dallas, Texas 3rd Year Fall 2017 Individual Project Prof. Kapila Silva
There are over 400 species of endangered birds in the world today, and there has been at least one go extinct ever year for the last 100 years. Most, if not all of the causes are man made and affect not only aviary life, but our quality of life in general is at stake from our actions and we must find a way to fix these things. The prompt of this project was to chose something endangered and create a museum that either reflected this change or celebrated what was endangered. The site is located in the famed Dallas Arts District, home to some of the best museums in the country. The Museum of Endangered Aviary Life seeks to do both by taking the user on a journey from what life would be without birds, to ways we can help fix the problems we are causing. The form is inspired by the fluid motion and flight patterns that are natural to most birds, and the exterior perforated metal skin is meant to mimic feathers. The glulam arches and tree like columns are allusions to the forest that many birds build their homes in. The beginning gallery is called the extinction gallery, and sound dampened ramp that lets the visitor experience what life would be like if there were no birds to help spread pollination or make noise we are so used to hearing. The galleries are located on split levels and have ramps that climb up the side, spiraling towards the end gallery, a hanging glass enclosure that overlooks the journey. The galleries wrap around the central plaza space like a nest, enclosing the visitor inside. The central space is used for events and provides a place where people can come together to talk about what they have seen after their journey.

01 EXISITING CONDITIONS The site of the project was located in the Art’s District, an up and coming cultural hub located in central downtown Dallas. The main spine of the district is Flora Street, an extremely pedestrian friendly street that encourages walking and exploration around the area. The wide sidewalks, many pockets to sit and enjoy the nice weather, and urban parks all contribute to the activity of the area. When visiting Dallas early in the semester we got to experience touring many of the wellknown destinations in the Art’s District such as the Nasher Sculpture Center, Windspear Opera House, and Wyly Theatre, as well as the Kimbrell Art Museum and Museum of Modern Art in Fort Worth. Along with learning how a museum should function, these buildings were very inspiring to visit and architecturally explore. We were able to see first hand how different galleries were arranged or sequenced, and could decide what we thought worked and didn’t along with various types of displays and technologies. Another valuable lesson was being able to see the detailing and material selections that the architects used to enhance the experience for their visitors.

The main structure of the museum is a concrete shell that wraps around the base, creating a shear wall that helps work against gravity and lateral loads. The roof structure is supported by glulam arches that are connected with a large ring beam. To support the large spans, a secondary system of tree columns is used to support the middle points. The final Preservation Gallery is suspended by a cable system that is supported by the secondary columns and glulam beams above. One of the interesting architectural details is the woven wooden wall that creates the nest-like central space. The roof has a layer of glass that is separated from the glulam beams to expose the structure and warm wood tones. Perforated metal panels sit atop the assembly diffusing the harsh light and letting in a natural light that makes the space feel airy or like the visitor is in the clouds.

05 DIGITAL FABRICATION GRASSHOPPER CASE STUDIES Lawrence, KS 4th Year Spring 2019 Individual Projects Prof. Kadim Alasady
Grasshopper and parametric modeling are becoming more and more prevalent in the field of architecture, and this class helped explore some of the possibilities grasshopper and rhino could be combined to create. The goal of the projects was to create an artifact in grasshopper that could then be taken from Rhino and exported and fabricated. During class time, we explored some of the more technical aspects of the program, figuring out how to take data from excel sheets and use them to model structures solely within grasshopper from a few lines in rhino. We also learned how some engineers and architects work together to create excel sheets from grasshopper that they feed to Revit to create skyscrapers and other corporate buildings. The three projects shown focus on using three different fabrication techniques, the CNC machine, the laser cutter, and the 3D printer. We are fortunate to be able to access and have lab techs with experience operating each of these machines. The first project was creating an extruded and somehow morphed surface that could be fed to the 3D printer. The next project focused on creating a waffle structure in grasshopper from a surface and then feeding the pieces into the laser cutter to be modeled. The last project was the CNC machine and the prompt was to create some kind of surface pattern. This class was a good exploration into a program I was not familiar with before, but that is becoming more and more useful in the industry. Overall this class helped me to see the value in parametric modeling and the possibilities it brings, but also about how things can be fabricated in many ways that are effective.
