A PLACE FOR COMMUNITY

SPRING 2021

YEAR III

STEPS AWAY FROM THE BUSY DOWNTOWN OF MASSACHUSETTS STREET, THIS MIXED USE MULTI-MODAL HUB SERVES TO BOTH EXTEND THE BUSINESS DISTRICT AND CONNECT IT WITH THE RESIDENTIAL STREETS BEYOND. IT IS THIS CONNECTION THAT WAS THE CATALYST FOR MY INSPIRATION, LEADING ME TO THINK OF THE SURROUNDING SITE AND BUILDINGS. WHAT WERE THEY MADE OF? WHEN WERE THEY BUILT? IS THERE A UNIFYING STYLE IN THE SURROUNDING BUILDINGS? WHAT GREENSPACE WAS NEARBY? WAS THE SITE LOUD? QUIET? WITH HEAVY TRAFFIC? WHAT COMPONENTS OR AMENITIES WERE MISSING FROM THE SURROUNDING AREA, AND HOW COULD I PROVIDE THEM?

I TOOK INSPIRATION FROM DISTINCT LOCAL SOURCES: THE LAWRENCE PUBLIC LIBRARY, A LOCAL LANDMARK, THE OLD POLICE STATION ON 8TH, WHICH IS NOW A SENIOR RESOURCE CENTER, AND THE GLASS DISPLAY WINDOWS THAT LINE MASS STREET. THE BUILDING’S FUNCTION AS A MIXED MODAL HUB IS A WELCOME ADDITION TO THE DOWNTOWN AREA. IT WILL PROVIDE SEVERAL FUNCTIONS, INCLUDING A BUS DEPOT, BIKE SHARE AREA, AND OTHER COMMUNITY FUNCTIONS SUCH AS A CAFE, GROCERY STORE, RETAIL SPACES, WORK OFFICES, AND A FEW APARTMENTS.

WHENEVER I FIND MYSELF WALKING AROUND DOWNTOWN, I AM ALWAYS ENAMORED BY THE SHOP WINDOW DISPLAYS THAT ARE QUINTESSENTIAL OF SMALL TOWN AMERICA. WHETHER ADVERTISING FOOD, FUN, CLOTHES OR EVEN KITTENS, I FIND MYSELF BEING DRAWN INTO SHOPS AS IF BY MAGNET. I CHOSE TO REPLICATE THIS CONCEPT IN MY OWN BUILDING BY LOCATING ALL THE RETAIL SPACES ALONG THE STREET SIDE TO CREATE A MULTI-STORY GLASS DISPLAY WINDOW.

FALL 2021 YEAR IV

PARTNER PROJECT

IN THE HEART OF DOWNTOWN LAWRENCE LIES AN ABANDONED BUILDING NEAR THE CORNER OF 9TH STREET AND MASSACHUSETTS. THIS BUILDING, SITED FOR REDEVELOPMENT BY THE DEPARTMENT OF URBAN PLANNING, HAS BEEN TURNED IN TO A MODERN MIXED USE BUILDING WITH A COFFEE SHOP ON THE FIRST FLOOR AND SEVERAL SMALL APARTMENTS ABOVE. AS THE PEDESTRIAN PASSES BY OUR SITE, THEY WILL SEE A MODERN AND FRESH FAÇADE THAT BREAKS ALL THE PRECONCEIVED NOTIONS OF WHAT A BUILDING IN A HISTORIC DISTRICT SHOULD LOOK LIKE. WHERE MOST BUILDINGS ARE TWO OR THREE STORIES, OURS MIRRORS THE BANK BUILDING A COUPLE BLOCKS DOWN AT SIX; WHERE OTHER BUILDINGS CLING TO AN ESTABLISHED STREET WALL, OURS DELIBERATELY CREATES A VERY ENGAGING AND ENERGETIC THREE DIMENSIONAL SHAPE—A CONCEPT WE NAMED “PUSH AND PULL”. LASTLY, INSTEAD OF THE USUAL OPAQUE BRICK, WE HAVE AN ABUNDANCE OF TRANSPARENCY ACCENTED WITH WHITE STEEL—IN THE FORM OF OPERABLE GLASS DOORS, FROSTED GLASS WINDOWS, GRIDDED CURTAIN WALLS, AND PERFORATED STEEL SCREENS.

A PLACE FOR JUSTICE

SPRING 2021 YEAR IV

PARTNER PROJECT

THE PEOPLE OF TULSA HAVE HAD A COMPLICATED RELATIONSHIP WITH JUSTICE. IN A TOWN THAT HAS SEEN ITS FAIR SHARE OF RACIAL VIOLENCE, POLARIZED CITIZENS AND GENERAL UNREST, THE PEOPLE HAVE NOT ALWAYS HAD THE BEST OPINIONS OF LAW ENFORCEMENT SYSTEM. WE WERE TASKED WITH CHANGING THE NARRATIVE OF JUSTICE FROM A PURELY PUNITIVE SYSTEM TO ONE OF RESTORATION AND HOLISTIC COMMUNITY GROWTH. A HEFTY ASK FOR ONE COURTHOUSE. MY PARTNER AND I ANSWERED THIS ASK BY CREATING A SUM OF PARTS. CIRCLES, SYMBOLS OF EQUALITY, ARE BOUND TOGETHER BY ONE COMMON THREAD OF COMMUNITY. INSPIRED BY SCULPTURE AND EXECUTED TO MAXIMIZE AN INTERIOR ASSEMBLY SPACE, OUR COURTHOUSE PRIZES NATURAL LIGHT THROUGH AN ORGANIC TRANSLUCENT ROOF, AND DRAMATIC CURVES CREATE OUTDOOR SPACES FOR RESTORATION AND COMMUNICATION THAT NESTLE THE BUILDING.
