“Architecture forms a vital link between people and their surroundings. It acts as a gentle buffer between the fragility of human existence and the vast world outside. How different people choose to build connections in their environment essentially defines those societies and their relationships to conditions around them.”
- Kengo Kuma
1 ASCEND COMMONS Location: The University of Oklahoma Instructor: Marjorie Callahan Project Duration: 1 Semester
From its founding in 1890 The University of Oklahoma has created and continued to place student housing on its outskirts in parallel to its expansion. The design project strives to create a brand-new housing opportunity dedicated towards fine arts majors in the middle of a dense campus. In order to resolve site, program, and circulation issues, a multi-functional student common space is introduced, identifying itself with a crimson-colored social staircase. Images: Existing site with project boundary and the rendering implementation of social space/ gallery.

DEC I P H ER I N G T HE S I T E AND I TS ISSUE S
At any time of the day a line of university students can be seen walking towards the Physical Science Center (PSC)
toward
their
classes.
New design strives to resolve underlying questions and issues of the site:
1.
Identifying campus buildings and their program
Building usa ge by students, post school hours
Building usage by students, school hours
Identification of major site approach
Celebrate and resolve circulation and elevation change to the PSC
2.
Provide healthy, social, and study spaces for students
3.
Create a place of destination that connects fine arts buildings to the rest of campus.
4.
Fit itself with the surrounding buildings and with the overall campus vernacular.

2 NORMAN WELLNESS Location: Norman, Oklahoma Instructor: Daniel Butko Project Duration: 1 Semester Fall 2022
The City of Norman today continues to expand north and west towards the interstate, leaving its historic and central sector underdeveloped and undermined. Norman Wellness focuses on the betterment and wellbeing of the surrounding community through its thoughtful program, engaging spaces, and sustainable design that align with the principles of Framework for Design Excellence (COTE). Images: gymnasium rendering and proposed project overlaid on existing site.

The transfer of the Norman Public Library has left the site (the old parking lot) underutilized. Site research displayed many different identities and places of destination in its surrounding, resulting with design inspiration.

SITE CONTEXT
Circulation mapping (left) investigated by sketching and layering to determine ideal building approach.
Studies under Space Syntax displayed that the site had a strong visual interconnectivity with Andrews Park.
Concepts and massing ideas further explored ways to retain visual transparency, safety, and clear site access while considering major programmatic component s such as the gymnasium and public housing.

The spaces of public and private program are divided by each “wing”, coming off from a central core. The positioning of the building along with the visual connectivity of the outdoor space all contribute to the safety and the well-being of the users.
COU RTYA R D - Gabion walls create a boundary between the courtyard space and the parking lot. Existing site material is reused by crushing concrete as aggregate material.

Annual Sunlight Exposure (ASE) The gymnasium was susceptible to excessive solar glare. Solutions included decreasing vertical fin spacings on the West facade and adding fritted glazing on the East side.
Solar Radiation Potential The radiation map shows optimal locations on the roof for potential photovoltaics. The saw-cut roof design with an angle of 55 degrees further optimizes the solar panels.
Spatial Daylight Autonomy (SDA) With the help of full glazing on the East and West sides along with skylights, the gymnasium receives sufficient daylight for 91% of the day.

Clerestory further opens up the lobby space for natural lighting.
Ducts spread from the central core of the building.
Inserting ducts through the truss structure lowers the gym ceiling height.
Structural CLT and glu-lam post and beam are sourced locally from Arkansas.
The 8 apartment rooms use minisplits for energy efficiency.
The rain garden controls and collects site water runoff into an underground cistern.
Skylights on the north side allow diffuse lighting into the gymnasium.
Modular apartments units allow for efficient construction.
PV panels are positioned at an optimal angle and direction to generate electricity for the building.
Fritted low e glazing lowers solar heat gain.
Public lobby spaces remain open for community interaction and social activity.
3 LA TORRE MUSEO Location: Rome, Italy Instructor: Beatrice Bruscoli Project Duration: 1 Semester, Spring 2022 Collaborators: Ian Gray, Matthew Mullin All Images/Sketches Completed by Hiroki Mishima
As the urban morphology, landscape, and architecture closely relate to one another, present-day Rome holds a unique and strong identity as a city. Respecting this attitude, the project seeks to create public opportunities for the surrounding community as well a museum of Rome that will generate life once again to a historic but unused site. Images: rendering of entry and initial and process sketches.

Located in the heart of the Trastevere neighborhood, the site holds its boundaries with the historical Aurelian wall and the Tiber river on its north and its east. Existing buildings are reutilized as commercial spaces in addition to an entry for a new museum. The new elevated walkway physically and metaphorically links history (Aurelian Wall) with the present (Tower) for the public to experience and enjoy.

Public spaces are kept aboveground as private program are nested below or within. As one goes underground through the museum of Rome, they are able to uncover and explore the city’s rich history, culture, and beauty. The tower at the end then functions as the final exhibition space, allowing people to observe the city in its present-day form.
